The expression Trinitarianism means one who believes in the doctrine of the Trinity.  This is a title or way of identifying those who believe in the Trinity.  Some examples:  Mormons are called Mormons because of their beliefs in the book of Mormon; Jehovah's Witnesses have labeled themselves Jehovah's Witnesses, because they believe the only true name of God is Jehovah and that they are His witnesses.  Below will be some basic beliefs of what Trinitarians believe.
