 Review of The Trinity by Gordon Clark -NRA
Dr. Clark notes that the strong influence of idolatry and polytheism during Old Testament times necessitated an emphasis upon the unity of the One God of the people of Israel, and therefore the Old Testament nowhere explicitly teaches the formal doctrine of the triune nature of God.
This faulty definition, says Clark, led to the unorthodox position of Van Til "that God, that is, the whole Godhead, is one person." In saying this, Van Til sought to evade the charge of anti-trinitarians that the doctrine is self-contradictory because something cannot be both three and one at the same time.
Dr. Clark begins with a review of the classic space-time theory of individuation, which identifies a person by physical properties or location but is inadequate to define spiritual persons.

 IBRI Research Report #22 - GORDON CLARK'S EXTRAORDINARY VIEW OF MEN AND THINGS
Gordon Clark and Cornelius Van Til offer a very strong contrast in their respective views of “men and things.” Both men are presuppositionalists in the important sense that they begin their understanding of the world through the “eyes” of God’s revelation; they begin with what they cannot prove—namely, the Bible.
Although Gordon Clark is primarily concerned with theory of knowledge, he has also addressed in his writings the nature of “men and things.” Our concluding concern with Clark’s philosophical contribution to apologetics is primarily his view of the nature of persons, but also the more general implications of his epistemology for metaphysics.
Gordon Clark constructs a quite extraordinary view of men and things with the categoric refusal of empirically acquired knowledge—and he begins with epistemology.
