The Father is the Holy Spirit - no, says trinitarianism.

The Son is the Holy Spirit - no, says trinitarianism.

The Father and the Son are both the Holy Spirit - no, says trinitarianism.
Trinitarianism is correct

The father will send the spirit. not himself
The spirit entered Jesus, not the father
The father and spirit sent Jesus

I don’t think trinitarianism is correct but I can agree with you that trinitarianism rejects the proposition which @theefaith accepted.

Thanks. Then you either fail to see that it isn’t the trinitarianism taught by the Catholic Church or you fail to believe the trinitarianism taught by the Catholic Church.

The Shield of the Trinity prohibits it.

How?

you said the spirit of the father and the son?

the spirit proceeds from the father and the son

Then the Holy Spirit isn’t the Father and the Holy Spirit isn’t the Son. Right?

It’s a fundamental tenet of trinitarianism not to confuse the persons.

I have thefaith on ignore. He is stuck in catholicism and can not listen to anyone..

I count at @theefaith as a friend. He’s “stuck in Catholicism” but he listens to me and to others.

It’s becoming ever more clear to me that you will resort to bearing false witness against those who don’t agree with you.

You’re beginning to lose my attention, which would be no great loss for either one of us.

which is why I have him on ignore.. I am sick of him trying to attach everything I say and not listening..

and PS. He does not listen to people unless they agree with him..

It’s becoming ever more clear to me that you will resort to bearing false witness against those who don’t agree with you.
Please show me where I have bore false witness??

You’re beginning to lose my attention, which would be no great loss for either one of us.
there you go trying to sidestep again.

I did not say he was the father or the son but of both

Let’s revisit the proposition I asked you about. I’ll bold the last phrase and underline the key word to draw greater attention to it.

God is the Father, Christ is the Word made flesh, and the Holy Spirit is both of them.

The proposition isn’t “of both of them” but rather “is both of them”.

The person who is teaching that has been forthright in saying that the proposition isn’t “Classic Trinity” - in other words, it isn’t the teaching of historical orthodox trinitarianism - which comes to us from the Roman Catholic Church.

i believe the ancient faith of the apostles acts 2:42 the HS proceeds from the father and the son, is worshipped and glorified
