LOL. I thought that would have been obvious. I believe scripture represents God as three distinct persons who function in triadic harmony. I suppose now, the burden of proof is on me.

I was about to get into John 1. I think this may answer some of your questions.

I promise you, I am not going to try to trap you. We both know where we stand on our respective positions. All I am trying to do is show you why I hold the position I do and perhaps get you to consider some points you may have never before considered.

No, but we will get to that later. There is a lot to cover between here and there.

Are you willing to continue to follow me in this? There are a lot of things that I think you will find interesting. BTW, I am John Doe, I just had my name put on the avatar.

Of course it can. The question is, what do they share? As to your first question let's wait and see how scripture responds to this. We will get to that.

Was that too difficult a question for you?

Do you believe Jesus is God?

Usually, when someone rejects the idea of the trinity it is either because they do not believe in the deity of Christ and the person of the Holy Spirit or because they cannot conceive of the "One God" of Deut 4 as representing anything but a single numeric essence of being.

Let me begin by simply asking a question. Do you believe that Jesus and the Holy Spirit are God?

It defines not only their individuality but their individual function as well. These three distinct functions involve intelligent design, active cause, and organization. Let us consider each of these in terms of his respective position within the triadic structure and for the moment, refer to...

What I am trying to get you to consider is the fact that the presence of Jesus in the flesh did not rob heaven of the presence of God. Jesus still prayed to the Father. Both the Holy Spirit and the Father bore witness to Jesus as the Son of God at the baptism of Jesus. All three triadic...
