I guess you really don't understand how contradicted you are here.
First you say you don't deny "there are two Persons".
Then you end with "they are the same Person".
So, you claim that "two Persons" are "the same Person".
I'll just let that sink in for a while.
Has it not been said that the doctrine of the Trinity is incomprehensible?
Don't try to change the subject and DODGE my point.
I don't think the Trinity is in ANY WAY "incomprehensible". That's just an excuse for those who can't or won't think deeply.
I have no problem understanding that there are 3 separate Persons who ALL have the exact same characteristics, attributes. That isn't even difficult to grasp.
Your theory cannot explain how 1 Person can sit at the "right hand of the Almighty". Huh? It takes 2 Persons to do that.
And it takes 2 Persons for one in heaven to speak to the other on earth.
In fact, it is ridiculous to view one Person praying to Himself. Jesus the Son prayed to His Father just before the crucifixion. He not only asked for something specific, but noted "not MY will, but YOURS be done".
If that is 1 Person talking to Himself, we have a very mental Savior.
And all you can do in defense is hide behind what "has been said" about the Trinity being incomprehensible.
I don't care who has said that. They just aren't thinking very deeply or at all. Just a bogus claim.
The same logic can be used when we consider that we have one God in three Persons.
You mean the same STUPID logic? No thanks.
How is He one God if He is three Persons?
Let me repeat: all 3 Persons have the exact same characteristics and attributes. They are co-equal. That is not deep at all. And it fully explains what your theory cannot explain and must hide behind the excuse of "incomprehensibility". Nonsense.
Is God not a Person, who identifies Himself as "I" (for example, Malachi 3:6)?
All 3 members of the Trinity are Persons. And they talk to each other, and sit beside each other. Your theory cannot comprehend that.
Can you answer me that?
And if you use Isaiah 55:10-11 to explain your viewpoint, I will just say that the same passage can be used to explain mine.
I don't need that passage. I have given you clear examples of the total nonsense of God being 1 Person.
It takes 2 people to talk to each other (unless you think talking to oneself isn't mental), and 2 people to sit beside each other.
And Jesus asking His Father (that DEMANDS 2 People) to remove the cup, but then saying "not MY will, but YOURS be done" absolutely proves they are separate Persons.
Again, a father cannot be his own son.
A son cannot be his own father.
Maybe in an insane world. But not in the real world. God is not insane. He does not talk to Himself. He talks to the other members of the Trinity or Godhead.
What you may think about it doesn't matter. The examples in Scripture prove they are separate and all you can do is mumble something about being "incomprehensible".
Maybe for you that is true, but not for me.
