GOD or GODS? THE BIBLE SAYS...GODS.

I thank my opponent for responding and I will address his points At Mark 13:32, Jesus Christ said: "But of that day or that hour [of God's coming execution of judgment] no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." But if the Father and the Son are coequal, how could the Son be ignorant of things the Father knows? ‘Jesus had two natures,' some will answer. ‘Here he is speaking as a man.' And, yet, even if that were so, what about the "Holy Ghost"? If it is the third person of the Trinity, why does it not know? A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. And the "Holy Ghost" is part of the Trinitarian chain.-------- Jesus also was not omnipresent because he had to truly become man. This does not mean that he was not God but that he was limiting his power in his capacity as a man. Each person of God has a different function. I don’t like analogies because nothing captures it perfectly but it is similar to different parts in a body, but like I said it is far from perfect. The father and son are coequal but that doesn’t mean they all serve the same purpose. Bottom line, the 3-in-one monster conjured up by the Trinity is an unknowable being. The Trinity is confusion, and that is NOT of God, but of the devil.(See 1 Cor. 14: 33) In a sense the concept is unknowable to our comprehension but that is only due to the limit of our minds There is a lot we as humans don’t understand. We can know him without understanding how his essence works. Can you know someone without knowing fully how their body works or how they think? I would hope so. The members of the council may not have been able to fully understand the concept but they saw the connections in the scriptures that lead them to this view.1 Corinthians 14:33 simply states that God is a God of order and not chaos and the trinity is not chaotic, it is just beyond comprehension there is a difference.DefinitionsChaos-a state of utter confusion or disorder; a total lack oforganization or order. [1] Incomprehensible-impossible to understand or comprehend; unintelligible. [2] These verses prove only that Jesus and the Father are one in that no man can pluck the sheep out of either's hand. It does not at all state that Jesus is God's equal in everything. In fact the words of Jesus, " My Father, who gave them me is Greater than ALL...," in John 10:29 completely negates this claim, otherwise we are left with a contradiction just a sentence apart. All includes everyone even Jesus. There should be no question as John 8:58 reaffirms the trinity “JJesus said to them,"Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was,I am." [3] Jesus would not say that if he was not the same as the father, how could he a man have been there before Abraham? The Father is greater than all in glory as for one thing Jesus has been limited by his humanity while at the same time retaining his person hood of God. The Holy Spirit has his own function as well. True there was no word person to designate the parts of God but we needed a word that would begin to identify the different parts. It is not contradictory to the nature of God in the Bible because as I have pointed out, on multiple occasions in the Bible God says he is the only true God Jesus affirms this yet calls himself God. Therefore Jesus is the same as the father in as much as they are one being yet different “persons”. The best explanation of this can be found in the Athanasian Creed. [4] I know, it was a council that came up with this description, but they were only using what could be found in the scriptures to describe this nature of God that is so confusing. IN SHORT, GOD HIMSELF IS THE FATHER REVEALED; GOD HIMSELF IS THE CHRIST REVEALING; GOD HIMSELF IS THE HOLY SPIRIT ABIDING. I don’t see how this is a refutation of what I said. In fact my opponent seems to have refuted his own claim with this assertion. The claim that there was no word Person really doesn’t mean much when you consider that there are many concepts that can be inferred that are not expressly stated, we do this in philosophy and historic reading all the time. My opponent has not proved how the Bible says that there are in fact multiple Gods and not in fact one God. He has only placed his own assumptions onto what he thinks by his own understanding would makes sense for God to be. There cannot be multiple Gods and at the same time have God say "You shall have no other Gods". This is also not an argument about contradictions.
