Isn't it funny how a thread that was created to show the "lighter side of TOL" has now turned into a religious debate?

Darby.That's the great thing about TOL. Threads morph no matter how hard people try to keep them from morphing.
This thread was created because I drove from Pittsburgh to Anchorage, and stopped and had dinner with Godrulz in Edmonton.
Now it's a thread about modalists.
I'm not a modalist. However, today was my last day in Alaska. I rode in a helicopter to a glacier. It was an amazing experience.

said I was different than other trinitarians?
You are impressing no one with your schooled words. From the words of an English teacher that I admire, and that is to speak so that others can understand you.There are nuanced theories and speculations, but we agree on the gist (same with kenosis understandings).
There is only one God. There are not three different persons, or three different anything when it comes to God. There are three, and the three are the same and in agreement.I am defining positively and negatively. The trinity is not 3 gods (that is Mormonism), but it is one God (nature) and 3 'divine persons' (not finite persons).
You confuse nature and person which even the creeds remind us not to do.

It is a debate site.
Religious debate is light. :chuckle: Thats why we come here --to relax.Isn't it funny how a thread that was created to show the "lighter side of TOL" has now turned into a religious debate?
It is disappointing that persons like GT have no sense of appropriate behavior. She just sees each and every thread as a venue for her bizarre views and the need to be seen in hopes of somehow staving off her lonely existence.

The Father loves the Son and sends Him. The Son prays to the Father. Only the Word/Son added humanity to Deity. Triadic formulas are used on Scripture.
What is true about Father, Son, Holy Spirit is generally true about each one. They share the same character and attributes, but AND WITH, etc. clearly show distinction in some sense despite their absolute oneness. Language means nothing if modalism is true.
The Greek in Jn. 1:1 and Jn. 10:30 would be different if modalism was true.

God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are ONE and the same.
Even when you see Jesus you see the Father.
You're a modalist whether you accept it or not.
Do you really think that I care how you falsely judge me?
course not. Why would you ever pay attention to truth?
I only care what God thinks of me.
And you don't even know that for sure.
