One to the power of 3 persons = 1 being

Many people did not have the opportunity to hear the gospel bef passed away 
He heard but deny 
that is him his choice.

So God has parts and the Father is one part of God.

Can we then conclude that the Father is not fully God by Himself according to your theology?

The Father is fully God so are the other 2 distinct persons

If the Father is fully God and the other 2 are also fully God, you have 3 persons who are all fully God, correct?

They are not parts of God, but rather each is God in their entirety.

So your earlier statement is not accurate when you said they ONLY become God in entirety when they come together.

So, when 1 God from the three says He alone is God and there is no other besides Him, how do you square that circle?

So, when 1 God consisting of the three persons say He alone is God and there is no other besides Him, there will be nothing to square that circle!

Each person has a unique role but they are all one God.

It's hard to explain the Holy Trinity concept lah! Big Grin We believe but you don't lah! 3-in-1 God is 1 God lah!

Ok. 

When 1 person from the 3 says He alone is God and there is no other besides Him, how do you reconcile that?

The reason it is hard to explain is that the concept of the Trinity is illogical.

In comparison, the Shema is easy and self-explanatory. Even a child could understand the Shema.

they are distinct, but united in purpose, will, and essence.... So it is not one person says...it is will of that one being we call God!

Yes, it's fine for you to just keep it simple, like how you would interpret that a human is just one person. We explain that a human is made up of the body, soul, and spirit....that's what makes us different.

We pay attention to details but you don, just like how the Quran portrays itself in inadequacy

Are you saying all 3 have the same one will?

One human is also one person. If you say otherwise, you're way off the chart of rationality.

A human is composed of three persons—I can refer to these persons as the body, soul, and spirit...it's just a term to address them as person each .The idea is similar to the concept of the Trinity. So, when I speak to someone, who is representing me? Is it my body, my soul, or my spirit?

What do you think? After I teach you about the Trinity, you should have enough understanding to answer your own question. Since you already believe in Christ and pray to the Father, it's about time you make it official!

So who am I speaking to now? Your body or your soul?

Does your body have a separate will from your soul?

Phew!

I'm glad you don't think they all have the same will.

Now, let's get back to the verse in Isaiah which says "I am the Lord, and there is no other. Apart from me there is no God.". I'm sorry to keep asking you this simple question because you keep waffling. Who is that speaking in the 1st person?

Can your body communicate without a soul and spirit? Likewise, can your soul and spirit express themselves without a body?  
Don't you think all three need to come into harmony? It shouldn't be too hard for your mind to grasp, right?

That is one being speaking...who says it is a person?

When we read in Mark 1:11 spoken in a similar 1st person, is that also one being speaking?
