For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever

Let me say at the start Blik that you are COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR DEPTH in this matter. You should be learning, rather than trying to teach. What you just said is that you reject God's plans and purposes and that you have no clue. God the Father loves God the Son in a very special way. Therefore He has handed over all power and authority to the Son. That does not mean that the Father has been diminished. It means that GOD IS GLORIFIED IN HIS SON.
Where did this come from? No one has claimed to be God.
Did you not agree above that even though God is one, and at the same time we have God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit? So what exactly are you saying? Do you or do you not believe in the triune Godhead.

Is not God 1 unchanging, omnipresent, omnipotent power?
So apart from the flesh, what separates Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?

Notice I said ONE unchanging, omnipresent, omnipotent power, and not three powers.

The only difference between Son and Father is location. Jesus came down from heavens glory to be with us and to redeem us which is something the Father did not do. Otherwise there is no difference, neither can there be, because the glory of the Father dwelt in Jesus and the whole plan of salvation was orchestrated by the Father.

I reckon Trinitarianism and Modalism are both heretical in their own way and Trinitarianism in particular diminishes Jesus to the level of a mere human being and prophet instead of giving him all the honour and glory that is due to him.

Did not Jesus say to the disciple, if you see Me you have seen the Father? People the word, Godhead is used inthe Epistles to refer to Jesus, but it is not a dogma no a doctrine; learn that it is just one word.

I was about to give this a like until I read this last bit.

Where do you get the idea that "Trinitarianism ... diminishes Jesus to the level of of a mere human being and prophet"?

Maybe you've been reading to many Moslem misinterpretations of the trinity?

If I have ever slammed you I certainly didn't mean to. We are to discuss scripture here, not personalities. I have found that your habit of cutting off discussion with absolutes without scripture backup makes it impossible for us.

As an example you tossed out all the scripture I gave as God showing us that He did not surrender his power and authority but extended it as we were discussing you told me all these scriptures did not apply to the question, ending our reasoning together with your "strawman".

We have to give up on discussions together because of this, but that is just something we have to live with, it is not slamming you.

The Son is neither the Father nor the Spirit.

They are the same. If you have seen Jesus you have seen the Father.

Follow the following steps...

a. Get scissors or a match
b. Cut out or burn Hebrews chapter 1
c. Go your merry way thinking you are right in your own mind.

Hebrews 1 speaks of the Supremacy of the Son.

Verse 8 says about the Son, "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the scepter of your kingdom is a righteous scepter.

If we include the Holy Spirit, as we have to, the world concludes there are three gods in Christianity. There has to be, because Christians themselves say:

The Father is neither the Son nor the Spirit
The Son is neither the Father nor the Spirit
The Spirit is neither the Father nor the Son

Therefore the Father is one god, the Son is another god, and the Holy Spirit is another god.

This is heresy at it's worst.

Who says that ?

The question is kinda unnecessary in a sense, when you read and accept Matthew 1:23 .
They are one in the same. Christ is God with us . God came to this earth as Christ to provide Salvation for His children.
That would also reinforce Hebrews 2:14 and John 1. This is fundamental . Hebrews 1:3-14 ; etc.

The Father the son and the word, or the Holy Spirit , all three of these are one in the same. Three roles One God . The trinity. Its no different than you taking on different roles in life to different people . God fulfilling His prophecy . ( I would avoid all the confusion and slogans that people have been taught about what the trinity means which when you read plainly dont make sense and contradict what The Bible says . ) Just stick with scripture purely .

Hope that helps ...

Jesus IS <--BE VERB ->>the PHYSICAL ICON of the INVISIBLE FATHER

Get your facts straight....!!!

but your post alluded to that chrisitans say that Only one person has said it , rightly or wrongly.

That is what the Bible says, Trintarians say differently. They say:-

The Father is neither the Son nor the Spirit
The Son is neither the Father nor the Spirit
The Spirit is neither the Father nor the Son

I have never seen that, and it is also just as foolish to deny one God manifested three ways..........

See post 19. He accused someone of having a "DEFICIENT VIEW of the Godhead"

Quite strong language!

Blik, let me be perfectly clear...

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT GOD THE FATHER COMPLETELY SURRENDERED HIS POWER AND AUTHORITY.

You keep implying that I think He did. That's why I called your argument a strawman. You're welcome to engage, or refrain from engaging, in discussion, but at least try to understand my position instead of persistently misunderstanding it.

I don't see how that supports the idea that Jesus is a "mere human being and prophet".
