Subject: explain the trinity

Bible Note: jcsav,

I just reviewed a post to you from EdB, post ID 112839.

I see you are "Oneness" Pentacostal. You do believe that Jesus is God, but that God is only one person that manifests as three (Modalism).

Well , I was wandering how you explain Jesus' reasoning when He said:

John 8
16 And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me. 17 It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. 18 I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

Notice that He said "... the testimony of two men is true. ..."

Doesn't this show Jesus as using faulty reasoning if He in fact was the same person as the Father?

And how about blasphemy against the Holy Spirit?

Mat 12
31 "Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

If the blasphemy is against the same person, then why is there forgiveness for blasphemy against the "Son of Man" (Jesus Christ), but not forgiveness for blasphemy against the Holy Spirit?

If you really are interested in "what God says about Himself", then study what He said about Himself in these scriptures above.
