on me more than a few times claiming I never answered you when I did. I'm also not
interested in proving that point either; you can bring it up if you like. I'm only
interested in the discussion we are having right now, not in the past; the question
then compared to now is more than likely in a different context. If you cannot or will
not stay on topic and deal with the questions at hand, just say so and run away;
putting other delaying tactics is not necessary. I will just know you were unwilling
or unable to back up your position and be done with this.

Do you know what an analogy is?
or even give a good analogy to prove your point, questioning me on something like
this is not necessary! Just say you cannot answer that and be done, because clearly
right now you have no explanation of why the scriptures talk about God using terms
like 'us.'

@kellyjay saidYou think your “reading the bathroom scales” is a good analogy?

@kellyjay saidSo my analogy of the same person wearing different clothes, as a way of explaining to one god revealing himself in different ways, is poor and inappropriate.
You have shown your willingness to have a conversation isn't real; thank you for your
time.
But your decidedly off-the-mark analogy of reading the FACT of the bathroom scales when you stand on them as a parallel for reading the FACT of the bible is robust. Because YOU said it?
I see.
@divegeester saidYeah, quite correct; one has us looking at a mirror and saying I am losing weight

I see.
while the scales are the way to measure weight; you have us changing clothes to
become a different person. So yes, yours was quite poor; not sure why you think
it was inappropriate.

@kellyjay saidWell this explains a lot about you and why you think the way you think.

The bathroom scales operate because of gravity, (which incidental you think is some kind of creation magic or something) there is matter (your mass) being pulled toward the earth by a force (gravity) which turns a dial to give a reading. It’s physics! Cause and effect.
You attempting to analogise this physical cause and effect with you reading something in the bible is borderline hilarious.

the things being said.
@divegeester saidNo three beings One God, pay attention!
Anyway , let’s get back to the OP.
You worship three “beings” which occupy one spirit.
I worship on being who is one spirit.
@divegeester saidWhere exactly did I say that?
No, when I asked you who many spirits there were in God you said “one spirit and 3 beings”
Are you now backing away from that statement?
