Brian, I never called them three offices, but I defined what the word person means from my English dictionary as "character of office". Now I understand that you are not really meaning person, but three hypostases, and I choose not to use that term as I am not even sure what it means. However, when I gave you the definition of the word person, I gave you the only possibly correct definition of the word as to not separate the three into three gods. That does not mean that I believe that the three are merely offices. However, now I realize that you mean hypostasis, and not person, and I am not going to debate you on a word that isn't of my own vocabulary. Never said that I knew how the three are one, just said that I believe it. You think that hypostases is the only way to refer to the three without being wrong then I have no problem, but you can't expect me to fully understand your thinking when you use such a term.

I am not your teacher and only wish to share things with you that you may in turn try them by your own knowledge of the Lord. I really don't know any thing. Still learning and growing in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Praying for you and all men that you would also come to the knowledge of the truth and continue to grow in it. I am a sinner, but I have a hope that God through Jesus Christ our Lord will deliver me from my present situation of being a sinner and deliver me from this vile body and I thank him for this promise of eternal life. This is my faith that I share with all my brethren in the Lord who we patiently wait for. Jesus Christ IS come in the flesh.

Rom 8:22-25  For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
