Please explain to me oneness pentecostal view on the trinity and modalism?

[Marcial Taguic]

This is a four minute video which explains some of the analogies trying to explain the Trinity ... it's also very funny.

The video shows that Trinitarians cannot come to explain the trinity simply, but the Oneness believers can come to explain the oneness of God.

2+2=2 is simple but wrong.

2+2=4 & 2x2=4 is more complex yet true.

Simplicity doesn’t guarantee correctness.

I agree! But the easiest answer is not necessarily the correct answer, wouldn't you agree?

Indeed, it may be that that the easy answer is more likely to be the wrong one simply because we humans like getting answers that are easy to understand, whereas we are uncomfortable with answers that are complicated or untidy.

I'm not wild about that wording. I know that you don't mean what it sounds like.

It was probably not the best wording.

Is the Father included in the whole God?

The Father is entirely God. The Son is also entirely God, as is the Holy Spirit. The Trinity is not three parts making up a whole; but three co-equal, consubstantial Divine Persons, each truly and wholly God. The Son is the fullness of Deity Himself because He is fully God, as the One eternally begotten of the Father and of the Father's own Being, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God.
