Quote:
Deuteronomy 6:4 "The Lord our God is one Lord."
vs.
1.Genesis 1:26 "And God said, Let us make man in our image."
2.Genesis 3:22 "And the Lord God said, Behold, the man has become as one of us, to know good and evil."
3.I John 5:7 "And there are three that bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."
It does no good to claim that "Let us" is the magisterial "we." Such usage implies inclusivity of all authorities under a king's leadership. Invoking the Trinity solves nothing because such an idea is more contradictory than the problem it attempts to solve.

1. Trinity. A triune God
2. Speaking about either trinity or angels. ANgels also knew good and evil, and it was in the matter of good and evil, that man was like "them". (Angels AND God)
3. Trinity. A triune God.
Whether or not Barker deeoms invoking the Trinity does nothing, these verses are part of the PROOF of the Trinity. Rather than the Trinity being used as a defense, these verses are key factors in providing the biblical concept of the Trinity.
To simply dismiss such arguing is ridiculous. A triune God makes perfect sense. Barker shows he never grasped the concept, and placed human limitations on the Creator. Consequently, throughout nature and in conceptuality, triunity, or biunity exists.
A (singular) couple (plural) is one such conceptual example of biunity.
A trio is an example of conceptual triunity.
Plainly obvious and not difficult to grasp whatsoever. Barker needs to revise his "freethought" methinks.
