One God Three Persons or One God One Person?

[Dyonisius the Areopagite]

I didn’t avoid the post. It’s nonsense.
It’s become obvious that this discussion can go nowhere because you reject that Jesus ascended to the Father and received the gifts of His Spirit which he sent down to his disciples.

Where do the Scriptures say that Jesus "recieved the gifts of His Spirit"?

 

[Bruce.Leiter]

How is it “obviously, there are TWO PERSONS described here”?

The words “Holy Spirit” have no reference to a person.
However, the word “Father” does.

It’s therefore only obvious that “Father” would be a person.

And to “proceed” from the Father means the Holy Spirit originates from a source which is the Father.
The Father is the person who is the source of the Holy Spirit.

LeviR, respectfully, your comments contradict the Ephesians 4:30; a thing cannot feel grief:

Eph 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

Often this debate focuses on the Son of God. But I would like to focus on the Holy Spirit.
My challenge to the Oneness Pentecostals and other Modalists is simple:
That the Holy Spirit is fully God (which includes His Personhood), is a given in the debate with a Oneness adherent, thus, I say the following with that given in mind. If others who think that the Holy Spirit is an "it" or some "thing" wish to enter the debate, pleasde explain what the Holy Spirit of God can possibly be, if not fully God?
To the Oneness I say:
The Lord says that the Holy Spirit "....proceeds from the Father" (John 15:26).
Obviously, there are TWO PERSONS described here. The One Who proceeds from the First, and the One from Whom the Second proceeds.
Two Persons. How can there be anything else?

The scripture teaches that these three are one.

For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.
1 John 5:7

Modalism teaches that this one is three.
