It looks like to me that you have a great grasp on it Randy.Its clear to me the source of the witness is the one and same God, "The" "Father" from whom all things came.
In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.
The Sons witness - through whom all things came
What does Jesus state about this witness?
John 12
“If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world. 48There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day. 49For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. 50I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.”
Jesus then is the "word" of the "Father" (God) - From the Father but given through the Son
John 16:13
The Holy Spirits witness
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
They will ALL be taught by "GOD" specifically the Father.
John 6:45
45 It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from him comes to me.
Of course about that Son the "Father" spoke "through" - the imprint of Gods very being -the image of the invisible God or ALL that the Father is
Hebrews 1:3
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.
Col 1:15
The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
The exalted Jesus in heaven holds to the testimony that the one on the throne in heaven is "His" God and "His" Father
The Church does see and state this despite adding language such as coeternal, coequal
In the same context
The Father unbegotten
The Son begotten of the Father before all worlds,
