It strikes me that the monarchical Trinitarian cannot say “the Trinity is God” either by identity or predication.
So what is the Trinity?

I am simply stating exactly what Fred Sanders says.
You personify the natures as agents. Fred says this is Nestorianism.
You have to be willing to say things like “God died” or “God doesn’t know the hour”.
Sorry Scott, if you are granted life, you do not have self-existence.
Be honest that eternal generation results in the son not having aseity.
“For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.”

Yes, I know. I was making the comment in light of Scott’s comments here:

His first line of Scriptural defense for eternal generation is the name Son of God.

No not aggressive at all, your interactions with others are gracious
I watched your video but in my years of study on the topic, there are a few key questions (Trinity model dependent) that become mental roadblocks
Maybe you can chat with Sam sometime.

Isn’t the Trinity the complete being?
Isn’t the Son sustained by the Father?
Why does Pawl think the Son possesses the essential properties of a supposit?
If the Son is necessary for the Father to have a unique hypostasis, does the Father have aseity in the monarchical trinity model?

@FredFredSanders “person” is just the word for the distinction?
So all person means is that the Son is not the Father?
What about the Holy Spirit?
The Lord is the Spirit...
