My answer is yes.

This should be quite entertaining. You all believe that God is three separate, distinct beings, or god is whole in and of himself?

This is actually one of the most mind boggling things about Christianity. Saying that he can't be 3 things at once while being only one thing is limiting his power. The godhead is three in one, The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are 100% God and 100% separate.

I believe God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are all one. Hereits a reason why he is all three. BUT, Does God ever say 'I am all three'? So, really is just depends what you believe.

Actually yes he does... I just don't know the exact reference.
Hizuma, is the purpose of this debate simply to cause a debate or to feed your own curiosity?

I did find some references about the trinity. Although the trinity is not mentioned in the Bible, there was one word in the Bible that actually have the mean of Trinity - Three in One. The word that is mentioned is "Godhead." I believe the word "Trinity" was invented later to replace the word "Godhead" to avoid some confusion, but it has not lost its meaning. Here are some verses that will help you.
"Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent." Acts 17:29 & 30
"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." Romans 1:20
"For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily." Col. 2:9
"My Father and I are one." John 10:30
I used this source from dictionary.com. The word Godhead means "the essential being of God; the Supreme Being. The Holy Trinity of God the Father, Christ the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

@Friar: A bit of both
@ Everyone else: Before you say anything, yes I am Oneness Pentecostal. If you do not understand what that means, feel free to PM me. I am solid in what I believe, and can back it up scripturally. But as for the debate in here... I am stepping out of it.
@ Thistle: sola scriptura

Yea, without someone like you, arguing for oneness, this is just an agree session and not a debate.
Just look at how its been going.
