Description: The problems with Oneness doctrine (Modalism)
In John 8:16, Jesus says that he does not judge alone, but “I and the Father who sent me.” Nowhere in the New Testament is the distinction between the Person of God and that of Jesus more explicit. This is because, in verse 17, Jesus referred to the Law stating that “the testimony of two people is true.” Jesus counts himself and his Father as two people when he says in verse 18, “I am the one who bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness about me.”
16 Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father who sent me . 17 In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true . 18 I am the one who bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness about me .”
These verses provide the strongest distinctions between God and Jesus not only in reference to them being separate persons but also provide distinction with respect to ontology (the Father is identified as God who is greater than all)
