trinity debunkers, where does the bible say specifically that the father and son are two distinct beings?

no rationalizations or explanations. let's assume thet everyone reading and responding to this question has at least a two digit iq and can read the bible in their own languages. also, i am not referring to nonspecific passages that declare that the father has a higher status or more power than the son. to have created such a heated dispute, there must be some dogmatic declaration somewhere in scripture that says the father and son are definitely two different people. also, we all know the difference between interpretations and translations.

Update:

you just can't make a question simple enough for some people to comprehend. sincere question.

    The bible isnt a credible source for argument. Go away.

    It doesnt. The idea of the trinity didnt exist until several hundred years later so there was no need to specify what would have been obvious from all the conversations, as you stated:

    of the son speaking to father, the son being on the right hand on the father, the son referring to the father as the head, the son stating he has done nothing save his father commanded it, the fact that no one knows "that day" no none, save the father. ...etc...etc....

    It doesnt say it specifically because there was no need to. The lie of the trinity wasnt created yet TO debunk scripturally and specifically. The examples are more than enough proof. But you are right....it all comes down to tradition and interpretation.

    Are we to build up or tear down one another? Jesus said we are to build one another up. Jesus saves and some believe different things. Teach the ones willing and do not help evil by attacking and accusing those that belong to Jesus.

    The knowledge you speak of is known by most but not all. Jesus saves so let us teach and build one another up. Evil attacks enough without us helping it. And how does this lead any to Christ? God has them here to hear/read about Jesus. Then God can/will do the rest.

    bless you.

    At Genesis 1: 26 says: "Let us make man in our image according to our likeness, [Now why would he say "Let us? unless he was talking to someone else? according to our image, [the capacity to think, love, be compassionate, gain knowledge] why would he say our if he was alone and not talking to someone else?

    Also, at Mark 12: 28 Now one of the scribes that had come up and heard them disputing, knowing that he had answered them in a fine way, asked him: "Witch commandment is first of all?" 29 Jesus answered: "The first is, 'Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one Jehovah

    The Trinity

    IIJohn Ch. 5 V.7-8

    For there are three that bear record in heaven, The Father, The Word, and the Holy Spirit: and these three are one.

    And there are three that bear witness on earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

    But in the end fiction is fiction and it doesn't matter how many people the trinity makes.

    When Jesus asks God why he has forsaken him, he's addressing God as his father. He's not talking to himself. Thus they are not one and the same.

    ahhh...let's see....

    Jesus did NOT pray to Himself.

    Was that too hard to grasp?
