Traditionalists, if the Creator, Word and Holy Spirit are the same entity,...

According to the Bible, John was sent to bear witness of the light, life & spirit. Jesus was the manifestation (proof) of that light, and He had to come to bring the gift of salvation, as a light being brought into a dark place. He had to come "to do His father's work". Any deeper than that, you are gonna have to wait and ask God when/if we ever get to meet Him/Her.

What do you mean by "Traditionalist?"

The Trinity is the belief that there is one God who exists in three Persons. One nature, but three distinct persons.

The Trinity is
BIBLICAL

and HISTORICAL

Stop and consider that the Holy Spirit came down and reentered Christ after He had been baptized in the river. How can we have the Spirit dwell within us when He is dwelling within Himself here on earth? In a human body no less? That is why Christ had to bodily ascend back to heaven so that He could then send the Spirit to us.

You, your dad, your uncle, if you have a company
and you are really in agreement are NOT the same
entity. With the above, they are all 100% in agreement
entities...with different functions. Just as we don't realize
what our parents had to go through to raise us...
UNTIL we have children, ah, then we know, we don't
know what Jesus had to go through to do what He
did for us. Can't know it. The Holy Spirit would
be and stay with Jesus to complete the plan of
Salvation.

The Holy Spirit came down because the way we worship changed. We no longer need the temple for now our body is the temple and the Holy Spirit is within us.
