Just as the man talking to his own soul is not a picture of two persons, yet uses the language of multipersons, the interaction between Father and Son uses those terms but DOES NOT IMPLY MULTiIPERSONS either, but something else.
The "something else" is not the same condition as the man talking to his own soul, but apart from that, but still not multi-persons as you insist.
We''re showing you that the BIBLE USES that language and it cannot be used as proof for more than one person.

You don't believe that a man speaking to his own soul is a use of metaphor?
