When explaining his belief in the trinity to me, a baptist friend of mine that is taking classes at a local bible college explained the trinity as being 3 personalities in 1 God. I thought you all might find that interesting. I would imagine that he got this explanation from one of his professors, but I can't be certain. Either way, I thought it was interesting.

That's exactly how some Oneness have explained their view! Weird.

The difference between personalities and manifestations in my mind is that one implies independent behaviour from each "person", while the other doesn't necessarily.

Is a personality different than a person?

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
That's exactly how some Oneness have explained their view! Weird.
???? I don't recall ever hearing that explanation from any Oneness folks.
