Thomas... My Lord and my God

Well, then stop saying I'm not responding or that I'm running or hiding. Say the truth... that you don't like my response.
What responses you do give are fictitious. But the majority of my points (at least) are ignored by you.
That you think my replies are refuted by folks here like you, and that you think my comments are rhetoric that comes from my personal presupposition rather than an accurate understanding of what Scripture actually says.

To which I would reply that I think the same of you. That my post have repeatedly refuted, showing that your rhetoric comes from your personal presupposition rather than an accurate understanding of what Scripture actually says.

So then I think it would be honest if you would stop with the BULL S@%T saying I'm not responding or that I'm hiding or running.
Your language demonstrates that you are losing not only your cool, but the battle as well.

I'm okay. We are just on two different worlds. You believe what I call the trinity verses and you believe they are real verses not believed by me.
 
My argument is based upon the following facts

The angel of the Lord declares himself to be God.

The angel of the Lord is declared God and Yahweh.

Yahweh, speaking in the first person, "I" speaks of Yahweh in the third person, “he”.
Runningman

We've already proven in my previous post that someone can speak YHWH's words in the first person without stating that they are speaking YHWH's words and that it doesn't make them God.

Notice how YHWH will put His words in the prophets mouth and the prophet will speak them, but the prophet won't be YHWH.

Deuteronomy 18
18I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.

It is a little curious what you are addressing Here

You post a passage where a person is identified as not being Yahweh

How does that address the following?


Yahweh sends Yahweh

Zechariah 2:8–13 (LEB) — 8 For thus said Yahweh of hosts, after glory he sent me against the nations plundering you: Truly, the one touching you is touching the apple of his eye. 9 “Yes, look! I am going to wave my hand against them, and they will become plunder for their servants, and you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me. 10 Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for look, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst,” declares Yahweh. 11 “Many nations will join themselves to Yahweh on that day, and they will be my people, and I will dwell in your midst. And you will know that Yahweh of hosts has sent me to you. 12 And Yahweh will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and he will again choose Jerusalem. 13 Be silent, all people, before Yahweh, for he is roused from his holy dwelling.”

Yahweh speaks of Yahweh in the 3rd person

Exodus 19:20–25 (LEB) — 20 And Yahweh went down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. 21 And Yahweh said to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to see and many from them fall. 22 And even the priests who come near Yahweh must consecrate themselves, lest Yahweh break out against them.” 23 And Moses said to Yahweh, “The people are not able to go up to Mount Sinai, because you yourself warned us, saying, ‘Set limits around the mountain and consecrate it.’ ” 24 And Yahweh said to him, “Go, go down, and come up, you and Aaron with you and the priests, but the people must not break through to go up to Yahweh, lest he break out against them.” 25 And Moses went down to the people, and he told them.

Genesis 19:24 (UASV) — 24 Then Jehovah rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven,

Jehovah (yahweh) who was on earth rained down fire from Jehovah (yahweh) in heaven

Jehovah God will make the following strong in Jehovah not in himself refering to the Jehovah he was making them strong in as those who walk in his name

Zechariah 10:6–12 (UASV) — 6 “I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph. I will bring them back because I have compassion on them, and they shall be as though I had not rejected them, for I am Jehovah their God and I will answer them. 7 Then Ephraim shall become like a mighty warrior, and their hearts shall rejoice as if from wine. Their sons shall see it and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in Jehovah. 8 “I will whistle for them and gather them in, for I have redeemed them, and they shall be as numerous as they were before. 9 Though I sow them among the nations, yet in far countries they shall remember me, and with their sons they shall live and return. 10 I will bring them back from the land of Egypt, and gather them from Assyria, and I will bring them to the land of Gilead and to Lebanon, until there is no room for them. 11 And he shall pass through the sea of distress and strike down the waves of the sea, and all the depths of the Nile shall dry up. The pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the scepter of Egypt shall depart. 12 I will make them strong in Jehovah, and they shall walk in his name,” declares Jehovah.

Exodus 19:10–25 (NASB95) — 10
The Lord also said to Moses, “Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments; 11 and let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people. 12 “You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘Beware that you do not go up on the mountain or touch the border of it; whoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death. 13 ‘No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether beast or man, he shall not live.’ When the ram’s horn sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.” 14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and consecrated the people, and they washed their garments. 15 He said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; do not go near a woman.” 16 So it came about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunder and lightning flashes and a thick cloud upon the mountain and a very loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. 17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. 18 Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke because the Lord descended upon it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked violently. 19 When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke and God answered him with thunder. 20 The Lord came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the Lord called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. 21 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Go down, warn the people, so that they do not break through to the Lord to gaze, and many of them perish. 22 “Also let the priests who come near to the Lord consecrate themselves, or else the Lord will break out against them.” 23 Moses said to the Lord, “The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai, for You warned us, saying, ‘Set bounds about the mountain and consecrate it.’ ” 24 Then the Lord said to him, “Go down and come up again, you and Aaron with you; but do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the Lord, or He will break forth upon them.” 25 So Moses went down to the people and told them.

Runningman
Notice how Haggai speaks the words of YHWH in first person. We know Haggai isn't YHWH though.

Haggai 1
13Haggai, the messenger of the LORD, delivered the message of the LORD to the people: “I am with you,” declares the LORD.

Do you see anywhere that Haggai is identified as being God or yahweh or that there is a obvious reference to more than one Yahweh

Runningman

Amos speaks in the first person as God without saying he is representing YHWH:

Amos 4
11“Some of you I overthrew
as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
and you were like a firebrand snatched from a blaze,
yet you did not return to Me,”

So you have not provided a convincing argument at all. In fact, your premise is destroyed by examples of people not being YHWH speaking YHWH's words without introducing them as YHWH words.
It is quite interesting you think such addresses how the Angel of the lord identifies himself as God or Yahweh. None you mention make any such claim

Or that we have have an example of Yahweh being named and speaks also of Yahweh in multiple personhoods i.e, first and third persons


The angel of the Lord, the first and the last, claims to have founded the earth, and his right hand to have spread out the heavens that would be Jesus.

Runningman

The angel of the Lord isn't the first and last.

Isaiah 48:12–16 (NASB 95) — 12 “Listen to Me, O Jacob, even Israel whom I called; I am He, I am the first, I am also the last. 13 “Surely My hand founded the earth, And My right hand spread out the heavens; When I call to them, they stand together. 14 “Assemble, all of you, and listen! Who among them has declared these things? The LORD loves him; he will carry out His good pleasure on Babylon, And His arm will be against the Chaldeans. 15 “I, even I, have spoken; indeed I have called him, I have brought him, and He will make his ways successful. 16 “Come near to Me, listen to this: From the first I have not spoken in secret, From the time it took place, I was there. And now the Lord GOD has sent Me, and His Spirit.”

He who is speaking to Jacob defines himself thusly

I am He, I am the first, I am also the last. 13 “Surely My hand founded the earth, And My right hand spread out the heavens;
but he is not God the father as he is sent according
And now the Lord GOD has sent Me, and His Spirit.”
Now let see who is identified as the first and the last

Revelation 2:8 (NASB 95) — 8 “And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write: The first and the last, who was dead, and has come to life, says this:

Revelation 22:12–16 (NASB 95) — 12 “Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.” 14 Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city. 15 Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying. 16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.”


Multiple New Testament verses call Jesus God

John 1:1 (NASB95) — 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Runningman
This doesn't call Jesus God.

Well lets see

John 1:1–17 (NASB 95) — 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. 5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. 6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness, to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him. 8 He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light. 9 There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. 11 He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John testified about Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.’ ” 16 For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace. 17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.


The word is called God
The word is stated to be with God
The word was in the beginning
All things came into being through him the Word
Apart from him the word nothing came into being
He is clearly defined as becoming flesh that is Jesus Christ

I'm okay. We are just on two different worlds. You believe what I call the trinity verses and you believe they are real verses not believed by me.
The fact that you admit you don't believe Scripture tells me you have no business in a Christian debate forum. You don't believe in the God of Scripture or in His revealed Word. You are unworthy.
