Yes, very helpful and much appreciated. And I am glad to hear that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are neither shunned nor over emphasized to fanaticism...as some groups do.
To me the Scripture is clear that The Father and Y'shua are ONE, yet as Y'shua points out, that The Father is "Greater" than I, it seems clear that there is to be this distinction.
They share the NAME then.
This is how I look at it. It says..."Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...." and He made them male and female in the day that He created them...and called their name Adam/Man
Eve, the mother of all living, was in Adam/Man and was later taken out of him...bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. They two, being one really, but with a distinction of order and rank??? and in position and authority.
I see the Father and the Son in this picture...YH'shua coming forth from the midst of YHWH, being Spirit of Spirit and Light From Light....
Their offspring comes fourth from both of them and is them in substance and being,...this is a picture of The Holy Spirit to me. Of both the Father and The Son and proceeding forth from them.
Though crude, I think this is a revelation to us in the Scripture.
I just wanted to get a hint on how my brothers out there in these groups see these things. I long for the day when there is complete unity in Spirit and Truth...and the traditions of men are no more.
