    No. Distinct Persons not separate - they are one and the same God that one Yehwah. Omnipresent is not separate.

    Correct. Three distinct in Spirit, Romans 8:9, Romans 8:16. Yet the same Spirit being God, John 4:24. Omnipresent is not to ever be separate as God.

    As God. The Son is who made the invisible God visible, John 1:18, John 12:41, Isaiah 6:5.

    What do you mean beginning? They have no beginning. Our creation has a beginning and a promised replacment.

    Assuming a timeless eternity, Psalms 90:2, where the Son did no creation, John 1:3, where they only, we assume, fellowshipped. God is silent to us on this. So we really cannot yet know.

    Because they are the one and the same LORD [Yahweh] God.

    Now what role in creation was played by the Word according to John 1:3? Does it really mean what that says?

    Oh? Why according to John 1:3 did the Father and the Holy Spirit need the Word?
