Laura, your answer indicates that you do not believe in the Trinity.  You
believe in Sabellianism.

The Trinity teaches that there are 3 persons in the Godhead, the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Ghost.  Sabellianism teaches that there is only 1 person
in the Godhead, known as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but in many periods of Christian history, you
would be labeled a heretic for believing that the Father, Son, and Holy
Ghost are all the same person.  In fact, the Protestant reformer John Calvin
was instrumental in causing a man name Michael Servetus to be burned at the
stake in Geneva, primarily because he believed in God just as you expressed
here.  In fact, Michael S. used the same Scriptures as you did.  If you read
Calvin's comments about it, he was quite infuriated at the man for teaching
that the Godhead is one person.

Peace be with you.
