1. One essence/nature with one set of attributes, encapsulated fully in three distinct persons.
2. All three persons are co-equal and co-eternal.
Sigurd:
1. Three separate essences/natures which share the same attributes, each encapsulated in three distinct persons.
2. The Son and Holy Spirit are subordinate to the Father, and were created by him.
The Son is the only begotten, but obviously he partook in the creation. If The Son is a created being, he would have been the first of all created beings.
You say: One essence/nature with one set of attributes, encapsulated fully in three distinct persons. It is hard to interpret that as anything other than three separate entities.
