[Dr. Eckleburg]

If I pray to Christ, I am praying to God, the Father.

And vice versa.

I can't believe Catholics don't agree with this. I think, more likely, it's just an instance when someone thinks they can prove a point into absurdity. My Catholic friends all understand that praying to one person of the Trinity is praying to all persons of the Trinity.

"Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.

But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

I and my Father are one." -- John 10:25-30

Do you think that a person baptized only in the name of "Jesus ", i.e. not in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, is validly baptized?

If I pray to Christ, I am praying to God, the Father.

Modalists, who believe that the Son is the Father is the Holy Spirit, might believe that, but Trinitarian Christians shouldn't.

Let me ask you this, because perhaps we're talking past each other.

Do you believe that Jesus and the Father are the same person?
