John 8:14-19
14 Jesus replied, “Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I came from or where I am going.
15 You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.
16 But even if I do judge, My judgment is true, because I am not alone; I am with the Father who sent Me.
17 Even in your own Law it is written that the testimony of two men is valid.
18 I am One who testifies about Myself, and the Father, who sent Me, also testifies about Me.”
19 “Where is Your Father?” they asked Him. “You do not know Me or My Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew Me, you would know My Father as well.”

It's interesting that in 17-18 Jesus says the testimony of the Father and Himself are akin to the testimony of two men.

And referring to oneself in the third person is not that uncommon. And I've been know to say to myself, "Son, you can do better." Or the like. So... I get your objection, I hope you get the point I'm making.

If there is no conflict between personalities.....does MPD even manifest? /sidetrack

I've read and also heard your interpretation of the Father/Son/Spirit, and although I don't ascribe to it myself currently, I think I do understand.
