However, to answer your question again, God is not a committee. He is One God who dwells in three persons. There are not three God's. There don't act independently from each other.
The word Godhead is in the Bible. I get refuted for using the word "trinity" which isn't in scripture, therefore I use a word which is in scripture, and get pounced on for that.
God bless.

The Bible explains that there is NO Lord beside The Lord.
Isaiah 45:5 KJV
I am the Lord , and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
There is only ONE Lord. As we venture into the New Testament, the Bible explains that Jesus Christ is Lord of all.
Acts 10:36 KJV
The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:).
If Jesus is separate from God, then He cannot be Lord of all. His Father would be Lord of all. However they both share this equality, that there is only One Lord, and Jesus Christ is The Lord.
In-fact, the Bible says that man cannot say Jesus is The Lord, unless they have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them.
1 Corinthians 12:3 KJV
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
Can you say from your heart, that Jesus Christ is The Lord? This is no referring to a Lord, but The Lord.
The Bible also explains that The Holy Ghost, who is a person is The Lord also.
2 Corinthians 3:17 KJV
Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
Showing forth the three persons of the Godhead. Which is recorded in 1 John 5:7
1 John 5:7 KJV
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

this is for those who are interested in bible study.. the jehovah's witnesses claim that only the father is god, and thus teach he was the saviour in the old testament.
the bible teaches that god says "there is no saviour beside me".
therefore how is it, that the lord jesus christ is called the saviour of the world?.
Thank you Atlantis. That will come in handy for sharing with them.

Thomas knew the Lord Jesus was God :
John 20:28-29 KJV
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Peter believed the Lord Jesus was Lord of all:
Acts 10:36 KJV
The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all: )
Peter preached that Jesus is God:
2 Peter 1:1 KJV
Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
Paul preached that the Lord Jesus was God:
1 Timothy 3:16 KJV
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Paul preached that The Lord Jesus is the great God:
Titus 2:13 KJV
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Paul said that The Lord Jesus is the God and Saviour of whom appeared to us:
Titus 3:4 KJV
But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,
John explained that the Lord Jesus was God several times...
John 1:1 KJV
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1 John 5:7 KJV
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
1 John 5:20 KJV
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
So you see, there is scriptural evidence throughout the Bible to explain that the Lord Jesus is equal to the Father and is God.
There are THREE that are in Heaven... The Father, The Word and the Holy Spirit and these THREE are ONE.

Jookbeard, okay.
As mentioned, in Isaiah the Bible says the following :
In the NWT it replaces the word Lord with Jehovah.
The Jehovah's Witnesses teach that God is one person, not three.
However as the Bible says that there is no Saviour beside God, this is further evident in the book of Hosea.
Hosea 13:4 KJV
Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.
So as we are taught from the Scripture - It is God who is the Saviour, not men, not an organisation and not ourselves.
However as we note that Jesus is the Saviour of the world, there either has to be a contradiction in the word of God, because we have learned that ONLY God is the Saviour, or we can learn from the Bible that the Lord Jesus who is equal to His Father and a member of the Godhead IS the Saviour and is God.
If you go to the book of numbers, you will see that God who is the Saviour to Israel rescued them from Egypt, and delivered them. Yet, as they murmured against Him, God chastened them by sending fiery serpents. Note the verse...
Numbers 21:5-8 KJV
And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread. [6] And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died. [7] Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord , and against thee; pray unto the Lord , that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people. [8] And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
So, it was the Lord God who Israel murmured against, it was the Lord God who sent fiery serpents and it was the Lord God who chastened Israel, as God does to all His children who are out of line (as a loving father does to his children).
However as we look at the new testament, Paul reveals which person in the Godhead sent the fiery serpents...
1 Corinthians 10:8-10 KJV
Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. [9] Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. [10] Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
So Christ was the One who was murmured against (the pre-incarnate Lord Jesus) and it was the Pre-incarnate Lord Jesus who sent the fiery serpents. Thus showing that He is God.
Paul recognises throughout scriptures that the Lord Jesus is God, in many verses.

1 Thessalonians 2:13 KJV
For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

Cofty, if you genuinely want to know, watch the video, and you'll receive help with the verses I provide.
My words have no power, I preach the word of God which has power (Hebrews 4:12).
Instead of asking man his views... ask God to reveal His word to you.
Seek and ye shall find.
