I answered you, and in doing so, answered the 'one being' question as well.
You don't affirm the ecumenical creeds? Because--and forgive me if I'm wrong--but you seem to be heading somewhere that John 1 would prohibit.

You didn’t answer a basic question I asked you about light 💡
You’re assuming a question I haven’t asked.
Ecumenical creeds we haven’t even gotten too as this is a question about light.
Now you jump straight to NEW TESTAMENT
Cool. 😎
You didn’t. You think you did but you didn’t.
Go in peace 🕊️
--as I suspected, you were on the way to saying that Jesus is the first thing created (light) and not the Creator himself. That's why I responded the way I did. That is not the teaching of Scripture (hence my quotation of John 1 and Col 1), as the church has always confessed.
Scripture is many books, but it is also one book; it has many authors, yet it has one Author. To pit (say, NT) scripture against (say, OT) scripture is to pit its Divine Author against himself.
I stand with Athanasius on this question, CONTRA MUNDUM, as it were.
