Let Us?

Why God speaks in plurality?

Because God is One being and Three Persons

In the Book of Genesis we read God speaking in plurality: Let US make man in OUR image after OUR likeness 

 Then God said, “Let US make man^[a] in OUR image, after OUR likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” Genesis 1:26

Man became like on of US 

Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of US in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat, and live forever—” Genesis 3:22

Let Us go down and confuse them 

Come, let US go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand one another’s speech.”Genesis 11:7

God created Adam (singular being) male and female two persons and they both join each other and become one flesh. 

Here is the genealogy of Adam. On the day that God created man he made him in the likeness of God; ² he created them male and female; he blessed them and called them Adam [humankind, man] on the day they were created.Gen 5:1-2

How is two persons one male and one female become one flesh? 

Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become One Flesh.
Gen 2:24

Also, In Isaiah we see the word of God speaking in pularity:

Whom shall I send, and who will go for US?” 

And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for US?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.” ⁹ And he said, “Go, and say to this people:
Isaiah 6:8-9

The Lord Jesus in the N.T.  speaking about his relationship with the father in John’s Gospel:

I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, ²¹ that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in US, so that the world may believe that you have sent me John. 17:20-21

Jesus asking The Father to glorify him with the presence he had before the creation of the world,

⁴ I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. ⁵ And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.⁶ “I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. John 17:4-6

God of the Bible is One Being but three persons, The Father, His Word and His Spirit

By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
    and by the breath (spirit/rū-aḥ) of his mouth all their host. Psa 33:6

In Christ
