"Canonical"?
I repeat, you're the only one I've ever heard from who defines "God" as an office. Everyone else on the planet seems to think of "God" as a being. That's why the dictionary defines it the way it does.
Equivocation, you are intentional grounding the conversation!
I never defined God an office. I used the nature of the triunity of the us government to show how three individual things can be considered one united thing as an every day uncontested example.
I said or rather defined the word God is a title Not a name.
A title like God the Father
A title like God the Son
A title like God the Holy Spirit.
Or even Thor the god of thunder
or Poseidon the god of the sea
The word 'God' is not a name here but a position In Hebrew based worship the office of God is of supreme first and last authority.
You can not truthfully tell me you never heard anyone say God the Father God the Son and God the Holy Spirit? If you heard that even if your do not understand the word God in this specific instance is being used as a title it is referring to these three being being assigned the position of "God."
As a title the word often times when referring to a specific deity the Father is identified. but again this is him being refered to or acknoweledged by the title "God" as "god" is not his actual name.
Still with me?
