Arguing with yourself just proves that you are aware that you have not figured something out or have not made up your mind. Otherwise, no argument.

In the first place I never said there was more than one person living in us. I said what we experience gives us a faint idea of what is going on in God.

Read Edward's piece and Piper before throwing this out. I think it might grow on you. It is at least helpful to me. Edwards never said it explained everything, but it explains more than most explanations.

As to arguing with yourself, I never mentioned it. Whether you argue or not, you have a relationship with yourself. You can't help it. Healthy people have a loving relationship with themselves. The healthier you are the less conflict you have. But you still have a relationship.
