Please explain how you think a Oneness view is different than a Trinitarian view here.

I don't understand your question. I believe God was manifest in the flesh and I don't believe in 3 persons. I am just trying to reconcile numbers 23:19 with the oneness view.

Just saying it needs no reconciling with Oneness view in particular. God is not a man. Nor is he the son of man - this obviously means apart from the miraculous incarnation.

Sure I do as do Trinitarians. That is why I said "this obviously means apart from the miraculous incarnation." The verse does not have the Only Begotten Son in view.

Jesus said he was a man. John 8:40
Jesus is the Truth, therefore Jesus did not lie. John 14:6
Jesus said he was the Son of man. Matt 16:13
Jesus is God. Isaiah 9:6
Since all of these statements are true, we can conclude that at the time in which God spoke Numbers 23:19, He had not yet become a man.

Isn't the word of God forever settled in heaven? "the word of God cannot be broken" how can scriptures contradict?
