Like the testimonies of twins

 Apparently, identical twins can vouch for each other in court, but their testimony might be scrutinised more closely due to the potential for bias or mistaken identity. They might biologically come from the same cell dividing in early stages of the pregnancy. Yet they are individuals, to the extent that courts accept their testimonies as distinct enough to be considered as two witnesses and one can vouch for the other. This is relevant to Theology and Christology. Jesus and the Father are so alike in many ways and many characteristics. The Son is truly like his Father. Yet the Father’s testimony, Jesus asserted, is able to be a second witness vouching for Jesus and by the miracles He performed through Jesus there are thus statements from God the Father to endorse Jesus and back up what Jesus asserted about himself.
