Even when being found as a Man, the Son kept the Unity through His obedience and faith.
2Timothy 2:14
if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself.

I can only imagine the depths, and heights and widths, of the astounding significance of Jesus' declaration that, " I Am."
He endured the cross for the promise to Him that would follow. He is the Seed to Whom the promise was made.

I have no idea. But we cannot be making anyone up. He wasn't any different just before Jesus the Son of God received His name.
here is the striking difference between Your view and what generally the masses believe:

the Masses believe:
the whole Bible, from Genesis 1:1 to Revelation 22:21 is ALL about Jesus, because, Jesus, is God!

and clearly, this is not your view.

that is the real difference here.


but let me share something with you:

16 “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you

Jesus claims to have sent HIS [MY] ANGEL.

human beings in Heaven or on Earth, "do not" have Angels they can ORDER Around.

Only GOD, can ORDER Angels around.

Jesus, proves He is God, by having Angels and being able to send Angels to do His Will.

you cannot do this and neither can I, WE, are not God like Jesus is.

go back and have a look at what the experts in the scripture, who devoted their whole lives to studying and understanding the Tanakh did when they heard Him say that.

they did not think He was saying He is really old. they understood He was making Himself out to be equivalently THE ANCIENT OF DAYS.
Agreed!

just thinking that Jesus said He pre-existed Abraham would have only made the Jews laugh at Him like He was insane and crazy.

but the Verses afterwards state: they picked up rocks to KILL Him!

You only kill people for them claiming to be God!

Incorrect. How do you respond to John 17:5?
we know in Verse 4, Jesus' part of the Deal was to Glorify the Father on EARTH and Verse 5 shows Jesus asking to be Restored.

it's the RESTORED [what's He being Restored BACK to WHAT He was BEFORE], that matters.

It matters, because, Jesus [the WORD], was something POWERFUL before He came as Jesus and now He wants to go back to being WHO He was before.

This is how we know Jesus EMPTIED HIMSELF.

He wants to be Restored back to being COMPLETE Again.

That means He was God, Emptied Himself to be Jesus, then was RESTORED Back.

So, yes, Jesus, is God, by proxy of being the WORD, who Emptied Himself!

The trinity is God in three persons, which make up one Godhead. It's not one God manifesting three different ways. In other words, God didn't stop being the Father to become the Son; likewise He didn't stop being the Father to become the Holy Spirit. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit coexist and have always coexisted from eternity, but they are one. The difference is subtle but important.
just out of my own curiosity, how can an Omnipresent, Omniscient, and Omnipotent God, be Changing Who God is [Father-Word made flesh-Holy Spirit] by whether God being in Spirit Form, or when God visits His Creation in the Physical Form, or while God is coexisting with those who are now Heirs in God [Holy Spirit lives inside of us]...being changing WHO God is, if it is Manifestations?

I believe in the Father-Word-Holy Spirit, but, from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22, each time the Throne Room of God is shown, it is ALWAYS ONE THRONE and ONE BEING representing God sitting on the Only Throne in the Throne Room of God. many things do not make sense when we know WHO GOD is and then see GOD in example. They do not always align up. But, we still KNOW for a FACT, GOD, is Father-WORD-Holy Spirit!

Correct. But they are not two different people or persons.

Just hearing this song "Lover of my Soul". Mind blowing.. can't comprehend how much He loves me.

There were at least four different versions of this song... one
admittedly had a slightly different title: Jesus, Lover of My Soul...

I myself as a Christian am not a trinitarian I would ask opportunity to explain - why ?

My intent is never to be disrespectful or harmful to Trinitarian believers but to express and show the evidence


the truth is, the Translations always translate the passages of the Bible to always say that Jesus is
" ON " - the right hand of God; but never, ever once is the Greek word - " ON " ἐπί - epi - used to describe Jesus

" ON " the right of God, this is never expressed in the manuscripts

for example, we see the usage of this Greek word in - Mat 26:50- they laid hands " ON " ἐπί - epi - Jesus, and took him.

the Greek word here is - " ON " is - - ἐπί - epi -


but notice we see the definition of the Greek word { εν } - meaning - IN / in, this Greek word " εν - IN " is used a total of 2,720 total times in the New Testament. that's - two thousand, two hundred, and twenty total times.

the Greek manuscripts declare that Yahashua is - IN / εν = EN

IN / εν = EN, - in the right of power
IN / εν = EN, - the right of the throne
IN / εν = EN, - the right of the Father
IN / εν = EN, - the right of God


Heb 12:2 Christ is set - ἐν - en - - in the right of the throne of God.
Heb 10:12 Jesus is forever sat down - ἐν - en - - in the right of God;
1Pe 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is - ἐν - en - - in the right of God;
Rom 8:34 Christ in - ἐν - en - - in the right of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Eph 1:20 Christ in - ἐν - en - - in his own right - ἐν - en - - in in the heavenly place.
Heb 8:1 Christ is set - ἐν - en - - in the right of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
Heb 1:3 sat down - ἐν - en - - in the right of the Majesty - ἐν - en - - in the high.

this Greek word " εν " IN - is used a total of 2,720 total times in the manuscripts - and 47 total times in the translation the translators change this word to replace and change this word - into the word {( ON )} -

to replace the word " IN " with the word " ON " is something that is possible to do but very rarely because the true meaning and definition of the Greek word " - ἐν - En - mean literally in Greek - IN

you can replace the Greek word " IN " with the word " ON " - - for example the translation says

Mar 14:2 But they said, Not { ON } the feast day,

however, the Greek word here in " Mar 14:2 " is the Greek word " - ἐν - En - meaning literally in Greek - IN
and should more properly translate as - IN, - as the manuscripts say exactly

:2 But they said, Not { IN } the feast day, - not ON the feast day, the manuscripts say " IN the day of the feast "


because that the the matter was dealing with death and capture of Jesus wherein the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.

PRIESTS AND SCRIBES LITERALLY SAID :2 But they said, Not { IN } the feast day, they did not say UPON or ON the feast day - - they stated - - :2 Not { IN } the feast day,

you can replace the Greek word " IN " with the word " ON " - however, this is not something that is done in very many examples because these two words have a completely different meaning. The Greek word " IN " means literally " INSIDE " inside of an idea or an object or location and this is where Jesus originates , it is - IN - God,
INSIDE God's Throne and Power and Spirit where Jesus originates

the priests and scribes here, they were not concerned or opposed to the capturing and killing of Jesus upon or " ON " the celebrated day of the feast, in their minds they felt that upon or on the feast day it would not be wrong to take care of their threat and problem - - on a holy day

but for reasons that that were immediate in their minds and feeling - they used the word " IN " - inside
saying they did not want to capture and kill Jesus " IN " - inside / during the the feast day.


it was not saying - they did not want to do this upon the day of the feast but it was in the feast day
to them, doing this would have no long term effect for their future to have done this
ON / UPON the the feast day in a historical context - this was not their point.

but for the success and ability to make his capture and killing a success, they stated - not IN the feast day
this could be the difference between using the word " in / inside " - opposed to the word " on / upon "




we see also, the Greek manuscripts literally using the Greek word OUT FROM / EXITING " ἐξ - EX " when describing Yahashua exiting / departing out from and out God - the Greek word literally means " ἐξ - EX " =

OUT OF / FROM

Act 7:56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " the right of God.

Yahashua exists both IN and OUT OF the right of God - He originates and dwells inside " IN' " the spirit of God


Mat 26:64 Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " the right of power, coming in the clouds of heaven.
Mar 14:62 ye shall see the Son of man sitting " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " the right of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Mar 12:36 The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right untill I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Mat 22:44 Sit thou "
ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right until I make thine enemies thy footstool
Mat 22:44 Sit thou " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right until I make thine enemies thy footstool
Luk 22:69 the Son of man sitting " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " the right of the power of God.
Act 2:34 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right
Mar 16:19 and sat " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " the right of God.
Luk 20:42 Sit thou " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right
Act 2:25 for he is " ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " my right


SO WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR JESUS TO BE IN AND OUT OF THE RIGHT OF GOD ?

when he appears in bodily form - he is always described as literally departing dwelling out outside of the right of god - externally - exterior - manifesting externally - the physical visible form of the invisible spirit

OUTSIDE OF GOD - appearing to man



WHEN HE IS IN THE THRONE - HE HAS ENTERED - DWELLING IN THE RIGHT OF GOD - UNSEEN INVISIBLE RETURN BACK IN THE SPIRIT OF THE HOLY WHERE HE ORIGINATES AS AN ATRIBUTE OF GODS SPIRIT

and he is forever in the right of god - but can depart out of the right of god - to dwell out of the right of god.... in bodily form - visible and can exist both at the same time - in and out of the right of God, NEVER - NOT EVEN ONE SINGLE TIME - do we find Yahashua sitting ON or AT the right HAND of God. - NEVER EVER IN THE MANUSCRIPTS

i promise you this is truth, the Greek manuscripts always express Yahashua as both

- ἐν - en - - IN -

and

" ἐξ - EX " = OUT OF " God


the evidence is there in the manuscripts exact and precise - the Greek word " ON " is - ἐπί - epi -
is never once in the
manuscript using the Greek word " ON " to express Yahashua on the right of God
ON - as ἐπί -
epi

I thought that Jesus was saying that there is no disagreement between the Father and the Son, that in fact they are agreed (see the context).

I know that God Jesus' Father knows all things, but that Jesus does not know all things.

they immediately tried to kill Him for blasphemy when He said this.

your interpretation makes no sense in the context.

the truth is, the Translations always translate the passages of the Bible to always say that Jesus is " ON " - the right hand of God; but never, ever once is the Greek word - " ON " ἐπί - epi - used to describe Jesus
It is usually "at" the right hand of the Father. But this proves nothing except that you want to play word games.

Did Jesus here say that no they didn't understand what He was saying? Somewhere He does that.
you don't seem to understand what He is saying in John 10.

they did, but they did not believe Him. John 10:25-26,33,38

He was not speaking to them in order to confuse them, as your comment implies.
