Some people don't get it that Jesus alone himself doesn't make the Godhead...
no matter how much verses provided from Holy Bible they still want to dance to their tune...

I am also a father, brother, and son; and was a husband while my marriage lasted. Yet I am not God. This scripture does not imply divinity of Jesus, who himself was never a husband nor a father; so clearly this saying does not apply to him.

The first chapter of the gospel according to John teaches Jesus Christ is God. Isaiah 9 says the Child born unto us would be called Everlasting Father, the Almighty God, Counselor, Wonderful, Prince of Peace. Revelation says Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega.

People who do not understand at least that the Father is everywhere would have difficulty believing the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are one, but that is the difference between peoples.

Jesus Chrst, Yeshua, is God Almighty. This is nowhere near being a speculation, a paradox or a dogma of man, it is written.
what about the passage that says Jesus learned from the Father?Jesus will send the Holy spirit when He Ascends back to Godhead?and the greatest one difference that the time of His coming only Father knows...
what about that?

Play dumb now...

He and the Father are one
{John 10:30}
yes,as Godhead with an order in it.
i am just continuing in this post so as to see someone who can shed some light otherwise...
Can you tell If Jesus exists and existed as a single entity why He mentioned about talking to a Father entity?
Do you need verse?i think you can find in some of my posts earlier..

Please if you can explain them being God the Father,God the Son and God the Holy Spirit be one only as one single entity and not a s a Godhead?
There are verses proving it is so,or like many you also go blind to such verses...whats the game?

[/SUP] But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
John 14:10 Believest thou not that

.....and greater works than these shall he do;
.....because I go unto my Father.

John 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name,

By this do you mean that Jesus exists as 3 and yet one?
Then what about the verse that says 'only the Father knows the hour' ?

He and the Father are one
{John 10:30}
In Jn 10, the context of 'one' is in relationship to Jesus and the Father as the shepherd of the flock. The flock quite obviously represents the people of God. The shepherd is represented in the following ways. Jesus says, I am the good shepherd" to whom the flock belongs and that no one can snatch them out of his hand. He than says that they also belong to the Father and no one can snatch them out of his hand. He closes this illustration then with the statement, "I and the Father are one." The question then is one what? Contextually, they are one shepherd, one owner of the flock. Always allow the context to define its own use of language. We learn from a number of O.T. passages like Psalms 23 and Ezk.34 that the Shepherd of Israel is Jehovah. The Jews to whom Jesus spoke did not miss the implication of Jesus' illustration. They knew who the Shepherd of Israel was and just who Jesus was claiming to be. Their response was to pick up stone to stone him for blasphemy, "You, being a man, make Yourself out to be God.” Although Jesus never said in his illustration "I am God" they immediately and correctly made the connection. Now, if Jesus is not God, then they not only had a right to stone him to death for blasphemy, they had an obligation to do so. If on the other hand, Jesus is God as he presented in the illustration then the people were wrong for wanting to stone him.

Then let us start at the beginning
John 1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John 1:14 tells us
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.

{John 10:30}
So were Adam and Eve...

Gen 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

they are still two individuals. One may also join himself/herself to harlot/gigolo...

1Co 6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

The point is they are still two individuals.

Jesus is in the Father, and the Father was in Jesus as He was in the flesh in the form of the Holy Spirit. You know already that all was created by Jesus, Yeshua. You know already the Child born to us is called Wonderful, Counselor, Prince of Peace, God Almighty, Everlasting Father, and He is Lord.

Providing you have read all of the Word, you know that Yahweh states on several occasions, "I am your Salvation." Salvation is the translation of the name Jesus or Yeshua completely to English. He also has declared, "I am your King." We have but One King.

It is obvious you do not want the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit to be One.

It is obvious you want to tear the revelation of just how to explain how this mystery is to be explained before Yahweh, Jesus, Yeshua, God, Lord, Holy Spirit, and more actually reveals the full understanding to all. This is true of all who are dangerously close to destroying themselves with what is falsely called knowledge in place of faith.

I know Jesus is God, because of personal revelation when the Holy Spirit entered into me, and the Father drew me to Him, and they are One.

Continue making jokes about Jesus talking to Himself. If that is the case all who pray in the Holy Spirit are doing the same.

No one has used the words, "playing dumb," in regard to your posts or their own; it does not sound like a brother in Yeshua, no, not at all. God bless you with His light.


what about the passage that says Jesus learned from the Father?Jesus will send the Holy spirit when He Ascends back to Godhead?and the greatest one difference that the time of His coming only Father knows...
what about that?

This is an example of what the church is meant to be to Christ.

Christ and the Father are not referred to as being married nor as husband and wife, neither as bride and bridegroom.
But I do agree that the church and Christ as well as husband and wife should hold the same oneness in obedient submission under leadership as Christ and the Father.

IE: we should just do whatever Jesus says and not argue

Agreed,
I believe there are still people who try to reason Jesus the human as being God.
Instead of understanding that Gods Words, being born directly from his spirit within...and voiced through word
who spoke all things into existence... it was God's spoken word, part of himself, which was manifested in the form of a man.

You have your body, your spirit, which reconcile within to form your thoughts and your will, and your words voice your message.
Can our words speak things into existence?
No
But Gods words can.
Can you convey to me what you're thinking without speaking?
No
But God can although those who don't have ears to listen must be told his thoughts with audible voice or by reading his spoken words to overcome their own thoughts and be taught.
Why else did Jesus say all authority in heaven and earth has been given to me.
All authority is in what God says.

You completely misapplied everything I said. Jesus did not cease to be God by becoming flesh. I am not certain that you quite grasp the implications of God becoming flesh.

how will you explain hwat Jesus meant as 'no one knows the hour except the Father' ?
you think i consider Godhead as 3 separate people or something?
