John 17:21
that they all may be one, as You, Father, [are] in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.

This gives a set theoretical description. Christ is in the Father and the Father is in Christ. This proves equality.

You only drew the Son in the Father with your rectangles, not the Father in the Son. You are showing the Father not contained in the Son, but the reality is that 'in Him all the fullness of the godhead dwells'

IOW rectangle A = rectangle B.
John 10: 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
John 10: 18 The Father issues commands and the Son obeys.

Heb 1: 8 But unto the Son He saith, Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of thy kingdom.
Heb 1: 8 The Father gives Jesus a kingdom to rule forever, made up of righteous beings who worship Him as a God. Notice that He doesn't say , "of our kingdom", although Christ's kingdom is part of the Father's kingdom.

Heb 1: 4 Being made so much better than the angels, as He hath by inheritance obtained a more excellant name than they.
Heb 1: 4 "Being made " can only mean what it says. " by inheritance " means that because He was the first creation of the Father, He inherits special privileges, standing, and honor ( just like the Old Testament concerning the first born son).

Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.
Eph 1:2 ...from God, our Father....and from the Lord Jesus Christ...

The Father is Father and God of both us and Jesus Christ. We are not equal to the Father and neither is Christ. We are in Christ and Christ is in the Father because we posses the Father's Spirit which was given to Jesus when He was glorified and to us when we put all our faith and trust in the Father's plan for our salvation through Jesus Christ. We receive all spiritual blessings because we are part of Jesus' spiritual body. In Eph 1: 2 , Grace and peace come from two different entities. If they were the same entities, then it would have sufficed to say just from either one.

It is not the same thing. God is Almighty and can do anything He wills. Lower beings are the ones that pray to Him because He is Supreme.

John 17: 3 " And this is life eternal, that they might know Thee, the ONLY TRUE GOD , and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent."
How important is it to understand the Trinity? To those that claim that the Trinity is a mystery beyond our understanding, from a brother who loves you, you had better do a better job of investigating before giving up and declaring " It's a mystery." Knowing the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the basis for understanding Scripture. Jesus is the Christ. He is our Lord, our God, and our Savior, but the Father is the One God of all ( including Jesus).
Eph 1: 3 Blessed be the GOD and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ,
It is the Father who is the God of Jesus and who blesses us with spiritual blessings in Christ. We are in Christ when we become part of Christ's body. This happens when we receive the Father's Spirit which was given to Jesus when Jesus was glorified.
Who is the IAM that appeared to Moses and spoke with him???
Was it the Father? the Son? or the Holy Spirit?

John 8:58 ASV - "Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was born, I am."

Could it be . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Jesus? Who is also God? Who is also said to do the same Work as the Spirit?

I thought that I had explained that in a previous post. If there was one throne for the two of them , it would have read " the throne of God and the lamb". " The throne of God and of the Lamb" means " the throne of God and the throne of the Lamb". Christ has a kingdom and a throne within the kingdom of the Father ( who also has a kingdom and a throne). You need to read my posts.

"
throne" is singular. not two thrones. the right arm of the LORD is also the LORD.

one throne.
God & THE LAMB.

Exodus 6:3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.

Christ's name is JEHOVAH and He represented the Father in the Old Testament. The Father spoke and performed His work through Christ then as He does now. The God of the Old Testament is Christ representing the Father in words and deeds. Christ was not idle until He became human.
