2Corintihians 3:18
And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into His image with intensifying glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

This one takes a bit of deducing but nonetheless, it's awe inspiring to think about how He unites us to Them.

Matthew 3:16-17
16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. ~KJV

Exodus 3:2-4
And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush [was] not consumed. Then Moses said, "I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn." So when the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here I am."

The LORD
The Angel of the LORD
The burning fire

Genesis 15:17
And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.

The furnace
The lamp
The smoke & flame

1 John 5:7
That doesn't mean that they are the same being. Jesus prayed to the Father for His disciples to be One with the Father and Him. It means that a being is filled with the Father's Holy Spirit. The Father communicates His will and empowers through His Holy Spirit.

That verse means exactly what it says. The Holy Trinity consists of three divine persons -- the Father, the Word (the Son), and the Holy Spirit. Yet they are one God.

Are you saying that when we become One with the Father and Son, we become gods? Part of the Godhead?

THE TRINITY IN ISAIAH 49:6,7
And He [THE FATHER] said, It is a light thing that thou [CHRIST] shouldest be my Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee [CHRIST] for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my Salvation unto the end of the earth. Thus saith the LORD [THE FATHER], the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One [THE HOLY SPIRIT], to Him [CHRIST] whom man despiseth, to Him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD [THE FATHER] that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel [THE HOLY SPIRIT], and he shall choose thee [CHRIST].

It should be noted that YHWH (translated as "the LORD" (small capitals) applies to both the Father and the Son, depending on the context. This is "The Mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ".

Not at all. That verse applies to the Godhead. It has nothing to do with Christians and how God sees them.

People often say the below verse is just about Jesus, but I don't think so, because Jesus was never called those titles. I can see how Jesus is "Prince of Peace" being the Son of the King of Kings, but Jesus was never called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, or Everlasting Father. This is about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit I believe.

Isaiah 9:6
6For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Amen. It's refreshing to see someone finally understand this because, from what I have seen so far, it's rare. I believe you are blessed!

"...and the government shall be upon his shoulders..."

This is another confirmation that Isaiah 9:6 is about Christ. This speaks of Christ as King over Israel under the line of David, thus Christ has "the key of David", a symbol of ruling authority when placed upon the shoulder: And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; (Rev 3:7)

The connection between government and the key upon the shoulder is shown in Isaiah 22 where Eliakim is a type of Christ: 20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: 21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. 22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.

So this shows that the scoffers have nothing over the Word of God.

God loves the truth, but you have denied it.
This coming from someone who hold to all kinds of heretical beliefs??? See my posts above to prove that you are falsifying Scripture. Christ is the child who was born in a manger, and Christ is the King of Israel who will rule with the key of David on His shoulder.

You literally prove yourself wrong with the verse you share. It’s about Jesus.
