My love to you reaches St John's and Halifax and surrounding farm lands to this very hour. Songs are being sung, widows are being visited, love is being shared in hospitals, and grain is likely now in harvest.

After all the "discussion" over the weekend about Jesus's name ( Yeshua, Messiah, etc)
He's worth so much more than to be an object of disagreements. Am I the only one who felt like crying?

Acts 17
29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the GODHEAD is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.

THE GODHEAD SCRIPTURES
Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7
1 John 5:7.
John 10:30, I and My Father are one.
My favorite is Malachi 3:16-17. God listens when we talk together abut Him.
Also, in these following scriptures , we clearly see the Godhead ( Acts 17:27-30) speaking to each other.
NOTE: In the King James Bible, the words , TRINITY and TRIUNE,
ARE NOT used!!! Someone who was unable to teach LET US as a lesson, used these other words to describe, Three.
If you had used the Search Box provided on this website you would have seen it come up with NOTHING for triune and Trinity. No further comment is needed.

Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7; 1 John 5:7
John 10:30 and Acts 17: 27-30
Write those down. It comes up in conversation a lot.
I'd like to share an alternate viewpoint if you are open to it.
Do you believe that Jesus often spoke parables? These stories and metaphors were a means for teaching and he explained why he used them: Luke 8:10
So, when Jesus said to eat his flesh and blood in John 6:53 did he literally mean to kill him and resort to cannibalism? I believe not, based on all his previous metaphors. Even his followers knew it was symbolic, but didn't quite understand the symbolism yet.
Jesus also said a few verses earlier in John 6:35 that he's the bread of life. Does that mean he's literally a loaf of bread walking and talking? It was a metaphor.
Jesus also explained the purpose of communion in Luke 22:19. Do it in remembrance of Him. If the goal was to literally eat and drink Jesus then you would think he would not have said this. It suggests the whole purpose of communion is to remember Jesus and His sacrifice for our sins and not that we're supposed to literally eat and drink him as food.
Also Jesus says John 14:6, John 10:9, Acts 4:12 that he's the only way for salvation. Not a man. So, I feel if a religion uses another man, like a Pope, in-between you and Jesus that you must go through then it is a false teaching inconsistent with scripture.
God bless!

I hope these are helpful
It is my opinion that we are to pray to the Father in the name of Jesus. Jesus said no one comes to the father but through me. That doesn't automatically mean we switch and start worshiping and praying to Jesus only. Jesus is the pathway; he said he's the way to get to the Father. It doesn't say the Father is the way to get to Jesus, or that Jesus is the way to get to Jesus. So, I believe it implies that we are trying to follow Jesus to lead us to the Father. John 14:6. Jesus intercedes for us. Romans 8:34. It said to follow Jesus in His example, but no where in the Bible am I aware of it saying to worship and sing songs solely to Jesus.
Of course confusion is not surprising as it says Jesus and God the Father are one. Of course, they're separate to some extent, but united. We just don't know to what extent they are united or as 'one'. John 10:30.
John 7:16-18. Jesus was sent by God the Father. He was presenting information pre-approved by God the Father. There is a slight hierarchy in my opinion. So, I think to pray to Jesus and worship Jesus is not supported by scripture in my opinion. But if I hear someone praying to Jesus and praising Him I do not see that as offensive.
God bless...
What Jesus demonstrated was that he had power to lay down his life and then take it again. ( John 10:18).
Admittedly the character of Christians is too often a ready excuse for unbelief.
Marginal medicine majors on the malady while repudiating the remedy.
1. Heavenly or Fallen Angels can not procreate according to biblical scripture. ( Matt. 22:30; Mark 12:25; Luke 20:34)
2. The Nephilium were present before, at the time, and after the sons of God and daughters of man had ***. They can't be their offspring, because they would have to be born first.
3. Sons of God could mean holy Angels or holy men according to scripture. ( Job 1:6; 2:1), ( Psalm 82:6, Hos. 1:10; John 10:34-38, Matt. 5:9; Luke 3:38; Rom. 8:14)
* The sons of God are the renown men of old(from seth's lineage)and were tempted by the Nephilium (Fallen angels) to lust the daughters of men(from Cain's lineage).
If we were more sensitive we would feel that too when we sin knowing full well that we are doing it.
A conscience that feels no pain is seared. just like a strip steak you throw on a burning hot skillet.
Jesus suffered through pain of separation for every human mentioned in John 3:16. All humanity: from Genesis to Revelation.

Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7
1 John 5:7.
John 10:30, I and My Father are one.
Malachi 3:16-17. God listens when we talk together abut Him.
If you persist with trying to confuse people with Triune and Trinity, then you are opposing yourself.
Everyone here has the responsibility to search what we say. Is it scripture??
Quit being lazy and look this stuff up.

Also, in these following scriptures , we clearly see the Godhead ( Acts 17:27-30) speaking to each other.
Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:37
1 John 5:7.
John 10:30, I and My Father are one.
My favorite is Malachi 3:16-17. God listens when we talk together abut Him.

Hope that helps!
Here are verses showing the Godhead speaking amongst themselves.
Different ministries, functions, but all three United in purpose. The LET US. From Genesis to the New Testament.
Genesis 1:26
Genesis 3:22
Genesis 11:7
1 John 5:7

Acts 17:27-30
Please write these on the back page of your Bible. People ask this question frequently.

Galatians 3:29 "And if ye be Christ's, then ARE YE are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
nothing about we "BECOME" or "SPIRITUAL SEED" it says ARE YE the seed of Abraham.
I believe Christians are the chosen seed.
Others want to believe those who deny Christ, who are ANTICHRISTS, are the chosen seed.
please prove to me the antichrists are God's chosen from the Bible.
King James Bible Jesus speaks to some of the Jews in John 10:23 - 29:And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. Then came the JEWS (THE JEWS) round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
"But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you."
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Jesus said his sheep hear his voice and well I believe him.
Jesus in bible book Revelation 2:9 - I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
2nd witness of Jesus in Revelation 3:9 "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee." Jews are going to worship at the feet of Christians.
Did you know the Lord DIVORCED ISRAEL?
Jeremiah 3:8 "And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also."
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
How can anyone tell me that those who have the wrath of God against them for rejecting the Son is the "chosen people"

But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
Looks to me that those who hear the voice of Jesus are true sheep or the chosen people.
Concerning Jesus and God being two separate entities.
Very well explained.
God and Jesus are NOT the same entity.
John 10:30
"I and My Father are One"
The word "One" is the Greek word "hen" and is given in the neutral form of speech. This means that they are one in "essence" not one person, which would be in the masculine form of speech, and would use the Greek word "heis."
If the words of John 10:30 are to be taken literally, what do people that believe this do with John 10:29 (as well as ALL other verses, including the ones you mention)?
"My Father,which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father's hand."
I suppose this means "I, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My hand."
And John 10:30 would have to read; "I and Myself are One."
Seems like a lot of explaining has to be done here for these statements to make sense if God is Jesus and Jesus is God.
And please don't try and say that Jesus is God in flesh. Again, the understanding of figures of speech must be taken account for.
I would not want to be in the unenviable position of trying to uphold a position as truth while I am denying proper grammar and plain Scripture that is using OBVIOUS figures of speech.
Not a page of the word of God can be turned without the use of Figures of Speech."
Figures of speech are a LEGAL part of English grammar that follow rules, not something that is arbitrarily used by the reader whenever he or she feels the urge.
Taking literal what God states as figurative and taking figurative what God is states is literal is a fundamental reason why people misunderstand the word of God.
The Godhead is Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
