RCD, you seem to be in left field and didn’t actually respond to my response to on the anti-Christs. Anyhow, I’m pretty sure saying Jesus is 1/3 of God is some kind of heresy.
He’s not a portion of God, but is 100% God and 100% man (not that makes any logical sense ) quote:
The Biblical Holy Trinity as it were.; Father, Son and Hily Spirit
Well man I hate to say this but there is no Trinity in the Bible. That’s why it took the church fathers nearly 400 years to come to an “agreement” on the rationalization of all the biblical contradictions to make them seem like they didn’t contradict. That’s why Jesus is both 100% God and 100% man and none of it makes any sense - because it’s a mystery and beyond our comprehension, which in my opinion is retarded.
Make no mistake though, there is no Trinity in the Bible, but plenty of verses to argue the opposite of this late 4th century construct.

I’m “in left field “ no doubt, HE; and I worked hard to get there. Never believed or would accept the mundane version of Reality.
I did not intend to disrespectfully pass over your point, albeit I am inclined to wander between related subjects. I absolutely agree that Jesus IS God, but also note that when some attempted to worship Him as such, he chastised them and subordinated Himself to God the Father. Though he admitted that “I and the Father are one”. It is impossible for people to agree re the very complex and abstract nature of things of the Spirit, as at some point they become subjective. What truly Christian people can and should agree upon is the feeling of Love. That was the whole point of Jesus’s message and THE qualifier for entrance into spiritual ‘Heaven’. Anyone who rises high on this level will neither need to argue over relatively tangential and non critical issues, or likely care to, especially if such negates live. Other than a few yahoos like myself, whose nature inclines such.
Given the civilizational Knowledge dynamics, big stuff is right around the corner. Whether such ultimately falls in line with the Biblical Eschatological Narrative remains to be seen.
God speed.

I’m glad you saw that because I did too. You have to be careful though because often times in the Greek, the terms that we would best translate as “God” and “god” and “divine” are very close and depend on the context and depend on the definite article (or no article). Where Jesus is called “Theos” (Greek transliteration) it confers qualitative deity- what we would call “divine”. Jesus is never called “ton Theon” (the God) which is what they called the father. The problem is, because of the dogmas of the English Bible translators, they translate “Theos” (a god or godlike in the qualitative sense but not THE God capital G) into capital G God. Then guys you you read it and assume that the author is saying Jesus is capital G God in the same way that the father is capital G God.
quote:
Though he admitted that “I and the Father are one”.
He also said he wants his followers to be one in the same sense that he is one with his father. John 17:20-21
So if it makes Jesus part of a trinity with God because he is one with God, then if believers are one with Jesus in the same way, then you are also God. Almost everyone who uses the “I and the father are one” verse conveniently forget about John 17.

I have a ‘Trinity Riddle’ philosophical exercise which I have shared with friends and colleagues; depicted on a chalkboard. We’ve had some fun with that as the Bible Thumpers get their juices flowing. You’d enjoy it.
I posted the essential ideas in a thread a while back, but as suits too wordy and like trying to describe the color red to someone who has Inly seen yellow and blue. (No condescension, as I have zero comprehension of E=Mc2).
Honestly I am inclined to think that spiritual vision depends more on the gift of the Holy Spirit than intellect anyway.
Be well HE. Love to you and yours.
