Question No.1
Jesus said: "I and the Father are one" (Jn.10:30), therefore, is not Jesus the same, or, "co-equal" in status with his Father?
Answer No.1
In Greek, `heis' means `one' numerically (masc.)
`hen' means `one' in unity or essence (neut.)
Here the word used by John is `hen' and not `heis'. The marginal notes in New American Standard Bible (NASB) reads; one - (Lit.neuter) a unity, or, one essence.
If one wishes to argue that the word `hen' supports their claim for Jesus being "co-equal" in status with his Father, please invite his/her attention to the following verse:
Jesus said: "And the glory which Thou hast given me, I have given
to them (disciples); that they may be one, just as we are one." (John 17:22).
If he/she was to consider/regard/believe the Father and Jesus Christ to be "one" meaning "co-equal" in status on the basis of John 10:30, then that person should also be prepared to consider/regard/believe "them" - the disciples of Jesus, to be "co-equal" in status with the Father and Jesus ("just as we are one") in John 17:22. I have yet to find a person that would be prepared to make the disciples (students) "co-equal" in status with the Father or Jesus.
The unity and accord was of the authorized divine message that originated from the Father, received by Jesus and finally passed on to the disciples. Jesus admitted having accomplished the work which the Father had given him to do. (Jn.17:4)
Hot Tip (precise and pertinent)
Jesus said: "I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I." (Jn.14:28). This verse unequivocally refutes the claim by any one for Jesus being "co-equal" in status with his Father.

God is spoke of as three different people in the bible - Father, the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit. Though he is mentioned as THREE he is still ONE God since he is the ONLY God. THe word trinity came much later after the bible was written.
And Jesus Himself claimed he was God and was called God in the bible.

John chapter 14 is a section where Jesus gives the basic outline of the Trinity.

As A Christian I'd say that the problem lies in the way most of the Christians (mostly in Bush's US) take the Bible literally so as to imply that if something is not explicitly mentioned in the text then it should be banned from the face of the earth. It's sort of a Quran's approach to the Bible. No wonder Islamist fundamentalist and US evangelicals lock horns almost daily.
By the way, the word "christian" does appear in the New Testament, but in a derogatory way.

It's for the people that want to see him and not to believe that he's just a person in heaven. If they think that Jesus is God then they can say that , because some people like to say "if i can't see it I don't believe in it"

Jesus isn't God...he is the Son of God. Do a little research before you start slamming christians.

Well, well, well...it seems that you are quite eager to show the world just how ignorant you truly are. Read the New Testament, your answers will come to you there. That is, of course, if you are truly searching, or just out to pee in the punchbowl. You are the only one to make that determination. So my question to you is, "Wat is rong with your hed?"
