But when the comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me, and he also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

God the eternal Son became incarnate in Jesus Christ. Through Him all things were created, the character of God is revealed, the salvation of humanity is accomplished, and the world is judged. Forever truly God, He became also truly man, Jesus the Christ. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He lived and experienced temptation as a human being, but perfectly exemplified the righteousness and love of God. By His miracles He manifested God's power and was attested as God's promised Messiah. He suffered and died voluntarily on the cross for our sins and in our place, was raised from the dead, and ascended to minister in the heavenly sanctuary in our behalf. He will come again in glory for the final deliverance of His people and the restoration of all things.

The Bible doesn't usually have one verse that gives a complete answer. Truth is revealed throughout the Bible, that's why people quote different places. Right now, I'm learning about Satan. There are 3 different places that when put together, all make sense. If you asked me where Satan came from, I could give you an answer, but you'd still have questions. If you study Genesis 3, Ezekial and Ephesians, you will get an answer. Same with your question. There are verses that explain Son of God and places that explain son of God. Alot of it has to do with the words that are translated from the original Greek text.

John 1:8 is the answer to the only Son.Or even John 3:16
Colossians 1:16 is the answer to Jesus being the creator.
NOTE: Jesus is the mediator between God and man. When we pray Jesus hears us and he goes to the Father with our prayers.
When Jesus left he sent the Holy Spirit to comfort us and show us all things.I think that has answered all of your questions.

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the Scriptures alone quite plainly demonstrate that Jesus and the Almighty are separate distinct persons, and the Almighty created Jesus as His firstborn son.
(Colossians 1:15) the firstborn of all creation
(Mark 10:18) Jesus said to him: 'Why do you call me good? Nobody is good, except one, God.
(Revelation 3:14) the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God
(Philippians 2:5-6) Christ Jesus, who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God
(John 8:42) Neither have I come of my own initiative at all, but that One sent me forth
(John 12:49) I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak
(John 14:28) I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am
(1 Corinthians 15:28) But when all things will have been subjected to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him
(Matthew 20:23) this sitting down at my right hand and at my left is not mine to give, but it belongs to those for whom it has been prepared by my Father
(1 Corinthians 11:3) I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ; ...in turn the head of the Christ is God
(John 20:17) I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.
(Deuteronomy 6:4) Jehovah our God is one Jehovah
(1 Corinthians 8:4-6) There is no God but one. For even though there are those who are called "gods," whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many "gods" and many "lords," there is actually to us one God the Father, out of whom all things are, and we for him

There are several verses, but Leviticus 19-24 mentions it many times: "I am the Lord your God". Biblegateway.com is a great way to get quick answers.
The comforter is the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15"If you love me, you will obey what I command. 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever— 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. 18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him."
I hope I have been of some help to you, brother.

Exodus 3 documents the appearance of "the angel of the LORD" to Moses:
13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?”
14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”
REMEMBER: Moses is speaking with God (vs. 13a) and God told us He may be referred to as the "I AM." In the NT, we read this:
John 8:56 "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.” 57 Then the Jews said to Him [Jesus], “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”
58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
Jesus answered this way to demonstrate He pre-existed Abraham; however, He also tells us HE is the "I AM," the angel (messenger) of the LORD; therefore, He is God (see Exodus 3:13a).
It's not correct to state "we are all sons of God." Only those who believe Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the only Son of God and the Creator are "sons of God." (See John 1:10-13.)
Luke 24:44-45 documents Jesus telling His disciples about the deep, hidden meanings of certain Scriptures. It is from this knowledge that the apostle John wrote at John 1:
"1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. ... 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
This explains that, not only did Jesus create everything, but that He was the ONLY begotten Son of God.
Peace.

Jesus never said He was God, He said "I and the Father are one, if you have seem me you have seen the Father" They are one, of the same mind and spirit, Jesus was simply manifest "made known" in the flesh. It simply means they have the same nature.
He created it all, scripture says " In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made, without Him nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. This is from John 1:1-5
The comforter is of course the Holy Spirit that dwells in us when we are converted and He bears witness in our hearts of Christ. Yes we pray to the Father which is what Jesus taught and we know that Christ is our advocate with the Father which Paul taught. And as Christ himself said "NO MAN CAN COME UNTO THE FATHER BUT BY ME"
