the Garden while sweating blood? Who was he talking to on the cross? Why did he tell his mother he was about his father's business?

He was talking to God.

Yeshua was praying to the heavenly father which is actually Adonai Shem or Elohim.... Yeshua is not god, that idea came from the Apostate church of Antioch run by Paul..
I suggest you people to read the Jesus legacy... It is clear evident that he was a great man and a messiah, but a man nonetheless who needs god's help in order to restore the sanctity of the temple in jeruslaem from bloody Gentile-herodian influence....
By the way, there are two Messiahs during that time. The Messiah of Aaron which is John the baptist and the Messiah of israel which is jesus !!!!

In complete agreement.
Professor Wolfson of Harvard University explains in The Crucible of Christianity that in the second century, there was a great influx into Christianity of “philosophically trained gentiles. As Wolfson states: “The [church] Fathers began to look in the stockpile of philosophic terminology for two good technical terms, of which one would be used as a designation of the reality of the distinctness of each member of the Trinity as an individual and the other would be used as a designation of their underlying common unity.” Yet, they had to admit that “the conception of a triune God is a mystery which cannot be solved by human reason.”
In contrast, Paul had clearly recognized the danger of such contamination and ‘perversion of the good news’ when he wrote to the Galatian and Colossian Christians: “Look out: perhaps there may be someone who will carry you off as his prey through the philosophy [Greek, phi·lo·so·phi´as] and empty deception according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary things of the world and not according to Christ.” --Galatians 1:7-9; Colossians 2:8; 1 Corinthians 1:22, 23.
THIS confusion is widespread. The Encyclopedia Americana notes that the doctrine of the Trinity is considered to be “beyond the grasp of human reason.”

it is very simple, Jesus is not god he is just a messenger sent down to warn the people and try to prevent them from doing any bad deeds.
Jesus was never crucified either. god lifted him up and turned the leader of the army to look like Jesus. Jesus was a Muslim

Sorry, I'm with you. seems like two different people to me. if he was "Demonstrating" how to approach god then why do it in private in the garden? why demonstrate it while on the cross. Seems like a mundane lesson to be taught while something much more important (let alone painful) was going on. I believe Christ and God are two people just like you and me. they are "one" just as different people are in "one" team or group, with "one" goal or purpose. Sorry, no "Trinity", where is that in the Bible?

Matthew 7:6
Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

Christ was in human form and in all ways human, which means he would have to communicate with God exactly as we do. I think he was also demonstrating to us, by his actions, how to approach God.

Funny thing. Nine times out of ten, when you answer a question, you answer with your mantra: "there is no god" or "god doesn't exist". So why do you ask this?
