Two different beings.

Jesus and the Father are One in the Holy Spirit.
Saying Jesus and God are different beings is the heresy first taught by Nestorius in the 4th century, and was corrected at the Council of Ephesis.
When you reject the authoritive teaching Church, the old heresies come back. Thats why Nestorianism is so prevailant in much (not all) of Protestantism.
Exodus 3:14 - God says "I AM who I AM" -
John 8:58 - Jesus says "Before Abraham was, I AM" in reference to Himself.
John 10:30 - Jesus says, "I and the Father are one." They are equal. The Jews even claimed Jesus made Himself equal to God. Jesus' statement in John 14:28, "the Father is greater than I," cannot contradict John 10:30 (the Word of God is never in conflict). Jesus' statement in John 14:28 simply refers to His human messianic role as servant and slave, which He, and not the Father or the Holy Spirit, undertook in the flesh.
Rev. 1:8 - God says He is the "Alpha and the Omega." In Rev. 22:13, Jesus also says He is the "Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the beginning and the end." The only possible conclusion one can reach is that Jesus is equal to the Lord God.
Rev. 1:17 - Jesus says again, "I am the First and the Last." This is in reference to the God prophesied by Isaiah in Isaiah 44:6, 41:4, 48:12.

To think that Jesus is God that took human form is to believe in mythologies that were created eons ago when people cannot find the answers to their quest for being different from other creatures moving, flying and swimming in places each specie live to exist.
While early humans may have experienced talking with animals or trees and plants, it could explain human ability to understand every existing form with life, was because their mind could have been like those of the child who lives in the world of make belief.
God is God from the beginning as the source of all things that has the breath of his life in it. He does not need to go down from somewhere up there because he is everything that he created like a painters signature on his artwork. He picked Jesus up among us like he picked Adam, Noah, Abraham, Jacob,Moses, David and Solomon to do his biddings. He calls them their Sons just as he calls the Jews His chosen children not because they are so special to Him but because He wanted them to be the nation that will show who is HE to the world. The chaos we have however are the results of a job not well done. Generations will come and generations will go and just like God, the earth will stand the same and from this generation to another, HE will never come down to take human form to save mankind from their faults. That is the biggest blasphemy and biggest lie man have created about him.

Jesus, in the begining, was part God and part Human, otherwise what did God need Mary for!
God walked the Earth once, he isn't shy.
God created before, he could have done it again.
Instead God showed how much we are all alike.
Jesus, coming from God's seed, is far closer to God than we are. We are not God's direct seed but a creation made from breath and elements of the Earth.
Try blowing on a girl to make a baby with her. How's that for sex! Think it will work! God can make things that way, but can you!
Did Jesus blow on on Earth and make a man?
Did Jesus NOT argue with God in the Gardens about God's plan and God's will!
Or are you saying it was rhetorical.

God came to earth in human form so that He could get a better understanding of His creation. Also to show us that He cares for us by giving the ultimate sacrifice - His death on the cross for our sins. God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are all the same. The Trinity. You can think of them as separate, in a way, but they were always connected, and they for sure reconnected when Jesus rose from the grave and later ascended into Heaven.

John 1: 1-5
Before the world was created, the Word already existed; he was with God, and he was the same as God. 2 From the very beginning the Word was with God. 3 Through him God made all things; not one thing in all creation was made without him. 4 The Word was the source of life, and this life brought light to mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out.
John 1:14
14. The Word became a human being and, full of grace and truth, lived among us. We saw his glory, the glory which he received as the Father's only Son.

God was "IN" Christ reconciling the world unto Himself. Jesus was a man. The sacrificial "Lamb of God." He died....I f Jesus was God, then the Romans killed God. I don't think so. Calling Jesus God is why the Trinity is confusing to many people. The Trinity consists of the Father, The Son (Christ), and the Holy Spirit (Hagio Pneuma). Today, Jesus is at the right hand of God. Christ is in us, the mystery of the ages.

I think God is the father of Jesus, and that God is a mighty human form in heaven and Jesus is a guardian angel form in heaven, but there is no fighting in heaven so it wouldn't matter how big or small you are.

God The Father, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit are three different but exist in one that is Trinity God. It may be confusing. But if you go through the Holy Bible you will understand the secret.

God(Allah) has no partners. Those who associate partners with Allah are wrongdoers and will face punishment hereafter.
Abraham,Moses,jesus were the prophets and messengers of Allah.They were chosen for delivering God`s message for their respective people.
The final messenger and prophet was Muhammed(peace be upon him).
Allah did not send many prophets to make different religions.
Like jesus too delivered God`s message.But after he "passed away" some man or men interfered with the Word of God and wrongly said that Jesus was son of God.
Bible contains prophecies of muhammed`s Arrival .
One needs to find out the truth keeping his heart open for the same

jesus was God's son. But it was also God in human form which is peculiar because why on earth would God want to belittle Himself by forming Himself into a human. Christians believe in one god. We are monotheistic. Father Son and Holy Spirit are the same thing.
