I like Timeless' answer, since we call God our Father does that mean we are gods too with her logic?

The website below is pretty clean. It just gives the history of how man created the three god theory. It's anti trinity actually.

i'm thinking for people who say that Jesus isn't God. What do you think of approximately verses interior the Bible like John a million:a million? "interior the commencing up replaced into the be conscious, and the be conscious replaced into with God, and the be conscious replaced into God." in case you look into the Bible you will understand that the be conscious it relatively is refered to right this is Jesus. So, that's asserting that Jesus is the be conscious and hence replaced into with God and replaced into additionally God interior the commencing up. There are all varieties of approaches to decribe how this may be obtainable although that's annoying for our human minds to absolutely understand God. God is 3 persons and the Bible does say that they are 3 persons, yet purely one God. God the father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. a three leaf clover has already been used and that i think of it relatively is a large anology, yet there is likewise an egg. For some reason i like this one greater advantageous. in basic terms like the three leaf clover it has 3 areas, yet there is completely one egg. interior the egg there is the egg yoke, the egg white and the egg shell. See, 3 diverse areas to the egg, yet purely one egg. interior an identical way there is 3 diverse areas to God, yet purely one God.

Jesus never came out and said "I am God in the Flesh"
This is what is interpreted by him saying, "The father and I are one" Which IMO means that Jesus had not control over his actions, because he was made to be fully obedient and 'perfect' human in God's eyes so he could teach us how to act, and react to certain situations.
Then John says that in the beginning was the word and the word was with god and the word was god. Which could mean that Jesus was the word, which was God, or it could mean again the above argument, that Jesus was a reflection of God's ideal human.
The translation can be taken anyway one wants to take it, unless you speak Greek and lived in that era, it would be hard to understand if this was a 'romantic description' or a literal one.
Since the bible doesn't say. Jesus is God in the flesh. I take it for what it does say. Jesus was unable to do wrong because he was doing the work of God. He was God's son, he was to be the Prince of Peace, etc.

Jehovah's Witnesses are Christians who teach that Jesus Christ was and is divine and of the same nature as God.

Jehovah's Witnesses teach that no salvation occurs without Christ, that accepting Christ's sacrifice is a requirement for true worship, that every prayer must acknowledge Christ, that Christ is the King of God's Kingdom, that Christ is the head of the Christian congregation, that Christ is immortal and above every creature, even that Christ was the 'master worker' in creating the universe!

Jehovah's Witnesses love and respect and honor Christ. But Jehovah's Witnesses recognize the bible truth that Jesus the Son is distinct from and not equal to God the Father (see Scriptures below).

The Scriptures 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

Thanks again for an opportunity to share what the bible actually says about the distinct persons of Jesus Christ the Son and Jehovah God the Father!

Jesus was the Human incarnation of God. Jesus says and shows he is God in the bible. One place Jesus says he is God is John 8:58 and also one of his disciples proclaims he is God in John 20:28.

This is not necesarily my opinion, but this is why they believe it:
In the bible Jesus says, "I and the father are one" and a lot of other verses of the like. Christians take this as jesus is god and god is jesus.

because Jesus, God the Father and the Holy Spirit are all God. It is called the Holy Trinity.
one Godhead in three parts......
much the same as a man can be a father, a son and a plumber....
all at the same time, without being three separate
people.

Because there are various passages in the Bible that tell us God is Three Persons that make up One.

There's a song that has the words,
God in Three Persons, Blessed Trinity.
