Jesus is the Son of Jehovah God! NOT GOD!
Jehovah God’s spirit poured out upon Jesus doubtless illuminated his mind on many points. His own expressions thereafter, and particularly the intimate prayer to his Father (Jehovah) on Passover night, 33 C.E., show that Jesus recalled his prehuman existence and the things he had heard from his Father (Jehovah) and the things he had seen his Father do, as well as the glory that he himself had enjoyed in the heavens. (Joh 6:46; 7:28, 29; 8:26, 28, 38; 14:2; 17:5) It may well have been that the memory of these things was restored to him at the time of his baptism and anointing.

The trinity consists of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. Christ was speaking of God The Father.

At John 7:28,29 Jesus Christ is speaking about Jehovah God, not himself
and Jesus is not God, But is his Son.

Well, the short answer is Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit are one in essence. So yes, Jesus is God. Here's a real quick definition of the Trinity-
God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, one in essence, each an uncreated person, equal in power and authority.
When someone calls God the "Father" or "Son" they are using these names to refer to A specific member of the Threefold Godhead. This is also a way to express the economy of the Trinity. The Son submits to the Father, and the Holy Spirit submits to the Son and Father. They are equal in power and glory because their wills are one in the same. Jonathan Edward explains how this can be in detail if you want a quick theological\philosophical answer.

He speaks of God the Father. I personally believe just by the expressions Jesus gives that they are both individuals, and what we (Who believe) know as being transparent and possesor of all power is the Holy Spirit. Through the Holy Spirit did Mary gave birth to Jesus. If you study closely precept by precept within the New Testament Christ starts to do amazing mircales right after the baptism and gaing the Holy Spirit that came down in the form of a dove. When God says he is omnipresent he means he is everywhere spiritually by the power of the Holy Spirit.

John 7: 25 - 31 is all about Christ's Orgin from the Father (God)
John is indeed a very interesting book, a lot of miracles happen in the book of John.

yes, as a matter of fact, it does. Also, John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. John 1:14 And the Word was made 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.
There are many more scriptures saying that Jesus is God in the flesh.

(John 7:28-29) “28Â Therefore Jesus cried out as he was teaching in the temple and said: “YOU both know me and know where I am from. Also, I have not come of my own initiative, but he that sent me is real, and YOU do not know him. 29Â I know him, because I am a representative from him, and that One sent me forth.””
--Why would you think this might indicate he is God?
--He says he came on his own initiative--or his own free will, no pressure from God? Is that not a possibility.
--The word "initiative" has flexibility in its meaning, does it not?
In a cross reference:
(John 8:42) “42Â Jesus said to them: “If God were YOUR Father, YOU would love me, for from God I came forth and am here. Neither have I come of my own initiative at all, but that One sent me forth.”
--Could that not mean it was Jehovah God's idea, and that he had suggested that to Christ? Is that not a strong possibility?

Jesus is GOD. Jesus is the second person of the holy trinity. Jesus is God the son. God is three eternal beings.
Genesis: God said, Let US make man in OUR image...etc.etc. (notice God is plural)

The doctrin of the trinity came about in the second century after Christ and was not part of the belief system of the apostles or the early church. Look at John 7:39
