If jesus is god then how come told them to prey to some other being in heaven and not him? what i mean is, if I need money from my friend and i see him in the street the next day with a pocket full of money, i am not going to go home and spend hours writing a letter and faxing him, no, i will ask him for the money then and there. If jesus is god why didnt the people prey to him then and there instead of preying to the other being!!!!

I hope this will make sense to you.
Suppose a father (it can be your father) has a son. Now, obviously there is a difference between them!! But there is also something we cannot deny, they share a quality common to all people - they are both human. So is Christ and the Almighty God! They are both God, yet uniquely different.

You are wrong with this. The Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit are the 3 faces of the ONE living God. Son (Jesus) is the God, but He is not the Father or the Holy Spirit. Father is the God but He is not the Son or the Holy Spirit. And the Holy Spirit is the God but It is not the Father or the Son.
They are not 3 gods. They all are the God. You understand now ? If you prey to God , you prey to the Holy Triad.

Jesus is not God.
Our Creator, Yahweh God is a distinct separate Great Spirit.
He has His OWN Name.
The first of His creations was His Archangel Michael, His only begotten Son.
The Son was with Him when all other things were created and they were created for Michael and through Michael by Yahweh God.
Michael was there by his Father's side for billions of our years learning from the Father and becoming one in thought with the Father and doing all things to please his Father.
God is too great and too glorious to come to earth as a person.
He sent His Son (and he was willing) as the final sacrifice for the sins of humans by which all mankind can be saved and receive everlasting life--here on earth--not in heaven.
It is so simple and yet it boggles the minds of the unbelievers, those with little or no faith.

People who walked when Jesus walked, when they needed something from him, like healing, they worshiped him and then he healed them. Of coarse, not everyone worshiped him. Worship is one of the 7 forms of prayer. You pray to God the Father through Jesus the Son.

Jesus never made claims to his divinity. He said he was Gods son, not God.
Not saying I dont beleive in the trinity ; just making a point.

John 1 makes it clear that the Messiah YAHOSHUA created all things. However during the time He lived here as a man, He was limited by humanity. He was divine, but had clothed His divinity in humanity. Because He was limited (in time and space) He referred suppliants to His Father who was in Heaven. many people did make requests of Him, and He did heal the sick, and even raise the dead! You really need to read more Scripture. (and also use spell check)

Simply stated: There is but ONE true God, and salvation of the eternal soul thru His Son, Jesus.
Open your heart and mind to the love and mercy of the one true God and all of your questions will be answered.

because while being a representation of god, he was still a man. Men don't live forever. He was kind of like a commercial, in a sort, telling you to go get food from bi-lo. You end up wanting some food by seeing that commercial(hypothetically), and then you go to bi-lo. Weird analogy, but it was the first to come to mind.

Because Jesus is the son of God while he was on earth he was human just like you or me. God is the creator, Jesus is of him.
