God is only one, no question about that. It only shows that he is only a prophet asking for guidance and help to the Almighty.
And you must remember that jesus told us that God is a spirit, that has no flesh & bones, but Jesus has flesh & bones, he sleep but God never sleep, he eat but God never eat, he died in the cross according to you. Can you imagine God died in the cross, just what will happen to the universe if God died 3 days & 3 nights. If you are saying that jesus is God incarnate, then show us your proof & basis from the bible. Even the word Incarnation cannot be found in the bible.

-> Jesus is not a prophet, He is God. He is the only person in the world who dare to say that He is God. You can search for it in John. (its a situation where one of His disciple ask Him how God look likes, and He answered, "you are looking at Him right now".)
Jesus told us that God is a spirit, that has no flesh & bones, but Jesus has flesh & bones, he sleep but God never sleep, he eat but God never eat, he died in the cross according to you.
-> If God descent to the earth and show His true form, i bet each and everyone in this world will trust Him 200%, human will be like robots that have been programmed to worship Him. If you (human) need to tell a colony of ant about danger, you must be an ant to be able to communicate with them. Can you see? God is willing to be a human that is weak and helpless just to be a 'bridge' between us; human, and Father.
If you are saying that jesus is God incarnate, then show us your proof & basis from the bible. Even the word Incarnation cannot be found in the bible.
-> He is risen, because He is a God. Don't play with fact and proof with God. Don't ask why He is 3 but in one form? If there is Father, where is the Mother? Human is like an ant, they only know that human is big can do many things but they cannot understand human as a whole such as human feelings, pain and thought. If they do, then there is no different between human and ant. Thats a miracle of Jesus, He is Son of God, He is the God, He is the Holy Spirit. Why? Why? Why? Thats it. Its a fact that human will cannot understand it until God tell you about it Himself. If He is the Son, and born from a father and mother cells, then He is no different with us.
p.s - Christian lives by faith and not by sight.

Excellent question, you get a star for this question.
Jesus is NOT God, nor the son of God. Jesus is just a messanger, just like Moses & Muhammad (PBUH). There is only one God, and believe it or not, God does NOT have children.
The Quraan says:
In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
[112:1] Proclaim, "He is the One and only GOD.
[112:2] "The Absolute GOD.
[112:3] "Never did He beget. Nor was He begotten.
[112:4] "None equals Him."

When Jesus prayed he was praying to God the father. In the Bible it says 'In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.....and the word became flesh and dwelt among us' which shows that Jesus is both God and man.

I believe in God and in Jesus. I do not think they both are same. But there is a very close bond between them,
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; John 14:11
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Jesus was God in human form. Jesus was created to be a human so he could die on the cross and shed his blood as a slaughtered lamb for our sins. Jesus prayed to God as a human (as we do) praying to God asking his Father to take away this burden of having to die from our sins. God had to turn His face filled with pain and let Jesus (His Son) die and do this for us. God loves us that much! God wants us in fellowship with Him. God is the Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Ghost all 3 in 1! All this information is found in the Bible. Go explore for yourself.

Matt. 4:7; Luke 4:12 - Jesus tells satan, "you shall not tempt the Lord your God" in reference to Himself.
Matt. 5:21-22; 27-28; 31-32; 33-34; 38-39; 43-44 - Jesus makes Himself equal to God when He declares, "You heard it said...but I say to you.."
Matt. 7:21-22; Luke 6:46 - not everyone who says to Jesus, "Lord, Lord." Jesus calls Himself Lord, which is God.
Matt. 9:2; Mark 2:5; Luke 5:20; 7:48 - Jesus forgives sins. Only God can forgive sins.
Matt. 12:8; Mark 2:28; Luke 6:5 - Jesus says that He is "Lord of the Sabbath." He is the Lord of God's law which means He is God.
Matt. 18:20 - Jesus says where two or three are gathered in His name, there He is in the midst of them.
Matt. 21:3; Luke 19:31,34 - Jesus calls himself "Lord." "The Lord has need of them."
Matt. 26:64; Mark 14:62; Luke 22:70 - Jesus acknowledges that He is the Son of God.
Matt. 28:20 - Jesus said He is with us always, even unto the end of the world. Only God is omnipresent.
Mark 14:36 - Jesus calls God "Abba," Aramaic for daddy, which was an absolutely unprecedented address to God and demonstrates Jesus' unique intimacy with the Father.
Luke 8:39 - Luke reports that Jesus said "tell how much God has done for you." And the man declared how much Jesus did.
Luke 17:18 - Jesus asks why the other nine lepers did not come back to give praise to Him, God, except the Samaritan leper.
Luke 19:38,40 - Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. If these were silent, the very stones would cry out.
John 5:18 - Jesus claimed to be God. The Jews knew this because Jesus called God His Father and made Himself equal to God. This is why Jesus was crucified.
John 5:21-22 - Jesus gives life and says that all judgment has been given to Him by the Father.
John 5:23 - Jesus equates Himself with the Father, "whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him."
John 6:38 - Jesus says, "For I have come down from heaven."
John 8:12 - Jesus says "I am the light of the world." - 1 John 1:5 - God is light and in him there is no darkness at all.
John 8:19 - Jesus says, "if you knew me, you would know my Father also."
John 8:23 - Jesus says that He is not of this world. Only God is not of this world.
John 8:58 - Jesus says, "Before Abraham was, I AM." Exodus 3:14 - "I AM" means "Yahweh," which means God.
John 10:18 - Jesus says He has the power to lay down His life and take it up again - Gal. 1:1 - God raised Jesus to life.
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.
John 10:36 - again, Jesus claims that He is "the Son of God."

Jesus, I believe, is the Son of God!
And so are we all..since God made us!
So where's the conflict? It's in the mind..too narrow ..and not in the definition of the almighty.

Oh, no! Another reasonable question! Don't let the 'unreasonable' God see this one! His followers may attack you for intelligence. Don't you know, He's praying to Himself? His Divine Character shows paranoid/schizoprenia,
but then, most 'creative' minds (prophets) do! Check it out!
Joh 7:19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?
Joh 7:20 The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?
But wait, there's more:
Joh 7:25 Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
What's this? Bounty hunters? Hmm... Maybe not as paranoid as He seems...

Do not look for any organized relgion's doctrine to be entirely
self-consistant.
That's not what religion is for.
Religion offers spiritual guidance, gives you a sense of community
and a common sense of purpose.
None of the big religions are entirely free of inconsistancies.
