for those complaining about language I could've said words like "$#!T" "F**K" "@$$" etc, what is so wrong with saying "hell" which you all use when trying to get atheists to believe in god?

You are 100% it doesn't matter because Jesus is God, God is Jesus, and Jesus is the Holy Spirit.

Jesus called God "the only true God." (John 17:3) Never did he refer to God as a deity of plural persons. That is why nowhere in the Bible is anyone but Jehovah called Almighty. Otherwise, it voids the meaning of the word "almighty." Neither Jesus nor the holy spirit is ever called that, for Jehovah alone is supreme. At Genesis 17:1 he declares: "I am God Almighty." And Exodus 18:11 says: "Jehovah is greater than all the other gods."

The Holy Trinity, Farther, Son and the Holy Ghost. The Farther is God, The son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three Gods. But one God! In the Trinity of persons the son(Jesus) is begotten of the Father by an eternal generation, and the Holy Spirit proceeds by an eternal procession from the Farther and the son. yet, not with standing this difference in origin. The persons are co-eternal and co-equal. All alike are uncreated and omnipotent. They are the same, and they are different.

I was one who did not condemn nor did I judge. I know I did not, because that just is not who I am today.
I kinda think of Christ and God as being the same as woman with child. The child is inside the woman, and totally dependent on her to sustain life, but they are not the same person. I do not, as I stated before, believe that it matters. Christ taught that God always comes first. When Christ was told that he was good, his reply was that he was not good, only his Father in Heaven was good. So you love and respect Christ for what He did, so do I. However, he only did as He was told. Besides, why do you think it is called Christianity?
Blessed Be

You implied that there was a difference between Jesus and God which is how you see it. Jesus is more tangible than a rather nebulous spirit (God). But you forget that God was within Christ in full measure - not just a little bit of him. Christ showed us what God is like.

have you ever read the bible? who is jesus praying to in the garden? who his he talking to on the cross? his father, God. those are just a few examples. they are clearly two distinct persons but obviously with the same gospel, etc.

They are not the same. Jesus said that He is not God.
