And at Rom 15:5,6,
We are to
"5Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,
6so that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. "
Use that mind to glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God can not lie, Therefore true Christians believe Him when He says
"This is my Son, the beloved"
1 Tim 3: 16 By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness:
He who was revealed in the flesh,
Was vindicated in the Spirit,
Seen by angels,
Proclaimed among the nations,
Believed on in the world,
Taken up in glory.
Please notice the mystery is concerning godliness, not God.
1 : DIVINE
2 : PIOUS, DEVOUT
This shows the true course of being pious and devoted.
To say God is divine, doesn't mean "God is God", it means God has the qualities of God.
To say Jesus is divine means Jesus has the qualities of God.
To say "this cake is divine" doesn't mean the cake is God, but means 'this cake is from God'
To say Jesus is divine means Jesus is from God.

I agree, soldier guy, god can't lie; look what he says at John20:17. He says in a restored state that he has a God.
Oops, hang on! God worships a God? But, if we agree he can't lie, and this is the restored Jesus, -' God/god', as it were, (sic) not the 'God/man'(sic), what is the explanation?
Looks like Jason is right, after all...these are two distinct , entities united in purpose, will, and love, a Father and his only begotten (begotten means?)son!
Thanks for clearing that up, Soldier Guy!

Agreed, except that one can not have the mind of Christ without first having recieved it from His Holy Spirit.

Yes. The mind of God and the mind of man. The mind of man denies the Biblical teaching of the trinity. To say otherwise is to call God a liar.
For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? EVEN SO NO ONE KNOWS THE THINGS OF GOD EXCEPT THE SPIRIT OF GOD. 1 Cor. 2:11
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, HE SHALL TEACH YOU ALL THINGS, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26
All things include ALL Scripture according to 2 Tim. 3:16-17. Even the verses the JW's don't like.
Then God said, “Let US make man in OUR image, according to OUR likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” Gen. 1:26
So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, THREE MEN WERE STANDING BY HIM; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the ground, AND SAID, “MY LORD, if I have now found favor in Your sight, do not pass on by Your servant. Gen. 18:2-3
I and My Father are one. Jn. 10:30
For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word(Jesus), and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. 1 Jn. 5:7
For in Him(Jesus) dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. Col. 2:9
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifested in the flesh(Jesus),
Justified in the Spirit,
Seen by angels,
Preached among the Gentiles,
Believed on in the world,
Received up in glory. 1 Tim. 3:16
And the Word became 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. Jn. 1:14
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Phil. 2:5-8
God can't lie. Titus 1:2
