Kevmo, you said “it is a FACT that Jesus claimed to be God”

I am merely asking you to back up your claim with scripture.

Chastising me or yelling at me does not substantiate your claim.

I am merely asking you to back up your claim with scripture.
***Then read the article. There’s tons of scripture support.

Chastising me or yelling at me does not substantiate your claim.
***Then get to work. This is perhaps the most central tenet of christianity, so familiarize yourself with the evidence.

Here's a way to comprehend what Jesus taught to His Disciples. It is an explanation for what He told Philip in John chapter fourteen.

If you live in 'Flatland' a realm where there are only two variables of dimension space, namely length and width, the only way you could comprehend what a pencil is would be for you to sense the pencil as it passes through your two variable space. Everywhere the pencil is 'in' your two variable realm would be a piece of evidence, then you would have to imagine what all the pieces of evidence make when together. The pencil is a three variable object. Your senses are two variable capable

Jesus told Philip that all he could see of God The Father Almighty was what he could see as Jesus, because the dimensional variability of God The Father is so much greater than the sensing capabilities of the Disciples. Jesus IS God with us. Where Jesus was in Philips spacetime, Philip could collect another piece of data about God The Father, but Philip would not be capable of 'sensing' God The Father directly because of Philip's limitations, thus God came to be Jesus so we limited creatures could sense that much of God. Jesus told Philip that He and The Father were One. To a Jew that is affirmation of the Torah statement that the God of Israel is One. Jesus was asserting specifically to His audience that He Is God.
