” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!”

Of course, since God had foreknowledge of his Son’s creation.

“Explicit statements of the NT indicate that Jesus retained his divine nature and attributes”

Also available to the Saints in the body of Christ, which doesn’t make them God: Quoting John 14:12:

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.”

Regarding Christ’s return:

Mark 13:32

“No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.”

And then:

1 Corinthians 15:28:

“And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.”

Hardly a Co-Equal, Triune Godhead as Trintarian dogma states.

Trinity - False doctrine nonsense started by Constantine.

Wrong again!

Jesus Christ is not a son of God in the same sense as others. He is the ONLY-BEGOTTEN Son of God, as we read in John 1:14, 1:18, 3:16, 3:18, and 1 John 4:9. The Greek is monogenes, which is mono (one) and genes (kind). Jesus is the UNIQUE Son of God, deity from deity.

You have taken the passage completely out of context. "I AM" is both His Name and attribute as God in the past, present, and future.

You misquoted Jesus by not including the next two verses.

"I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
