(John 14:9) "Iesu says to him, Am I with you this long, and you not know me, Philip? The (one) who has seen Me has seen the Father; and how do you say, Show us the Father?"
(John 20:28) "And Thomas answered and said to Him, My LORD and my GOD!"
You might ask:
"If Iesu is God, then who did He pray to?"
"If Iesu is God, then why did He not know the time of His return?"
"If Iesu is God, why did He say the Father was greater than He?"
Answer:
Iesu as the Son of man has physical limitations, He prayed to the heavenly Father to get strength, wisdom,..., to set an example for us. Iesu as a human being, He is less than the Father, even "(was) made a little less than the angels, so that by (the) grace of GOD He might taste of death for every (son)" (Hebrew 2:9b). Only the Father knows the time of His return. He needed the help from angel. (Luke 22:43) Since GOD is Spirit, He is the Holy Spirit, GOD in Iesu, Iesu in GOD, the Holy Spirit in Iesu. (John 3:13) "And no one has gone up into Heaven except the (One) who has come down of Heaven, the Son of man who is in Heaven." Iesu is GOD Himself! The secret is "GOD (IS) A SPIRIT" (John 4:24a). HE can be everywhere! When the One True God was manifested in the flesh as Iesu, Iesu spoke the Word of GOD, Iesu was the WORD, "and the WORD was GOD" (John 1:1b)
