Jesus tells us that he wanted the disciples to be one in Him just as He and His Father are one. One in spirit. Not one in being. If we look at John 17: 3 we see that salvation is found in knowing two beings – the Father and His advocate – not three. Also, Jesus never claimed to be equal to the Father, but rather He stated Himself “My Father is greater that I.” His power was not of Himself, but was given to Him of His Father. He said, “The works that I do, I do not of myself, but the Father that dwells in Me, He doeth the works.” The Bible makes it clear that the Father exalted Him to His position as God. This is due to His being His Son which naturally makes Him heir to the throne. Does this make sense?
