"The father and I are one."

I addressed that proof text in detail up thread.

Are husband and wife literally one? But they are to be 'one flesh' right?

Jesus simply stated that he and God his father were unified and he asked that just as he and God were unified, that his disciples would be one, too.

Jesus stated

Jhn 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

Clearly Jesus is saying the believers would do greater works than he did.

If Jesus was God, then he promised that believers would do greater works than God.

Howver, if Jesus is not God but the son of God, then that prayer could come true.

Uh oh, looks like if the Father answered Jesus' prayer posted below the trinity went from 3 to about a billion.

" Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name—the name you gave me—so that they may be one as we are one."
