All it takes is one difference between Jesus and God and they are not the same.

No, only a misrepresentation of the definition of the Trinity as found in the Bible.

John 1:1* ¶ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.

The Bible tells us they are the same.

I wasn't aware that the word Trinity was anywhere in the Bible!

And what about the phrase 'god the son'? Where is that in the Bible?

Seems you have to use unBiblical words because you're describing an unBiblical concept.

God is invisible, and Jesus was the visible representation of God, right?

Wasn't it God Almighty who identified Jesus as his (God's) son?

We can keep it real simple...God is God, Christ is Christ and one is not really three.

The problem with your interpretation is that it flagrantly ignore clear verses that contradict it.

God is not a man that he should lie...nor the son of man that he should repent

God is one; there is only one God

God cannot be tempted with evil

God is spirit; God is invisible

Jesus was/is a man and the Son of Man

Jesus was tempted in all ways

Jesus was visible and in the flesh.

God said that Jesus was his son and Jesus said that God was his father, yet you want to call both of the liars!

Me? I like to believe that Jesus is God's only begotten son who was conceived by a virgin, born and lived a life that fulfilled the law and prophesies of the Messiah, died and was resurrected after three days and nights, and then ascended to sit on the right hand of God.
