You do realize, that Jesus was quoting Scripture, don't you? He was referring to Psalm 22. Since Scripture in those days did not have Chapter and verse specifications, they referred to passages by the first line or two

Yes, I knew that, I cut and pasted from the LDS website, remember? BTW, the Chinese do the same thing with well known sayings, and yes, I have learned Chinese.

The Holy Ghost is a God? How many gods does the LDS recognize? It's separate from the Father and Son? Are the Father and Son separate also?

Read the post? There is one Godhead (A word that is actually in the KJV Bible) which consists of God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy ghost. These three are one in heart might mind and strength, the same way one is used through out the bible, man and wife -- one, the 12 apostles -- One, the members of the church -- one. It's not my fault that Constantine wanted to appease the Greek philosophers and make it one amorphous substance without body parts or passions.

Consider the following scripture:John 17:21-22

21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

Jesus makes a specific analogy with the oneness the Disciples should have with the oneness he shares with the Father. You may disagree with our interpretation of the bible, but there is definite support for what we believe in there.

Yes, the term "Godhead" is in the KJV.

However, it is not defined in that version as you have defined it. Read multiple versions (KJV, NIV, NKJV, NASB, etc) of those two scriptures (that term only exists in two verses), and see what the term "Godhead" actually means.

It does not mean what you have stated it to mean.

TWO with fleshly bodies and one Spirit.

3 BEINGS...

Are the TWO fleshly bodied 1/3’s of the Godhead the same in substance?

As someone with an incomplete mind (as you put it), please explain why knowing Chinese has anything to do with lds.
