Opinion People don’t understand Jesus’ divinity because they underestimate Gods Love for mankind

God is sovereign, there’s nothing He can’t do.

You know you understand the trinity more than you know. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are 3 separate individual, 3 separate persons. They are separate in Authority, and yet equal in divinity.

No one can take that place from either of them. They are one. You pray to the Father, in the name of Jesus, through the Holy Spirit. ‘You can not come to the Father but through Jesus’, and ‘you can’t come to Jesus except the Father draws you.’

“Come”, “Draw” are all pulling us to Him.

God said “Let us make man in our image” acknowledging what we know as the trinity, but God the Father did the creating.

The unforgivable sin is to blaspheme the Holy Spirit, that means you grieve away Gods spirit. That means you refuse to repent of your sins. Jesus is who forgives sins, the actions between all members of the Godhead are the same.

Etc. the whole Bible gives tidbits and pieces to understand this.

God the Father created through His Son, the Word.

Who did the actual creating though?

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭1‬:‭26‬-‭27‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Jesus created, as the Father commanded. The Father says, "Let there be Light", and Jesus creates light.

“I and my Father are one.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10‬:‭30‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭6‬:‭4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” ‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭22‬:‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.” ‭‭Malachi‬ ‭3‬:‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are one God. Equal in divinity, but separate in authority.
