John 10:30 "I and the Father are one."  yeah...that kind of says he claimed to be God to me...

John 10:30 "I and the Father are one."  yeah...that kind of says he claimed to be God to me...However, the refrence is right, but it is just a text and we need to look at the whole context, which starts at John 10:22. The whole context shows that there is a difference between GOD and Jesus (the father and the son), and the whole context would mean that GOD and jesus are the same as far as the walk in Faith is concerned, and it does not mean that they are one and the same. So This does not present any proof that Jesus was GOD.

:Jesus also said at Matthew 19:5, regarding Adam and Eve, that they were "one flesh" (referring to their marital union).  Nobody would ever construe his words to mean that Jesus ''literally'' meant that the first couple walked around like conjoined twins.  Again, context is critical.  John 10:36 asks the Jews if they feel he has blasphemed because I said, I am Son of God?  At John 17:21, 22 Christ prayed, "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. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one."  (''KJV'')  The Greek word being translated as "one" (''hen''), at both John 10:30 and John 17:21, 22, is neuter, literally "one (thing)," and is used to indicate oneness in cooperation.

:French theologian John Calvin (July 10, 1509 – May 27, 1564), said in the book ''Commentary on the Gospel According to John'':  “The ancients made a wrong use of this passage to prove that Christ is . . . of the same essence with the Father. For Christ does not argue about the unity of substance, but about the agreement which he has with the Father.” [[User:BibleBrown|BibleBrown]] 17:26, 16 December 2007 (EST)
