   things, nor does it mean that Jesus was just a pipeline conduit, it means   
   that by the Word of God these things came to be. You are tying the semantic   
   game, deceitfully. If not then tell the world that in this case that by and   
   through mean the same things, and thus Jesus is God.   
      
   John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made   
   that was made.   
      
   by him were all things created] The person we now know as Jesus Christ, the   
   only begotten Son of God, existed as an equal member of the Godhead from all   
   eternity (Isa 7:14; Isa 9:6-7; Mic 5:2; Jhn 1:1-2; Heb 1:8; Rev 1:8-11).   
   Before He became God’s Son (sonship refers to humanity, not to deity, note,   
   Act 13:33). He was a spirit being and carried out the divine plan of   
   creation. He was the direct agent of God the Father who created all things by   
   Him In the same manner as the son of Trump builds large buildings which they   
   both agree upon.

   That is a false understanding of yours, your mindset. I follow no church, I   
   follow Jesus. Seems you cannot tell the truth about anything.

   There is your “church mindset” speaking. I have shown you the truth   
   previously, and many times. Each time you deny it, and the scriptures given   
   to you as I have done in this post.

   “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in   
   heaven and in earth.” (Mat 28:18)   
      
   The verse you mentioned does not state that at all. There is no conflict of   
   any type between Jesus and His Heavenly Father they are one in agreement in   
   all things. If you truly want to know then why not give your heart to Jesus   
   and believe in and upon Him and be Born Again. Let His light shine in you,   
   and then study the world and allow Him to teach you in all things. Why follow   
   the ways of sinful men with the lusts thereof?

   Of course. Jesus always defers to His Father.   
      
   “Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my   
   Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father,   
   and your Father; and to my God, and your God.” (Jhn 20:17)   
      
   Jhn 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the   
   glory which I had with thee before the world was.   
      
   Remember that Jesus set that aside to be born as Man, and to die as Man?

   Mrk 10:8And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain,   
   but one flesh.   
      
   Mrk 10:9What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.   
      
   I am one with Christ as Christ is with His Father. I am also a son of God the   
   Father, and He IS my Heavenly Father.

   So you chose not to believe Scripture, again? Jesus spoke clearly, “I will   
   do it”   
   Again you speak with deceit, you parrot the words of the watchtower, lacking   
   knowledge, wisdom.

   That was Jesus, the man, but now His Glory as been restored to him that he   
   set aside to be born as man.

   You just called him a liar when he clearly stated, “I will do it”, You   
   also deny that he has been given all power both in the heavens as well as   
   here on earth. You swap translations when you quote scripture to ones that   
   use words that you can twist the definitions of. You do not stick to the NWT   
   that you claim is the only correct one, and the reason for that is because   
   even that one does not support your doctrines and dogmas.
