Who is Christ talking to when he’s on the cross and praying to his Father in Heaven”, Himself?
First, you cannot derive an accurate understanding of the nature of God by one verse only. The testimony of the WHOLE Bible refutes your theory. That aside, Christ was not only completely God but he was also fully a human. Both at the same time.

Occasionally in scripture we see the one side showing itself particularly strongly, but at other times it goes the other way. For every example that informs us in the way that this one you referred to does, there are others that go strongly the other way, but verses which are not simply reports on something Jesus did or said leave no doubt about the Trinity.

As tempting as it is to invent religions to suit one's own perception of fairness and truth it is not an option open to Christians. Christ revealed God to humanity. His revelation is the truth. Some dislike what he said and did. But it can't be changed to suit the times or to suit individuals. So denying what Jesus revealed does appear to exclude one from participation in His body and thus receiving salvation in His name.

So we agree. Jesus Christ presented his Father in Heaven several times in scripture as a separate entity.

It’s no wonder there are so many different flavors of Christianity when you have goofy people making up blatant blasphemy to try to explain away the errors made by their sick leadership.

Shame on every Catholic who continues through their Church’s doors every week.

I’m sorry but there isn’t a single scripture that implies God is Jesus, and there are a half dozen or so that imply they aren’t the same. This “debate” boggles my mind!

Here are three we can start you off with:

Philippians 2:5-6 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to.
John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.
Colossians 2:9-10 For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily.

I don’t know what Satanic translation you quote, but here is the real scripture:

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

Yours is literally the opposite and your translation is the root of your error in belief. This is reason #2083 why non KJV should be tossed where they belong.

Nothing like judgmental hypocrisy to hurl accusations, hey what??

I mean, moral superiority is the root of all good, yes?

Aren't you glad you are so much better than them dirty ol' Cat'licks?

God has to be very proud of you!

Would you put in a good word fer me???


Arsenios

Your words read like that of someone suffering hysteria who is desperate to change the subject: in Biblical terms, you’re “possessed”.

You added the word noted above...

How do you translate the 5th Greek word of 6?

Great accusation!

Accusation is the treasury of demonic powers.

At the end of time Christ is Exulted to Godhood. When he is here on Earth on any of his missions as a human, he has not yet reached this goal.

Yes, I stand by my accusation that you are using logical fallacy to try to derail a discussion into your favor.

The spirit of confusion possess you!

Do you imply there is some issue with being an accuser?

Someone sold you a lie? Who should I accuse of selling you this lie?

I believe you seek attention, and do not possess any desire to further these types of debates.

I hope you will consider learning the folly of logical fallacy. Your replies are possessed with that type of attempted deception and manipulation.

Here is the last bit of attention you’ll get from me until you overcome your affliction.
