Good point about the idiom—I am one with = I am in agreement with.

I don't think Jesus the man really claimed to be God or even claimed to be the apocalyptic figure of the Son of Man, who would supposedly come to judge the world.

If this were an idiom then why did the Jew move to kill Him? When He Asked the Jews why are you trying to stone me, they said you claimed to be God.

Because Jesus insulted them over and over...and over...him calling them a wicked and adulterous generation, fools...SNAKES! Would you get mad if someone addressed you like that? Them saying Jesus claimed to be God was a PRETEXT to give him a good bashing. They would make up any bs story about Jesus they HATED him!

People in this topic were right, it's like arguing with a wall xD

The Jews were the most annoying fellowship any prophet could imagine because unless you did a miracle, cut a mountain in half or split the sea, THEY WOULD NEVER BELIEVE. Look what Phillip said in John 14:8:

"Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."

And Jesus tells him you're an IDIOT John 14:9:

"Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?"

AND AGAIN the Christians misunderstood. Jesus was EXASPERATED. The Jews would not understand so he had to come up with sentences fit for 5 year olds! It's ok sweetie, if you saw me, you saw the father shhhhuut! Jesus wanted to calm them down, to put them to sleep like you put to sleep a 5 year old. He dealt with CHILDREN! IMMATURE people. They did not understand and they do not understand up until this day!

Not even Phillip who had a 60 IQ believed Jesus was God after hearing that! And yet Christians believe!
