Jesus said I and my Father are one. What does this mean?

(John 10:30)

When Jesus speaks of the Father in this manner, He is really showing us that there's only one God. Look at the translation this way, I and my Father are the same. Jesus never thought it robbery to be equal with God or to forgive sins because He is God. The Jews said of Jesus, here is a man who maketh himself God.

The Jews said, Jesus called Himself God. Therefore, he deserved to be crucified. They caused him to be killed with the thought they were doing God a favor. Jesus in fact, told them the truth but they could not receive it. Therefore, Jesus was crucified among other things for blasphemy which caused a religious uproar (John 10:33).

The same holds true today. I'm sure there's going to be pastors, theologians and teachers reading this book who will say Jesus is not the only God. Even after reading all these scriptures, they will still try to search and prove that Jesus is not the only true and living God. I find research of the scriptures intriguing because I’m trying to prove that Jesus Christ is the only God. I was determined to prove that there aren’t “three separate persons in one” as I have been led to believe in the Churches I have attended.

This is what happened, I proved the scriptures to be correct, there aren’t three separate persons in one God. There is only one God. There is no such thing as “three gods nor three persons in one God.” God said, “there is one Lord” (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11). Jesus Christ is God’s name and He is the One Lord in both the Old and New Testaments (Isaiah 9:6, I Corinthians 10:1-4, Luke 2:11). No man comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ (John 14:6).
