Doesn't this mean to be one with God the way Jesus was one with God?
It's called dissociative identity disorder.

Being with God, that's what it's called. Oneness with God. Finding God within your own heart. God speaks to all in a still, quiet voice within the heart.
If you believe you are more than one person then you are considered mentally ill.

Jesus said "I and the Father are one." He taught the way to find God within you now.
Do you think God only exists outside yourself?
Do you think God is a solid person like yourself?

I don't think god exists at all.
The only person in my head is me.

Several things here..........first off, you have to remember that Yeshua was JEWISH and that He taught as a rabbi, which means that He would have known the Torah, and the Tanach, as well as other Jewish writings.
In that theology, they teach that God carves off a small piece of Himself, and puts in in the embryo created by your parents at about the 40 day mark, which is what is your soul. Interestingly enough, the human fetus doesn't grow a nervous system until around that point.
So basically what He was referring to, was that ALL OF US have a small piece of God inside of us (i.e. the soul), and that we are ALL a small part of God. Also what He was referring to when He stated "the Kingdom of Heaven is within".
As far as Yeshua being God? Nope. In one of the miracles that He did when He cast the demons out of a man and into some pigs that went over a cliff, after the pigs died, He turned towards the man and told him to "go forth and tell people what God has done for you through Me". In that statement, he made a very clear distinction between Him and God.
After Rome sacked Jerusalem and took parts of their religion and created the Catholic Church, they HEAVILY edited the Bible, mainly to focus the OT to point to the NT, and make Yeshua the prime character, with Revelation (again, HEAVILY edited) pointing towards His return.
Incidentally, the Rapture is a myth.
And...........fwiw...........you can't go ANYWHERE for eternity. Why? Simple actually, you have a beginning, so no, you can't go to hell for eternity.
However, you can go somewhere forever. John 3:16 states "For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotton Son, so that whosovever beleiveth in Him, shall not perish, but have EVERLASTING life".
Nope, eternity was not mentioned.

Interestingly enough, in the very first verse of the Torah, God uses the name "ElOhim", which means "God of Many Powers" when He first created the Heavens and the Earth. It's also known as the first verse of Genesis.
Now, if you understand a little bit about physiology, you'll know that the thing that runs your whole body is the nervous system, which is powered by electricity. Same with the brain, your brain puts out about 20 watts every second you're alive. Most people understand the soul to be some kind of energy, so yeah........God exists within you (via your soul), as well as outside of you (via everything else).
Interestingly enough, there was a scientist back in the late 1800s who tried to prove the existence of the soul. He would take tuberculosis patients on the verge of dying, put them in a bed that was on a scale, and measured the difference between them. It came out to about 21 grams.
They only allowed him to run that experiment 5 times (4 times successfully, as a nurse messed up one of his readings), and then he was told to quit.
He then started doing the same thing to dogs (weighing them alive, just as they died) and found out that their body weight DID NOT change.
Actually, watch History Channel's "Banned from the Bible" parts 1 and 2.
You'll see just how much they edited it.

I can make a clock that runs on the electric potential created by a potato
Does that mean a potato has a soul?

Actually, no. The soul is a small piece of God, assembled in a very special way with free will. Animals when they died and were measured didn't show any change in weight, so therefore, they don't have a soul, and neither does your potato.
Animals and your potato run on instinct and response to surrounding environment, they don't have free will.

Those experiments are hardly conclusive and have they been reproduced recently?
There is no Trinity. Jesus made clear he is the SON of God. Nothing that has been posted disagrees with that, in fact it supports it. Jesus was clear he is NOT the Father, he is the Son.

Another idiot.
Jesus never said anyone had the power to grant eternal life. The things you are talking about are clearly meant to apply to other things, not being God.
Another idiot.
So, the person who accepts what the authorities spoon-feed him without question is smart, and the one who questions and thinks for himself is an idiot. Got it.
I strongly doubt that you understand what the words "being God" even mean, likewise the words "grant eternal life." The sad thing is that you probably THINK you do.Jesus never said anyone had the power to grant eternal life. The things you are talking about are clearly meant to apply to other things, not being God.
Buddha was a false prophet. Jesus is the Son of God. Big difference.Several things here..........first off, you have to remember that Yeshua was JEWISH and that He taught as a rabbi, which means that He would have known the Torah, and the Tanach, as well as other Jewish writings.

I don't relate to this post.
Hey Sky, Buddha taught basically the same thing as Yeshua. Only, Buddha called it "becoming enlightened" instead of telling people that "the Father and I are One", because as an enlightened being, you see your connection with all others.
