John 10:30<br />
I and my father are one. (KJV)<br />
1. There is no reason to take this verse to mean that Christ was saying that he and the Father<br />
make up “one God.” The phrase was a common one, and even today if someone used it, people<br />

of a beginning, which is opposed to that eternity... In the context of the new creation, then, “the<br />
Word” is the plan or purpose according to which God is restoring His creation.”<br />
