    God is the father. Jesus is the son of God. Both are the same... yes.

    In the 10 years I've been on here, this exact Q has been asked regularly, if not every week then every month. Already, Yahoo! has a pool of thousands of answers to this Q. Why don't you have a look at some of them instead of repeating this Q. There's a similar type of Q just below with a BA that might help you think about the complexity involved. You might learn from that to qualify what you mean by 'same' - the same WHAT? or the same WHO?

    To answer your Q, I will quote Jesus' words in John ch. 14 (do read the entire chapter as I can only quote snippets). "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father... I am in the Father and the Father is in me... And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counsellor to be with you forever - the Spirit of truth... He who loves me will be loved by my Father and I too will love him and show myself to him... If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him... But the Counsellor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."

    I suggest that nobody can understand who, and what, the One Being of God is, without the Holy Spirit teaching them this awesome truth about the way all three relate in the Godhead. That is why your omission of also asking about the Holy Spirit in this Q is telling.

    IN THE HOLY BIBLE JESUS SAYS HE IS GOD>>>

    JESUS IS GOD, SEE HERE WHERE HE TELLS US MANY TIMES IN THE BIBLE FIRST WHERE HE TELLS PHILLIP HE IS GOD,>>>>

     Philip said, 'Lord, show us the Father and then we shall be satisfied.' Jesus said to him,

    9 'Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? 'Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father, so how can you say, "Show us the Father"?

    10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? What I say to you I do not speak of my own accord: it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his works.

    11 You must believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe it on the evidence of these works.

    EXPLANATION OF JESUS SAYING ONLY THE FATHER IS GOOD>>>

    I know at glance it seems like Jesus is questioning why they call Him good. However, He is agreeing that He is good, but bringing to their attention that this goodness is from the Father and the good they see in Him is because He is light from light, true God from true God.

    He was saying that if people recognize that He is good then they should know that He is God. They should recognize that God is the source of goodness, not man. He was raising people's minds to recognize the Messiah.

    ALSO, THIS IS PROOF GOD IS A BLESSED TRINITY IN GODS OWN WORDS JESUS TELLS YOU HE IS GOD MANY TIMES, ALSO THE TRINITY IS IN THE SAME BIBLE, GOD SAID, "LET US" MAKE MAN IN "OUR" IMAGE, AND WHEN GOD AT THE TOWER OF BABEL, GOD SAID, let "us" go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other! HENCE HIS TWO MESSAGES THAT GOD IS THE BLESSED TRINITY

    BELOW ARE DIFFERENT TIMES JESUS SAYS HE IS "I AM" GOD.

    JESUS TOLD THE PHARISEES WHEN THEY SAID TO JESUS, DO YOU PUT YOURSELF ABOVE ABRAHAM AND JESUS SAID, BEFORE ABRAHAM, "I AM" MEANING HE IS GOD

    WHEN MOSES ASKED GOD HIS NAME, GOD SAID HIS NAME WAS "I AM"

    OTHER TIMES JESUS SAID, "I AM" THE DOOR TO HEAVEN.

    "I AM" THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE

    "I AM THE VINE, YOU ARE THE BRANCH'S

    JOHN 17:5 And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee.

    John 8:58

    Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.

    saias (Isaiah) 43:10

    You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe me, and understand that I myself am. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there shall be none.

    I WILL GIVE YOU TWO EXAMPLES THEN MORE IN MY LINK. FIRST THE BIBLE IS GOD'S WORD AND THE WORD BECAME FLESH(JESUS, GOD, MAN) AND DWELT AMONG US. SECOND, WHEN SATAN TEMPTED JESUS, JESUS SAID, YOU SHALL NOT PUT THE LORD YOUR GOD TO THE TEST. ALSO READ JOHN 14: 1 THRU 12

    Yes. ....................

    Both are nonexistent. In terms of the Bible, it depends on which writer you pay attention to. Some verses support Jesus being God while other depict Jesus as separate from God but with God's same mission. John outright claims Jesus and God are the same as he attempts to poorly reconcile the plural Gods found in Genesis. John takes us back to the beginning with the Word (Jesus) and begins with the Word was with God (two separate entities), but then claims the Word is God (one and the same). Christianity is one of those lies where it is so complex, no one can keep their story straight. That is what is so nice about the truth, no effort to keep the story straight and make excuses for why the story doesn't line up with reality.

    Thats the clear consensus of the Holy Bible

    John 10:30 KJV — I and my Father are one.

    John 14:9 KJV — Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

    1 Timothy 3:16 KJV — And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

    Revelation 1:8 KJV — I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
