Would you care to explain John 1:1,14 from a Oneness perspective?

Im sure one of us will. In the meantime a good while back I explained to you who is the Father of Jesus. You said it would take time to absorb. Have you been absorbing?
Let me remind you what I wrote.
Who is the Father of Jesus?
Peter knew.
Acts 3:13
Quote:
13The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified
his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.
I agree fully with Pete. The Father of Jesus is the GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISSAC, AND JACOB.
Do you agree? If you say yes we can move on to the next question.
Who is the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob?
Moses met him in
Exodus 3:4-6
4And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I. 5And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. 6Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
Here we see the one Apostle Peter said was the Father of Jesus. Amen?
Exodus 3:13-15
13And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. 15And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
Now we can see plainly the identity of the God of Abe, Issac, and Jacob. He is called I AM. Amen?
So I AM is the Father of Jesus Christ according to Apostle Peter in
Acts 3:13.
If we miss this we will never be able to identify the Father of Jesus.
NOW.....who is Jesus?
John 8:56-59
56Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. 57Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Ok the Father of Jesus is I AM. Agreed?
Jesus is I AM agreed?
Are there two I AM's?
Or is Jesus BOTH........the Father and the Son?
Is Jesus the I AM the Father of Jesus? Is that Bible?
Isaiah 9:6
6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Did Isaiah say the Christ would be BOTH......The Father and the Son?
Did Jesus confirm it?
John 14:7-9
7If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
8Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9Jesus 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?
Jesus reproved Phil for seeking to know the Father except by him! All Phil wanted was to know the Father APART FROM JESUS. The same thing Trins claim as part of their orthodox faith!
So who is the Father of Jesus? You tell me.
