I get your last part -- but this is precisely how my Trinitarian brothers describe that unity as well. In fact, it's almost verbatim.

Your scripture says that no one has seen God, but the Son has made Him known (the one "at the Father's side").

At a faith level and a cognitive level I believe and accept that Jesus is God. However, how this relationship works out, I've been around it for decades and can't quite get it. I'm jealous of those of you on here who believe you got it down.

in part Trinitarians and Oneness agree on somethings and use similar terminology. The difference IMO is I don't believe the Son has his own deity in which he communes himself as deity. His Deity is the fact that his very expression is that of the Father. Trinitarians say proceed but in part they don't agree in the same way. Is the "man" God only in part that the Father is part of his existance. Can I say the "Son" is the Father? In Part yes as the existance of God is seen and realized by perfect relationship to the Father and he is perfectly known through the Son. (perfect synergism) The physical existance is simply man but the interactive existance of the mind of Christ is interwined with a perfect relationship with God as part of his very being. The two cannot be seperated. He breathes the Father literally intellectually as the Father reveals to him in his daily walk. The Son is limited in part but yet not limited as the Father will give him whatsoever he shall ask according to the perfect will. Yet the Son can speak as the very existance of God to Abraham and Moses because part of his existance is tied to God and speaks in harmony with him.
