Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Father?

If you believe the scripture is true that God cannot be tempted than you cannot believe the flesh is God or else you would have a contradiction.

The wise Christian admits it was God that was tempted! Why? For if God was not tempted then he who was tempted was not God. He who was tempted was Jesus.

You can't have your cake and it eat too If Jesus is God then God was tempted. If God was not tempted then Jesus was not God. Take your pick, but beware the consequences.

James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

A wise christian will never reject the scripture. As far as having my cake and eating it too I don't know what you mean? There isn't any selfish motives in why I believe oneness the way I do. If the Bible taught the trinity (which it doesn't) then I would be arguing a different case.

Jesus is God in the flesh and He is seated on the throne for all eternity and that is backed up by scripture. Jesus is God revealed to all mankind. One day every shall bow and every tongue shall confess.

The person who is God both died and cannot die.
The person who is God was both tempted and cannot be tempted.
The person who is God did not know the hour of his return and yet he also did know the hour of his return.

Thus is the incarnation. Saying that God was tempted doesn't make the scripture untrue that says God cannot be tempted.
