Jesus said,
John 10:30
30 I and my Father are one. (KJV)
Jesus went on to say that this "oneness" was more than merely a union in purpose, mind, or desire. In fact, it is a union of being:
John 12:45
45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. (KJV)
Let's look at how Jesus explained this "oneness" to Phillip:
John 14:7-10
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 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?
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. (KJV)
Therefore, while both the Father and the Son are distinct, it is through this union of being that the Father shares in all that the Son is... and the Son shares in all that the Father is.
So, with the above in mind, let's look at your questions:
