ECACTLY Where? Read a Bible but not the KJV. That version is good only in the beauty of wordage and the poetry of the words. Read a scholar's Bible. Read a regular Bible. Study religion. Read for yourself, most people prefer to just accept what someone who claims to know says. And that's a very dangerous, to those around that person, way to live.

The Jesus presented by the church is not the true Jesus. In fact, Jesus warned against just such people as ravaging wolves in sheep's clothing. Do you think Christian preachers are going to teach that? Or anything that dares question the legitimacy of Christianity?

Do I believe Jesus and God are one and the same?

Yes. Just as I believe that you, I, and every living person is part of God.

That "Trinity" stuff is how the Church tried to explain that body, soul, and Spirit are one. But the Church claims that only applies to Jesus, but he said that all who love their neighbor is a son of God, just as he was and that he taught the "way" to God. As in, the way of life to follow to know God. Not that "he" would save you. It is up to every person to find God through loving neighbors, enemies or not, because if you do that, you're already "saved". Loving others is the only way to love God. No one else is going to do that for you. Early church priests changed that to mean that Jesus would be the one and only "savior" who can get you to God.

Leaders of organized religion lie. Like politicians, that's how they maintain power.
