stop confusing ursef with English language as if the Bible was written in English language. The same word translated as "in" here was translated as o in several other places in the Bible including the verse 13 of this same chapter. If u want me to list the other places, i can help u. Stop interpretating bible with ur knowledge of English language.
In all the portions u quoted u forgot to also mention Philippians 2 where it was clearly stated that Jesus did everything he did willingly. He left his glory and took the form he took willingly

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
All these verses says otherwise at the Red bolded letters.

John 3:6 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 10:17-18 17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

John 5:30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

John 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.

Luke 22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

Jesus Christ is not coequal with God the father and has never seeked his own will but the will of God the Father who is the greatest and above all that is seen and unseen.

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

And if He is the son of God what is He. My Dog last month gave birth to dogs and yesterday my hen hatched the eggs and guess what came out of the eggs chickens that I can equally call hens.

Now if he is the son of God I guess he is is supposed to be God.

There are many things we think we know but really don't know we don't know. You can't explain the Oneness of God and Christ. They are two different people that are One and can't be separated.

Like you can't explain how God remains present in all places at all times so also you can't explain the oneness of God and Christ with your human logic. So there are many things you should not worry yourself about else you'd end up an atheist.
Oga through out the entire bible did Christ or his disciples ever called or refer to himself as God the son?

Did you know what that phrase implies?

The oneness of God is not debatable, Deu 6:4 was very clear with that. Jesus Christ repeated it in Mark 12:29

Christianity Etc › SHOCKING!!! I Am Ready To Change To Christianity, - Emir Sanusi Lamido by Maamin(op): 7:26pm On Dec 26, 2017
"I Am Ready To Change To Christianity, Than To Continue With Radical Islam – Emir Sanusi Makes Deadly Confession"

His Royal Highness, the Emir of Kano and former Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Governor, Lamido Sanusi, has denounced radical Islamic teachings that breed poverty in Northern Nigeria.

The Emir, who stated this via his Instagram page, noted that the Southern Christians had set the pace of development in the country, and apparently left the North behind.

He urged Governors such as Abubakar Yari of Zamfara State, to pay attention to his opinions, and teach his people to be productive, instead of being beggars.

He wrote: “It’s my duty to speak the truth about the ill-effects of conservative Muslims who are harming Islam, rather than helping it.

“I condemned their refusal to expand their knowledge outside their own religion, and failure to realise that knowledge is power.

“I also correctly concluded denying the right to pursue scientific and technological knowledge and restricting people to Islamic knowledge, is the best means of ensuring that Muslims in Northern Nigeria will be remain economically backward.

“I’m upset at the legion of beggars on the streets, and is trying to bridge the gap between the backward North and the Southern parts of the nation.

“I still believe that conservative Muslims are still stuck in the 13th Century, and their claim that children need no other knowledge than Islamic studies, flies in the face of reality.

“All the poverty, under-development, and immense suffering in the North, are a result of uneducated masses, refusing to learn work or a trade.

“The majority of Technicians in Kano are from the South, while untrained indigenes beg. How does that make sense?

“Why is it that conservative Muslims who claim to be against scientific progress, enter aeroplanes and fly to perform the Hajj in Mecca, rather than using camels to cross the desert! Why do they watch sermons beamed by TV live from Mecca, and read the Holy Quaran on their laptops, yet profess to abhor modern technology?

“I’d like to point out that there is no harm in copying from the West, if it brings succour to the masses of poverty stricken Muslims in Northern Nigeria.

“After all, Saudi Arabia, the “home” of Islam, is known for its highly-rated airline, modern hospitals, indigenous oil industry, and space program, all of which make it a world leader.

“In our backward nation, we insist on denying the truth. Unless Northern political leaders like Governor Yari, pay attention to me, there will never be a day when anywhere in the North will be like the modern Muslim cities of Kuala Lumpar, Istanbul, Jakarta, Lahore, Greater Cairo, Dacca, Karachi, Dubai, Riyadh, or Faisalabad.”

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
We have known the truth . Part of their tactics was to say " we serve the same God" ,to make you lower your guide . Muhammed used that against the Jews back then.
He started by saying we serve the same God and there is no compulsion in religion , but latter began calling us idol worshippers and said idol worshippers should be enforced to accept Islam or be killed.

They practice Taqiyyah a lot. They see it as wisdom. They know in their heart that their religion is a religion opposite of peace but they shamelesly say its a religion of peace as if other people are blind and deaf to all their evils, present and past.
May God continue to strengthen us to stand for the truth.

They gradually encroach into your territory and space, pretend to be friendly, mingle and take what is yours, deface and make it theirs then turn it right back at you by condemning yours to be fake and no longer original while trying to force theirs on you and if you try to oppose and question them they get all violent and angry to attack and maim you. They will call you names like Kafir/infidel/unbeliever etc. These are fanatical and extremist Muslims for you grin

danvon:
can you provide any proof that it's not? you agree Star of David isn't found in the Bible
Here is the origin and meaning of the star of David. Someone like you will soon ask why is there a blue stripes on the flag? Or why is the israeli flag white? grin

The Star of David, also know as the Magan David (Shield of David), has been a symbol associated with Judaism for centuries. A stone bearing the Star of David in a synagogue in the Galilee dates back to the 3rd century. It is believed to have been used as a decorative design.
A Star of David was used in the year 1108 in the Leningrad Codex, which is the oldest complete edition of the Hebrew Bible in existence. The term, Magan David, was used as early as the 11th century as a name for the God of Israel, where God is compared to a shield in the divine protection of King David.
A 12th century text, Eshkol ha-Kofer, a work on the Ten Commandments, refers to the Shield of David.
Coins found in the 13th century bear the Star of David.
The Star of David was used in a medieval Tanakh manuscript from 1307 in Spain.
A Siddur dated 1521 from Prague includes a large Star of David on the cover with the phrase, "...He will merit to bestow a bountiful gift on anyone who grasps the Shield of David."

The Star of David and Zionism
The Star of David became officially associated with Judaism when it was chosen as the symbol to appear on the flag at the First Zionist Congress in 1897. At that time, it became the symbol of the Jewish people, Zionism, and the Jewish communities throughout the world.
David Wolffsohn designed the flag for the First Zionist movement, which became the flag for the State of Israel when it became a country in 1948. He wrote,
"At the behest of our leader Herzl, I came to Basle to make preparations for the Zionist Congress. Among many other problems that occupied me then was one that contained something of the essence of the Jewish problem. What flag would we hang in the Congress Hall? Then an idea struck me. We have a flag—and it is blue and white. The talith (prayer shawl) with which we wrap ourselves when we pray: that is our symbol. Let us take this Talith from its bag and unroll it before the eyes of Israel and the eyes of all nations. So I ordered a blue and white flag with the Shield of David painted upon it. That is how the national flag, that flew over Congress Hall, came into being."

The Jewish Star of David Meaning
This six sided figure symbolizes that God rules over the universe and protects us from all six directions: north, south, east, west, up, and down with the middle - the hexagram - providing the spiritual dimension.
The Star of David symbol helps remind us that despite our efforts to accomplish in this world, just like God decided that King David would be successful in defeating armies much greater then his own, so too will God help us accomplish our goals. This is why we say, “Blessed are you God, Shield of David” in the third blessing recited over the reading of the Prophets every Sabbath (read more about The Jewish Sabbath).
With the forming of the State of Israel in 1948, the flag of Israel was officially adopted. At that time, the Star of David became more than the symbol of the Jewish people, it became a symbol of the State of Israel.

The Holocaust and The Star of David
During the Holocaust, the Jews of Nazi-occupied Europe were ordered to wear a yellow Star of David, with the word, "Jude," - Jew, to identify the Jews. If a Jewish person was seen in public without the Jewish Star, severe punishment or death would occur. The wearing of a Jewish Star was also an act of defiance by those who were not Jewish, but who defied Hitler and his orders. When the Jews of Denmark were ordered by the Germans to stitch a yellow Star of David to their clothing or face severe punishment or death, the King of Denmark, who was not Jewish, declared that he would be the first Dane to wear that yellow star and would continue to do so until this threat to his people was removed.

The Star of David Meaning and Kabbalah
In Kabbalah, the two interlocking triangles represent the reciprocal relationship between man and God. Our good deeds are represented by the triangle pointing up to God and God reciprocates by allowing holiness and beneficence to flow towards us. When a Star of David is worn on jewelry, it helps us feel like we are walking with the protection of God and as a reminder of his presence. It also shows our love for the State of Israel.
