Only newer translations with specific aims have this, who is himself God , rather than being, the One, or who, or which, is in the bosom of the Father . As for John 17:3 could it be made any clearer that there is God and the emissary of God, Jesus Christ who was sent by God to represent God. I think dear wotsup would have to un-know the meaning of these verses to begin the journey of understanding the Trinity. As said before, the Trinity was the consensus of a vote. Jesus became God via a vote, not by anything written into the Bible. A bit of fudging along the way., a word here a word there and the incorruptible Bible has turned Jesus into God. It was a big deal calling Jesus, God because this led to the boot-heel of imperial Christianity stamping out indigenous religions with utter contempt across the globe. After all their teacher was God Himself and the rest were just Prophets and wise men. You're obviously a lapsed Catholic.

Like everybody else you are entitled to your opinions which I read. Having a discussion with @wotsup on the Trinity is enough for me on the subject. I have no intention of opening up another sequence of discussion on the subject with another poster. I'm not an elapsed Catholic. I'm no Catholic, never have been and very unlikely to ever become one.
