-Removed-This is sonship writing. I am away from home now. When I return today I will answer this question again with as much straightforward detail as I presently know how.
I consider this question about the assurance of salvation more than about teaching of the three-oneness of God's nature.

This is an excellent point thank you. I've never noticed this before. Supports my ONE person godhead perspective, would you agree?

It says what is written, and you dismissing Jesus is God is the only thing it contradicts.
Jesus had a guarantee from his reading of scripture that God would raise him from the dead IF he remained sinless and obeyed even to death.
So in a sense it was in Jesus hands or control to be raised from the dead, but conditional.
That is why he says he can lay down his life and take it back again.
Can I say it any more simply? God is still the one who raised him from the dead, not Jesus himself.

What I read was quite clear, that it goes against something you believe is not my problem.
The scripture Is clear you introducing this, I know what it says, but this is what he meant
isn't healthy.
