Round 1

Picture someone reading a passage where Jesus prays to God and says he is not acting on his own; that makes it hard for me to picture him as God. I know people read it differently, but my gut just says that picture doesn't fit.

Well, you also have to take in the fact that when he prays to the Father and he submits to the Father, he's not saying me and the Father are different or me and the Father are two different people. He's saying we are the same divine nature. So when he's praying and he's submitting to the Father, he's not saying me and the Father are two different people. He's saying we are the same divine nature. The speaker is making two sentences for this, and to prove it not as appropriate it is a spoken debate about a topic.

The other side makes a fair point about the resurrection, and I admit I am not sure how to argue with that. Still, my gut sticks on Jesus praying and seeming separate from God, so calling him God just does not sit right with me.

Well, let's say you're in a cult or clan and someone's the leader and you look up to them, right? But they call you less than because you're just a pawn. Does that make your divine nature any different than theirs? You're still as human as them. You still have the same values, the same free will, the same rights.

Imagine someone hearing Jesus say he can do nothing on his own and then being told that same person is God; that gap still trips me up. My opponent's explanation about one divine nature sounds reasonable, and I honestly can't argue it well, but my gut still says praying and submitting looks like someone distinct.
