“ I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE ” -> JOHN 10:30 Question: In John 10:30 Jesus says, I and the Father are one [hen]. Doesnt this show that they are one in essence? This statement does not suggest either a dual or triune deity. What Johns Jesus meant by the word hen (one) becomes clear from his prayer concerning the apostles: That they may be one [hen], just as we are one [hen] (John 17:22), which means that they should be united in agreement with one another as he (Jesus) is always united in agreement with God, as stated: I [Jesus] always do the things that are pleasing to Him [God] (John 8:29). There is thus no implication that Jesus and God, or the twelve apostles are to be considered as of one essence.
