John 10: 30 reads: "I and the Father are one. ". But if you read verse 29 which shows that God as Jesus's Father are two different people, in these words. " What the Father has given me is something greater than the other things ... Matthew 3: 17 also confirms that fact in these words. " A voice from heaven said: " This is my Son, the beloved, whom I have approved." These words were said the day of Jesus' baptism.
One: or "at unity." in John 10: 30 shows that Jesus and the Father are unified in protecting sheeplike ones and leading them to everlasting life. Such shepherding is a joint task of the father and the Son. They are equally concerned about the sheep, not allowing anyone to snatch them out of their hand. Read John 10: 27-29; Compare Ezekiel 34: 23,24
Jesus and his Father are "one" in action and cooperation, not in person. Read John 5: 19; 14: 9, 23
Jesus means an oneness of purpose but not an equality of godship. So it is important not to isolate a verse from its context .
John 17: 1-26; 10: 25-29; 17: 2, 9-11 where comparing words are recorded, especially shows when Jesus prays that his followers " may be one just as we are one." John 17: 11.
So the kind of oneness referred to in John 10: 30 as well as in chapter 17 would be the same.
To understand John 10: 30; 14: 28 correctly, we must examine what The Bible really says about Jehovah God and about Jesus rather than try to harmonize the verses with " the Trinity dogma," which is not based on the Bible. The Bible shows that Jehovah God is not only Jesus' father but also Jesus's God, the One whom Jesus worships. Read Matthew 4: 10; Mark 15: 34; John 17: 3; 20: 17; 2 Corinthians 1: 3. Jesus is not equal to God.
The oneness to which Jesus referred to must be understood in harmony with the context of his statement. he was speaking of his works and his care of the "sheep".
