Yet Jesus said he was one with the Father. The Father in Heaven is God, so what could that mean?
It means Jesus is God.

Actually, what many refer to as the "Old Testament" is said to have been canonized at various times. An interesting discussion can be found at Wikipedia about canonization of the Hebrew scriptures. In part, it states, "Evidence suggests that the process of canonization occurred between 200 BC and 200 AD, and a popular position is that the Torah was canonized c. 400 BC, the Prophets c. 200 BC, and the Writings c. 100 AD[4] perhaps at a hypothetical Council of Jamnia—however, this position is increasingly criticised by modern scholars.[5][6][7][8][9][10] According to Marc Zvi Brettler, the Jewish scriptures outside the Torah and the Prophets were fluid, with different groups seeing authority in different books."I believe the same God authored both Old and New Testaments.
The Scribes simply wrote it all down.
Let me ask you this question, please. Would you say that Jesus is always equal to the Father?It means Jesus is God.

oh. Is that what the Trinity doctrine normally teaches? That Jesus is not always equal to the Father?
When Jesus was on earth he did say he was one with the Father. Does that mean he was equal to the Father when he was on the earth?It means Jesus is God.

It does not.Even Genesis describes the Trinity.
