This kid may be right or may be wrong who knows. But John 1 does not explain embryos and prayer times - by God to God?
Small wonder your peers don't and never do touch that question. The answer seems to underpin the whole basic belief set. It does need to be answered someday.
Jesus in Acts when Stephen was stoned wasn't sitting on the throne. He was "at the right hand". Jesus wasn't sitting on "the throne" in Revelations either. So this begs answer to the open and unending question. WHO is Jesus really? He is Not what is taught behind your pulpits. Does not add up. He is different from God however He is fully empowered to represent God's word seems to be the closest fit.

Which question are you referring to? The "why didn't Jesus just say He was God" question? Or the "how or why does God pray to God" one?
As for the pulpits, remember there are 73 sects and all but one are doomed.
