Obviously God the Father !
Jesus and his Father are not the same Being/Person Joh.5v23 makes that clear. They are ONE in mind and spirit (in agreement AS ONE but can be separate in being/existing).:yes:

Yes. It's because Jesus is not God. God ressurected him.

Acts 4:10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=Acby the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=AcGod raised from the dead—by this name this man stands here before you in good health.

Gallatians 1:1 Paul, http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=2an apostle (http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=Ganot sent from men nor through the agency of man, but http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=Acthrough Jesus Christ and God the Father, who http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/"#ref=Acraised Him from the dead),
​

This is yet more proof that the tinity teaching is not scriptual.

I seriously cant understand the logic of Christian's as they say

Jesus is :

100% God
100% Man
100% son of God

Which is it??

I agree. Like I said, the trinity is not a Bible teaching but a formula concluded hundreds of years after Jesus' death. He never, ever, ever, ever, once claimed directly to be God or the holy spirit. There are scriptures that may seem to allude to such a teaching but they have been twisted out of context and not taken with the majority of scriptures that say otherwise. It is of pagan origin.
True Christians can see that and deny the trinity.

There is something called the Hypostatic Union which explains Jesus as fully God and fully human, God expressed through a human body (which was as vulnerable as any other).

Here is a line from the Hypostatic Union:
"The distinction in fact was brought about gradually in the course of the controversies to which the Christological heresies gave rise, and was definitively established by the Council of Chalcedon (451),"

Isn't that making it clear that it was controversial becuase many had a problem accepting this theory as it is not what the scriptures say.
I also wonder about the ordinary people who saw Jesus. When they saw him pray, when they heard him say that he was going to his father who was greater than he, when he said he did nothing of his own innitiative, when he said "Father, why have you forsaken me?", when he said he has made the name of his father known, when he said "I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God", could they possibly come to the conclusion that Jesus was actually God?

Sure. Jesus was dead for 3 days but God was still alive because the Incarnation was not an instance of God turning into a human being. After the Son was born, the Father still was, as was the Holy Spirit.

This is an erroneous view as the Qu'ran points out. God can never be killed. He always is. The Biblical text actually reveals that the Spirit of God did not stay with the body during the dying process but left at the words "into thy hands I commend my spirit" and this is the verse: Lu 23:46 And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost.
So there is never a question of the Spirit of God dying or remaining with the corpse for three days.

This statement is a bit muddled because Jesus was a human being. I think what you mean is that God did not become flesh and abandon His spirtual essence but inhabited the physical body as we all do.

Now we are dealing with misnomers because Jesus, the Father and the Paraclete are all the Holy Spirit. It remains true that God being omnipresent is outside the body as well as inside it.
