So Jesus after seeing a vision of the suffering he would go through to pay the atonement required to save mankind from the gates of hell, offered a prayer to God asking him to remove that cup of suffering so he doesn't have to drink from it. And here we know that Jesus and God are two different persons because only **two different persons would have two different wills**, the **golden words** that show Jesus is not God are
>However let your will be done, not mine.
Jesus is letting the **will of the Father supercede his will** because God and Jesus have two different wills from this prayer.
- Jesus' will: "Father if its possible, remove this cup from my presence"
- God's will: "You have to drink of it to save the world and receive the kingdom"
How do people who claim Jesus is God defend this when God and Jesus can have two different wills?
Also Jesus himself said these words to distinguish himself from God.
>Do not call me good, no one is good except God.
>The Father is greater than I.
