How can God sit on His own right hand?
The SON sits upon the right hand of the FATHER, since each is a person. Asked and Answered. I refer you back to those posts.

Only citing portions of scripture is dangerous, let us look further at the scriptures...
I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and
in the kingdom and patience
of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:9

OK Let us look at other scripture:
אתם עדי נאם-יהוה ועבדי אשר בחרתי למען תדעו ותאמינו לי ותבינו כי-אני הוא לפני לא-נוצר אל ואחרי לא יהיה
Which Hebrew words do you not agree with and tell me what the word or words should mean in the following:
Is 43:10 You are My witness, said GOD... : before Me there was no God formed, nor shall there exist1 after Me.
1* Hebrew יהיה to be, exist, be present; happen, occur, take place: become, turn into
אנכי אנכי יהוה ואין מבלעדי מושיע
11 I am GOD; and without1 me there is no saviour.
1* Hebrew מבלעדי without
אל-תפחדו ואל-תרהו הלא מאז השמעתיך והגדתי ואתם עדי היש אלוה מבלעדי ואין צור בל-ידעתי
Is 44:8 Fear ye not ... . Is there a God besides me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
כה-אמר יהוה מלך-ישראל וגאלו יהוה צבאות אני ראשון ואני אחרון ומבלעדי אין אלהים
Isa 44:6 Thus saith the Lord, the King of Israel, and the redeemer, the LORD of hosts; I am the only first, and I am the last; and besides me is no God.
אני יהוה ואין עוד זולתי אין אלהים אאזרך ולא ידעתני אני יהוה ואין עוד זולתי אין אלהים אאזרך ולא ידעתני
Isa 45:5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God besides me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
כי כה אמר-יהוה בורא השמים הוא האלהים יצר הארץ ועשה הוא כוננה לא-תהו בראה לשבת יצרה אני יהוה ואין עוד
Isa 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
הגידו והגישו אף יועצו יחדו מי השמיע זאת מקדם מאז הגידה הלוא אני יהוה ואין-עוד אלהים מבלעדי אל-צדיק ומושיע אין זולתי
prep. except, but for, besides
Isa 45:21 ... not I the LORD? and there is no God else besides me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none besides me.
Since JESUS is GOD the SON [as shown by numerous texts], there is no contradiction. There is no GOD other than YHVH GOD, for YHVH GOD is 'one' YHVH, that is three persons, FATHER, SON and HOLY SPIRIT united in character, in love, etc.
Thank you for quoting the texts which reveal that JESUS is indeed YHVH GOD.
he-man said:
Do you work and labor day and night to earn your keep while you spend 2 or 3 days with other believers?
What does this have to do with the current subject? I keep asking... but in answer, yes I work and labor in ministry and earn my keep in the place that GOD has prepared for me, and I am surrounded by other believers of like faith, since I work in ministry. I hope that this answers your question.
he-man said:
You bet he did and he died and was in the grave for 3 days!
Yes, Christ Jesus was dead [for humanity died] and in the tomb, for those 3 days, that being [aka] 'friday' afternoon [6th day, preparation day], all day the 7th Day Sabbath of the LORD thy GOD [aka 'saturday'] [resting in redemption, as HE had in Creation, linking Creation/Redemption forever!] and for the first part of the first day of the week [aka 'sunday'] rising sometime very early before sunrise.
This was foretold specifically in prophecy and in typology.
he-man said:
Mr 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus shouted for help with a great voice, Eloi, Eloi, λαμαζαβαφθανι? which is, being interpreted, "My God why are you so far from helping me?"A Psalm of David. » My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my crying? !ειμι eimi And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, and saying to be the Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
Jesus Christ, GOD manifest in the flesh] [human flesh and blood] became sin for us [2 Corinthians 5:21]. Sin separates.
The FATHER was still there, shrouded in darkness, unseen from mortal eyes, and CHRIST JESUS died in perfect faith, trusting to the FATHER.
Christ Jesus was experiencing the wrath for a transgressed ETERNAL LAW. HE, suffered in our stead. BTW, the Cross proves the immutability of the Ten Commandments. They cannot be altered, changed, abrogated, done away, etc. The 7th Day Sabbath of the LORD thy GOD [who is your GOD?] stands as surely as does the commandment against murder, theft, etc.
You say that YHVH GOD is your GOD, you Creator and Redeemer, but you do not honour HIS day, that HE sanctified, blessed, and made Holy, in which HE HIMSELF rested in. Who is your Creator? Who is you Redeemer? Who is your GOD? You say you worship YHVH, but what is the evidence?
Do you set up your own righteousness, your own commandments? Can you be holy apart from the ways of GOD?
Turn unto the LIVING GOD!
I suggest re-reading the passage again:
And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for
many shall come in my name, saying,
I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. Luke 21:8
For many shall come in
my name, saying,
I am [Christ]; and shall deceive many. Mark 13:6
Look at the Greek.
In two, out of three passages, the word [christos] is not present, for only in Matthew 24:5 does it say Christ. So, HE said both. Christ is also not a name, it is a title. YHVH, who is the I AM, is a name.
Many would come in HIS name, I AM [there are many that are doing this]. and also come saying that they were the Christ [there are many that are doing this].

Pay attention to the Bible and not what Rutherford says
I suggest the same in return for the first portion, and as to the latter portion, I have already said previously, I am not a Jehovah's Witness, nor follow Rutherford, nor the Watchtower and Tract Society, nor any man on this earth, for I follow CHRIST JESUS.
I am Seventh Day Adventist, by the Grace, Power and Love of JESUS CHRIST, GOD the SON.

I am not the one who is quoting philosophies [of Newton], and the writings of other men [Snobelen] for evidence of a position, and scripture has been my position.
The Word of GOD is my Rock, all else is sand.
he-man said:
Ye call me teacher and master: and ye say well; for it is to be.
Christ Jesus said, Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for [so] I am. John 13:13

Teaher and Lord.
Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and
teach thee what thou shalt say. Exodus 4:12
Good and upright [is] the LORD: therefore will
he teach sinners in the way. Psalms 25:8
Jesus said, I AM the Way, the Truth and the Life.
The SON teaches, the HOLY SPIRIT teaches and the FATHER teaches.
