Wael, again you're correct. Genesis 1:1 is very clear...that is what the Bible calls "milk". However let's take it a step further and get into the "meat".
Genesis 1:2 says "....and the Spirit of God moved.....". So, in verse one you have God...in verse two you have the Spirit of God.
Genesis 1:3 says "And God said"....which means he spoke his word.
So, in the first three verses you have 1. God 2. Spirit of God 3. Word of God.
Let us now turn our Bible to the book of the Apostle John. John who's book speaks of the divinity of Christ said about him:
(John 1:1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
(John 1:14) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
So that same word that was in the beginning with God became flesh.....<b>THAT </b>is what's considered a deep thing of God.
And yeah, I've been known to be funny at times

You are turning the topic into the Trinity and Divinity of Jesus which were discussed here several times with Curious Christian and FHC. So you can easily search this topic on our forums and you will Insh a Allah get the answer.
Now, I do agree that the Bible, in many places is <b>ambiguous</b>, and there are many verses that are open for more than one interpretation, however, <b>the sign of Jonah is not of that kind, it is not that complicated</b>.
I really don’t want to argue over the same topic again and again, but until now you have not come up with any logical explanation to what you are claiming.
Was Jesus really <b>like</b> Jonah? <b>NO</b>, he was <b>dead</b> and Jonah was <b>alive</b>, and you can never say in any language, that both things mean the same.
Was Jesus really found in his grave for <b>three days and three nights as he said</b>? <b>NO</b> he stayed for <b>2 nights and one day</b>, or according to your own theory, <b>3 days and 2 nights</b>. And in no way, <b>3 and 2 are same as 3 and 3.</b>
I guess I am done with this topic unless other Christians want to add something “<i>new</i>”
Salam
Wael.
