In John 14:16, 18 notice what Jesus said, “And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another [allos] helper, to be with you forever / I will not leave you desolate; I will come to you.” At Matthew 28:20 Jesus said, “Lo, I am with you always, to the close of the ages.” It is through the coming of this promised helper, the holy spirit, that Jesus comes to them and remains with them (although he is physically absent), hence the use of allos. As said before, the holy spirit is reflective of Personality, in this case, that of Jesus Christ.

This article shows the differences scripturally between God and the Son of God. It shows and explains how they are completely separate people. This shows harmony with the verses of the Old and New Testaments without involving post Apostolic man-made creeds built on confusion and contradictions.
