Jesus said that He only said what the Father told Him, that He did nothing on His own, and that what He did pleases God.

If the son of man is the word of God, the truth then it is the truth that pleases God. The spoken word of God is what pleases Him.

By that scenario, do you please God?

If Jesus sent His followers as He was sent then they must say what the Father told Jesus as well. Correct?

"I do nothing on my own, I only say what the Father taught me for the one who sent me is with me He has not deserted me because I always do what pleases Him."

Yes, God directed Jesus to teach about God's kingdom and that was the main theme of Jesus' teachings - Luke 4:43
Jesus directed his followers to do likewise but now on much grander international scale - Matthew 24:14; Acts 1:8

Why would or should God HATE you for not pleasing him? He didn't make us for only him and his pleasure. We are living beings with our own mind and lives.

No one said anything about hate. As it is written;

"Worship God alone, Him alone shall you serve."

"As the Father sent me so I send you. Go and make disciples of all the nation's baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and teach them to carry out everything I have commanded you."

The verse I quoted was Jesus inferring that God deserts those who do not please Him. Just as He deserted
rebel Israel for not pleasing Him.

How can Jesus be the antichrist. He said it as does the son of man but it is the Father's word Don't forget.

Remember;

"The son can only do what he hears the Father doing. Whatever the Father does the son does likewise for the Father loves the son and whatever he does He shows him."

"To me every knee shall bend by me every tongue shall swear saying, only in the Lord are righteous deeds and power."
