Thanks for making this easy for me.

Rev 2 23And yet we still have nothing in the Bible says that says Jesus knows the hearts of all.
Nothing? Are you sure about that?And yet we still have nothing in the Bible says that says Jesus knows the hearts of all.

He is speaking to a specific group of people. He didn't say he searches the hearts of all. Another way of looking at this, since this is a message that God gave Jesus (Revelation 1:1) then Jesus is simply repeating what God said. In that case, it would be God, not Jesus, who is searching the hearts.Rev 2 23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Correct. That means Jesus isn't God.Only God can say that according to Jer 17 10
I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
Jesus' revelation to the churches was given to him by God. Jesus and God aren't the same person.Its the Son of God speaking in Rev 2 23 we know that from Vs 18
18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

Revelation 1
1This is the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon come to pass. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John,
You are the ones who is making up the unbiblical stuff.
You have tons and tons of them.
that's what happens when you don't know what the Bible says.

Remember the Son of man Jesus (dying mankind) has no power to rebuke the spirit of lies or power to raise the dead to new lifeIt means the Son of God is God. He I AM HE
Rev 2 23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
I think you answered your own question, but didn't quite catch it. Revelation 1:1 says the message to the churches is what God gave to Jesus. Therefore, the message to the church in Revelation 2:3 would be the message from God, not the message from God. As you pointed out in Jeremiah 17:10, it is God who searches the hearts of all. Do you see that God and Jesus are not the same person in scripture?It means the Son of God is God. He I AM HE
Rev 2 23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
The seven churches in Revelation are Jewish [home] churches. They are not Gentile churches because this prophecy is not to Gentiles but to the New Covenant Jewish church-fellowships in these various towns and cities populated by Jewish Christians. Every prophet in the Hebrew Scriptures (Genesis to Revelation) was sent to the Hebrew/Jewish people except one: Jonah.I think you answered your own question, but didn't quite catch it. Revelation 1:1 says the message to the churches is what God gave to Jesus. Therefore, the message to the church in Revelation 2:3 would be the message from God, not the message from God.
No, not the same Person, but the same essence which is Deity. There are three Persons in the Trinity. Each Person is the essence of Deity. But all three Persons is One God. Co-equal.As you pointed out in Jeremiah 17:10, it is God who searches the hearts of all. Do you see that God and Jesus are not the same person in scripture?

Everything in Revelation concerns Israel including the Temple, their history, their culture and religious practices. Even to the Return of Israel's Messiah in chapter 19 to fight alongside Israel and to defeat Israel's enemies (Zech. 14:1-4.) And those enemies of Israel are Gentiles (non-Hebrew/Jew.)
I find it interesting the distinction you're making between Jews and Gentiles in Christianity when there isn't a different New Covenant based off of one's ethnicity. Do you think this is important to mention and, if so, why?The seven churches in Revelation are Jewish [home] churches.

If I understand you correctly, the essence is the deity. Is God a person or an it in your view? Also, do you consider yourself to be a Trinitarian?No, not the same Person, but the same essence which is Deity. There are three Persons in the Trinity. Each Person is the essence of Deity. But all three Persons is One God. Co-equal.
This is not Sabellianism. This is not Modalism.
Exactly. The Bible is clear about what is in the heart of the common man. This isn't knowledge that would have been exclusive to Jesus.And Jesus did know the "hearts" of men knowing through His practical knowledge of Scripture to discern what is in man's thoughts by what comes out of their mouths.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Mt 12:36–37.
19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: Mt 15:19.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow (body), and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Heb 4:12–13.
Right, I agree with that, but that isn't the same thing as literally being the God. Jesus was himself "tempted in all ways" while God cannot be tempted.What Jesus lacked in practical knowledge, which was limited (He did not know the day and hour of His return), He made up in His knowledge of the Scripture of Law, Psalms, and Prophets. Teaching above that knowing Scripture one can discern body, soul, and human spirit in man, Jesus in this knew what was "in" man which is the same as knowing what is in men's "hearts" (more specifically, knowing their thoughts.)

Do you see that God and Jesus are not the same person in scripture?
Again, your ignorance of the Bible is showing vividly.It means the Son of God is God. He I AM HE
Revelation 1:1 says the message to the churches was from God. That would make Jesus the messenger. If Jesus says to the churches in Revelation 2:23 "I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts" then that would be the message Jesus gave from God, not the message from Jesus. That would mean Jesus doesn't search all hearts.It means the Son of God is God. He I AM HE
Rev 2 23
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
right on!!!!!!!!!!Let's settle this. Where is anything explicit and direct in the Bible about Jesus searching or knowing the hearts of all men? No one has found it yet after millennia. Please let me know when you do.
