>the ONLY true God
And Christ with the Holy Spirit are this same God. What is the issue here? There is only one divinity which Christ shares with the Father by virtue of being His only begotten Son and having the same nature. Also, did you ignore all other places in John where Jesus clearly shows His divinity? I'm almost willing to bet money that you've never read John from cover to cover.

Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me. But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. I and My Father are one.”
Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?”
The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.”
Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods” ’? If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken), do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’? If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him.” Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand.
(John 10:25-39)

How can a created being possibly be "one with the Father" or be such that the Father is "in him"?

The Holy Spirit does the same works as the Father, they share the same nature and thus the same knowledge. This knowledge is unique and pertains only to God, so we say "only the Father", as there is no other divinity or power that could know these things and all divinity proceeds from the Father.
