But Jesus said just as we "are" this is present tense. Why is Jesus one with God before ascending to heaven? Apparently Jesus was one with God while human (one in thought, same goals) and we can be too by thinking inline with his word.

Yes! Jesus was simultaneously fully God and fully man. Google "hypostatic union".
That said, there were certain prerogatives of deity he lay down before his resurrection. One of them was certain knowledge of when he would return, for example. Quite a mystery, I'll admit.
