Different strokes for different folks.
You can be creative BR.

Your wrong again my brother.
Christ is the logos that became flesh, Jesus was born flesh.
Who would refute it? There is only one God and Father of all.
Eph 4:4-6
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling;
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
6 one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
(NKJ)
Jesus came a preached peace, and through Jesus who gave us the Holy Spirit. We have access by the Holy Spirit to the Father.
Eph 2:17-18
17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near.
18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.
(NKJ)
You try to refute the truth.
Jesus is God come in the flesh.
I said
It was only Jesus who came in the flesh. If you cant confess that you are an antichrist. Confess means to agree fully that it was Jesus who came in the flesh. And not God.
I Jn 4:3
3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
(NKJ)
II Jn 1:7
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
(NKJ)
You are a confused man. I am trying to help you.
Jesus is God come in the flesh as a Son of Man.
Those who believe the trinity hoax do not even have a glimmer of the truth of scripture, let alone the deep things.
I said
I had a dictionary, now you had a dictionary. So
That is why I thank God for the revelations of Jesus Christ. They go much deeper than any dictionary.
Thanks for the laugh before bed. The scripture says Jesus is the Logos friend. Christ only means anointed one.
From Dictionary.com
noun
1.
Jesus of Nazareth (Jesus Christ), regarded by Christians as fulfilling Old Testament prophecies of the Messiah
2.
the Messiah or anointed one of God as the subject of Old Testament prophecies
Was yours English or Greek. English here is meaningless. A person must go back to the original language.
And your correct. Jesus is deeper than anything. He is the "fullness of divinity in flesh."
The pagans believed in a Triad of gods. They were polytheists. That means they believed in three main gods (Triad) who were completely separate beings. And they ruled over the rest of the gods.
The Trinity is 1 God with three persons-The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit that are equal in essence and nature as One God.
I said
It seems Jesus disagrees with you.
John 10:29
29 "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.
(NKJ)
John 14:28
28 "You have heard Me say to you, 'I am going away and coming back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, 'I am going to the Father,' for My Father is greater than I.

(NKJ)
Yes, the Father (who is the same in essence and nature God), is greater then the Son IN HIS HUMANITY (who is the same in essence and nature God). Jesus had two natures being fully God and Fully man.
"You heard that I said to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you.' If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I,'" (John 14:28).
Jesus said that the Father was greater than He not because Jesus is not God but because Jesus was also a man, and as a man, He was in a lower position. He was ". . . made for a little while lower than the angels . . .," (Heb. 2:9). Also in Phil. 2:5-8, it says that Jesus "emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men . . ."
Jesus has two natures. Jesus was not denying that He was God. He was merely acknowledging the fact that He was also a man. Jesus is both God and man. As a man, He was in a lesser position than the Father. He had added to Himself human nature (Col. 2:9). He became a man to die for people.
A comparison can be found in the marriage relationship. Biblically, a husband is greater in position and authority than his wife, but, he is no different in nature, and he is no better than she. They share the same nature--being human, and they work together by love.
So, Jesus was not denying that He was God. He was simply acknowledging that He was also a man, and as a man, He was subject to the laws of God so that He might redeem those who were under the law, namely, sinners (Gal. 4:4-5).

Scriptures Quoted:
Phil. 2:5-8, "Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, 6who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. 8And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."
Col. 2:9, "For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form."
Gal. 4:4-5, "But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, 5in order that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons."
Heb. 2:9, "But we do see Him who has been made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone."

Your a walking oxymoron. That is a lot of double talk. Twisting.
James 1:7-8
7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
(NKJ)
2 Pet 3:15-16
15 and account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation-- as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,
16 as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.

It's not being double minded. It's knowing and believing what the bible says it's not the bibles fault if you can't understand

Same ESSENCE - NATURE as God I said right? Well...
Philippians 2:6
"Who, being in very NATURE God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage..."
Hebrews 1:3
"The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the EXACT REPRESENTATION OF HIS BEING, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."

I think your totally missing what that one verse was saying. It was talking about the fullness of God working through Jesus. Has nothing to do with the deity of Jesus.
Col 2:8-9
8Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
9For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily;
(NKJ)
2 Cor 5:19
19that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
