The Son is Eternal God but as the God/man He subjects Himself to the Father.

John 8:58 NKJV
[58] Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."
"I Am" is the typical mistranslation of the Hebrew Name God used only once, and of which Jesus never used.
"Godman" is a fiction of CHURCHianity- unless you have 2 or 3: God SENT His son, He (or One of 'Them') didn't come Himself...AND Jesus was not "Eternal"- for he DIED- AGAIN contrary to CHURCHianity- but certainly not the Bible!

Call me cynical, but threads of this sort eventually end up with the OP denying the Trinity and/or asserting that Jesus cannot possibly be God.
You are correct, for Truth is Truth, and Church Dogma is usually just coprolite.

The Son is not eternal, as written in 1 Tim 6:16, "Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. "
To say that Jesus was referring unto himself doesn't even make sense grammatically, much less scripturally since it is written in John 5:31 "If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true."
That is referring to Jesus' God.
MANY saw Jesus, and He was the ONE (Not Three) who GAVE Jesus his power.

Who GIVES us this "Mighty Warrior/God/Tyrant" as the Hebrew words mean?
The One that does is ALSO referred to as such.
So ONE mighty warrior gives Israel ANOTHER one in the future...

Maybe both versions are true, one can consider it. But you have to think outside the box.

We are all born in the image and likeness of God, what does that mean exactly?

Maybe we are God, and we are not God.

Maybe Jesus was born of God, and because he never sinned, he stayed of God, and therefore was God, while his body/flesh was not God.

If you paint me blue, and I stay painted blue forever, then you can say that I am blue, even though I am not blue, but I am blue. Logic doesn't have the answers, illogical intelligence has the answers.

I drive a car, therefore I am a car driver. But when I am not driving a car, I am still a car driver, even though I am not driving a car.

Maybe God is in our make up. And to say that, I am God, is not necessarily saying I am THE God, but I am a part of God, I am part God. Or maybe God is not in our make up in the slightest, not one single part of us, and then one could say I am not God, because I am not a part of God, I am not partly God.

But it is our free will which defines this. If we say that we are not God, then what our ego does without us knowing, is it defines Self as God. And people may come with their opinions and thoughts, not discerning where it came from; God or themselves.

I personally believe God is in our make up, otherwise we would be incapable of love. God is Love. So if you have pushed love out of your make up of self, then you have pushed God out of your life, no matter how righteous you believe your self to be (self-belief).

Mistranslation? You clearly don't know Hebrew and Greek (I do).

"Godman" is a fiction of CHURCHianity-
No, put like that it is a fiction of the Jehovahs Witnesses who like to think terms mean what they want them to mean.

God SENT His son, He (or One of 'Them') didn't come Himself...
It means EXACTLY that. God sent, not a man, nor an angel but His SON. In other words He Came with the nature of God.,

AND Jesus was not "Eternal"- for he DIED-
So you think He is dead? The SON did not die, only the human part of Him died. But His Spirit lived on. Even before He rose He would be in Paraidese


AGAIN contrary to CHURCHianity- but certainly not the Bible!
You mean the New World Perversion?
