Amen to all of that. Here is some Scripture from Revelation 1 which often gets overlooked:
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty...
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea...
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

How true:
John 1:9-10 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
9 There was the true Light [a]which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
2 Timothy 4:3-4 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires,
4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.

Absolutely, Thomas would never have called Jesus my God if it were not so. Jesus ask's Thomas to put your hand here and see it is I, not a spirit. and the following verse is for you and I;[SUP] "[/SUP]Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” John20:29
Some say Jesus was divine and filled with the Holy Spirit but not God. They cannot go that far because it would not fit within there twisted theology and then they would have to answer to Him on Judgment day. Keeping Jesus divine, but not fully human and fully God - gives false teachers a false sense of security - a half truth is a whole lie.
Some people may say how can this state people denying Jesus is God.
But it does.
1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
1Ti 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
1Ti 4:4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
1Ti 4:5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
This is the interpretation of the Bible that people will want to hear in the future,that is based on spiritual evolution through nature,and exalts people,and they will forbid to marry for population reduction on blessed mother earth,and command to abstain from meats because they are nature worshippers.
They do not claim Jesus as God,and not Savior of the world,but as a good teacher in spiritual enlightenment,and an ascended master,and avatar,and they too can become the same,for the Christ conscienceness will come upon all those that follow the New Age Christ.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. John 3:6
For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. 2 John 7
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 2 John 9
Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. John 7:16

John 6:61-63
King James Version(kJV)
61.)When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62.)What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
63.)It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

Hi MJ
The above highlighted is what I was alluding to when I said that If Jesus is not God then He was crazy, for sure.
He was not like Buddha or Krishna. Both very spiritual men and very enlightened by the Spirit of God. (maybe not THE HOLY SPIRIT).
Jesus did not give us the luxury of being able to say the He was a Great Teacher.
Buddha and Krishna, nor any other enlightened person, claimed to BE GOD.
They only claimed to understand Him and pass on that understanding.
And Krishna, in particular, wrote many beautiful things that could help anyone to live a better life.
We have to accept Jesus as GOD, or not at all.
He also wants us to live a better life and taught how,
He also explained that there's a Kingdom here to which we must pertain,
But He came to also save us...
From what?
From the grip of satan...
If Jesus has made us free, we are free indeed.
He is God --
or He is no one.
