There is a false religion out in the world called the religion of Christianity which attempts to "mimic" the words of Jesus in an attempt to make themselves righteous.
This religion "dictates" others into having the fruit of the spirit. The true Christian life is complete reliance on what Christ has already done for us and this is realized in us by grace through faith alone in what He has done.
This religion says to follow Jesus words but their reliance is on their "doing" and not on the gospel of the grace of God in Christ alone.
This doesn't mean that the life of Christ is not manifested in those true Christians because the life of Christ Himself is manifested in and through us to reveal the true nature of love and grace to a hurt and dying world that needs to see our loving Father and Lord for who they truly are.
Jesus is God manifested in the flesh to take our place. Jesus is God and so is the Father and so is the Holy Spirit. Jesus was not a created being - He existed as one with the Father through the Holy Spirit from time memorial.
To deny that Jesus is God is a very serious false doctrine. Jesus is God in the flesh ( the only begotten son - unique - there is no other and He came from the bosom of the Father ) and is our representative as the Son of man in the Godhead.
