Thank you again for your well thought out and researched responses. I know that the same thought processes you are using concerning this essential Christian doctrine - the nature and being of our Savior - were also used by the early theologians and originated with the teachings of the Apostles and direct disciples of Jesus. There was no doubt in their minds that Jesus really and truly was God incarnate. The doctrine of the Trinity was NOT something fabricated from conjecture but was clearly and unambiguously presented in Holy Scripture and they had a solid foundation upon which to base the earliest creeds that speak to this.
Amen!
