Thanks for getting back to me.

Do you understand these to be at least a portion of Mormon doctrine?

I extracted quotes from the web page in order to illustrate this published doctrine that quite clearly defines Jesus as separate from God the Father. Jesus is, according to this doctrine, inferior to GOD, and a creation of Him. Further, there are other statements of Mormon faith that appear to diverge significantly from orthodox Christian faith. There are many quotes that I lifted out in published order - I agree that it rambles on and is less than coherent.

I have found that in debates such as thesea claerly defined header paragraph followed by your quotes makes it much clearer to those you wish to as the question of. Just some advice. (It's worth what you paid for it...)

Now, as in life things are never as simple as they seem, without going back to your prior post which was difficult to extract meaning fro, i will just answer your questions here to the best of my admittedly limited ability (for I am just a man).

There is almost never a single relationship between things and most who start trying to pin things down in either life or religion to one end up defining a relationship that in reality just does not exist.

We have amnay relationships with God:

Creation
Child
Potential Peer
Sworn Subject

and many more, this is just an example.

Jesus in Mormon theology has a very special status, and while he shares some relationships with us, there are others that are unique to him and him alone.

For example, whiule Jesus has all the relationships in the list above, he also has these:

Memeber of the God head
First begotten spirit child
Only begotten child in the flesh
Co-Creator (as in he was assigned to create everything God created, and followed Gods the Father's plans perfectly.

So, some relationships like child people would thing jesus inferiro, some like memeber ofthe God head people would not think that. As for me personally, Jesus is the loyal Son who has earned all that his father hath. Thus to deal with him is to deal with the father for all practical intnets and purposes, however, he still defers tot he father out of fililial responsibility and love.

I truly did not understand enough of your first post to answer this question.

Id did my best toanswer this post, is that good enough?
