Is Jesus Christ God?

Yes, indeed. I believe in the deity of Jesus Christ. In fact, more than you.

Perhaps you are not aware of the fact that Christianity has sort of a sliding scale. On one extreme are the Tritheists, like the Mormons and Catholics. Where the three-ness of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit takes precedence over the unity of God.

On the other extreme are those, like myself, who are aghast at the sort of Tritheism displayed in the pictures in the Baltimore Cathechism. They rather see the unity, or oneness of God, taking precedence over any sort of three-ness.

The mandate of the Bible is to understand God as one. To make him three separate and distinct beings is Polytheism, and is in direct opposition to the Bible.
