If more than a perfect human and mediator between man and God (1 Tim. 3:5) who do you say Christ was?

[Cronos]

well, good question. People have read that phrase and come up with:
1. That Jesus was God, and God is one, yet Jesus spoke to God, hence God was somehow "divided" into Jesus and God the Father (and since I am of this position, I perceive this when I read the bible as a whole).
2. Some have perceived this that Jesus was a manifestation of a "superior god" come to show humans "the way out" of the creation made by Yahwh who in this system is an ignorant, wilful demiurge
3. Some groups have perceived that Jesus was a lesser god, the first-born of creation, a demiurge, a tool through which God created the universe, another name for Michael the archangel.
4. Some would say that He was a superior angel, yet still a creation

The problem with point 2 is that it will have to reject the OT completely (though it does read off that) and reject Christ referring to himself as the fulfillment of the OT, not coming to destroy it
Ditto for point 4.
