boatbums quoting Hebrews 1: "...in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe."

And yet, even here Paul does not say that "God appointed Himself as Son".
Paul maintained a distinction between God the Father and Jesus his Son.
So I don't see a problem with it.

Did you skip over that verse 8 where God says:

But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.

God calling the Son, God. Right there. Hard to miss or ignore.
