I hadn’t thought about it but yes I suppose so.

He referred to himself as the Son of Man. He was (and is) also the Son of God.

Really, since his Father was God and his Mother was Mary, I guess you could say he was a little of both.

Anyway, I don’t claim to know everything, but I do know Jesus is not God with certainty.

I have to ask again (third time maybe more)...Was the Son of God present at creation? Has the Son of God always existed with the Father or is the Son of God a created being. For some reason everyone is avoiding answering those questions.

That's OK,...so do the modern day "Jews", which is why they reject Him, but theirs is one of seven mysteries in Scripture, the Mystery of the Blindness of Israel, which in part, occurs so that when the remnant returns to Him, His grace is more glorified.

God reveals Himself to man in many ways. We, though, are not to judge Him. Since He created man in His image, their may be dimensions of Him we are not able to comprehend, but still are able to understand what He intends for us to grasp.

Think of how difficult it is to communicate with unbelievers prior to them having a human spirit able to discern spiritual things, about anything spiritual.

Likewise, communicating the roles of the Godhead are sometimes best communicated by the persons in language identifiable with God and the relationships between them.

Do you agree that Jesus Christ is our High Priest, through whom our prayers to God the Father are mediated?

***It is interesting that you can have such certainty while being blind to the evidence which has been presented to you in post #294 and elsewhere.

Your “certainty” is a form of religion. It is directly contradicted by simple history, and in order to hold your certainty you need to throw all kinds of scriptures under the bus.
