He wasn’t God. He said he wasn’t. He was the “son of God”.
This is what you get with the buffet style christianity of paulinism:
a millennia of knot-twisting to the point of incoherency.

"He wasn’t God. He said he wasn’t. He was the 'son of God'."

That is spurious "cherry-picking" of Scripture. Jesus also acknowledged His own mortal nature while here on Earth -- by repeatedly referring to Himself as "The son of man".

That, in no way, denied his total Deity.

It appears that you need to [re]read John 1:1.

(That [linked] page gives John 1:1 in all English translations -- and they unanimously state, "was God".)

Serious Bible scholars will note that the blasphemous "NWB" (New World Bible) -- which states: "was a god" is excluded from the list...
