With all these ideas on various threads about the Son not being God himself, I believe it is important to realize that Jesus himself informs us of the absolute Deity of the Son of the God.
Matt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
See, we are to:
1. Teach all nations
2. Baptize disciples
in the NAME of the Father, Son, and the HolyGhost. The Father, Son, and HolyGhost are all put on the same level by Jesus Christ.
Again,
1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven,
the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Again, we see that the Word is Deity.
So all these talk about the Son just being a man (or some anointed man) and not God himself is absolutely in contradiction of Matt 28:19 and
1 John 5:7.
For those who dispute
Isaiah 9:6 and say "his name shall be called everlasting Father" does not mean he is the everlasting Father, well let's take an example:
When you were born, your parents said "his name shall be called John."
When you were growing up, didn't your family call you John? didn't your friends call you John? So how then shall we not call Jesus Christ the EVERLATSTING FATHER.
The bible says "his name shall be called..." In other words, that is what
he will be called
6For unto us a child is born, unto us
a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and
his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Is Jesus the Prince of Peace? No doubt!
Is Jesus Wonderful? No doubt!
Sure enough, he is The Mighty God (not just "Mighty God"), but The Mighty God.
He is the Everlasting Father, and He is definitely the counsellor.
The SON is THE MIGHTY GOD, Amen!!!
Note: Just give any unbeliever
Isaiah 9:6 and even they can see that the Son spoken about in that scripture bears the name conferred on him in that scripture.
