This is a unique faith in the world and as to this particular truth the more Biblical.

I Don't think it's rejecting that Jesus is both Father and Son. It is that Jesus is the son in whom the Father dwelt. That is why Jesus could say;
John 14. 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
We know exactly which things were done through his humanity. It is when he did those things that boggle the mind that it comes into question....
Luk 8:25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
BTW Christ is the name used exclusively of Jesus not of the Father.
