It seems that if you really study the Godhead for yourself and stop viewing the other side through the eyes of what you've been told about it, most of the arguement is over the terminology used.

I do believe that the glorified/resurrected Jesus is God and Lord of all. When we get to heaven, we will see one sitting on the throne as He has been exhaulted, all power is given to him, and He has been made Lord of All. Being that He is the image of the invisible God and we are after the resurrection, Jesus is no longer in the role of the lamb or son and he has now taken on a more accurate image, or representation, of what God is. We cannot see God (spirit), but we can see that symbol, image, representation, of God, Jesus Christ.

I pray to Jesus and use phrases like Jesus, Lord, God, and my Savior. I do not use the term Father, but maybe that's just how I was raised.

carry on...
