Thomas said my Lord and my God. Right on both counts.

my lord and my lord. Then Jesus said to him, " Thomas because you seen me, You have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe." From the end of John 28 - 29.

Thomas said "my Lord and my God!". Jesus is fully God because God is Tri-une. God is one God who is revealed in three Persons who are co-equal, co-eternal, and eternally distinct. God is still one God, one Being though. God is a Spirit, and He is omnipresent, omnicient, omnipotent, infinite, eternal, and holy. God the Father is fully God, God the Son is fully God, and God the Holy Spirit is fully God. There is one God. Therefore, Jesus the Son is fully God. In Hebrews 1:8 God the Father Himself calls the Son "God". In John 8:58, Jesus said "Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was born, I AM." A direct reference to Exodus where God called Himself "I AM". Jesus is Yahweh, the great I AM. The Jews understood this, and they accused Jesus of blasphemy and picked up stones to stone Him. Jesus demonstrated that He is God by resurrecting His own body on the third day. www.equip.org

...and my God! Take note Thomas DID NOT say: 'my Almighty God'. This is one verse that is taken out of context by those trying to twist the Bible to suit their pagan belief in the Trinity.
In the Bible the title god', or 'God' (theos in Greek) refers to powerful humans, admits the Jerusalem Bible (Catholic) in its footnote on Psalm 45:7,8.
Other bible verses that says the words 'god' or 'God' are titles are Psalm 82:1-6; 1Corin 8:5,6, etc.
True, Jesus is a 'god' or 'God' ( John 1:1) But, he himself admitted that he is inferior in power to his Father, Jehovah, the Almighty God. ( John 14:28; Exodus 6:3, King James)
Jehovah is the God of gods says Deut 10:17, Psalm 136:2, etc.
So, throw away your belief on the Trinity. It is unscriptural, pagan, and it misrepresent God as a 3-headed monster.
Try to find harmony, rather than contradictions in the Bible; unity rather than dispersed meaningless verses.
