He can't be God and he isn't God. He is the Son of God.
The trinity doctrine is man-made and it had it's beginning in ancient Babylon, The Babylonians did not worship the one true God, but triads of gods, shown in historical pictures having three heads.
People should consider what the Bible really teaches about the identity of God and his Son and God's active force or power.
Here is something to think about also:
Jesus was dead for the better part of three days. If Jesus is God and was dead for that long--then who was ruling in heaven all that time? If the holy spirit is also God, then it was dead too. So there would have been no God alive to pray to those three days, no God to do anything for anyone. Satan could have taken over the entire universe since "God" was dead. Satan is powerful and could have caused complete chaos for the earth, worse than we see now, if there was no God more powerful to prevent him from doing so.
This Scripture also shows that Jesus cannot be God--""No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." (Mark 13:32 ) NIV
If Jesus were God who knows all things, then he would know the day and hour, but he doesn't because Jesus is not God. And the holy spirit is not even mentioned.
Christendom has misled so many people by teaching them such a false pagan doctrine. If only people could come to know the true God (Psalms 83:18) and who he really is. Jesus tried to tell people about his Father and that they should worship his Father alone.
Two reasons people believe in such doctrines are found at
2 Timothy 4:3-4--"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables." and at John 12:39-40--"Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again: “ He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, Lest they should see with their eyes, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.”
I hope this answer helps.

This is a very common question and the answer is found in understanding the Trinity and the incarnation of Jesus.
The Trinity is the doctrine that there is only one God in all existence. This one God exists as three persons: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are not three gods, but one God. Each is a separate person, yet each of them is, in essence, divine in nature.
A close analogy of the Trinity can be found by looking at the concept of time. Time is past, present, and future. There are three "aspects" or "parts" of time. This does not mean that there are three "times," but only one. Each is separate, in a sense, yet each shares the same nature, or essence. In a similar way, the Trinity is three separate persons who share the same nature.
The doctrine of the incarnation in Christian teaching is that Jesus, who is the second person of the Trinity, added to himself human nature and became a man.
The Bible says that Jesus is God in flesh, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.....and the word became flesh and dwelt among us" (John 1:1, 14); and, "For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form" (Col. 2:9). Jesus, therefore, has two natures. He is both God and man.
Jesus is completely human, but He also has a divine nature.

As God's son he is a god. (John 1:1)
Capital "G" does not mean God Almighty
(Read Judges 13:21,22)
John 10:30, Jesus clarified his godship as equal to the human judges of Israel (Ps 82:6, John 10:34, 35.
Please read John 10:25,36,37
Jesus taught that he is God's Son.
In the prophetic drama of Abraham and Isaac,
Abraham pictured Jehovah, Isaac pictured Jesus,
Two separate and distinct individuals. Abraham did not try to sacrifice himself.
2 Cor 4:4 Is Jesus God or the image of God?

I am the son of a human and yet I am also human. Jesus and God are the same way.

The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are one, in that they agree with one another at all times; therefore Jesus is God.

It is very hard to understand. As a finite human, we cannot fully understand a infinite God. The Holy Trinity is God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.

It is a mystery that our simple human minds cannot fully understand. Jesus tells us in John 10:30 "The Father and I are one."
Hope this helps!!!
God bless!

So if you are the son of a human how can you be human?
That is what makes you human and that is what makes Him God.
