Jesus called himself "the son of man" and Peter called him the "son of the living God". Jesus' 3 year career consisted of attempting to explain to people what "the kingdom of heaven' was like. CS Lewis (author of Lion, Witch and Wardrobe) said that the son of a wolf is still a wolf.

People are both, people and God, we are all FROM him, but some people are not FOR him.

God, the Almighty can not be less then God.
God is Unique, No partner, No association, Only provider, Only sustainer, Creator of every living and nonliving things on earth and all universes.
God is there since ever and will be there for ever.
Human born and die, Humans are creation can not be creator.
Jesus (pbuh) is son of mary(p.b.u. her), a female human. Jesus born miraculasely without intervention of man, little similar to as god created Adam(pbuh, first human) from dust, without man and woman.
Jesus is mighty Prophet of God almighty. Jesus is Human only. Chosen as mighty Prophet By God Almighty.

God came to walk this earth in the flesh / natural and His name was Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus was both God and man...
John 1
Prologue: Christ, the Eternal Word
1 In the beginning the Word already existed.
The Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
2 He existed in the beginning with God.
3 God created everything through him,
and nothing was created except through him.
4 The Word gave life to everything that was created,
and his life brought light to everyone.
5 The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness can never extinguish it.
6 God sent a man, John the Baptist, 7 to tell about the light so that everyone might believe because of his testimony. 8 John himself was not the light; he was simply a witness to tell about the light. 9 The one who is the true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.
10 He came into the very world he created, but the world didn’t recognize him. 11 He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. 12 But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. 13 They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God.
14 So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.
15 John testified about him when he shouted to the crowds, “This is the one I was talking about when I said, ‘Someone is coming after me who is far greater than I am, for he existed long before me.’”
16 From his abundance we have all received one gracious blessing after another. 17 For the law was given through Moses, but God’s unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.

Jesus was definitely a man. Was he really god's son is the big debate that has gone on for generations.

Well, Jesus claimed He was God, His followers said He was God, and God the Father said He was God...so I'm going to say, Yes Jesus Christ was God manifest in the flesh.

Jesus was born to the earth AS a man, but He is God's Son, and part of the Trinity, so yes.

Jesus is never recorded in the Bible as saying the exact words, “I am God” but God of the OT is not shy to say "I am God" and if Jesus is God, then how come Jesus never said it once in the NT like the God of the OT?
It is written as Jesus said, "The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself but the father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the work..."
Who does the work? God himself.
The word, "Dwelleth" or "Dwelt" is not manifestations because manifestations means, Act of being manifesting or state of being manifested.
"Dwelleth" means, to live, Inherent or existing in someone or something as permanent and inseparable quality or attribute.
Conclusion, God "reside" in His Son, Jesus Christ.
It is written, "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us" in John 1:14 KJV. God's plan is, the Word was make a human.
Jesus Christ is a man who told the truth which he heard from God. In other words, The Son of God was a messenger of God.

Yes, Jesus is the Son of God and also the son of man. He became mortal through a mortal birth. So he is both.

God came to Earth as a man, but he was and still continues to be God. In the Bible it says that he had the power to do things and chose not to. So yes.
God Bless
