If Christ is The one and True God As some claim then how come at 1 Corinthians 15:20-28 say that when "all things are subjected to chirst with the exception of the one who subjected all things to him, then the Son will also subject himself to the One who subjected all things to him, that God may be all things to everyone." So why would Jesus subject himself to God if he is God?
And at Hebrews 5:7 it mentions Christ was favorable heard by God for his Godly fear and reverance of God.
Why would christ need godly fear if he were God in the flesh?

Jesus Christ is not God, he is his Son whom God created in the beginning. Proverbs 8:22-36 and Colossians 1:15. Jesus had a prehuman existence in heaven before coming to be born as a perfect human able to pay the ransom for Adam's lost perfect life that plunged man into sin and death by giving himself as a ransom sacrifice. Jesus in heaven is known as Michael the Archangel, the first created and only begotten Son of God, all angels are sons of the true God, Job 2:1. Because Sirius/ without Jehovah God, Jesus would not have been able to do it, all of Jesus' power comes from Jehovah God, only Jehovah God can give life. Jesus was God's Masterworker. Jesus is not the creator, Jehovah is.

The word "God" was written "Elohim" in Hebrew which is plural and not in singular form. God is a family of more than one person. There is only one "God" which means there is only one family of God.
In Genesis you will notice the word "God said let US create human in OUR image and likeness".
That is why, there is the Father and the Son which is Jesus. The Gospel or the Good News is the offer of the Father to become a member of the family of God through Jesus Christ.
Hence, you can find verses about "Children of God" many times in the Bible. also "begotten son of God" (Father). Check out Wikipedia and search for the word Elohim you will find some additional info.

Christ was the incarnation of the living God on earth and now sits on the right hand of His Father, God.
Muslims and some Jews claim Christians are polytheistic. This is not true, but they understand only a tiny portion of the magesty of God (the All Powerful). God so much more. God said of Christ, "This is my Son, in whom I am well pleased." That's enough for me for now.
I will be told how He does what He does, when I am in His presence.

purely a demented guy or woman could desire to opt for this kind of silly and fake doctrine. so what in regards to the apostolic church, which relatively had the only way, written in God's be conscious, in Acts 2? they under no circumstances heard of this kind of org as this, and that they taught the spectacular plan of salvation, and it relatively is been attainable to anybody, as a results of fact the Day of Pentecost. The JW org completely DENIES this real plan of salvation. they call the apostles and their coaching a lie, (as does very nearly the different church. they'll have not have been given something to do with the real plan of God, as revealed on the Day of Pentecost. there is not any opposite direction. so this leaves very nearly anybody out....by potential of their own selection; no longer as a results of fact God does no longer save them in the event that they OBEYED HIS PLAN.

Because God sent a [part of Himself down to earth], not all of Himself.
If God is God, he is omnipresent. How could He then be omnipresent had He sent ALL of Himself to earth? He didn't.
He also was in the heavens answering prayers, He was everywhere. If you could be everywhere, then multiplicity would be obtainable.
Jesus being a part of God and God at the same time, He prayed to the Father, because He was a part of God. Not ALL of God. This may be hard to grasp, but it is true. Then once He died on the cross and accended into Heaven to be with the Father, He was once again made a part of the Father in a united spiritual form. Thus ONE with Him, no longer in the body.
In human form He was a part of God, in Spiritual form He was ONE with God, as He is today.

Christ was fully man and fully God. As a human being, he did not have the privalege of communing with God the Father as he once did as he did in heaven, so he had to pray. So, being human, he had to actually be instructed by God the Father.

Answer this, is He a True God, or are you saying that He is an untrue God?
You JW's believe that Jehovah God created the heavens and earth through Jesus Christ, how do you deal with this scripture?
:
Isa 44:24-25
Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish
Why does the scripture say "Alone" or "by Myself"?

From another epistle of Paul.
Philippians 2
5Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
And another:
Colossians 2
8Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

because Jesus Christ is the son of god, many people believe in the trinity because they base themselves on one or two texts the wrong way
