Son of God. How can Jesus sit next to His own right hand ?
Luke 22:69 (New American Standard Bible)
69"(A)But from now on (B)THE SON OF MAN WILL BE SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND of the power OF GOD."
SO many large denominations WANT you to believe lies. Make them prove themselves through the Gospel/ Bible ! Read Revelation- and the footnotes for information on where their loyalties lie ! - like the great mystery babylon !
Following ALL of Jesus instructions and example IS becoming a true Christian. Accepting God's challenge, to live like Jesus, accept Him, become baptised through a full immersion, study to show yourself approved, seek out others of a true, like faith, ETC !!!!!!
Pray to God, like His Son, Jesus taught us to - specifically in the book of Matthew - on the Sermon on the Mount - Pray to God, establish a giving, worshipping, thankful relationship with Him. -Realize that only through Jesus can you know God - end your prayer by saying " In Jesus' name, Amen."
Pray in private, like the Bible tells us to. Pray for knowledge and understanding. It WILL happen if you pray for it.

Yes, Jesus is the son of God and Jesus is God.
Following Jesus' instructions makes one a "real" Christian. One could not possibly be considered a "real" Christian if one rejects following Jesus' instructions, now could he?

Jesus is God, the Son of the Father and of the Holy Spirit. All these things make up God. God id the Son, the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus is clearly taught in scripture as the Son of God, but with the full authority of God to forgive or condemn sinners, to accept prayer, and that whoever he approve of is approved by God.
Besides, John 1 talks about how "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God.... and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us". Also Paul quotes an early Christian hymn in his epistle to the Philippians "Christ, who being in very nature God...."

jesus is the son of god. and jehovah god is his father. jesus was his first creation. usually people use john 1:1 to try and say that jesus is god cause it says that the word which is jesus gods son was a god but what that means is that in his times when he did what jehovah god asked him to do which was preach his word people considered him a god also because of the miracles that he did with jehovah gods help and until this very day people believe that god and jesus are one with the holy spirit which is untrue because jehovah is the almighty god and jesus is his son and the holy spirit is gods power! this is all in the bible .

Accepting Jesus as the Second Person of the Trinity, believing that He (God) in the Second Person became flesh and died for all the sins of mankind, past, present and future. Knowing this, believing it and accepting it opens the door to Him and allows Him to come into your spirit in the form of the Third Person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. When truth comes in, your life is changed. When God comes in, you know it. It's not just a matter of knowing about Jesus and following Him, it's more about knowing Him personally like in the same way you know your mother or father.

But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons." This is "the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God": God has visited his people. He has fulfilled the promise he made to Abraham and his descendants. He acted far beyond all expectation—he has sent his own "beloved Son."
We believe and confess that Jesus of Nazareth, born a Jew of a daughter of Israel at Bethlehem at the time of King Herod the Great and the emperor Caesar Augustus, a carpenter by trade, who died crucified in Jerusalem under the procurator Pontius Pilate during the reign of the emperor Tiberius, is the eternal Son of God made man. He "came from God," "descended from heaven," and "came in the flesh." For "the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. . . . And from his fullness have we all received, grace upon grace."
Moved by the grace of the Holy Spirit and drawn by the Father, we believe in Jesus and confess: "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." On the rock of this faith confessed by St. Peter, Christ built his Church.
"To preach . . . the unsearchable riches of Christ"
Peace and every blessing!

"If you declare that Jesus is Lord, and believe that God brought him back to life, you will be saved" Ro 10:9
"Lord" here is "Kyrios" in the Greek, which is used to translate the highest name of God in the Hebrew "YHWH" or I Am
Joh 8:58 Jesus told them, "I can guarantee this truth: Before Abraham was ever born, I am."
I am is the name of God "YHWH"
" Although he was in the form of God and equal with God, he did not take advantage of this equality. Instead, he emptied himself by taking on the form of a servant, by becoming like other humans, by having a human appearance. He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, death on a cross.
This is why God has given him an exceptional honor––the name honored above all other names–– so that at the name of Jesus everyone in heaven, on earth, and in the world below will kneel"
"And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you."
Decide for yourself who he is.

Jesus Christ, also known as Jehovah and the God of the Old Testament, is indeed the Only Begotten Son in the flesh of God the Father.
He is both the Son of God and the God of this earth, having created this world and countless others at the divine investiture of the Father.
Jesus Christ does all to the honor of the Father, so we pray to the Father, but always in the name of Jesus Christ.
