To quote your reference Josephus said:
About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he was one who performed surprising deeds and was a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly. He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks. He was the Messiah. And when, upon the accusation of the principal men among us, Pilate had condemned him to a cross, those who had first come to love him did not cease. He appeared to them spending a third day restored to life, for the prophets of God had foretold these things and a thousand other marvels about him. And the tribe of the Christians, so called after him, has still to this day not disappeared.

There is no contradiction in the Bible about weather Jesus was a man or God. It clearly states that Jesus Christ Is God. God did not created Jesus, God IS Jesus Christ.
He loved mankind so much that he came to Earth to become a human being like you and I, in order to fulfill the prophecy, and to die to pay for our sins.
Although he was crucified on the cross and died like a thief, like a human being, he rosed from the grave and lived. The resurrection of Jesus proves that he IS God.

I don't say he's a deity....
he WAS a man, if he was real at all
and, to the person that said this:
You're a "Johnson" or a "Smith" just like your dad is a "Johnson" or a "Smith." Jesus is God, too, just as His Father is. Juvenile, I know, but it helps them understand.
MY dad is a lawyer, doesn't make ME a lawyer!
Jesus was a man, not a god
G-d is G-d...G-d is the father of EVERYONE, not just ONE

The nature of Jesus Christ has been debated for centuries by theologians, philosophers, and everyone else. Yet, there is no consensus. Why do you think you have the answer? What is so special about your answer?

Josephus mentioned Jesus, and scholars believe he was just quoting what some cleric told him.

I guess the same way people can say Santa Claus manages to visit every child on earth in one night.

Actually, the incarnation of a God/King as a human is a very old belief which predates Christianity.

Is it imposible for a deity to possess a human body?

We are all deities.
You are God, and so am I. The only "God" is expressing himself through you.
You are on the leading edge of creation. There is no deity waiting for you to catch up.
