The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is the Son of God and NOT God the Son.
At Mat16:13-16,Jesus questions his disciples: "....Who are men saying the Son of man is?".They said:"Some say John the Baptist,others Elijah,still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them:"You,though,who do you say I am?".In answer Simon Peter said:"You are the Christ,the Son of the living God".
Even Jesus' disciples knew he wasnt God.Jesus knew he wasnt God,nor did he teach that he was.
Countless times throughout the Greek Scriptures Jesus is recorded as praying to His Father and giving praise to His Father.
The concept of Jesus being God stems from pagan teachings of triune Gods. The teaching of a "Trinity" was fused in with apostate Christianity in the 4th Century CE.
It is not a Bible teaching
I need to add that "Doma" sure has some misunderstood conceptions of the Scriptures!!

Of course not. Jesus acknowledged that fact while here on earth and soon he will prove just who his God and Father is. Soon all will have to acknowledge that Jehovah is the only true God and that Jesus is his only-begotten Son and the firstborn of all creation.

No.
But he is a god.
He is the King of the Kingdom, and the Messiah of those that truly follow him.
He is the Priest in the manner of Melchizedek.
But he directs that worship goes to the Father.

Jesus is a man
Joh 8:40 but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.

Jesus is treated like He is God:
He is worshiped by humans and angels (Matt 14:33; 28:9; John 9:38; Heb 1:6; Rev 5:8-14; examples where the wrong is stopped: Acts 12:20-23; Rev 19:10). He receives the kind of "service" that is only allowed to God (Rev 22:3f Greek--latreuo; example where wrong is stopped: Matt 4:10). People even pray to Jesus (Acts 7:59f; 2 Cor 12:8; 1 John 5:13-15).
Titles of Deity are held by both God and Jesus; yet, these titles are such that only One can possess them." The Alpha and the Omega; the First and the Last" (Isa 44:6; Rev 1:8, 11, 17f; 2:8; 21:6; 22:13).
"The King of kings and the Lord of lords" (1 Tim 6:15; Rev 17:14; 19:16).
Jesus is said to be the "Rock" who sustained the Israelites during their wilderness wanderings. However, Israel at the time believed the LORD their God was their "Rock" (1 Cor 10:4; Deut 32:4).
In the epistles, Paul juxtaposes God and Jesus when referring to "our Savior" (1 Tim 1:1; 2:3; 2 Tim 1:10; Titus 1:3; 2:10, 13; 3:4, 6). But the LORD says, ". . . there is no savior besides Me" (Hos 13:4, Isa 43:11).
Here are some scriptures showing Jesus' deity:
Phil 2:6: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God
1 Tim 3:16: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Rom 8:9: But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Col 2:9: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Titus 2:13: Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ
Heb 1:8: But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
John 8:24: I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that 'I AM', ye shall die in your sins. 58: Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, 'I AM'.
Exodus 314: And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
John 10:30: I and my Father are one. 31: Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. 32: Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? 33: The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
This next one is my favorite:
Acts 20:28: Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
Did you notice it was God who had purchased with His own blood? Who was it that shed His blood? It was none other than Jesus, this scripture said it was God. So Jesus is God!!!

It is the hallmark of pagan, idolatrous faiths, to confuse God with human beings, either that God becomes human, or that humans become God. In Biblical history, one sees this confusion with Pharaoh, and with Haman (boo, hiss!), as well as with Antiochus, the Assyrian King against whom the Maccabbees rebelled. Furthermore, as one example, in Hosea 11:9 God tell us, "For I am God and not a man."
