In a nutshell, (I have a longer version) I beleive in Jesus and not God. Now even though Jesus preaches the word of God can I still question Jesus' beleifs without beleiving in God? If so, what is this religion called or generally referred to as?

Okay, now that I've recieved some feedback, here's the "I have a longer version" bit. To me, I beleive that Jesus was decieved into thinking he was the "Son of God". I can beleive in a man who did great things (Jesus) but not in an "All powerful being" (God). Also, I apologize if this offends anyone.

That's absolutely possible, only with the Holy Spirit.
What exactly is that?

The only sin never forgiven is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.
Blasphemy of both the Father and the Son are forgiven.
Why can you doubt God and Jesus, but never doubt the Holy Spirit? What is it?

Once you figure that out, you will have a much better understanding of it all. This understanding is the basis for all that Jesus taught.
God is not a belief.

No, it's not possible to believe in Jesus and not God, and I'll give you an easy explanation.
Your father had a son which is you. You know he's your father and you've told others that he's your father. So, do you think they should just believe you "happened" into the world without your father having anything to do with it? Jesus is the Son of God, to not believe in God would be to deny Jesus ever existed.

Well, let's see - apparently you believe Jesus was simply a person, in which case that's easy and perfectly rational, though there is considerable evidence pointing to his existence as a composite character only.
I don't know of a name for that belief. Maybe Jesusian - can't be Christian, because the "Christ" part comes from Jewish mythology and requires belief in god.

not possible. Jesus came to preach about God The Father's love. Jesus is God the Son-incarnate! Jesus mission' was to redeem our sins through is passion,death, and resurrection so that we can be united to God the Father once more through him and in God the Holy Spirit. Jesus also came to start his Church, which teaches about God.

You do not believe in Jesus because if you believed in Jesus then you would believe in God too (because they are one). And because you do not belive in God you do not believe in Jesus.
You better read your bible and get your thoughts straightened out because when you die (or when the rapture comes, whether you believe in it or not its gonna happen) and you get up to Heaven, and you go to God to see if you get to go to Heaven or Hell, He's gonna say "I do not know you" You will really regret it.
Think about that.
Don't believe me? Then ask yourself 'where am I going when I die?' You may think your sure but you are not really. This is serious stuff.

God the Father and God the
Son (Jesus) are both one in
the same. What is the obstacle to you believing in
God? Is it because Jesus was
human and God is not?
You are free to believe whatever you want, but what
a shame to waste your time
on believing something that
is phoney?

Of course, you can believe that Jesus was a real person at one point in history, and believe some of his teachings like the "Golden Rule".(You know what I mean). Though you don't have to believe the fact that he says theres a god and the fact he can walk on water.
