Then there are those like me that believe Jesus is
just the Christ the Son of the Living God, the messiah,
the Savior of His people.
You do understand that by your calling Jesus the Son of God you have admitted that He was God?
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Please notice that one who was made flesh was the WORD from verse 1 who is also called God in verse 1. Now in vrs 14 the word made flesh is called the only begotten.
Hebrews 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.
Question: is called God in this verse?
Answer: The Son!
Therefore to call Jesus the Son of God is to call Him God.

Glad to see that we actually agree on this.
What you fail to realize. I do not care that you are deceived.
You will reap what you believe, not me.
You have not the slightest clue as to why
God sent me here to converse with you.
The Word is God. Jesus is not the Word. Jesus is the Light. Which comes from the Word. It is all there in your bible. In the First Chapter of the book of John.

the word is God?
Joh 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. Joh 1:15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.'") Joh 1:16 And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. Joh 1:17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
