Jesus is ALL that the Father is for all the fullness of God the Father was pleased to dwell in Him and the creation was made through Him. He and the Father are One for it was and is the Father living in Him doing His work. Context therefore defines the answer yes or no in regard to Jesus being called God.
He never dies.
yes, He is all that the Father is
No, He has always been the Son.
I believe the new covenant introduced in Jesus's blood opened up a new message of the life being offered not whether Jesus was God and God gave proof by raising Jesus from the dead. Those who have a sincere faith in Him are not deterred by the orthodox version of the trinity. It has never bothered me nor stopped me from loving and believing in the Lord. IN fact as far back as my memory goes I have believed and loved Jesus long before issues such as the trinity came to my attention. And as Jesus stated His sheep hear His voice.
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.
but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Though no one in heaven and earth or under the earth rises up or sits down apart from the WILL of Christ Jesus, (except the One who gave Him that authority), Jesus abides within the framework of the Fathers will. It is His Fathers will to raise up on the last day all those the Father has given Him.
This is the new message of life being sent to all the world.
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; 26and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
If he has always been the son, Why no mention of the name Jesus in the ot?
Yes I believe verse 26 is speaking about the real Jesus.
Jesus is his Fathers image( Coll 1:15)
