For those who push the idea that “Jesus was God”

 Truth is, it is actually a “yes and no” answer.

Jesus (whose true, Hebrew name is Yeshua) was the Divine Messiah, the SON; and yes, he was divine, because he was "the Word" who was with God from the beginning (John 1:1 and 14), which means, he came FROM God (Yahweh-Elohim) who placed him in the womb of a human woman. If Yahweh hadn’t done that, we wouldn’t have had THE Messiah walking around in Israel!  

Yeshua (the name his mother gave him and by which he was known) was sent to do the Father’s Will; NOT to replace Him  - which is what Christianity teaches!  They never mention Yahweh, except in passing when they occasionally refer to “the Father.” 

Jesus did NOT place himself into Miriam’s womb as an embryo, nor come to replace the Father.  He even SAID he came to DO the Father’s Will, and not his own:

Luke 4:43 "But he (Yeshua/Jesus) said, "I must preach the good news of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent."

Luke 8:1 And it happened after these things that Y'shua was going around in the cities and in the villages and was preaching and declaring the Kingdom of Elohim.

Acts 28:23 From morning till evening the Apostle Paul explained and declared the Kingdom of God and tried to convince people about Yeshua from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.

Even when I was a "baby Christian," I couldn't help but wonder why churches taught us to concentrate only on "Jesus" as God, as if He were the "be-all, end-all"; while the "Father" is normally pushed into the background, as if He doesn’t matter … when, in reality, whole first three-fourths of the Bible is all about “the Father!”  We finally get to meet “Jesus” in the LAST FOURTH of the Bible…

Rarely does anyone stop to ask the questions: "Can GOD be born or die?"; or "To whom did Yeshua pray in the days before he was crucified?  Himself?"; and “If GOD was hanging on that hideous Roman death device, WHO were his final, dying words directed at in Luke 23:46, which says, “Crying out with a loud voice, Yeshua said, “Father! Into your hands I commit my spirit.”  

The answer to those simple questions above has to be, "NO!" - he wasn’t GOD per se, while in his earth suit …NOT while he was here on earth as God's SON and MESSIAH, DOING GOD’s WILL (the mission that will be completed when Yeshua returns as The Lion of Judah to rule and reign on earth for a thousand years!  

When Yeshua died, his soul (which was and is definitely a part of Yahweh-Elohim!) returned to "sit at the right hand of God.”  In other words, he was taken back to the place where he originated as “The Word” - John 1:1, 14.  (See Acts 7:55–56; Romans 8:34; Ephesians 1:20; Colossians 3:1; Hebrews 1:3 and 10:12; and Revelation 3:21.)
