The godhood of Christ Jesus is Biblical

In act I think I have quite comprehensively addressed Con's arguments from scripture, which is the only source that counts in such a debate. Again Con relies on the demonstrably altered version of John 1:1, however it is not the only available version and is certainly not the one which fits in with the rest of scripture. Other variations of rendering John 1:1 also exist dating from the 14th century: 1966, 2001 The Good News Bible reads: ". .. and he was the same as God. " 1970, 1989 The Revised English Bible reads: ". .. and what God was, the Word was. " 14th century - Wycliffe's Bible (from the 4th-century Latin Vulgate) reads: "In the beginning was the word, and the word was at God, and God was the word. 1956 The Wuest Expanded Translation reads: "In the beginning the Word was existing. And the Word was in fellowship with God the Father. And the Word was as to His essence absolute deity"[8] 1808 "and the Word was a god" - Thomas Belsham The New Testament, in An Improved Version, Upon the Basis of Archbishop Newcome"s New Translation: With a Corrected Text , London. 1864 "the LOGOS was God, This was in the Beginning with God" A New Emphatic Version (right hand column) 1864 "and a god was the Word" (left hand column interlinear reading) The Emphatic Diaglott by Benjamin Wilson, New York and London. 1867 "In the beginning was the gospel preached through the Son. And the gospel was the word, and the word was with the Son, and the Son was with God, and the Son was of God" - The Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible. 1935 "and the Word was divine" - The Bible"An American Translation, by John M. P. Smith and Edgar J. Goodspeed, Chicago. 1955 "so the Word was divine" - The Authentic New Testament, by Hugh J. Schonfield, Aberdeen. 1978 "and godlike sort was the Logos" - Das Evangelium nach Johannes, by Johannes Schneider, Berlin. 1822 "and the Word was a god. " - The New Testament in Greek and English (A. Kneeland, 1822. ); 1863 "and the Word was a god. " - A Literal Translation Of The New Testament (Herman Heinfetter [Pseudonym of Frederick Parker], 1863); 1885 "and the Word was a god. " - Concise Commentary On The Holy Bible (R. Young, 1885); 1879 "and the Word was a god. " - Das Evangelium nach Johannes (J. Becker, 1979); 1911 "and the Word was a god. " - The Coptic Version of the N. T. (G. W. Horner, 1911); 1958 "and the Word was a god. " - The New Testament of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Anointed" (J. L. Tomanec, 1958); 1829 "and the Word was a god. " - The Monotessaron; or, The Gospel History According to the Four Evangelists (J. S. Thompson, 1829); 1975 "and the Word was a god. " - Das Evangelium nach Johannes (S. Schulz, 1975); 1962, 1979 "'the word was God. ' Or, more literally, 'God was the word. '" The Four Gospels and the Revelation (R. Lattimore, 1979) 1975 "and a god (or, of a divine kind) was the Word" Das Evangelium nach Johnnes, by Siegfried Schulz, G"ttingen, Germany All of which fit in completely with the rest of scripture on the subject without causing any contradictions or difficulties. I have never denied that, as scripture says, God's son is also a god, but he never has been The True God. Otherwise he wold not need to hand the Kingdom back to his father at the end of his reign. 1 Corinthians 15:22-26 ASV(i) 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christs, at his coming. 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power. 25 For he must reign, till he hath put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be abolished is death. . Even then he is still in submission to his father. There really is no way to consistently support the trinity teaching, not even historically since it was not accepted into "Christianity" until the late 4th century. However scripture supports 100% the fact that God's son was: The first and only solo creation of his father. The one who took over care of humanity after Adams fall. The one who came to earth to occupy the specially prepared body of Jesus and thus become the Christ. The one who, having fulfilled his God-given task of bringing humanity back to a suitable level of holiness, gives the Kingdom back to his father and continues to serve under him.
