Even though man was created after His image and after His likeness? So scripture can testify as seeing Him as a man, just not as fallen sinful man that are dying because of sin passed on from Adam. Just because Jesus had existed as the God men had seen in the O.T., before He became incarnated as the Son of Man so He can give His life as a ransom for many, this does not negate His deity at all.
The Holy Spirit of God (not of the son of Man Jesus) His name is Jealous seeing he alone own everything will not share his glory with the dying flesh of mankind. jesus the Son of man
Exodus 34:14
For thou shalt worship no other god: for the
Lord, whose
name is
Jealous, is a
jealous God:
The son of man honors the father. The father does not honor the Son of man living in a dying body, he has no power
No spotlight on the Son of man jesus. No power from him
The singular anti-christ and plural anti-christs must be compared or rightly divided .
Antichrist means another Christ or teaching master. The one spirit anti-christ he works deceiving antichrists( many).
Like the demonstration with Peter one of anti christs (many) moved by the spirit of lies the antichrist (singular)
God gave words to Jesus the son of man in order to rebuke the one spirit of the anti-Christ that again works in many antichrists.Peter one of the many antichrsts was move by the one Spirt of lies (legion) he forbid the Son of man jesu from doing the will of the father.
Mathew 16: 22-23 Then
Peter took him, and began to rebuke
him, saying, Be it far from
thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.But
he turned, and said unto
Peter, Get thee behind
me,
Satan: thou art an
offence unto
me: for thou
savourest not the things that be of God, but
those that be of
men.
The Father did honor the Son as God by His witness from Heaven along with the Holy Ghost's witness.
Matthew 3:15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.
16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
What righteousness was fulfilled at this event? The fulfillment of this prophesy from Isaiah that the Lord God and His Spirit sent God Our Redeemer. Read below as Jesus is speaking before His incarnation.
Isaiah 48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
17 Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.
So do consider His words regarding the Father's standard of judgment over every believer and that there is only one way to honor the Father by honoring the Son because the moment you stop honoring the Son, you are no longer honoring the Father.
John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
There is only one way to come to God the Father in worship and that is to honor & glorify the Son of Man for His name is above every other name for how God the Father is glorified through His Son.
John 13:31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said
, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Look at what has happened before His ascension in how all power was given unto Jesus Christ.
Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,
All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
So you may want to go before that throne of grace and ask for help in correcting your testimony regarding the Son of Man aka the Lord Jesus Christ because He is still the Son of God as God even when He was on earth.
