Re: jesus as god?

Suroor is correct, he is not God. God and Jesus are two seperate entities (for the millionth time)
Anwaar misunderstands the concept as do quite a few Muslims, including yourself, if you are indeed Muslim. My husband did for a short while also, luckily he is blessed with a good grasp of language and caught on quickly once he read a bit more.
Once again, read the Nicene Creed which I posted. It is quite clear about how they are seperate entities and not the same.

Yes, but I posted the New Catholic dictionary with the following definition for consubstantial, the word used in the Nicene creed:
consubstantial
(Latin: con, with; substantia, substance)
A translation of the Greek, homousios, chosen at the Council of Nicæa (A.D. 325) as the only correct word to express the nature of the Son of God. He is not inferior to the Father, nor posterior, nor merely like unto Him, but identical in substance and in essence with Him. He is truly God, God of very God, consubstantial with the Father, as the Nicene Creed has it, having, or rather, being, the Godhead no less than the Father.

So is the dictionary wrong? What do you think I am missing?
