Lets stop the confusion dealing with the Trinity doctrine. Christ is not the father/Most High but many say he is God because of this scripture 1Timothy 3:16 1Timothy 3:16 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. First off if you dont have the understanding of the word God in the Hebrew and Greek this scripture can confuse you. Hebrew word for God H410 אל êl ale Shortened from H352; strength; as adjective mighty; especially the Almighty (but used also of any deity): - God (god), X goodly, X great, idol, might (-y one), power, strong. Compare names in “-el.” It says (strength, mighty; especially the Almighty but used also of any deity. Power, strong.) You see that! The word God means powers so anything or anyone could be God, like the Pharaoh, fallen angels and etc were called Gods because they were powerful and or great in strength. Greek word for God G2316 θεός theos theh-os Of uncertain affinity; a deity, especially (with G3588) the supreme Divinity; figuratively a magistrate; by Hebraism very: - X exceeding, God, god [-ly, -ward]. It says, (a deity, especially the supreme divinity; figuratively a magistrate, God, god) godly or godward). Now Christ is the Word because he would do everything exactly they way the father would have done. Just as on earth a son look up to his father and try to do the will of his father by following in his foot steps. Christ was Godly-Godward as it says in the Greek Lets get the definition of the word deity 1. a god or goddess 2. (Theology) the state of being divine; godhead 3. (Theology) the rank, status, or position of a god 4. (Theology) the nature or character of God Christ is powerful and has a rank or status of God and his nature is of his father the Most High The word Magistrate is in there as well. Lets define the word Magistrate. Magistrate-A civil officer with power to administer and enforce law, as: a. A local member of the judiciary having limited jurisdiction, especially in criminal cases. b. A minor official, such as a justice of the peace, having administrative and limited judicial authority. So the word God means Power and or authority Now the word Most High is mentioned in the bible a few times(Gen 14:18, Dan 7:25). Christ was never called the Most High but only the father The word Most High in the hebrew H5945 עליון ‛elyôn el-yone From H5927; an elevation, that is, (adjectively) lofty (comparatively); as title, the Supreme: - (Most, on) high (-er, -est), upper (-most). You see that? The Most High title is supreme, higher or uppermost because scriptures says there are many Gods(1Cor 8:5) but the Most High is above all. Christ was never given the name The Most High or the Father Theres a difference between GOD and the MOST HIGH
