He was fully human but He was also fully divine.
If you are saying that Jesus was only human and not also divine, you are making a heretical assertion.

What I mean is that he seems to be flip-flopping on specific issues. There is no need for you to assume that I'm attacking him, and attack me in the process.
No. I was not saying that. Many people say that Jesus was only human. But I believe that He is also the Son of God.
All I am saying is what is written.
John 20:28
28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord (Kurios] and my God
(Theos]. KJV The use of both the word "Lord," and "God" And in the Greek manuscripts both words ("Lord" and "God") have the definite article.

It simply means Jesus is God
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace
No. You posted a verse and a bunch of text that I saw no relation to. I don't know how to respond when things are so unclear.
What post are you referring too? Better yet what # perhaps I can elaborate.
When Thomas was speaking to Jesus, he called Jesus God.
One of the reasons we know Thomas meant God the almighty, is the word "God" is Theós (God, the One Lord God).
What is confusing?
Your language is not in order, but your conclusion is either correct or not.
Forgive me… But I never knew language had an order. And how would one go about correcting this?
I don't have the same way of looking at things, but you may be correct. I just don't know.
I believe that either Jesus is a Mighty God or Jesus has the name that declares God to be Mighty God. For example, Jesus is not Everlasting Father. This may be another difficult one. The Hebrew reveals something entirely different when you are reading from a Jewish text, but I don't know Hebrew well enough to tell you what it is.
Yes. Although by saying the Old Testament you may be referring to the TaNaKh, which is not a covenant at all.
Because the Hebrew does not match the Christian texts. I do not have the same book with me any longer.
all throughout the Tanakh, that included specifically the Prophets, the term, ""Son of Man," which is God as a Man, is a prophecy in the Old Testament.
and Jesus said it 80 times to say this is ME, I Am the Son of Man.
that Alone, is Jesus, saying He is their Prophesy of God Coming to them.
Here is JESUS, the Gospel of Mark, calling Himself, Son of Man, and prophesying of His Own Death and Crucifixion.
45 For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
