How can some claim that because Jesus is called Mighty God, and not Almighty God, He is a lesser God? Isn't Jehovah God called Mighty in Jer 32:18 & Isa 10:21? Is Jehovah God a lesser God b/c He's called Mighty in these verses? Sound like faulty logic 2U?

Just to start, Jehovah isn't even a real word. It is derived from an error that a German scholar made in his translation of the Hebrew text. The tetragrammaton is the Hebrew word transliterated as YHWH (meaning 'I Am that I Am'), or translated in English in all caps as LORD. Since this word is not supposed to be pronounced, the Hebrew scribes used the vowels from Elohim in place of those from YHWH so that if someone accidentally tried to say the word they wouldn't blaspheme God. Second, there is more than ample evidence to show that Jesus is eternally a part of the Trinity (John 1:1, John 8:58, John 14:11, and John 17:4-5 just for starters)

Well, genius, if you look in a dictionary you'll see there's a difference to Mighty and Almighty. And Jehovah is called a lot of things but he's the only one called Almighty. Jehovah is God, Jehovah is a God, Jehovah is Mighty, Jehovah is Almighty. You can say all those things about Him. You cannot say all the same for Jesus. Definitions: Mighty: having or showing great strength or force or intensity; "struck a mighty blow"; "the mighty logger Paul Bunyan"; "the pen is mightier than the sword"- Bulwer-Lytton Almighty: having unlimited power

I find it very funny how religion is supposed to be guidelines and morals for life, but all you people seem to derive is an argument of who's who. It doesn't even matter. Ignore the parts of the ancient text that don't make sense and let the good parts be more like examples of what might happen if you are a good person.
