Jesus stated that he has a God and a father and it was the same G-d and father that everyone else had as their G-d and Father....

Actually, in the Scripture I quoted earlier (to which you didn't respond yet) Jesus plainly makes Himself equal to the Father. When Philip asked Jesus to show him the Father, what does He say? Go look Him up in the Old Testament? Does He say, okay give me time to pray and I will ask the Father to reveal Himself to you? No! Jesus says, don't you know Me by now?! Philip said to Him, John 14:8-9 "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." Jesus said to him, "Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, 'Show us the Father '?

Jesus Christ ís God the Son, distinct from the God the Father, yet one in essence with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. The trinity is a mystery to our minds, but still true.

Thomas did not worship Jesus as his God. Thomas was confused. He was at both ends of the spectrum when he should have been in the middle.

Saying Jesus is the only path to God is like saying there's only one way to have intercourse.

Seriously? "My Lord & my God..." Where do you get that from?

And as we all know, there's only two.

Maturity is the path to God, but many have not grown-up.
You'll get there someday, maturity is just a small part to salvation.

I heartened to see that almost every professing Christian here believes Jesus.
