People refer to Jesus as God
and the one who created Jesus as God.
It becomes confusing when nouns are used instead of names.
So which God were you talking about?

Happiness is the result of an enlightened mind whereas suffering is caused by a distorted mind.

I read in Jewish thought 'the name' goes beyond the literal letters of the name and takes on a mystical quality pointing to the meaning of the name. So if one person says Jesus, another Adonai or Yah-weh or Chokmah or Ruha Qadesh it's important but not everything which the name is. I mean two people can have the same name for God but they describe very differently the nature, that's the same thing you find in scripture too.

This is where you can find a lot of Padgett material:

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

As you can read, they both are described similarly.
"The One Who was, and is, and is to come.
Almighty God".

Jesus was God, you know the trinity?
I have not read this thread through, so forgive me for jumping in... however.
All Christians believe in the doctrine of the Trinity. If you do not believe this—that is, if you have come to a settled conclusion that the doctrine of the Trinity is not true—you are not a Christian at all.
You are in fact a heretic. Those words may sound harsh, but they represent the judgment of the Christian church across the centuries.
What is the Trinity? Christians in every land unite in proclaiming that our God eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Those who deny that truth place themselves outside the pale of Christian orthodoxy.
That's Christianity.

Yes many do think that way, he was foretold about in the old testament, and I think we will know on THE final day, or.. hour of our existence.. or we reincarnate..
Again and again...
I love Jesus.
I think he was God. Can't pray any other way.
But what I find so good, and amazing, is we are left to choose, and why?
It's all in your heart and in your head.
