It's hard to get two trinitarians to agree on what is involved with the trinity. Some say Jesus is fully God, while others say he is God the Son, the second person of the trinity. Such confusion naturally occurs among trinitarians because they have chosen to follow the religious leaders of Jesus' day. Of them, Jesus said: "Their worship is a farce, for they teach man-made ideas as commands from God." (Matt. 15:9)
Rather than teach that God is a trinity, Jesus said that his Father--a single person--is the "only true God." (John 17:3)
BTW, Jesus is no longer human. As 1 Cor. 15:45 says: "The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.”But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit."
There is only one God, and they are community. Elohim is a singular plural word -- there's a reason for this. God is three persons, but these three are not individuals. They are one in everything; they are one inextricable community; they are God. And Jesus is fully God/fully human. You should know Trinitarians don't view Jesus as a "demi-god." You're just trying to irritate people.
No. Jesus when he was alive was 100% God and 100% man.
The Trinity, btw, is God in three persons. So to refute another answerer here, God is three separate persons making up one God. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.
Jesus was God in human form. Now He is Spirit. Demigod implies lower than God and He was God. He did so just so He could teach God's will of salvation, live, be tortured, crucified and die for our sins. That is love.
Nope. Jesus is God who agreed to be born in the flesh to offer Himself as a sinless,blameless sacrifice for all repented past, present and future sins.

Sure, why not.
