[[the Son has always been fully God]]


====== Talk ======
It seems there's two lines of reasoning here: those that disagree with the Son being fully God and those disagreeing that the Son has always been that way. Perhaps all the reasoning that affirm "x Jesus is God" should be moved under that statement, and then "x Jesus is God" could become a line of reasoning here.
