"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."
16 "Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

This is purely academic cause you're convinced:
If Jesus - the word- was WITH G-d in the beginning, then that's two separate things. One with the other. If Jesus was GIVEN authority then something else besides himself had to give it to him.
If Jesus WAS G-d then how did he suffer? How did he call out to G-d?
You know how they say the Bible defies logic? Nice way of saying it doesn't make sense.
