Jesus is God. God is Love. Love is Truth. Therefore, to me, Jesus is Truth. I lived in lies, deceit, and addiction my whole life, but Jesus became the mustard seed and planted Truth in me. I am filled with gratitude to Jesus of Nazareth: He who became human and suffered unimaginable pain by choice, despite His innocence, for a worthless man like me and every single soul. I cannot believe how lucky we all are. He commands and I pray He gives me the strength to obey every commandment. That is Jesus to me. Jesus saved my life. I am in love with Him.
Im assuming you've read the gospels, or at least a gospel. A friendly suggestion to you, he's certainly not God in the New Testament nor do they even hint at any sort of language indicating that he was God become a human being. Instead they proclaim him as the Messiah, as God's son, meaning the Jewish King (John 1:49) Remember Peters confession? Jesus asked "who do men say that I am?". If we were his Apostles, and he came today, we would say "Well some say you are God, or part of God in a Trinity, or an Angel, or a good teacher, etc" Then he would ask "but who do you say that I am". And i would think we are supposed to answer like Peter "You are the Christ (the Messiah), the son of the living God". And that on this answer we can rest and find joy from Jesus and God. (Matthew 16:16) Remember the ending of Johns gospel? John 20:31, where John writes why he wrote his gosoel and what he intends those who have read it to walk away believing. He writes "I wrote all this so that you may believe Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, and that believing [this] you may have life in his name". Sound familiar to Peters confession? You wrote who is Jesus to you? An excellent question, but our opinions dont matter. However, what has been written, Peters response (and Jesus blessing of that response), and Johns purpose statement, is the answer God has intended for us. This is a far cry from the answers the post biblical church councils have forced on us for 1500 years now, sometimes even at the threat of pain and death. Michael Calvin, had Servetys murdered, burned alive at the stake, for realizing the Trinity is not in the Bible and that Jesus is not God, but instead Gods son. So much history we have as christians, fighting, killing, deceiving, being deceived, splitting, pride, arrogance, arguing without truly seeking truth.... This isnt to get started on the gospel message....we are taught the gospel is the death burial and resurrection of Jesus. Billy Graham had once said "Jesus came to do three days work". However, see Matthew 16:21. Jesus hadn't even begun to teach or speak about his sacrificial death for over 15 chapters and yet he was still preaching *the gospel* for 15 entire chapters before hand! So then, what is this gospel that had nothing to do with his death and resurrection (yet?). It was the gospel of the Kingdom of God! Mark 1:14-15, Matthew 4:23. By the God who lives, I hope you simply just look into these matters, by reading scripture in prayer for truth willing to sacrifice any previously held belief for the sake of truth if need be. If you want good biblical resources, which of course doesnt absolve the responsibility you have to fact check whatever you hear, "Biblical Unitarians" are the go to. Amazingly knowledgeable and open Christians. ruclips.net/video/YQe7WBXpufI/видео.htmlsi=Rtv0ST17tXkgdtig

Jesus to me is as the Bible clearly says, the SON of God, and his God is the same as our God, that one being Yehovah!
