It is a difficult thing for some to understand because they attempt to use human reasoning, how can Jesus be both the son of God and still be the one and only God at the same time. All things are possible with God, many of these things are beyond the understanding of human reasoning.
Yeah.. There are things that our limited mind can never understand. Even when Mary conceived Jesus by the Holy Spirit, the angels in the heavens don't know how to describe it and they called it 'the thing'. Ha ha...
As much as different bible scholars has different views, most of the church today will still believe that Jesus is God, together with Father God and Holy Spirit.
This is an extract of the nicene creed. It was written in the early church years, ard AD 300++. After much intensive debates and disscussion by the council at that time, they finally decided on this:
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
