If you want Jesus to be God then he is God to you and that doesn't mean he is God to everybody else if they don't want him to be. Okay?

The Bible teaches that Jesus is God. Okay?
If you want to believe that then that is on you not everyone else. If they get from the Bible that he wasn't God then that is on them. It is a choice people make when they interpret the Bible. Okay?

because google isnt a person. If i say "why doesnt everyone believe what google presents as fact,?" is co-equal to your statement.

You might try the source rather than a book. The book will then make more sense. The book is not a map.

Well, see the thing is that it's easy to make a simple statement and attach a scripture to it seemingly projecting your personal beliefs which come from Plato instead of the Bible. A brief examination of each of the above demonstrates you to have done that instead of making any accurate statement about Jesus being a god. Just as Moses was appointed God by Jehovah and Jehovah called the judges of Israel gods.

That is your own personal belief and opinion, other people might believe otherwise. Okay?

Okay, but it's also irrelevant. Okay? I may personally believe that you are Elvis beaming his thoughts to us from some distant location in outer space. It means nothing. It certainly doesn't make it true.

Please cite the Biblical references that indicate that he wasn't God before he was crucified. Okay?
Jesus was God as human and after he was crusified he was God.
Jesus(God) humbled himself. During his time on earth he renounced all his divinity, he became like a human.
That's why he ate and drank like people and felt pains like people and thats why he prayed like people . God became literally human.
Johannes 1:1+14
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 And the Word became flesh(human) and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Philippians 2:5-8
Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Jesus,
who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,
but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.
And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
