Mark 12.29Ex 20:3-5
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lordthy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
Only God may be worshipped!
Matthew 2:11

Does it...? Says who? That is an assumption. Show me the scripture that directly says Jesus is Yahweh.
Another assumption but no clear scripture....If no one is "good" but God alone, then Jesus was dismissing what was said to him when he was addressed as "good teacher".
In context it isn't saying what you want it to....
"As He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone."
If he was God, then he would be "good" in the superlative sense, so he would be saying 'yes, I am good'....but he said "why do you call ME good" meaning that he was not God....do you have a comprehension problem? You are reading into scripture what you want to believe.
Well actually the Jews were not saying that he was claiming to be "YHWH".....he was simply claiming divinity as the "son of God".
Read John 10:31-36 in the Greek Interlinear...
"The ho Jews Ioudaios again palin brought bastazō stones lithos to hina stone lithazō him autos. 32 Jesus Iēsous said apokrinomai to them autos, · ho “ I have shown deiknymi you hymeis many polys noble kalos works ergon from ek the ho Father patēr; for dia which poios one ergon of them autos do you intend to stone lithazō me egō?” 33 The ho Jews Ioudaios answered apokrinomai him autos, “It is not ou for peri a noble kalos work ergon that we intend to stone lithazō you sy but alla for peri blasphemy blasphēmia; · kai it is because hoti you sy, a mere man anthrōpos, are making poieō yourself seautou God theos.”
Jesus was not making himself out to be God ("ho theos") at all in that verse. He had shown them many things "from the Father", not from himself. He did not receive the holy spirit until his baptism when he was given the power to perform miracles. Before then he was just Jesus, the Carpenter Joseph's oldest son.
What he said to the Jews was...
"do legō you hymeis say legō regarding the one whom hos the ho Father patēr consecrated hagiazō and kai sent apostellō into eis the ho world kosmos, ‘ You are blaspheming blasphēmeō,’ because hoti I said legō, ‘ I am eimi the Son hyios of ho God theos’?
The translations that fail to identify "ho theos" as YHWH are failed translations. Look up John 1:1 in the Greek Interlinear and see exactly the same problem....The Word was "with HO THEOS" but he was not "Ho Theos" he was just "theos"...."a god"....a divinely authorized servant of the Most High. (Acts 4:27)
Twisted....
John 5:18...
"This was why dia the ho Jews Ioudaios were seeking zēteō all the more mallon to kill apokteinō him autos, because hoti he not ou only monon used to break lyō the ho Sabbath sabbaton, but alla he legō also kai was calling legō God theos his own idios Father patēr, · ho thus making poieō himself heautou equal isos with ho God theos."
The Jews said that he was 'making himself equal with God by claiming YHWH was his Father.
If claiming to be "the son of God" was blasphemy...then imagine what they would have done if he had claimed to be "God incarnate"! 
Your case is extra-ordinarily weak in light of 17:3 and 20:17, where Jesus said he has a God who is the only true God.John 1:1. John 1:14 I rest my case
Trinitarians do not want to recognize the most important commandment does not say God is 3-in-one.Mark 12.29
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is , Hear O Israel; The Lord “OUR” God is “ONE” Lord . Quotes are for you to take special notice what Jesus said .
God walked with Enoch, so Enoch must be God too according to your logic, but you are in error . Jesus is the Son of God .Jesus the Son of God makes Jesus equal to God thus Jesus is YHWH God.
The Apostle John declared "For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God" (John 5:18). John's declaration is composed of four clauses.
- CLAUSE A: "For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him"
- John declares a "reason" for the Jews desire to kill Jesus.
- John does not plainly indicate whether the "reason" is valid or invalid.
- CLAUSE B: "because He not only was breaking the Sabbath"
- the Jews thought Jesus broke the Sabbath.
- John knows better than the Jews because John knows that Jesus declares "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath" (Matthew 12:8).
- CLAUSE C: "but also was calling God His own Father"
- Jesus openly declared that Jesus is the Son of God (John 10:36).
- the Jews heard, and they disbelieved that Jesus is the Son of God, so they wanted to kill Jesus.
- John heard, and he believed that Jesus is the Son of God, so John followed Jesus.
- CLAUSE D: "making Himself equal with God"
- John declares a statement of fact, here in Clause D.
- John does not write "the Jews wrongly thought that Jesus was making Himself equal with God".
- John proclaims the Godly conclusion to Jesus proclaiming "I am the Son of God" (John 10:36) is Lord Jesus making Himself equal with God.
- Jesus being equal with God is the same as Jesus being God because there is One True God (Deuteronomy 6:4).
- Jesus being YHWH God is Apostolic testimony as recorded in John 5:18.
The Truth (John 14:6) is that Jesus is God for the ever living Word of God proclaims this Truth "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I AM" (John 8:58) and the Word of God says "I will settle him in My house and in My kingdom forever, and his throne shall be established forever" (1 Chronicles 17:14), so according to the Word, Lord Jesus existed in eternity past and will exist in eternity future which means the Word is uncreated thus the Word proclaims that the Word is YHWH God for there is NO other that exists in eternity past and future (Isaiah 45:5).
Jesus is God with us per the Apostle (Matthew 1:23), so Jesus is truly Almighty God, YHWH, with us (Revelation 1:8)!
Hosea 11.9Trinitarians do not want to recognize the most important commandment does not say God is 3-in-one.
Read John 17:5 along with thatYour case is extra-ordinarily weak in light of 17:3 and 20:17, where Jesus said he has a God who is the only true God.
Mark 12.29
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is , Hear O Israel; The Lord “OUR” God is “ONE” Lord . Quotes are for you to take special notice what Jesus said .
Hosea 11.9
For I AM God , and not a man : the Holy One in the midst of thee…
Another anti trinarian verse
All things come from God the father of ALL . God is spirit and those that worship him must do so in Spirit and truth . I rest my case . Jesus is the Son of God come as Christ in the flesh .

Trinitarians do not want to recognize the most important commandment does not say God is 3-in-one.
There are many lords , but only One Lord God as Jesus said . Many people have a land lord. But that does not make them even though they may choose to worship them , people worship what they choose , that does not make it right . But I per personally think it’s Good to worship Jesus because he is worthy, and The Lord God has made Jesus and given him all things . Amen !then Jesus is not Lord?
One divine Lord! Deut 6:4There are many lords , but only One Lord God as Jesus said . Many people have a land lord. But that does not make them even though they may choose to worship them , people worship what they choose , that does not make it right . But I per personally think it’s Good to worship Jesus because he is worthy, and The Lord God has made Jesus and given him all things . Amen !
I wasn't asking for someone else's opinion but I was asking you,Justbodg wrote in part...
"I have heard of this 100% man and 100% God before. I don’t know where it originated, but it sounds like Jesus is the only 200% person. You cannot have 100% 2x if Jesus is 100% man. Because then he would have to be 0% God. And if he's 100% God. Then he would have to be 0% man."
The orthodox doctrine of the Trinity is that the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and the three of them are co-equal, co-eternal, and share the same essence and together those three individual “Persons” are one triune God. The doctrine of the Trinity that Jesus is both 100% God and 100% man and that both the divine nature and his human nature live together in his flesh body is widely believed. Trinitarians who hold to the “classic” definition of the Trinity say Jesus was 100% God and 100% man while on the earth believe differently from Kenotic Trinitarians who believe Jesus set aside his godhood while he was a man on the earth. My question is this: has there ever been any other concept in the history of mankind that was able to use the math and science that God created to ever speak about anything being 100% and also 100% of something else?
