What is the religion of Jesus? Is it not Judaism?

Moses met the first criteria but didn’t meet the second criteria. Moses isn’t a trinitarian. Moses is a unitarian. What about Jesus? Does he have a God? If so, is his God the Trinity?

“The monotheism of the Jews was then, as it is still, unitarian.” (Leonard Hodgson, Christian Faith and Practice, p. 74) Dr. Hodgson, a trinitarian, wasn’t persuaded - and for good reason - that Moses is a trinitarian. Moses the trinitarian is a fiction. Moses the unitarian is an historical...

There is no God besides Jehovah. I’m in full agreement with your comment that “Jesus is not Jehovah, per se.” I was brought up with the teaching and belief that “Jesus is Jehovah”. I’m not in agreement with that, as you know.

That’s the description / definition of a demigod. “Demigod - a being with partial or lesser divine status, such as a minor deity, the offspring of a god and a mortal, or a mortal raised to a divine rank …” (New Oxford American Dictionary)
