      only jesus said there is a new covenant with him, which nearly all denominations interpret to mean the rite of circumcision is a thing of the past

      Didn’t Jesus deny being god though, the son of god and god are not the same entity, it’s like saying I’m my mother because I was born out of her, but two different entities

        In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

        The same was in the beginning with God.

        All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made."

        is generally interpreted to mean that Jesus was there from the beginning. Or, to quote the Nicene Creed,

        begotten and not made, consubstantial with the Father
