Being ("ousia") is distinguished from nature ("hypostastis").

Jesus Christ uniquely manifested both the Divine Being ("ousia") and the Divine nature ("hypostasis"), as well as human nature ("hypostasis") by being born of woman in the fullness of time.

Who can argue against this?

Correct Trinitarian belief always leads to faithful and correct Christology.

It cannot be avoided.

Incorrect Trinitarian beliefs (or denials) always lead to heretical Christology . . . which destroys the biblical Gospel of God.

Sub stance.

Hebrews 11:1
[ By Faith We Understand ] Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

By faith Jesus made a stance.

"Substance" proves to be another English word that does not adequately describe Jesus Christ as the Son come in flesh.

Jesus Christ fulfilled all Covenant promises as a Saviour, who would crush the head of Satan, and provide eternal redemption for His people.

Such fulfillment was the evidence of His divine Being; not just His obedient works as a Man.

Oh, I didn't realize you were a unitarian, too.

Speaking of Christ... What do you see here?
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Phil. 2:6-8 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.​

I understand that you may have trouble reading, but what part of anything I just said resembled "Unitarian?"
