I see what you are trying to say
I see why you are seeing it that way
Jesus was sent in Gods name
When for example Moses stood be4 the burning bush, and saw God, it was Gods son he was speaking too
Gods son, had the right to use the names of his father YHWH
The angel leading Isreal though the desert was Gods son
Refered too as an angel, the angel of the lord, not because he was an actual angel, but because he identified with the angels, arc angel can mean leader of the angels, messenger, gods chosen vessel his actual son before his appearance in human flesh.
For exsmple Gods son also identified with us also as fallen beings with the nsme the son of man,
Philippians 2:6-11
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross
Gods son in the Ot used the name God
Because he wasnt actually God himself
But Gods representative
Trinitarians mistakenly use these instances as though they are supporting that view
But it is not
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. Heb 1.4
Because he was Gods actual literal son
A divine being in his own right
He inherited all the atributes of God his father
He had the right to use the names of God as though it were God himself,this is the confusion of trinitarians.trinitarianism denies that God has an actual literal son sent to earth from heaven
For as the father has life in himself
So has he given the son to have life in himself john 5.26
This is why the son was the only one who could represent God,because he is divine in nature,if you have seen the son,you have seen the father,as the son os the express image of his person Heb 1.3
The son could die,the father could not have died,because he is the fountain or source of all life,unborrowed and original,impossible to die.He is the supreme diety being,YHWH
