In the Gospel of Mark, is there any claim made by Jesus, or on behalf of Jesus that he is God? If so, where, and how explicit is the claim?
And if not, what does it say about the doctrine of the Trinity that the earliest Gospel contains no definitive declaration that "Jesus is God"?

Post #1 My theological positions:
-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.
I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

There is no definitive declaration in any of the Gospels that 'Jesus is God.' This is based on the most likely translations of any 'trinity proofs' found therein.
