Well, 1500 years old is actually quite young! That is much younger than the entire New Testament! Biblical text itself wants to give us impression it is about twice as old while most scholars would date the current version to the end of Persian period and the beginning of Hellenistic period - circa 300 BCE.

Doesn't that book say he is the SON of God? Jesus called himself the SON of God. Are you calling Jesus a liar? Doesn't he say in that same book that his father SENT him? Doesn't he say in that same book that he always OBEYS his father? Doesn't he pray to and BEG his father in that same book? You're not making sense and are actually CONTRADICTING Jesus himself.
