God gives His glory to ONE man: Jesus, God in flesh!

Anti-Trinitarian heretics love to ask cliche questions like "where does Jesus say the words 'I am God, worship me'?" Obviously, these specific words are not in the Bible. However, using this logic, we could even justify atheism. Tell me, where does the Bible say the words "God exists"? You won't find those exact words in the Bible. But what fool would conclude with "therefore, the Bible does not present the idea that God exists"? The exact words criteria, therefore, is obviously flawed. Christians are not required to show Jesus saying "I am God, worship me". Instead, there are many things Jesus did say that He could only correctly say if He was God.
One excellent example is in John 17:5, wherein Jesus says "And now, O Father, glorify me together with yourself, with the glory which I had with you before the world was". This saying, according to Isaiah 42:8, can only be worth anything if Jesus is God. If Jesus is not God, He could not have had any glory with the Father, either before the world was, or even after the world will be. God will not give His glory to any other. Man, beast, or idol, God's glory is not for sale. Therefore, the fact that Jesus not only shared glory with the Father, but felt confident in asking for it back, shows that He must be God. The only alternative is that He was a blasphemer, which would of course make Christianity 100% false. As C.S. Lewis once put it, Jesus is either a liar, a lunatic, or the Lord. Since He rose from the dead, my money is on Lord.
