Jesus saying that it was Moses who wrote about Him in the Torah, and Moses appearing on Mt. Tabor is all a Christian really needs to believe.

>Because it is essentially a recapitulation of God giving the law to Moses on Sinai
Also the transfiguration is a very clear sing of this, with Moses himself being present at the mount with Jesus.

>superiority over the Father
You are putting words into my mouth.
If you knew anything about Christian belief, we do believe the Father is superior to Christ in some senses (that of being the One who gives Christ existence eternally) but that their divine power and will is still one and the same power and will. Christ says numerous times that He is One with the Father and that He possesses the Father's glory from all eternity. This is not a created glory He possesses. Because in Christ's humanity the glory only became fully apparent after His resurrection, and briefly in His transfiguration, where He claims it is HIS kingdom that is to come, not just His Father's.
I urge you to sit down and actually read the Gospel of John from cover to cover before quoting it.

>So now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had in your presence before the world existed.
John 17:5
>Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.”
Matthew 16:28

>outside of the original context
The original context shows Christ exhibiting divine actions and human actions, in one singular person who is the Word of God.

>his nature is still that of a human
Correct, so Christ has a created human body, created human soul and created human will. These are all proper to any human.
>for his soul in his case The Logos
The Logos is Who became human, it's not some kind of part of Christ's humanity. The Logos is 'who' Christ is, 'human' is what Christ is after the incarnation.
