Matthew 2:11
And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
What does God do when you worship an idol? He curses you, or even strikes you dead. He would not tolerate idolatry in the presence of the Messiah! Obviously. That means that the infant Jesus or His Father should have struck the Magi dead! But He does not. Same with when Saint Thomas touches His wounds, and confesses Him as God. He was worshiped even as a child–the Magi understood the prophecy of Balaam, and that it was the Prince of Peace, the Messiah. As was pointed out, Jesus ascribed to Himself the name of (Tetragram) Yahweh, He says "I AM" in multiple Gospels. Yes, even Mark. That obviously means that He claims to be co-equal with God.
Let's take something we all heard at Christmas, and break it down.
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a Child is born (of a virgin), Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful (Judges 13 sheds light on this, it's the Angel of Yahweh, Christ in the OT - Numbers 22 clearly shows that the Angel of the LORD is Jesus, notice Balaam's language concerning Him), Counselor, Mighty God(!), Everlasting(!) Father, Prince of Peace.
As a bonus, read Saint John Chrysostom's commentary on Matthew 2:11
"They rejoiced, because their hopes were not falsified but confirmed, and because the toil of so great travel had not been undertaken in vain. By the mystery of this star they understood that the dignity of the King then born exceeded the measure of all worldly kings. “Mary His mother,” not crowned with a diadem or laying on a golden couch; but with barely one garment, not for ornament but for covering, and that such as the wife of a carpenter when abroad might have. Had they therefore come to seekan earthly king, they would have been more confounded than rejoiced, deeming their pains thrown away. But now they looked for a heavenly King; so that though they saw nought of regal state, that star’s witness sufficed them, and their eyes rejoiced to behold a despised Boy, the Spirit shewing Him to the ir hearts in all His wonderful power, they fell down and worshipped, seeing the man, they acknowledged the God. And though it were not then understood what these several gifts mystically signified, that is no difficulty; the same grace that instigated them to the deed, ordained the whole. Let Marcion and Paul of Samosata then blush, who will not see what the Magi saw, those progenitors of the Church adoring God in the flesh. That He was truly in the flesh, the swaddling clothes and the stall prove; yet that they worshipped Him not as mere man, but as God, the gifts prove which it was becoming to offer to a God. Let the Jews also be ashamed, seeing the Magi coming before them, and themselves not even earnest to tread in their path."
Hear, O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord.
Pay attention,
The Lord(1) our God(2) is one Lord(3).
Here is how Jewish texts interpret the Shema Yisrael:
(From the Zohar) "Hear, O Israel, Adonai Eloheinu Adonai is one. These three are one. How can the three Names be one? Only through the perception of faith; in the vision of the Holy Spirit, in the beholding of the hidden eye alone.…So it is with the mystery of the threefold Divine manifestations designated by Adonai Eloheinu Adonai—three modes which yet form one unity.”
