There are three approaches to the issue.

1. Jesus is the true 'Son of God'. If so, the matter of how difficult the win is rests upon whether one adopts a homoousian or a homoiousian (ie is he the same substance as the father, or similar but not the same substance) approach to the being of Jesus. Either way, God wins though.

2. Jesus is real but God is non-existent. If so, does Jesus win by having no opponent, or must he fight (the potenttially much tougher and problematical) belief in God, rather than God himself? If the latter, God will win.

3. Jesus and God are both real, but Jesus is not the 'son of God' in any divine way. If so, then God must inevitably be the winner.

Also, bear in mind Jesus mistaken belief that one should always turn the other cheek. How could an opponent win when he voluntarily disables himself.

Jesus for the moral victory, God for the physical one, and to continue 'running' the universe.
