So then, to "worship in spirit and truth" is to acknowledge God in each and every living thing and to love and honor every living thing as God.

It seems to me that you've made an unjustified leap there. To me, "to acknowledge God in each and every living thing" is one thing and "to love and honor every living thing as God" (emphasis added) is quite another. The first is Christian, but the second is not, in my humble opinion.

God is the creator, but the creation is not God. God is in us, but we are not God.

I remain unconvinced that Metaphysical Christianity is not a contradiction in terms, as you seem to understand that term, although the dictionary definition of metaphysics may not carry a contradiction to Christianity.
