Uhmmm.... you're wrong. This is what we call a Granville Sharp's construction.
There are THREE GS constructions in the NT - two of them are identical and call Christ God - Titus 2:13 and 2 Peter 1:1. Both 'God' and 'Savior' refer to Jesus Christ in both passages.
The third is Eph. 4:11 - pastor and teacher (same office) which is one of my favorite arguments against charismatic folk who said 'God told them' to start up a 5-fold ministry.....
Anyway, long story short, you're wrong.
