Here are three passages that say Jesus is a being higher than men. These are not incompatible with Arianism, but they are incompatible with Jesus merely being a judge and redeemer.
Matthew 28:16-19 [+/-]Matthew 28:16-19
[16]Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the
mountain to which Jesus had directed them. [17]And when
they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. [18]And
Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and
on earth has been given to me. [19]Go therefore and make
disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, (ESV)
: Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Luke 24:51-52: And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven. And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:
John 1:1-3, 14 [+/-]John 1:1-3
[1:1]In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
with God, and the Word was God. [2]He was in the beginning
with God. [3]All things were made through him, and without
him was not any thing made that was made. (ESV)
. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; without him was not any thing made that was made…. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

I should add this passage from Philippians, to have a passe from Paul:
2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
