We become an expert when we apply the Scriptures and it produces the desired results. Then with signs miracles and wonders in front of us is when we can get out of the cheap talk because we are applying biblical principles and getting spiritual results. Paul put it this way...
We including Paul are all men and not perfect gods. The term Jesus does not apply to his resurrected body. But could we use the word Jesus when referring to him. Sure and millions do everyday including Paul. My point was if we want to learn about the resurrected one we need to study the Christ and not from the Gospels. That was my only point when I wrote to someone else what you are commenting about.
Can we keep the stuff in context? I'm not commending myself. I'm responding to a person who wrote me saying I don't know the Scriptures if I can't see that Jesus is God. I was responding to his remark and nobody else.
Whomever your comment was responding to, it is the nature of public fora that patting yourself on the back reveals an unsavory armpit of arrogance to everyone who may be watching. I happened to be among them this time. Sorry to call you out on it. I apologize. For all I know you are a very humble guy, and this incident was an aberration.
And nobody's arguing the point about the word. "Lord."
Methinks you've missed @Peterlag's point about Acts 2:36 -- which was that there would have been no need for God to make him Lord and Christ if he was already God. You would have far better luck here with Phil. 2:6-11.
Jesus never taught the Trinity even when he had good opportunities to do so, and we see this when Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:1-42) and told her he was the Messiah, but nothing more. Jesus did not take the opportunity to teach the Trinity when he asked the Apostles who they thought he was, and Peter said that Jesus was the Christ (Matthew 16:17-20). Also he said he was the Messiah, but did not say a word about the Trinity when he healed the man who had been born blind (John 9:35-38). Trinitarians also commonly say that Jesus claimed to be God, and for that reason the Jews hated him and tried to kill him, but that is not the case because Jesus had been stating in various ways that he was the Messiah, and that is what the Jews were upset about. The Jews all throughout their history made a clear distinction between “God” and the “Messiah” and they did not think the Messiah was going to be God or a “Person” in a triune God.
No - this is the very reason I brought up the roles of each Person in the Godhead.
Oh should I have written back saying yep you're right? I don't know anything. Only you.
I'm just telling the truth. You guys can call it bragging, boasting, thinking more highly of oneself and having a fat head. But I'm just stating the facts. I am an expert in biblical data concerning the resurrected Christ Jesus.
I apologized in Post #224. Your response was "Oh should I have written back saying yep you're right? I don't know anything. Only you."
WRONBG.
That's is how with every 'mortal', where after death a body remains and decays.
Apparently 'immortality', for He raised in the same body without change, and was on earth for 40 days visiting saints for reproof. Even though it is written, 'He is the firstborn from the dead.' (Colossians 1:18)
Jesus have the same human body like us, but without sin and non blemish until death. For His human body since birth, have been kept and remain 'immortal', and 'forever the same'.
That are for those who born of and after Adam, who transgress and are 'mortal'. Where death shall swallow them up and their body eventually decay.
