    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    You differ with Jesus ... Rev. 3:12 The one who conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out from it anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem that descends out of heaven from my God...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I heard you the first time you said that. Did you hear Jesus? John 17:3 This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ. Rom. 10:9 For if you publicly declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and exercise faith in your heart...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Well, we all need to take a side: the truth or the lie. Consider this: the Most High God could not call anyone "God", as that would indicate that there is someone above him and then he would no longer be the Most High or Sovereign. Have you considered how many times Jesus speaks about his God...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    You dissagree with Jesus. That is your problem, not mine: John 20:17 Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’”

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Jesus called his Father: "you, the only true God". Binitarians or Trinitarians don't listen. Rev. 3:12 The one who conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out from it anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city of...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I hear you, but Jesus said something different: John 17:3 This means everlasting life, their coming to know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    There is truth and there is lie. I trust that God will take care of finding sincere people and bringing them to the truth. John 3:19 Now this is the basis for judgment: that the light has come into the world, but men have loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were wicked. 20...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Yes, it is a Mesianic Psalm, like Psal. 89. But it's not talking about GOD: Psal. 45:1 My heart is stirred by something good. I say: “My song is about a king.” May my tongue be the stylus of a skilled copyist. 2 You are the most handsome of the sons of men. Gracious speech flows from your lips...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Heb. 1:8 refers to Ps. 45:6,7, an ode to a human king. It is impossible for that psalm to call a human king "God," so it is evident that the translation of Heb. 1:8 which suggests that idea is an incorrect translation... you would have to translate the same thing in the Psalm where the reference...

    What is unbelievable about the Bible

    There's not any mistery on Jesus eating and drinking in a material/physical body when he was already a spirit. Angels did the same in ancient times, like the ones who came to see Abraham (Gen. 18). This is an interesting example: Judg. 6:11 Later Jehovah’s angel came and sat under the big tree...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    In the entire Bible I don't see any binitarian Jews. Paul, who was an educated Pharisee and later became a Christian, never stopped worshiping Jehovah. Rom. 1:9 For God, to whom I render sacred service with my spirit in connection with the good news about his Son, is my witness of how without...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    2 Thess. 2:9-12 says there is LIE and TRUTH. Lies, like ignorance, provide comfort and even pleasure. The truth requires effort and honesty. I don´t have any opinion ... it is what it is, as written.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Everyone reads the same (more or less) ... some people won't get it because of their attitude. PERIOD. 2 Thess. 2:9 But the lawless one’s presence is by the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and wonders 10 and every unrighteous deception for those who are perishing, as...

    Commanded to love God more than we love ourselves?

    I think that is poorly stated. The Septuagint was formed entirely by a specific group of translators who completed their work in a relatively long time. The different Greek translations that existed contemporaneously with that Jewish translation are not considered Septuagint just because they...

    Theistic Agnosticism - The honesty to admit we don't know everything

    We don't need to know everything to be happy while we worship our Creator. Look at it like this: If we knew everything we would be just like God. It seems like a totally ridiculous idea to me. IMHO for a previously unknown truth to become part of our knowledge, the ideal conditions have to be in...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Again, I understand your opinion, but your opinion won't save anyone. That is why I study the Scriptures to know what I need to do: Acts 15:19 Therefore, my decision is not to trouble those from the nations who are turning to God, 20 but to write them to abstain from things polluted by idols...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I hear you... but I am more interested on what Jesus taught, like this: John 4:23 Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for indeed, the Father is looking for ones like these to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I study what Jesus taught, so I don't need to be confused about what he clearly showed us. If John 17:3 says we need to know God and the one He sent, that I need to do. I can achieve this if I carefully study the things that Jesus said. For example: Rev. 3:12 “‘The one who conquers—I will make...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    This is the context of that miracle: John 5:19 Therefore, in response Jesus said to them: “Most truly I say to you, the Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son does also in like manner...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Healing was done in the name of Jesus (to forgive sins) with the power of the spirit of his Father ... so men glorify God, the Father. Acts 3:6 However, Peter said: “Silver and gold I do not possess, but what I do have is what I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazareneʹ, walk!” 7 With...
