    Theosis vs Christlikeness

    Sorry David, you used the words "Perfect Humanity" and God is not Human so I jumped on this promptly. Human nature is not perfect; it is flawed. This is why God made a public display of Christ's death. If Almighty God, in His wisdom, had no other way to "fix" our nature, then the only solution...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    He couldn't because he wasn't

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    @everyone else... There is a much larger issue with Marks teaching which needs exposing: It never refers in Scripture that "God the Son", survived the death of the body. "He whom God raised up the third day, and showed him openly" (Acts 10:39-40). The "him" who was crucified is the same...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Jesus was unable to do anything for himself once dead because "the dead know not any thing." (Ecc. 9:5). He totally ceased to exist in every way! That was the whole point of his death - he died once to sin! God does NOT die to sin! F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Alright, let’s consider your teaching for a moment. What does the Bible tell us about his resurrection? "Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death..." (Acts 2:24). "This Jesus hath God raised up..." (Acts 2:32). See also Acts 3:15; 5:30; 10:39-40; and 1 Cor. 15:15. Now, if...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    You can't grasp the Lord's teaching, Marks, because your hyper-literal interpretation is blinding you to the truth. Jesus had the authority to take His life again because, as he himself said, "This commandment I have received from my Father" (John 10:18). Therefore, it is not Jesus doing...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    @Wrangler, notice how they miss the victory over sin's flesh? The Law of Sin and Death was abolished in Christ, yet Marks believes God existed in that body that was held under death's dominion! It's sheer blindness to overlook this foundational truth. F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    @marks Re your comment about the temple being destroyed and raised the third day... Did God provide His Son a commandment and if so what was it? F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    The term "Second Man" and you believe it teaches the doctrine of the incarnation. I understand, I truly do... if you fail to grasp how Christ became the Lord from Heaven through the power of His Father's resurrection, then what choice do you have but to believe these misconceptions? As the...

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    @Wrangler, it's astonishing how a false doctrine can lead a sincere believer like Marks to believe that a dead man can raise himself. Such is the power of self-deception. Jesus warned us that in the last days, many would be led astray.

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    So you agree you hold a teaching you neither fully understand nor can explain. You bow out gracefully Marks though never the wiser for it. Just sad F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Your reading of the Word is so one-dimensional, Marks...if only you could read with context in mind! What have you overlooked? F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Show me your teaching of God incarnate and I will show you that the Son of Man was raised out of a fallen line of men - which is why Paul calls Christ the second Adam. God is not the second Adam, Marks! The only nonsense is found in your unsupported claims which are adding up! F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    God cannot become sin's flesh, Marks, and you know it. That's why the concept of the God-man/hypostasis was created. You hold to a doctrine that you neither fully understand nor can explain. I truly regret that you've embraced it. F2F

    Did ANYONE In Scripture (Including Jesus), Claim Jesus IS God?

    Even the simple minded can see your twist..nothing complex about it at all! In the hope you will depart from your vanity and return to the original Gospel which has Power Again you show your lack of understanding by twisting the Word of God to favour your manmade teaching. Why do you do this...
