    Proof that Jesus is God

    Yes, Jesus will be referred to as a "mighty god", for he has great power ("mighty") and wisdom ("wonderful counselor"), he is the Prince of Peace and he will establish peace on the Earth, and he is the father of eternity (literal translation, not "eternal father") - through Jesus we will have...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Indeed. Not only that but: Numbers 23:19 (WEB): God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent. ... and Malachi 3:6 (WEB): “For I, Yahweh, don’t change; ..." Jesus became a man, so he could not have been God, who never changes and is not a man. Jesus also...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    As I read the Cambridge Bible comment I understood it to mean that there was no word 'Lord' in the original Greek manuscript of Hebrews 1:10. It was not saying that there was no word 'Lord' in the LXX - that's the opposite of what it says - so the comment is not relying on the LXX manuscript...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Romans 10:9 (WEB): that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Note that Paul did NOT say, "confess with your mouth that Jesus is God". Paul also said, (1 Cor 8:6) "yet to us there is one God, the...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    FYI, the Cambridge Bible notes for Hebrews 1:10 says, "Thou, Lord, in the beginning] The quotation is from Psa 102:25-27. The word “Lord” is not in the original, but it is in the LXX.; and the Hebrew Christians who already believed that it was by Christ that “God made the world” (see note on...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Romans 10:9 (WEB): "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." According to Paul I will be saved.

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Yes, I know that. But I still think that it should be 'god' rather than 'God', in Psalm 45 too. The translators choose whether or not to capitalise a word, and the Hebrew word elohim is translated as "god" 244 times in the Bible and so could/should be here. The Psalm is addressed to "the...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    That's not how I read it (are you surprised? :)). Taking the WEB translation, which I think has better punctuation: [God, Yahweh, is speaking (or Jesus speaking, as Yahweh's spokesperson)] 15) I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I have brought him, and he shall make his way...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    That is how understand it too! From the Online Bible's Greek Lexicon: 1) single of its kind, only 1a) used of only sons or daughters (viewed in relation to their parents) 1b) used of Christ, denotes the only begotten son of God Strong's Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries says: only born, that...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    You've drifted into another language again! Jesus is God's only begotten son, so if he was begotten then that means at some point in time Jesus was not God's son, and that only God (Yahweh) existed. This tells us that in the beginning of God's creation of the world/environment that we live in...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    (Isa 48:16) “Come near to me and hear this: “From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time that it happened, I was there.” Now the Lord Yahweh has sent me, with his Spirit. Jesus is not Yahweh! You can't change the names in the Scriptures to force it to mean what you want to...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    There is one LORD - whose name is Yahweh/Jehovah. But what's your point? Jesus is not Yahweh/Yehovah/Jehovah. If, as you say, Jehovah came down to earth, how could he call down fire from Jehovah in heaven? Why do you figure that the fire coming down from heaven is the Holy Spirit? Remember...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    That explains why it (both aprioic and aprioric) is not in any of the English dictionaries I searched - it's not English, it's Latin! It's better to stick with English, or at least translate the Latin if you must use it!

    Proof that Jesus is God

    But the son of the giraffe is not the father of the giraffe. The son of a man is not his own father. Yep, he's the son of God, and not God. God is a title (meaning a mighty one), not a type of being, such as giraffe, centipede, angel, man, etc.. And they were in the wrong to kill somebody...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    1 Corinthians 15 (WEB): 24) Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power. 25) For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26) The last enemy that will be abolished is...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    You're just making assumptions. What does baptism (immersion) symbolise? Romans 6:3 says, "Or don’t you know that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?" God has not died, nor will He ever die. Jesus did die, and we follow in his footsteps, sacrifing our...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Eh? What? I have never come across the word "aprioic" before, and I can't find it in any English dictionary, so I have no idea of what you are trying to say. I have found that using simple, basic language is the best form of communication. Using words that the vast majority of people have...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    That's a mistranslation in the KJV: Philippians 2:6 - (KJV): Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: (WEB): who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, The KJV translation (Translated by Triitarians!) gives...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    Indeed. I have often wondered if Matthew 28:19 might be a spurious verse. I've not come across any proof of that, but it just seems suspicious to me that if Jesus told his disciples to baptise (immerse) into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, then why did the...

    Proof that Jesus is God

    No, you have not read John 10 carefully enough! John 10:32-38 (WEB): 32) Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me?” 33) The Jews answered him, “We don’t stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a...
