    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Nobody ever answered my question either. There must be some reason to have Jesus be God. The best answer I ever got was because the Bible says he is. But nobody can tell me why he came. Many tried by saying to redeem us but the Bible said a man had to do that. And not a god-man.

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    No that is the soul. Spirit is not the soul.

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Some data on the image... God made humans different from all the other creatures. In humans He put spirit in them. This is probably what it means to be made in His image. It does not mean God is a man and He made us like Him. He's spirit and He gave us spirit when he created humans. Eve did not...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Here's an example... Wise as serpents = shrewd (Matt. 10:16). That did not mean Jesus wanted his disciples to turn into snakes. The Bible is an eastern book written with the eastern biblical culture and customs. They like all cultures had figures of speech it their writings.

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    One of the greatest Bible scholars and famous theologian E.W. Bullinger, has a lot of data on phrases classifying them into three distinct divisions: figures involving omission, addition, and change. He further breaks down whether figures affect the words themselves, the sense, meaning, order...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Are you talking about Isaiah 9:6? I just posted that Jesus is not called the "Everlasting Father" anywhere else in Scripture. And that even Trinitarians deny that Jesus is the "Everlasting Father." The word translated "everlasting" is actually "age" and the correct translation is that Jesus will...

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    Okay so we agree on that. That it did not make Jesus God just because he had spirit.

    May I have the verse?

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    You do realize that Jesus is not called the "Everlasting Father" anywhere else in Scripture? And that even Trinitarians deny that Jesus is the "Everlasting Father." The word translated "everlasting" is actually "age" and the correct translation is that Jesus will be called "father of the coming...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Someone on here just told me figures of speech are not in the Bible. Yet we use them every minute in our culture. Why is it so hard to understand that they did thousands of years ago in other cultures?

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    Yeah but you guys on here have been telling me all day long that Jesus must be God because he had the spirit. What about John the Baptist? He had the spirit too. No Trinity for him?

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Is John the Baptist who was born with the spirit part of the Trinity... John the Baptist was born with the spirit from God right from his mother’s womb, and that is why Jesus Christ said, “Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist” (Luke 7:28).

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    Prophets are those who have God’s spirit, and therefore they are able to speak for God, because He makes Himself known to them. The world never looks upon prophets as being successful or popular among the public, and therefore they are never invited to compete with others to endeavor to become...

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    Must have been a bad question when I asked what does the Prophet do.

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    What do you want me to do with Ephesians 3... 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity...

    Is Jesus 100% man and 100% God

    Okay so you mentioned the Evangelist and the Pastor and how they work. So what does the Prophet do?

    What does the word faith mean

    However, when it comes to the faith of Jesus Christ, we must understand the relationship Jesus Christ has with God to have this faith. It's beyond just trusting God because of the acceptance of the new established covenant that demands obedience to God’s testimony. Faith is not a leap in the...
