Now you got me looking at this... 1 John 4:1-2 ... Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God:... Do the Catholics believe Jesus Christ came in the flesh? Or do they...

So does that mean you cannot or will not give a verse that tells us why Jesus had to be God? Not that the Bible says he is God, but why he God had to come to the earth? Why? What was the reason for God to come?

No disrespect to your logic. But I'm a biblical guy and I only look for what is written. And Jesus who the Bible calls the son of God said even before he was made both Lord and Christ that he could forgive sins.

Yes they were both one in Christ.

Yes

The context is clear even starting back in chapter 3 that there are false Prophets who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Those are the wrong spirits. The right spirit will confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh.

You say "only God can forgive them (sins)." But there's not even one verse that says that. Do you not see what I'm looking for? Not what you think, but what does the Bible say.

Here's some data on 10:33 for you... Had the translators rendered the Greek text in verse 33 as they did in verse 34 and 35, then it would read, "...you, a man, claim to be a god." In the next two verses, John 10:34 and 35, the exact same word (theos, without the article) is translated as "god"...

John 10:30. Let's look at that... There is no reason to take this verse to mean that Christ was saying that he and the Father make up "one God." The phrase was a common one, and even today if someone used it, people would know exactly what they meant... he and his Father are very much alike...

I will bet you my car that if we dig into the Greek we will find the word "soul" is the same Greek word for "spirit."

I gave 2 verses that say why Jesus had to be a man. Can you give 2 verses that say why Jesus had to be God?

Jesus was not yet born when God said in Psalm that He blots out transgressions. Number 2 nobody ever said Jesus (when he would be here) could not forgive sins. And number 3 Mark 2:7 says the unbelievers said Jesus could not do it. I don't see any proof anywhere in what you write that says only...

I have no idea what testing the spirit means. Is that to know if it's from God or the devil? What else is there to know?

You're killing me. Where's the verse? It's not in post 1826.

You do see that the 2 verses I provided said a man did it... right?

I believe the soul is nothing more then you being alive and breathing. Has nothing to do with the spirit of God.

What are we talking about? What verse is that for? Keep in mind I'm responding to hundreds of people on 5 different websites.

It is not necessary to know how to split the atom to be able to walk in the spirit.

Well, we might have an answer here. So you're saying the reason Jesus had to be God is because only God can forgive sins and Jesus had to be able to forgive sins on the Earth. Can you give me a chapter and verse on this Psalms? And just to keep me calm can you give just one verse where it says...

Think of it like a map that teaches you how to get someplace or a book that teaches you how to fix a car engine. Once you learned how to get there or fix it is when you no longer need the book.
