Yes there are a lot of people who are convinced they have it right and anyone who doesn't agree is wrong.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Read it again. I do believe God raised Jesus from the dead. I don't believe like the Unitarians though and they use this verse as a proof text.

I'm really enjoying the NET Bible Full Notes Edition and accessing it online when I'm on my PC.

Well 2 months later I am still having the same arguments and no matter what evidence I present there is someone telling me why it's wrong. But I see all the evidence for the deity of Christ and I'm just amazed that they can't see it. I have found common ground with some who believe differently...

It didn't hide it. It gave me examples of where the word worshipped was used. There's not a feature to search for the Hebrew or Greek that was translated as worshipped. I bowed to people when I was in martial arts but I didn't worship them

I'm only making the case for the deity of Christ. Where you go from there is your decision. It leads me to believe in the Trinity. It leads some to believe in Oneness. Some reject it altogether.

I think only those who haven't made up their minds can be persuaded.

The NT authors identify Jesus in the most persuasive way: They refer to Christ as theos or “God.” You might recognize the Greek word theos in our modern word theology, which is the “study of God.” Robert Bowman writes, “The singular theos is used of God about 1,400 times in the New Testament...

Do you understand why it is to those who believe Jesus is God?
