    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Debate is predicated on both sides of an issue being set. I’m not interested in debating. As I’ve said elsewhere, I consider debating to be a lose-lose proposition for the debaters.

    Genesis : Trinity

    If that were true then you would have no other God than the one whom Jesus has - the Father alone. You’ve placed yours against his, and his is mine. You reject things of which you have no knowledge or understanding, and you’ve helpfully stated the reason why you do -

    Genesis : Trinity

    The “classic” trinitarians are correct in identifying the religion of Jesus as Judaism. It’s simply a historical fact.

    The Flesh Body is NOT "Glorified."

    Me: Read widely. Read deeply. Read thoughtfully. Read critically. You: Nah. I’ve read some of your writings. I wouldn’t have known what you believed and why you believe it if I had taken your approach. I wouldn’t have known if I agreed with you, and to what extent, or disagreed with you, and...

    Genesis : Trinity

    Trinitarian ministries make use of the historical fact in their efforts to convert Jews. Jews For Jesus is the biggest group that I’ve run personally across that puts it to this use: “So, what is the religion of Jesus? The simple answer is: Judaism.” (Stephanie Hamman, “What Religion Was...

    The Flesh Body is NOT "Glorified."

    The link is to Tertullian’s work titled “On the Resurrection of the Flesh”, not to an article. You rejected his arguments without taking the time to read them. I agree with much of what he wrote on the subject, but not all of it. I came to that conclusion after reading his arguments, not before...

    Genesis : Trinity

    Your opinion contradicts the Messiah’s own belief and practice. That’s the fact that’s not going to go away. I’ve recommended it before, but I’ll recommend it again: see the Geneva Bible on John’s prologue in his Gospel. The incarnation of the Father’s logos, as the Geneva Bible has it...

    Genesis : Trinity

    Yes, I know. I may be mistaken, confusing you with someone else, but weren’t you the one who told me that Jesus had no religion? Nice.

    Genesis : Trinity

    In that case, I’ll amend my comment. I know that you’ve missed the mark badly. Your teaching presents a rival deity - which is nothing more than an idol - to the Messiah’s God. Blessed be the God and Father of the Messiah. There is no other God.

    Genesis : Trinity

    “As you sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. John 7:18 NASB Sent - The Jewish law of agency, known as shaliah, is crucial for understanding the idea of an apostle. In fact, the verb itself, apostello, used here to speak of the mission of Yeshua and the mission of his...

    Genesis : Trinity

    Thanks. I think you’ve missed the mark badly, stemming from your position on Jewish monotheism, the rejection of which is the source of the errors contained in your teaching. I think we’ve reached the end of the line. To put it in your words, “enough already”.

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    “These are the circumstances which I had to communicate respecting the formulary of the faith. To it we all agreed, not thoughtlessly, but after mature reflection; and after having subjected it to thorough examination, in the presence of our most beloved emperor, we all, for the above reasons...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    The spirit of Protestantism!

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    The Messiah’s God doesn’t have a God.

    Did Christians invent the Trinity-2

    I’m really a Jewish monotheist who believes only in the one God, the Father. The Messiah is also really a Jewish monotheist who believes only in the one God, the Father. P.S. You know that a person whose God is only one person is, by definition, a unitarian. You recognize and acknowledge...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    JAT. Bless his heart.

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Jesus himself is always the best response to the trinitarian, binitarian and - in some cases, unitarian - arguments. There is no God besides his God. Everything else is idols.

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    He’s right that Jesus never said he was God. Jesus was even very guarded about openly saying that he was the Messiah, the Son of God.
