I really am interested in your answer.

I am yet to find any Christian that believes that every bit of what God consists of is housed in the body of Jesus per the verse.
Did you know the Bible is the written Word of God?

2 Tim 3 All Scripture is God breathed!

John 1 The Word was God. The Word became flesh ...

Isaiah 48
12 "Listen to Me, O Jacob, And Israel, My called: I am He, I am the First, I am also the Last. 13 Indeed My hand has laid the foundation of the earth, And My right hand has stretched out the heavens; When I call to them, They stand up together.
kcnalp, on point. in that one verse is so much information. oh if many would could just understand the "First", and the "Last" is the same one person. all theses misconceptions could be eliminated. God, JESUS said MY HAND laid the foundation of the earth. HOLD it, is not God a "Spirit", so what do he means "my HAND?" ... (smile). lets check the record, Isaiah 63:12 "That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?". God "ARM?" or this, Exodus 15:8 "And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea."

so God have hands, and a nose?...... (smile). anthropomorphic? yes, and those human characteristics MANIFESTED in the flesh as a man, the Son the Last Adam, or the ordinal Last, the "POWER and WISDON which is GOD.

kcnalp, you have the RIGHT scripture, GOD "POWER", himself is demonstrated in these human characteristics. MY ARM is ME as in Revelation 3:12 THIS IS THE LORD JESUS SPEAKING, "Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name." who name did he write? HIS "OWN" NAME.

the scriptures are great, self answering, and self revelating.

The Bible became flesh?

I thought the word of God made Jesus(flesh)....Matt 1..."thou shalt bring forth a son".

Not, the word of God turned into flesh.

Is this too simple for you? "The Word was God" "The Word became flesh"
Jesus is God.

Jesus is God.
It says the word of God was with God and was God.

It does not say Jesus was with God and was God.

How can a singular God be WITH a singular God and be a singular GOD?

Also, the KJV says the word was MADE flesh.

Not Divine Spirit was made flesh.

3 chapters later per John 4:24, Jesus did not say God was made flesh, but was a Spirit.

What? Is there anything in the Christian Bible you believe? Honestly, anything? Do you have to challenge every verse of the Bible?
No, I challenge the status quo belief system with the Bible.

It is amazing how the enemy can take a simple truth and change it into a lie and create a whole doctrine based on it,

You are right.

And to continue to perpetuate the lie, the commentary gets deeper and deeper.

People then become disciples of theologians and commentary and not the Bible only.

Sure it does, just like many Biblical passages that declare Jesus to be God of the Bible.

John 1 The Word was God. The Word became flesh ...
Yep His word became flesh, God didnt , what is so difficult to understand

The son gives life this way...


10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

You don't agree with the verse in John 14:10?

Did Jesus say the Father inside him does His work THROUGH him?

You should read your own posts.
I do.

I am simply saying that NOBODY gives the Father the credit for Jesus' earthly works.

Jesus did, but nobody else.

Folks skip the Father.

Is that not what you are doing??
No, I believe Jesus is God just as the Bible insists!

Isaiah 9:6-7
6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace
