I don't knowingly, or intentionally lie. You made a statement, with seemingly (to me) no evidence to support that statement. You then quoted some verses of Scripture which seemed unrelated and drifted off to trying to support the trinity.
This doesn't have anything to do with God dying.
You are preaching another Jesus that the Apostles did not preach, and are presumably claiming that Jesus was God and therefore God died. Nowhere does it claim that in the Bible.
That's totally irrelevant to your claim that God died for mankind's sins.
Yes, and God has never died. God annointed Jesus to redeem mankind and to be king over His kingdom. In the role as redeemer Jesus had to die, but Jesus is not God - he was sent by God and was obedient to God, and he is God's only begotten son. As Isaiah 43:11 says (WEB):
(11) I myself am Yahweh; and besides me there is no savior.
but God (YHVH) did not personally die in order to save mankind, he instead appointed His son, Jesus, to redeem and save mankind. As Paul wrote, Colossians 1:13-20 (WEB):
(13) {God} who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love;
(14) in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins;
(15) who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
(16) For by him all things were created, in the heavens and on the earth, things visible and things invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers; all things have been created through him, and for him.
(17) He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
(18) He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
(19) For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him;
(20) and through him {Jesus} to reconcile all things to himself {God}, by him, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.
Remember that John wrote, John 3:16 (WEB):
(16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him {Jesus} should not perish, but have eternal life.
He
did not write:
For God so loved the world, that he died himself, that whoever believes in him {God} should not perish, but have eternal life.
That is a misconception, but I would probably be judged to be breaking the anti Trinity discussion rule if I started to explain that!
Jesus claiming that he was the Messiah ,i.e. the one anointd by God to be the redeemer and saviour of mankind, does not mean that he was God, nor that God later died. Don't believe that absurd claim that Jesus saying in Aramaic "I am he" means that he was claiming to be God! The very next verse has his accusers (the pharisees) asking, “Who are you?”, so they obviously didn't undertand Jesus to be making that claim. His reply was, John 8:25 (WEB):
(25) They said therefore to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
which was that he was the Son of God (e.g. John 9:35-37). That was what the chief priests used to condemn Jesus to death, John 19:7 (WEB):
(7) The Jews answered him {Pilate}, “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”
I'm sure that if for a moment they thought that Jesus was claiming to be God Himself, that they would have used that accusation instead, or possibly even just stoned Jesus themselves!
John also wrote, John 20:31 (WEB):
(31) but these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.
And Paul, upon his conversion, Acts 9:20 (WEB):
(20) Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed the Christ, that he is the Son of God.
There's no doubt about it, Jesus claimed to be the Son of God, and the Bible declares him to be the Son of God, and nowhere in the Bible does it say that God died (or was killed)!
That is very wrong! You have a strange idea of "no uncertain terms"! Jesus referred to God as his Father and as his God (John 20:17), so I'd say it is vey uncertain that Jesus "ties himself to" God (by which I presume you mean that he was claiming to be God).
Why isn't he? Genesis 22:8 (WEB):
(8) Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they both went together.
Was the lamb that God provided Abraham God Himself in the disguise/form of a lamb, or was it a lamb? It was a type foretelling how God would provide a lamb for sacrifice, a sacrifce to redeem mankind, and that sacrifice would be His only begotten Son, just as Isaac, who Abraham was willing to sacrifice, was Abraham's only begotten son.
I strongly disagree!
