Out of all of the words in the bible, why do people have to make up words and bring them into their doctrines. Jesus IS the image of God, yes, but that doesnt make him God. Scripture tells us that he is the "son of God", why cant we just use that? Why bring in words like "incarnate" and "God the son", etc, etc.
Doesnt scripture also tell us that Jesus came in his father's name? Jesus says his father is greater than he. I mean, we can go on like this all day..... Jesus is not God, he is the son of God. Jesus also has a father and a God....
Nothing is made up. Jesus His Pre-Eminence is GOD. And HE revealed it many times. One such time was when HE was telling the people what Moses told them was not accurate, and HE revea what HE told Moses but Moses wasn't able to bring out that height of Revelation. If GOD gives birth to a son, HE doesn't need the womb of a woman to do so. HIS son, Adam needed no womb to be born. It is written in Luke 3:38, that Adam is the Son of GOD, why do you deny it? HE also revealed HE is GOD when HE fed the multitude with 5 loaves of bread and two fishes, showing that HE is the GOD that fed their fathers in the wilderness. HE also revealed it,when HE said: I proceeded from the father, I go back to the father. HE also revealed it, when HE told Apostle Peter, to go and cast a hook, and the first fish he catches, take the coin out of its mouth, which was the sign of Jonah HE gave to them. And lastly, HE told Philip, he that has seen me, has seen the father.
But now to refute that HE called HIMSELF the Son of GOD.
1. When Apostle Peter said: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living GOD, and HE said that it was by revelation that he knew this. And that he should see that they tell no man this. HE didn't say HE is the Son of GOD, HE told them not to tell anyone that. The one that revealed to them that HE is the Son of GOD is John the Baptist, who they followed before Jesus His Pre-Eminence ministry began.
Compare this to Matt 24: For Many shall come in my name saying: I am Christ,and shall deceive many.
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed
it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
Why did HE tell them that? Because he is not HIS own son, HE is GOD. And because of this, the church, the builders rejected the Son of GOD, Adam His Eminence. And they called Jesus His Pre-Eminence the Son of GOD which is not true idenity.
And another place, in Matt 4:
3The tempter came to Him and said, “If You are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
4But Jesus answered, “It is written:
‘Man shall not live on bread alone,
but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.
HE didn't change the stone into bread because HE isn't the Son of GOD.
Then on the cross.
If thou be the Son of GOD, save us and yourself... Which again HE didn't do.
The way that HE came into the earth, through the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary, that birth lied about HIS true Idenity. The reason HIS ministry didn't start until a certain time, is because HE waited till he was at the age, and look of Adam in the fall. That is why lucifer, who has seen Adam before the fall, and then in the fall, recognised him as the man who called himself the Son of GOD.
Adam, His Eminence, is the Son of GOD. Jesus His Pre-Eminence, is The GOD and Father of Adam.
