How is it true "Jesus is God"?

[outhouse]

I do not agree with you.

Not many people it seems, you do agree with.

 

[outhouse]

Many are called few are chosen.

And those that are self proclaimed have credibility?

 

[sojourner]

There is NOTHING distinct about Jesus and God the Father and the Holy Spirit.

You mean, other than that Jesus was flesh and bone and God is Spirit?

 

[moorea944]

Instead of just making rude comments, how about answer the question. What do you have to say about this:

The Bible says Jesus is the Spirit. The Bible says everything was made through Jesus---everything was made through God.

Everything was made by God, but with Jesus in mind.

[The Bible says Jesus is the Spirit]
What do you mean by "the" Spirit....

 

[sojourner]

Jesus is God come as a Son of Man.

True. But Jesus is not the Father.

 

[sojourner]

God's Word rebukes you:


John 10:18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."


John 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."

God's Word rebukes you:

Hebrews 13:20a "The God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus Christ..."

 

[Yes]

Not many people it seems, you do agree with.

That is right.

 

[Yes]

And those that are self proclaimed have credibility?

Check the scriptures.

 

[Yes]

You mean, other than that Jesus was flesh and bone and God is Spirit?

Jesus came in the flesh. That is, God came in the flesh. Jesus was flesh and bone, and God is Spirit---And the Spirit of Jesus is the Spirit of God. That is what the scriptures say.

 

[Yes]

Everything was made by God, but with Jesus in mind.

That is not what the scriptures say.

[The Bible says Jesus is the Spirit]
What do you mean by "the" Spirit....

There is only One Spirit.

 

[Yes]

True. But Jesus is not the Father.

If Jesus is God, then he has to be the Father.

 

[outhouse]

Check the scriptures.

Cherry picked text out of context, does not have anything to do with self proclaimed credibility.

 

[Yes]

God's Word rebukes you:

Hebrews 13:20a "The God of peace, who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus Christ..."

God does not rebuke me.


God raised Jesus from the dead.


Acts 2:32 God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact.


Rom. 10:9, 1 Pet. 1:21



The Father raised him.


Gal. 1:1; Eph. 1:17,20



Jesus raised himself.


John 10:18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."


John 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."


Jesus and God are the same. That is why some scripture says God raised Jesus, and other scriptures say Jesus raised himself



The Holy Spirit raised Jesus.



1 Peter 3:18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit,

 

[Yes]

Cherry picked text out of context, does not have anything to do with self proclaimed credibility.

The scriptures are clear.

 

[outhouse]

The scriptures are clear.

For you, maybe. But the text warns us of false teachers

That does not have anything to do with your self proclaimed credibility.

 

[Robert.Evans]

Except that you did falsely judge me.

I don't think it was meant that way.

 

[Robert.Evans]

You say I "rewrite scripture" but I don't. I believe scripture to be true as written but it has undergone many things. I say "maybe it means something different" and everyone responds "impossible!". So it proves to me some minds cannot change. BUT I believe when The Lord makes his glorious return it is minds he will change. If you can't change your mind now about little things how will you change it for salvation when he comes?

So you are saying that the bible is translated wrong? Is that not a wild idea? haha

 

[Robert.Evans]

No, not all are saved

1. 1 Timothy 4:10 That is why we labor and strive, because we ...

   For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men[anthropos], specially of those that believe.

''anthropos'' means mankind. Women are saved also.

also

1. 1 John 4:14 And we have seen and testify that the Father ...
   biblehub.com/1_john/4-14.htm
   
   And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. New Living Translation Furthermore, we have seen with our own ...

The Father sent the son to be the saviour of the world. So how can they not be saved?

 

[Robert.Evans]

You call it simple, but even the trinity doctrine says what they claim is unexplainable. lol

You make a three-headed god, and that is from the pagans.

The fact that other people has similar ideas gives more credence to not less that the Trinity is right. The logos of God works in a fractal way, thus we should expect to see the same or similar things all over. It works through everything. Nothing is a one off event, including creation.

 

[Robert.Evans]

Of course humans cannot resurrect themselves. Jesus resurrected himself because he is God.

If he was God THEN, then the sacrifice is nothing and scripture is flawed. He emptied himself remember. What, we might ask, did he empty himself of?!
