JESUS IS NOT GOD

Post #1

Post by onewithhim »

I would very much like to get opinions on this subject. I'll provide several verses from the King James Version of the Bible, and I ask you to give me feed-back.


Jesus' words:

1) "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise." (John 5:19)

2) "My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me." (John 7:16)

3) "Neither came I of myself, but he sent me." (John 8:42)

He replied, after the Pharisees accused him of making himself God:
4) "Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the SON of God?" (John 10:36)

5) "For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say....Whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak." (John 12:49,50)

6) To his Father in prayer: "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God , and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." (John 17:3)

7) "I ascend unto my Father, and your Father, and to my God, and your God." (John 20:17)

To John in the Revelation:
8) "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..." (Revelation 3:12)



Do these quotations show that Jesus was NOT God?

Do YOU believe that he claimed to be God?

Not one of those scriptures say Jesus is not God, they affirm Him to be the Son of God, the God Man Mediator. Jesus is God and the Son of God. Hes both God and Man, you havent disproved that.
There is plenty there that disproves that Jesus is God. Let us leave it to onlookers here to discern what makes sense and what doesn't.

Then how can God be his own Son?

You haven't said it directly, but you make it implicit when you say that Jesus is God and at the same time the Son of God. They are contradictory statements that lead to the ridiculous idea that God is also his own Son.

When people neglect the logic of thought, the least they produce is rational thinking. They can no longer reason properly, and their statements become empty and meaningless.

Well if I havent said it, dont project it that I did, thats dishonesty. Jesus is Both God and Man scripture says. You haven't disproved it either.

Which trinity do you believe? The one where Jesus and His Father are equals in all respects or the trinity where they are not?

You made it implicit. Your reasoning gives us no other conclusion to draw than Jesus is his own Son.
