How can Jesus be God when it contradicts the the evidence shown in the bible.

Jesus Christ cannot be "Very God" (i.e., of "one person" with the Father) since statements about Jesus Christ are contradictions of statements about God, his Father. Consider the following:
Jesus Christ was tempted (Heb. 2:18) but God (his Father) cannot be tempted with evil (James 1:13)
Jesus Christ died (Rev. 1:18) but God (his Father) cannot die (1 Tim. 6:16)
Jesus Christ was seen by men but God (his Father) cannot be seen by men (1 Tim. 6:16)

Jesus Christ is a separate person from his Father. This is further indicated by the following references:
Jesus ascended to his Father and his God. (John 20:17). Since Jesus after his resurrection ascended to his God,1 then clearly he was not himself "Very God".
He prayed to his Father indicating a distinction and independence of wills. "Not as I will, but as thou wilt." (Matt. 26:39).
He is referred to as a man after his ascension into heaven. (

I conducted a social experiment recently on a group of Christians to determine what effect belief has on the mind and how it affects one's outlook on the world around them. The results were shocking:

- They tend to ignore common sense whenever it contradicts holy scripture, no matter how absurd the scripture is.
- They ferociously try to force other people to accept their way of thinking despite the fact that no one may want to hear what they have to say.
- They are generally incapible of independent thought.
- They are unable to realize that they are exhibiting any of the above charactoristics.

What do you think of the results?

I've been trying to engage people about Israel on here and it seems to be the consensus among the people that I am an evil anti-semite...

why can you bash Islam all day as terrorists and evil-doers but if I propose that the root cause of terrorism is the original intrusion of the Jews into the MUSLIM'S HOLY LAND (after the Jewish God ***let*** gentiles sack Jerusalem and kick the Jews out without turning the water into blood or killing their firstborn children or something to that effect like what happened in Egypt, if you are a true beleiver)...

I get called an anti-semite and a terrorist myself when in actuality I am only a Christian that is confused as to why it's ok for one people to hate another, but not ok for another people to hate another...

Many ppl will realize what time was before Jesus was crucified right?
According to OT any female that commit adultery had to be stoned to death.
Now, Joseph is not the father of Jesus as we know. Mary got pregnant by being virgin.
Did Mary hide the fact she was impregnated by GOD and not by Joseph? And Joseph went alone with the same story?
So Joseph was convinced that Mary did not commit adultery and got miraculously pregnant by GOD? Before Answer this, just imagines the village of primitive ppl of that time who follows GOD law and conceder’s female is a property. Is it possible that other ppl besides Mary new that Jesus was GOD him self?

I nominate this for the funniest quote of the day!

"Atheism doesn't make sense...In order to be an Atheist you have to first acknowledge that there is a God not to believe in.... "

Now, someone please explain to this person why this is just dumb.

"The Bible is not my book nor Christianity my profession. I could never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma."

"Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise."

"This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it."

"Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man."

"I do not believe in the divinity of Christ, and there are many other of the postulates of the orthodox creed to which I cannot subscribe."

Without free-will then the concepts "ought,duty,right,compassion,etc." dont mean anything and don't exist since we have no choice. Why do we get mad when people treat us bad..is it our instinct that they "shouldn't" have done it? With this in mind..if the universe is controlled by the laws of nature>>does our free-will reveal that there is another unseen reality??

"Narrated Abu Hurayrah: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: There is no prophet between me and him, that is, Jesus (peace be upon him). He will descent (to the earth). When you see him, recognise him: a man of medium height, reddish fair, wearing two light yellow garments, looking as if drops were falling down from his head though it will not be wet. He will fight for the cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except Islam. He will destroy the Antichrist and will live on the earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims will pray over him."
