No-one can prove either side. That's why there's still a debate...

It is said that he said that he said that he was the "Son of Man" and rejected that he was the Son of God, when he was proclaimed this by Simon Peter. We really don't know what he said as very little was written about him till after he died, and we all know how stories can change even in a few minutes. Ever try the experiment in school when the teacher tells one student a short story and he is supposed to whisper it to the next and so on ? After that story has been whispered from student to student and the last student is asked to recite what it was he heard, it comes out quite significantly different. I have no doubt that Jesus and Mohammed and Buddah (Siddihartha) etc. all existed (Peace be upon them all). And they basically had one message and that was to be good to each other, live in the Grace of God, follow the "Golden Rules" (basically universal among all societies) and not be so freaked out about material wealth. I have no problem believing and trying to follow those messages. The problem lies in the fact these so called Faith based ideologies where taken by Men and the words of the Prophets (Peace be upon them) where twisted around to become a controlling form of Government and their original message was lost. Peace and Love Brothers and Sisters !!!!
Can we not all join hands and just revel in the fact that we all worship God in whatever form but agree that God exists ?

Well, the Bible makes it clear that Jesus is more than just a prophet. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
Think about it. Considering the Holy Bible, the Koran, the Book of Mormon, etc...Does anyone else claim to be the son of God? No. The others claim to be prophets, but Jesus does not. He is referred to as Lord, and worshipped as such.

Jesus is the son of God,
John 3:16--- for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten SON that whosoever beliveth in him shall not perish, but have eternal lasting life.
Besides, faith is not "proved" at all... the reason some people dont believe, and some do is because its left to faith- only other clues are in the bible. If every one knew for a fact, then it would no longer be faith- and there would be no point in Gods plan.
God Bless!!!

Jesus is the son of God if you go by the gospels and depending on how you interpret the old testament prophets.

As the THEORY of evolution is just that ,a theory,it's never been proven.So it is with the Bible.However I as a Believer,have a strong FAITH.As to your question,read the Bible.God,the Father,Jesus,the Son of God,the Holy spirit,God dwelling in the souls of those who accept Chist as they're personal Savior.That's as simple as I can make it without a long theological dissertation

what Jesus said about his existence before his birth in human flesh (john 8:58)
This name "I AM" BOTH IN THE HEBREW AND IN THE ENGLISH IS A FORM OF THE VERB "TO BE" AND IMPLIES THAT HE IS THE ETERNAL SELF-EXISTING ONE. Jesus demonstrate he had the power of God,that he is the Son of God,and that he is God the Son.
a. power to read the human heart (john2;24-25
b. power to foretell the furture (john 13;19)
c. power to creative (john 6;1-20)
d. power to give life (5:21)
e. he had the right to receive worship (matthew 14:33)
This is an imporant point since created being such as men and angels are not to be worshiped (act 10:25,26)
(rev 22:8,9), (matthew 4:8-10). but jusus accepted worship of his disciples as Deity. thomas said of him"MY LORD AND MY GOD" (john 20:28,29
angels also worshiped him(hebrew 1:6) ultimately all the universe will adore him (philippians 2:10)

I'll just give you one scripture.....
John 1:34..."And I have seen it, and I have borne witness that this one is the Son of God." That was John the Baptist speaking of Jesus.

How much "peace on earth and goodwill to men" have you seen since Jesus was born? How many wars have been fought and people killed in the name of religion?
