Do people really believe that Christ is God, or do they want to believe?

Question

Christ was a person, so why are people so brainwashed into thinking he was a God? What is all the fuss about?

Answer 1

i belive that there is no god, or anything, religion is just a way that the government and leaders in high power have created to keep order to some extent, and above all, to make people feel comfortable about death. And no one, will or has ever been a "god" and people need to stop taking so many hallucinagens, back then use of LSD and hallucionagetic plants was common, thus resulting in fiery bushes, flaming tongues and who knows what else.

Answer 2

Because Jesus is God (the Son). Why are you so brainwashed to believe He isn't God? Actually, I feel very sorry for you. Since you have not accepted Christ as your LORD and Savior you won't be able to go to heaven. Jesus loves you so much that He died on the cross for your sins. He is just waiting for you to ask Him into your life. I pray you will make the right decision before it is too late. God bless!

Answer 3

Think of it this way: "God," the Divine Personality, is Holy and MUST remain untainted by the incomplete and soiled spirits of humans (and other unascended spirits of sentient beings throughout the universe?). Christ is the "Word of God" Made Manifest - God's "Theophany" and Intersessionary here on Earth. Jesus was sent to make a "new covenant (set of rules & agreement) for the God - Human Relationship; but in doing so the Old Word - still Jesus, needed to sybollically and actually suffer "death" and be "reborn" again, as God's Word IS infallible, and only God can change the Word of God.... Jesus IS the the "truth & the way"... the WORD of God. Get It? The Christ is "part of God" - that which emmanates from God... The WORD of God is the WILL of God... Jesus was with God from the time of Creation.
Along with the ubiquitous Spirit of God - commonly referred to as the "Holy Ghost," these three qualities of God are referred to as the "Triune God." Many believe the "triune" notion to be of "pagan" origin, but I believe it is a natural "consequence of sound theological reasoning. It makes sense that God needs to reserve his "core" as "sacrosanct" and undefiable, while another "part of his essense is involved throughout the workings of the universe, and still another becomes a direct intercessionary, as required/ desired - "His Theophany" or Emmisary... In my view, if Jesus Christ was NOT the "son of God" (I prefer Living Word), he damn well SHOULD have been. I cannot imagine a more resplendent, beautiful theophany than Jesus, so "He" is going to be a "hard act to follow" if He wasn't who He said HE IS. And, if that WERE the case, He has spoiled "it" for me then, because I'd have major difficulties bending my knee to any other "Soveriegn" claiming to be God's theophany.

Answer 4

I can show 100 verses where Jesus clearly shows that he is NOT God but there is no use for some.

Some people say God came down to earth to know the suffering of menkind. This sounds like a very good logic at first but very dumb when you think about it.

If I make a new DVD player, do I have to become a DVD player to findout what is good for the DVD player and what is not?
No, I just write a manual of "do's" and don't's".

God sent the same manual to us from his prophets.
The last manual for menkind is Quran from what I believe.

Answer 5

It's the same thing really, isn't it? What you believe and what you think you believe.

Are people brainwashed? Or have you been brainwashed into believing that everyone else is brainwashed?

We will never KNOW the truth, we will only believe that we know. Either way, what's the difference? You have to follow your own truth.

Answer 6

I believe Jesus was/is God in the flesh of a man just like the Bible says. The Jews wanted Jesus dead because even He claimed to be equal to God by saying "Before Abraham I Am" now, if you just dont believe Jesus was anything important at all, thats one thing but if you believe Jesus is Lord, then you can't deny His being God.

Answer 7

Jesus was a man and God in one...he had the physical being of a man but his soul was of God. That is why he was sinless. God (the Father) was in Heaven and everywhere (as he always is) but He is so Big that He was able to also inhabit the body of Jesus and so, live through him. When Jesus cried out "Why have you forsaken me?" That was the human part of him. Once the human body died, the Spirit went back to God where it always was and is. The Holy Spirit is also a part of this.

Answer 8

John said it best.

John 1
1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Christ is the Word of God.

Answer 9

We believe because of many reasons. For example the way God answers all our prayers, the way He guides us by showing us something in the Bible, because of all the miracles we have witnessed and experienced, the way we feel when we worship, and because of how the Bible is amazingly scientifically and historically correct and much more. There are way to many reosons to not believe.

Answer 10

Yes, people really believe that Jesus Christ is God who came to earth as flash. Of the prophesies that refer to His coming, he is called Emmanuel, which means "God with us."

Answer 11

Christ and everyone else and everything else are all part of God, we are all "the sons of God"

I think Jesus's teachings were misused by those who started Christianity. All of Christian religion is antichrist.
