how can jesus be God and God's son at the same time? i don't get it.......?

Question

i grew up christian but i'm not sure if i totally understand every thing that has been taught to me........like how jesus died on the cross for our salvation......and he claimed to be God.......how can Jesus be the son of God and God and the holy spirit at the same time?

Answer 1

ditto. i dont understand that whole concept.....christians need to check out their logic first.

Answer 2

God is three in his person --the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
References: Ephesians 4:6 ; Hebrews12:9; Pholippians2:5-11; Colossians 2:9-10; Luke 1:35; Acts 5:1-4.

Colossians 2:9-10: For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.

Hebrews 1:3 The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.

Answer 3

Because you are limiting GOD to human standards. GOD IS GOD. Humans have a beginning and an end; GOD does not. This has been the hardest concept to accept in all of human history.
GOD is everywhere, talking to Satan, and the Saints at the same time. GOD is here and there (where ever there is from here.)
Please, review the answers here with people you trust and find out from your parents/family, teachers (religious, etc.) more, have them explain what you don't understand. Keep questioning things. question the answers if they feel short, or incomplete.

Answer 4

It is called "belief". Beliefs cannot be verified and should not be considered the same thing as truth but rather as dogma.

Jesus never claimed to be God. That is an interpretation some Christians have put on words that were written by other people. Jesus never wrote a single word of the Bible.

Answer 5

Man, just like God is body mind and spirit. However God can be in more than one place at a time. Your trinity acts sepperately and together and make up "you". The same way that your body sometimes acts differently than your mind wants it to is a lot like Jesus being here as a man and in Heaven as God. He was still God, just like your body is still you. But, remember God doesnt have to stay in 1 place like we do.

Answer 6

That is a mystery that no one completely understands. The Trinity-God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit one God but three separate beings. If you do come to understand this, please let me know.

Answer 7

Christ was created much the same way a man was created (before man was placed in flesh).
Christ was the first created (John 1:1)
So Christ was born just as anyone else was born, except God impregnated Mary

Answer 8

Easily - take every thing you thought you knew and throw it out the window.

Now, you have a blank slate for a mind. BELEIVE OR ROT IN HELL! HAVE FAITH!!! GOD CAN DO ANYTHING HE WANTS!

Do you get it yet???? Its like a good horror movie - you have to suspend disbelief if youre gonna enjoy the craptastic stories!

Answer 9

Religion has a hard time dealing with LOGIC....

They just tell you to believe what we're tellin' ya and shut up and don't ask any questions and if you subscribe to a different relgiion than ours, we'll force you to convert or we'll kill you. That's religion for you.

Answer 10

jesus was the son of man, and the son of god. he had his father's authority to forgive sins, heal people, and cast out demons.

Answer 11

Romans 10
You can't grow up Christian.
