How was jesus able to father himself (remember jesus "is" god)?

Question

Seriously. Inquiring minds want to know.

Answer 1

Christians say exactly what common sense said but it you accuse them of not being monothestic (they DO pray to Jesus as well as god) they say it is because Jesus is God too in the trinity or what ever. They don't make anysense at all. Is Jesus God or not to them, Even they don't know.

Answer 2

Christianity believes in the holy trinity: Father (also known as GOD) Son (known as Jesus) and the Holy Spirit (known as the Holy spirit or your conscience). They are separates acting as one. Jesus was not Fathered in the "normal" way. Jesus is not God, the Holy spirit is not Jesus - but still they are one. Like when two people get married and they are united as "one". Dont try to understand, if you really dont want to...

Answer 3

Jesus is God's Son. When Jesus was put to death, God had the power to save him, and while Jesus was on earth, he begged God with loud crying and tears to save him, even though he knew he had to give his life to redeem mankind from sin and death. He truly worshiped God, and God listened to his prayers. Jesus is God's own Son.He knew what it meant to obey his Father."(Hebrews 5:7,8)
"When you obey me, you remain in my love,
just as I obey my Father and remain in his love."(John 15:10)
Speaking of Jesus: "Because of that obedience, God lifted him high and honored him far beyond anyone or anything, ever.Philippians 2:9)
Matthew 7:21: "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
Jesus never claimed to be Almighty God. In fact, he was made a little lower than angels:( Hebrews 2:7)
If Jesus were God, then who did he pray to? who resurrected him from death ?--It was his Father in heaven.

Answer 4

IF YOU READ YOUR BIBLE, YOU WOULD KNOW THAT GOD IS THE FATHER THE SON (JESUS) AND THE HOLY SPIRIT ALL IN ONE, THINK ABOUT IT YOU HAVE A FATHER. A FATHER CAN BE A SON, UNCLE A HUSBAND A BEST FRIEND, GUESS WHAT THEY ARE ALL ONE PERSON. YOU NEED TO FIND A GOOD BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH.

Answer 7

in the Islamic version, Jesus (Isa, may he be in peace) is a Prophet of Islam (he's human) and he was willed into existence by Allah (SW).

since ur an 'inquiring mind', maybe u can read the Qur'anic version of Isa's (may he be in peace) life.


exert from the Qur'an:

"So her Lord accepted her with gracious acceptance and caused her to grow an excellent growth and made Zachariah her guardian. Whenever Zachariah visited her in the chamber, he found with her provisions. He said, 'O Mary whence hast thou this ?' She replied, 'It is from ALLAH.' Surely ALLAH gives to whomsoever HE pleases without measure.
Then and there did Zachariah pray to his Lord, saying, 'My Lord grant me from Thyself pure offspring; surely thou art the Hearer of Prayer.'

And the angels called to him as he stood praying in the chamber, 'ALLAH gives thee glad tidings of Yahya, who shall testify to the truth of a word from ALLAH - noble and chaste and a Prophet, from among the righteous.

He said 'My Lord, how shall I have a son, when old age has overtaken me already, and my wife is barren?' He answered, 'Such is the way of ALLAH; HE does what HE pleases,'

He said 'My Lord, give me a commandment.' He replied, 'The commandment for thee is that thou shalt not speak to men for three days except by signs.

And remember thy Lord much and glorify HIM in the evening and in the early morning.' And remember when the angels said, 'ALLAH has chosen thee and purified thee and chosen thee above all women of the time.

'O Mary, be obedient to thy Lord and prostrate thyself and worship the one God with those who worship HIM.'

This is of the tidings of things unseen which WE reveal to thee. And thou was not with them when they cast their arrows, as to which of them should be the guardian of Mary, nor was thou with them when they disputed with one another.

When the angels said, 'O Mary, ALLAH gives thee glad tidings of a son through a word from HIM; his name shall be the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, honoured in this world and in the next, and of those who are granted nearness to God;

'And he shall speak to the people in the cradle, and when of middle age, and he shall be of the righteous.

She said, 'My Lord, how shall I have a son, when no man has touched me? He said, 'Such is the way of ALLAH. HE creates what HE pleases. When HE decrees a thing HE says to it 'Be,' and it is;" -- Qur'an, Surah 3:38-48
