So jesus came to earth as a prophet....na lets meet half-way....Ok he was the son of God....and he came to earth and he was crucified....to relieve your sins...(including child rapers, and their kind but thats another question)...Now Who sent him to earth to be crucified...? Did he spontaneous appear and want to pardon these monstors....nope God sent him....Did jesus forgive you....nope God did....now tell me God created you...gave you life...and all you have.....but you worship Jesus....its in Jesus's approximate words..."Worship God through me(or something like that)"....now I...could say..."i went to texas by bus"....also said ...I went to texas through public transport...get it....Jesus i just the vessel to God...now the question....Why have Christians become sooooo enthralled by the vessel or vehicle...and forgotten their destination God....? why don't they worship God....some may say God and Jesus are one...then how can God Create Himself....?!!? ...isn't it stupid...?

religion in itself is quite stupid for lack of a better word.if a person lives his/her life according to the bible, well you just a sheep which kinda ties in to the whole sheperd and his flock thing lieing down in green pastures,, but are sheep used as a food scource?.. anyway jesus in the pinnacle of humanity , to some he surpassed his father or creator, seeing as how jesus came here took a licking from hell and like timex kept on ticking , and all so our souls could b saved,, dont remember god doing that,,still you pose a very entertaining question,,my final thought is this..if we are indeed sheep ...who is using us as a food scource....can we really be here just to offer praise and worship a diety for all time,, and if so,wouldnt that make Him vain,, hey wait a sec,,isnt vanity sin........

A) You raise the questions that were raised by the Arians back in the second century AD.

B) What IS the nature of Jesus? Is He human? Is He divine? Is He some weird amalgam of both, but really neither?

C) The Church answered thus: Jesus is both true God AND true man. He has a complete human nature. Body by Mary through a special "zap" by the Holy Spirit (actually all He had to do was insert a y chromosome into the egg and kick start gestation and POOF! instant boy baby). Soul infused by God as is done with every human being. Together they make a human being, with a human nature.

D) But He was also, always and forever, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, the Son of God, complete with Divine nature which He shared with the Father and the Holy Spirit.

E) One person, that person the Second Person of the Trinity, possessed of two separate and distinct natures, one human, one divine. That's Jesus, the Christ, Son of the living God.

F) He's NOT a vehicle or a vessel. He's as much God Almighty as the Father.

G) It is the profoundest mystery of our faith: that within the Godhead a generation has been going on from eternity. Unlike all other generations, this one implies no production of another being, no cause-and-effect relationship, no change in the generator, no dependence of offspring on parent and no semblance of decision on the part of the Father to bring the Son into existence. We cannot figure out how God can be this way. It's been a major stumbling block to a lot of people, including many who followed Him while He was on earth.

H) The technical term is homoousios, which comes from the Greek "homo" same and "ousia" being. The word was chosen because it expressed in plain language what the sound faith of the people had always proclaimed, that the Father and the Son were certainly two individuals, but that they had only one divine nature (or substance or being). There is a plurality of persons in God, but there is only one God.

I hope this helped.

I'm with you. How can the God of the Tanhk suddenly break into three persons in the New Testaments, with Jesus being the most important one. Pauline Christianity comes along and throws out 99% of Judaism and the Jewishness of the Jewish Messiah, Jesus Christ who never was a Christian during his lifetime, etc. If He were God, He would never abolish even the smallest portion of His Laws and traditions. Explain that!

Jesus= God and viceversa.

No death on the cross, not forgiveness os sin, so no, Jesus is NOT just a vessel, He is very, very, very important in this salvation issue, actually He is everything about it.

Maybe you ought to look up the definition of blashemy before spouting off your big mouth cause it's an unforgiveable sin according to the bible.
Now, blashemey is saying anything wrong about the supernatural at all.
that is the definition so maybe we all outght to button our lips.

Well I am one of the small christian minority that I believe that God and Jesus are two seperate beings. They have the same purpose and that is why they are referred to be as one. Jesus even said be one like me and the apostles are one.

If your question is serious, you might understand this better if you walk through the Protestant & Catholic creeds and confessions & dogmatic statements. They explain Trinitarian concepts quite well.

God always has been and always will be, he is on a much higher level. I don't worship a Christian God. God is God.
