Answer 1

Jesus in the bible is the son of God not God himself. They are two separate entities, plus Jesus was a man

Answer 2

Yes, John the Baptist was the flesh & blood cousin of Jesus,and he was 6 months older then Jesus.
But remember in the beginning was the Word,and the Word was with God,and the word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him,and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life,and the life was the Light of men. And the light shines in the darkness,and the darkness did not comprhend it. John 1:1-5

So, no John was not 6 months older than God,as the Word was with God in the beginning before the world was created.

Jesus was baptized by John in the river Jordan,and immediately,coming up from the water. He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove. THen a voice came from heaven,"You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased" God calls Jesus HIs Son,His only begotten Son. A voice came from heaven,Jesus was in the river Jordan.Two separate events.

Ok, Jesus God's only Son, gave His life for the ransom of many. And yes He died, was buried, defeated death and on the third day arose from the Grave. He later ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father. And He will come again in all His glory. Praise God!

I think you are having trouble with the Trinity. There is God the Father,God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. 3 entities, united as 1, Look at a shamrock,it has three leaves but it is only one shamrock. I think that is how St. Patrick explained the Trinity.

Ask God or the Holy Spirit to guide you into all Truths

Answer 3

John was born 6 months before Jesus was born to Mary (Luke 1:36). Jesus existed before He entered that body (John 1:1).

When Jesus was baptized, He heard the Father's voice. Jesus is not the Father.

The body of Jesus was in the tomb for three days; Jesus still existed during that time.

Did you really think that you came up with some "unanswerable questions," or are these sincere?

Answer 4

Nah. God knew John before he formed John in the womb (Jer 1:5).

I think this is really a question about the Trinity. Basically, as I understand it. There is only one God but he exists in three forms: God the Father, God in the flesh (Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit.

Answer 5

First they tell you Jesus isnt God then they tell you he is because you gotta read the Gospel of John and then they confuse the hell outta you.

Of course he was dead for 3 days like it says in the Bible. I think thats the longest gestation period for zombies to wake up and start walking. How else do you think he was able to get up and be strong enough to move that big rock that blocked the entrance to that cave.

Oh btw Jesus had other brothers and sisters..i think they were Joseph's before he married mary.

So yes John the Baptist was his cousin.

Answer 6

Age and living are relative terms. As far as this world is concerned, you are right. God has been around forever though, and before and after Jesus was on earth, He was still in heaven, so age isn't really an issue.

Answer 7

"If Jesus had raised John the Baptist from the useless, the international will be 100% Christian immediately." I doubt it. What does John ought to do with something else of the worlds religions? i'm particular the Muslims would nevertheless be Muslim and the atheists would nevertheless be round too. as well as anybody else who has diverse beliefs.

Answer 8

they are three in one...three different forms.God holds the highest authority of the three..Jesus was a part of god in humen form.so god there fore was alot older then John...jesus was younger. Jesus heard God,his fathers voice. Jesus died for three days...not God

Answer 9

Jesus is God Himself. Jesus Christ is one person having two natures.

As the fifth century Athanasian Creed put it:
"He is perfect God; and He is perfect man, with a rational soul and human flesh. He is equal to the Father in His divinity but he is inferior to the Father in His humanity. Although He is God and man, He is not two but one Christ. And He is one, not because His divinity was changed into flesh, but because His humanity was assumed into God. He is one, not at all because of a mingling of substances, but because He is one person."

Answer 10

God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are ONE in unity, spirit and mind. But they are not ONE in body. Each one is in full AGREEMENT and actions with the other. Jesus Himself said He was NOT greater than God. He also said, if you have seen me, you have seen God, but did not mean see with your eyes. He means KNOW. If you know the ideas, characteristics, precepts, and principles of ONE, you know them about ALL. Jesus was God, in the sense of them being ONE mind.

Hope that helps.
