Can you say, "Controversy"?

Question

God wrote the Law in Stone, "I AM. the Lord thy God ..." He also wrote "I AM" on the wall, in Scripture. - He didn't say, "We."

Jesus, is a temptation.

Answer 1

Go away!!!!

Answer 2

First, I am not aware of where God wrote "I am" on any wall. Didn't happen.
Second, who made a decree that God revealed all of the divine mystery with the "I am" statement?
Third, why isn't God's Word "I am" just as valid as God's Word, "This is my Son"?
To wit, I was s98310 for twenty plus years. Then I married. I was no less s98310, but even more. Then 5 years later...a little s98310 came along. Had I lied or invalidated the first 20 years of 98310 - not at all.
How could God alone be static in a dynamic world?

Answer 3

That right he didn't say we, so what do you make of that????LOL God is energy, energy which inhabits all living things. No controversy, he is the one and he is the many.If you are in a room with the light on and the room is filled with furniture and people, do they cease to exist when the light is turned off and you can't see the individual forms???

Answer 4

I don't get what you are saying...but... God also said,

Ge 1:26 And God said, Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness:

Ge 11:7 Go to, let US go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech."

Jesus is GOD...the Creator...
15 (Christ) "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:"

Answer 5

Jesus isn't a temptation. Jesus was the only begotten son of God who was sent here to die for mankinds sins. What's so hard to get about that?

Answer 6

If you want controversy, you'll find a bellyfull here. If you want God, concentrate on God, and don't let stuff like this disturb you.

Answer 7

That is pretty controversial. If I wrote "I AM" on a wall I'd probably be fined, not worshipped.

Answer 8

Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth;

God here is "Elohim" , a plural form, signifying the triune nature of God.


Exo 3:14 And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM; and He said, You shall say this to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.

. A name that denotes what he is in himself (Exo_3:14): I am that I am. This explains his name Jehovah, and signifies, (1.) That he is self-existent; he has his being of himself, and has no dependence upon any other: the greatest and best man in the world must say, By the grace of God I am what I am; but God says absolutely - and it is more than any creature, man or angel, can say - I am that I am. Being self-existent, he cannot but be self-sufficient, and therefore all-sufficient, and the inexhaustible fountain of being and bliss. (2.) That he is eternal and unchangeable, and always the same, yesterday, today, and for ever; he will be what he will be and what he is; see Rev_1:8. (3.) That we cannot by searching find him out. This is such a name as checks all bold and curious inquiries concerning God, and in effect says, Ask not after my name, seeing it is secret, Jdg_13:18; Pro_30:4. Do we ask what is God? Let it suffice us to know that he is what he is, what he ever was, and ever will be. How little a portion is heard of him! Job_26:14. (4.) That he is faithful and true to all his promises, unchangeable in his word as well as in his nature, and not a man that he should lie. Let Israel know this, I AM hath sent me unto you.
2. A name that denotes what he is to his people. Lest that name I AM should amuse and puzzle them, he is further directed to make use of another name of God more familiar and intelligible: The Lord God of your fathers hath sent me unto you (Exo_3:15): Thus God had made himself know to him (Exo_3:6), and thus he must make him known to them, (1.) That he might revive among them the religion of their fathers, which, it is to be feared, was much decayed and almost lost. This was necessary to prepare them for deliverance, Psa_80:19. (2.) That he might raise their expectations of the speedy performance of the promises made unto their fathers. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, are particularly named, because with Abraham the covenant was first made, and with Isaac and Jacob often expressly renewed; and these three were distinguished from their brethren, and chosen to be the trustees of the covenant, when their brethren were rejected. God will have this to be his name for ever, and it has been, is, and will be, his name, by which his worshippers know him, and distinguish him from all false gods; see 1Ki_18:36. Note, God's covenant-relation to his people is what he will be ever mindful of, what he glories in, and what he will have us never forget, but give him the glory of: if he will have this to be his memorial unto all generations, we have all the reason in the world to make it so with us, for it is a precious memorial.

"I Am" signifies one God, or one Godhead. If the term "We are" had been used, it would have signified several gods.

Joh 8:24 Therefore, I said to you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.
Joh 8:25 Then they said to Him, Who are You? And Jesus said to them, The Beginning, what I also say to you.
Joh 8:26 I have many things to say and to judge concerning you; but the One sending Me is true, and what I heard from Him, these things I say to the world.
Joh 8:27 They did not know that He spoke to them of the Father.
Joh 8:28 Then Jesus said to them, When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I AM; and from Myself I do nothing; but as My Father taught Me, these things I speak.

Joh 8:58 Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Before Abraham came to be, I AM!

Jesus here clearly claims to be God, the great I AM.

Answer 9

That's just not controversial, Bob, much as you'd like it to be.

Answer 10

what controversy.....lol....I am so amazed at how an unbeliever gets so excited when they think they have found something -to prove God wrong.....well this isn't it bub....try again.......TRINITY.....read about it in the Bible then you may understand it....

Answer 11

WTF are you talking about? He also wrote "the bozo shalt obsess over the trivial and hate mankind, womankind and childkind even."
He could have used paper and he should come back and set the record straight without all this disappeared-lost-in-space mumbo jumbo.
