Christianity is a ball of confusion since it is a human formulation. The confusion in attempts to justify it by answering such questions is also evident.
But beware! They aren't that stupid when it comes to worldly contracts, they will outsmart you before you know it - not that I was ever a victim.

This is a mystery, I mean we can't answer all the details.
But the Bible tells us that God (one of the three persons of the Trinity known as the Word) became as one with a miraculously fertilised egg in Mary's womb, and was born and lived as a human being.
When Jesus was crucified, God felt the pain and suffering of death because the human being died, but of course the Word is eternal and did not die. Then He raised up the body on the third day, and became as one with it again, although it is now a spirit-driven body and is the forerunner of what we will all become one day.
The Bible tells us that the Word, or the Messiah or Jesus, retains for ever the human side and is therefore eternally man and God. That's how he can more readily understand our trials and our suffering.
I've tried my best to explain..please ask me anything else and I'll do my best to answer.

That is a very good point and it's right God never dies And Jesus is God.s Son not God The Bible never calls Jesus God,wile Jesus was on earth he never claimed to be God, on his Son! As well as that,while Jesus was here on earth he NEVER did anything to please himself, his foremost concern was the doing od God's Will. Yet even though Peoplearound theworld have heardsomething about Jesus Christ, alhough he lived 2,000 years ago. Yet many are confused about who Jesus really was. Some say that he was merely a good man. Others claim that he was nothing more than a prophet. Still others believe that Jesus is God and should be worshiped. Should he?
It is important to know the truth about Jesus, because the Bible says: This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you , the only true God, and of the one you sent forth, Jesus Christ."(John 17:3) Yes knowing the truth about Jehovah God ,and about Jesus Christ, can lead to everlasting life on paradise earth.(John14:6) Furthermore, Jesus sets the best example of how to live and treat others(John13:34,35) Jesus is Jehovah's most precious Son-and for good reason. He is called the firstborn of all creation(Collossians1:15). There is something else that makes this Son special. He is the only-begotten Son."(Colossians1:16)This means that Jesus is the only one directly created by JehovahGod. Jesus is also the only one whom God used when he created all other things(Colossians1:16) Then too, Jesus is called the Word,"(1John 1:14) This tells us that he spoke for God,no doubt delivering messages and instructions to the Father's other Sons, both spirit and human.
The first born Son equal to God, as some believe? That is not what the Bible teaches. As noted earlier, the Son was created. Obviously, then,Jesus had a beginning, whereas God has no beginning or end. (Psalm 90:2) The only-begotteen Son never even considered trying to be equal to his Father. The Bible clearly teaches that the Father is greater than the Son
Mathew24:36) Jesus observed God's laws(John8:55)The Bible teaches that God is greater than Jesus(John14:28;1Corinthians11:3
The Son Jesus Christ was created(Psalm90:2) Obviously, then, he had a beginning, whereas God has no beginning!

God is the Father, Jesus is the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit is the Comforter. They are as one, but yet they are three different dieties. Jesus was the only one to die on that cross. God is a Spirit and those that worship him must worship him in Spirit and in truth, John 4:24

Well the term Son of God,just means the Flesh of God,God being in human form,and although Jesus the Man died, Jesus which is God didnt die,Jesus was fully Man and yes Fully God. therefore when his flesh died His spirit was able to raise him again,because he said no man Take his life but he lay it down for the sheep.that HE may raise it up again. and thats why Jesus his humanity(flesh) prayed but he only did this to give an example he actually said that before he raised lazurus from the dead

Jesus is God. He came to earth and was born son of man. He died as a human, but lives as God.

We Chrisians believe that Jesus was the prohesied Messiah by Moses, and that Jesus was to save all men. Jesus claimed to be one with the Father( God ), thereby claiming to be His Son. God sent Jesus to earth and to have a human body, so that he could be the final sacrifice for all mens sins.
We choose to believe in what Jesus said and taught, we believe that He is the Son of God... and History prooves that He did die at the hands of the Romans- not just the Bible.
Most religions in the world are the same, just with different names... all believe in good works to get to heaven, and a higher-power.
Christianity is the only one that is different from the rest,
THe Bible says that we are saved by God's grace, His Son- and that we could never be good enough on our own. The Law of Moses is impossible for a human being to perfectly obey.
God knew that sin prevents men from comming to Him, that is why He sent Jesus, so that He would provide the way God.
Jesus said that He was the only way to God... and He prooved it
So I believe...
God bless you and yours

Yes, he is the son of God and he is a God. There are three separate personages in the Godhead despite the Catholic decree of the Trinity. As a God, He did not need to die. Having a mortal mother allowed him to experience mortality. He laid down his life as the final sacrifice for us as the atonement. Since no unclean thing can enter the Kingdom of Heaven and we will never be fully clean in this life, He can make up the difference between what we manage to do in this life and what we needed to do. He can offer us salvation.
God the Father is not some shapeless spirit without a body. He has one similar to ours, but perfected.

The Bible calls Jesus the son of God and a God also, yet the Bible also calls Satan a god (2Chr4:4).
4 true Christians there's only one God: the Father (1 Chr8:5,6).

I believe that Jesus is the Son of God, but the Father has given Jesus all power and authority, so He is also God.
The Father and Jesus are spirit. Man has a spirit in him. So it was the same for Jesus, one physical body and one spirit within.
Physical bodies die, but spirits are eternal.
Jesus looked human because we were made in His image, the crown of His creation. He came to be with us and show us how to live.

We are made in the image of God.
Jesus is the Son of God, he is the fulfillment of the Old Testament and brought God to ALL people.
Jesus died on the Cross, there is no evidence that shows anything else. Jesus was 100% man and 100% God.
Many Muslims will never try to understand this because it seems ill-logical to them, but they can justify the actions of Muhammad. That is what I cannot understand and seems il-logical to me.
God gave us the Old Testament through the Prophets, but he sent his Son, Jesus to bring God to ALL people.
Peace!
