"Here O Yisrael Yah your Elohim is one"

Yahshua and Yah are one, they even have the same name "Yah" the difference is his son name has "Shua" salvation. Yahshua is God they are both God and are one. just like married man and woman become one. When you put two half's together you get 1.

Just like Moses in his day, Moses was the man to talk to Israel from God. No one can get to God without a man of God to talk to you. In todays case it's Yahshua, just a God sent Moses he sent Yahshua to Israel.

Jesus is the son of God, not a part of God, although, he was created by God, from God. At Colossians 1:15, 16 the Bible calls him the "firstBORN" of all creation. That fact, coupled with the fact that God referred to Jesus as "my son, in whom I am well pleased" and Jesus called God his father should cinch the question. Unfortunately, some humans have decided to muck all this up with misinterpreting scripture and some have even gone so far as to add to the Bible spurious scriptures that have since been revealed and removed, but the damage has been done. Hope this helps.

Questions about Jesus, or Questions designed to convert or recruit people to Jesus (or even away from Jesus for that matter)are simply a waste of time. Ditto for trying to clarify minute points of scripture when there are so many different interpretations and editions of text. People have already decided for the most part if they believe in the fiction written in the bible. People who feel God talks to them have psychological problems because hearing voices is a psychological illness. All the major world religions have issues like this.

gratvol,
The person of God who was called the Son of God was before the beginning. And He always was with God. And He was God.
(John 1)

The came to Earth after emptying Himself, and took the form of a man, He struck a tent in human flesh, for the literal Greek.

He fulfilled the role of the perfect servant, and fulfilled the Law as only He could. The type of the Old Testament of the Passover Lamb, who lived with the family, and was killed, it's blood the symbol of the covering for whoever was in that house, sinful or not, and they would by doing so, escape the Wrath of God.

That is the picture of the Lamb of God. That was the foretelling of the sacrifice Jesus would make for the whole world.

By faith if we are to accept His sacrifice, we become recipients of that atoning work by Jesus, so that we can escape the Wrath of God, and be saved.

He is described as being the same essence of God, and thought it not robbery to be equal with God.

Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

If you read John 8 and 10, you find that Jesus made some claims about himself that the Jews thought blaspemy. If He were to claim Himself just a man with a message, or just a good and wise teacher, they would have had no reason. But Jesus made claims about Himself that showed that He was more than that. He claimed to being a witness to Abraham. And He claimed to be I AM, that is: everlasting to everlasting. That was a claim only God could make, so they sought to end His life for blasphemy.

But none of this will be an account that you should value, unless you have the Holy Spirit to guide you. And you will not have the Holy Spirit unless the Father wants you to have it. So you are attempting to cross lines that are not yours to cross unless you have the wisdom of God to understand it. If this doesn't make any sense to you, then you have my point exactly.

Read the first verse of Genesis which states, "In the beginning was God..." God is a plural word. The Hebrew word is elohim.

Now look at John. In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the word was with God and the Word WAS GOD. The same was in the beginning with God.
All thimgs were MADE by Him and without Him was not anything made that was made.
So you see it was Jesus who was the Creator and therefore it is appropriate that He should also come and provide a way for our sins to be forgiven. I am not saying that He alone created for i believe God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit were actively creating together,

It is hard to understand. Of course, we aren't God.

God chose to reveal himself to us in 3 ways.

1) God, the Father...the creator of all things.

2) God, the Son...aka Jesus. This is the part where God decided to give us a loop hole into heaven, by living a perfect, sinless life as a man, to conquer death.

3) God, the Holy Spirit. Once someone has chosen salvation, the Holy Spirit comes and lives inside that person to lead, guide and direct that person.


It's like this:

What are the 3 primary colors of the rainbow?

Red, Yellow, and Blue.

All of them make up a rainbow. Separately they take on there own identity, but we all know that they are the three primary colors of a rainbow.

Just because we can't fathom God's eternal existence doesn't make it illogical. We tend to just think from our perspective, and not God's because, well, we only know what we are.

Jesus is God Himself made flesh. The reason He is called the Son of God is because He was born as a human to the Virgin Mary. So really God impregnated Mary with Himself and Mary gave birth to God. Confused? Don't worry, the majority of Christians are too which is where faith comes in.

Jesus Himself claimed to be God and others recognized Him as Deity. He said, "I and the Father are one." (John 10:30) The Greek language, in which the New Testament was originally written, is explicit. Literally, Jesus said, "I and the Father, We are one [in total essence]." Jesus also claimed that He was the only way anyone come to God: "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me." (John 14:6) Again, the Greek language is very clear. Jesus used the definite article "the" rather than "a" when He stated He is ‘the way’ and not ‘a way’.

II. THE INCARNATION

461 Taking up St. John's expression, "The Word became flesh",82 the Church calls "Incarnation" the fact that the Son of God assumed a human nature in order to accomplish our salvation in it. In a hymn cited by St. Paul, the Church sings the mystery of the Incarnation:


Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross.83

462 The Letter to the Hebrews refers to the same mystery:


Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me; in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. Then I said, Lo, I have come to do your will, O God."84

463 Belief in the true Incarnation of the Son of God is the distinctive sign of Christian faith: "By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God."85 Such is the joyous conviction of the Church from her beginning whenever she sings "the mystery of our religion": "He was manifested in the flesh."86

III. TRUE GOD AND TRUE MAN

464 The unique and altogether singular event of the Incarnation of the Son of God does not mean that Jesus Christ is part God and part man, nor does it imply that he is the result of a confused mixture of the divine and the human. He became truly man while remaining truly God. Jesus Christ is true God and true man.

During the first centuries, the Church had to defend and clarify this truth of faith against the heresies that falsified it.

Jesus Christ is not part of God. He is God as is God the Father and Holy Spirit. Each persons of the Trinity is God, they are not parts of God. God is three persons who are one in essence. Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity, the only begotten son of God. He is not the same person as God the Father. They are distinct persons. However, they are share one essence along with the Holy Spirit. Ultimately it isn't supposed to be logical. It is a mystery. All we know is how God has revealed Himself to us and as three distinct persons who share one essence is how that has taken place.
