Jesus is not God?

Question

(1Corinthians 4:3-4).But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self. 4.For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.--(Acts 2:22 22) Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know.(John 13:15-16) 15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.16Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

Answer 1

Jesus is not G-d. It is blasphemy to say so. There is no G-d but G-d.

Answer 2

Disagree with the assertion that Jesus was not God. God can also be a title or position not just 'one being'. Jesus was to also be called Emmanuel which means God with us.Further, the Hebrew has (ballpark estimate) about 10 terms translated as God, some singular some plural.
I will stop here for now.

Answer 3

Nope--Jesus is not God. See Colossians 1:15, 16.

Answer 4

True, but than again he may not have even existed at all. Even when I was Catholic and believed that Jesus was the Son of God I never believed that he was also God. The trinity does not make a whole lot of sense. I used to think of it as like a Roman triumvirate. Three rulers sharing the throne but with one head of the throne (God the Father).

Answer 5

Jesus is the only begotten-Son of God.

"He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; 16 because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth, the things visible and the things invisible, no matter whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All [other] things have been created through him and for him." Colossians 1:15-16

He is the master worker who grows fond of God day by day...(Proverbs 8:30),

In Genesis 1:26 we hear God speaking to someone “Let us make man in our image.”Who is the other in US? Yes, it was Jesus, the masterworker, whom God created first from all his angels...that is why he is called only begotten because he is the only one created by God alone and without help, after creating Jesus, the two of them created the other angels and creation.

Answer 6

Jesus said of Himself that He was God. He applied the name of God, "I AM," to Himself in several passages. Here's a few examples: Matthew 14:27, Mark 6:50, Mark 13:6, Luke 21:8, John 4:26, John 6:20, John 8:24, 28, 58, and John 13:19. There are several others I have not listed. Besides this, Jesus said that He & the Father were one (John 10:30). This describes a unity, even though there are two. (Note, the I AM passages I referred to are from the Greek, as the English translations often mistranslate I AM for "It is I" or "I am He," to allow for readability.)

Another angle to pursue is the various Scriptures that demonstrate that God's attributes are present in Jesus as well as the Holy Spirit. For example, the Father is eternal (Psalm 90:2), and so is the Son (John 1:2), and so is the Holy Spirit (Hebrews 9:14). Another shared attribute is their holiness. Only God is truly holy. The Father is holy (Revelation 15:4), so is the Son (Acts 3:14), and so is the Spirit (Acts 1:8).

Next, Jesus received worship, which is only for God:

"Then the men in the boat began to worship Jesus, saying, "You certainly are the Son of God!" (Matthew 14:33)

"Suddenly Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" They went up to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him." (Matthew 28:9)

"They worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy." (Luke 24:52)

"He said, "Lord, I do believe," and worshiped him." (John 9:38)

"I heard every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, and on the sea, and everything that is in them, saying, "To the one who sits on the throne and to the lamb be praise, honor, glory, and power forever and ever!" Then the four living creatures said, "Amen!", and the elders bowed down and worshiped." (Revelation 5:13-14)

Lastly, Jesus forgave sins. The Pharisees were correct when they asked, "Who can forgive sins but God alone?" (Mark 2:7) And yet Jesus did that several times.

Answer 7

You cant pick out a couple of verses and think you have any clue what Scripture teaches. If you really want to know what it teaches, put down the "How to Show a Christian they believe wrong and Must Follow Muhammad (PBNJ)" book and pick up a Bible and read it.

Answer 8

Jesus is still God's gift of salvation he was the promise of God to isreal with out hime no one is saved. he is one with God it is convussing to see him as a human as well as God but I do not think Paul was saying Jesus is not = and one with God.

Answer 9

Jhn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, AND THE WORD WAS GOD.

Jhn 1:14 AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Answer 10

I have proof from their own bible that he wasn't:

Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the Son of Man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

It says right here that God is not the Son of Man, and who was the Son of Man? Jesus. God is not Jesus,ergo, Jesus is not God.

Answer 11

I don't know; but i do know that what we do with Jesus is what we do with God. he that believes me, believes in God, he that loves me loves God, he that hates me hates God. somehow or another how we deal with Jesus is dealing with God. He is a symbolic door to God.
