Do you feel that, after God made Jesus, he was afraid to share his power with the rest of us?

Question

It is well known, that if God could have made 1 Jesus, he can make a world full of them.

A perfect person, naturally, will know all things, make the perfect decision.

This certainly is not the case. We certainly are nowhere close to knowing it all, & people who say the free will thing (Oh, god allowed this to happen so we can have free will, he doesn't want robots!) really irritate me, as they are just showing absolute ignorance.

We are imperfect people, making imperfect decisions. Yet, somehow, people twist it into "You will be held ACCOUNTABLE for your flawed logics, reasonings, decisions, mistakes!

REPENT loser!!!

Ok, maybe I am being dramatic, but that is their attitude. K, so I don't feel like repenting, cause, I don't see what I did that is so wrong.

Guess I will be punished for that.

See? If God had only created a world full of Jesus's, I would have known better & been able to control my temper better.

God love Jesus better than us or something? Playing partiality?

Answer 1

This is all based on the idea that jesus was created. The bible clearly states that He is God. A world full of Jesus clones. How lonely?

Answer 2

Dear Humble Servant,

With all due respect let me first say that i'm answering your question because you asked and not to start an argument.

First when God created man he did create man perfect (in the sense that man was sinless). Man made a choice and sin entered the world. That is a reality that people are sinners from the time of birth. This is why Jesus died on the cross and also why he spent three years living on the earth and just to experience the temptations and trials that we go through, to show us that making a willful choice to depend upon God's power (that we can be Christ-like). Christ didn't just obey God perfectly as a man because he was Christ- he did so through relying on God.

The world would be wonderful with a world full of Jesus'. But our sinfulness makes us a world full of people who are trying their best to be like Jesus and sharing that love with other people. We are not perfect, but because of Jesus- we have the chance to make decisions and have a real relationship with God.

I'm sorry about your bitter feelings towards feeling like you are being "forced to repent". One thing i can say is no one is forced- God really values our freedom but we do have to answer for the choices that we make.

God doesn't love Jesus more than us. He gave Him for us... What Jesus suffered on the cross was undeserved...

i think you're failing to take personal accountability for your actions. You say if God would have created you better you'd be able to control your temper.

Isn't that like a child blaming his parent for his genes to excuse his bad behavior? If only my parents had "created me" better i wouldn't be rude to other kids. God created us with a capacity to make choices-- it's up to us to make the right choices and understand that we are responsible for them.

Anyhow those are my thoughts and i share them with the utmost sincerity...

Hope that helps. Kindly,

Nickster

Answer 3

well, the reason Jesus was sent to the cross to die was because there was no one who could take that place. Only God himself was blameless and powerful enough to atone for the sins of the whole world. One single man or even an angel for that manner did not have that much power to die for the whole of mankind and even if someone did it it would never redeem the whole of mankind. Since God the Father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit existed before time began and are one, God the son would have vouched that he would give his own life and live as a sinless man and die so that the whole of humanity could be saved, This was only done because God loved mankind so much in spite of the fact that they rebelled against him. So God the father and Jesus are one, we know him by the name of Jesus but he is actually God the son and God himself. one of the persons of the triune God. So God himself took our place in spite of our hatred towards him and still loves us enough to forgive our sins. Jesus was not a created being.. its very clear from the Bible. Maybe your question was not serious.. I do not know, but this is a serious answer and hope that it will help.

Answer 4

God (there's a concept you should question) DID create a world full of Jesuses.
Jesus said "You can do all I did and more (or greater) things." John 17 I think.

Do not believe the ignorant and disbelieving so called Christians about who You are, and Who and what Jesus was/is.

You have the freewill to belive you are not divine, or that you are.

Do the practices Jesus taught and find out what happens.

Answer 5

God did not make Jesus. Jesus is eternal, and has always existed even before He was born on earth as fully God and fully man.

God is one Trinity: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), God the Holy Spirit.

Human beings were created by God and were in perfect fellowship with Him until the Fall, when Adam and Eve decided to try being independent of God. Since then all of creation has suffered the effects of the Fall.

God came to earth to take the punishment for sin in our place because He knew we could never be perfect enough to re-establish relationship with Him based on our own efforts.

Jesus lived as a perfect human and when He died on the cross, He was separated from God the Father and God the Holy Spirit as punishment for the sin of all humanity for all time. His sacrifice was acceptable because He was a perfect offering.

He did for us what we could never do for ourselves. Having conquered the power of sin and death, Jesus was resurrected from the dead and, after appearing to many people, ascended into Heaven.

Just as all of humanity was condemned through the sin of Adam, all of humanity is redeemed through the payment of Jesus' blood--if you receive His gift for yourself personally.

In order to do this, you must repent, acknowledge that you cannot be perfect enough to please Him, accept His gift of grace through Jesus, and confess that you give yourself to God who loves you. Then God the Holy Spirit comes to live inside of you to help you throughout life.

Answer 6

Jesus is God, they are one. He created us perfect and adam and eve screwed us up. They introduced sin into the world. Satan is the father of sin not god. Satan is at war with God, and he wants to overthrow God. We are like the battlefield. Jesus was the nuclear bomb that God dropped on satan and saved us from him. God loves us, all we have to do is love him back. He has given us so much, and a lot of people still refuse to accept his best gift ever, Jesus. Those people are like spoiled children that don't listen to their parents. They are selfish and only think of themselves.

Answer 7

No, God was not afraid to share power with the rest of us.

God sent his son, Jesus to be the sacrificial lamb to save us from our sins...

and yes whether you want to hear it or not, God did give us chocies/free will about how we live our lives..whether we choose to be righteous in the name of God...or live sinful lives..and yes, you know what is right and wrong.

Yes, no one is perfect, we all fall short of the glory of God

You sound confused..perhaps getting into a bible study from one of the local churches could better help you sort things out.
Many of us are still in the dark and have questions, so you're not alone

Answer 8

God loves each one of His children as much as He loves Jesus (John 17:23). As we are sinful and imperfect people, this is the reason why God wants us to die to ourselves and to be like Jesus. God has given us the Holy Spirit to help us have the power (gifts of the Spirit) and character (the fruit of the Spirit) of Jesus in our lives to bless others. We of ourselves cannot help others as well as allowing the life of Jesus to live in and through us to touch others (Gal 2:20). In God's perspective we can do nothing of significance to Him without Jesus (John 15:5). CHristians can live out God's promise that as Jesus is so are we in this world. (1 John 4:17). Contrary to what you write God wants to transform all Christians to be like Jesus in this world.

Answer 9

A race of Jesus' would be completely pointless. Since Jesus is supposed to be the savior of humanity, what purpose could they all serve if there was no one around that needed to be saved?

God wanted to try His hand at an intelligent species WITHOUT Himself having to physically dwell within each person (like He did Jesus). He wanted to see if He could make a people smart enough to be as good on their own. We just blew it big time.

And people wonder why God is pissed. :S

Answer 10

Poor baby!

Perhaps it's time you started to take personal responsibility for the choices you make in life, because it looks as though, right up until this moment, you have been missing the whole point.

Jesus validated humanity and restored all men to their God-given dignity when he himself took on flesh and became man.

Jesus' perfect sacrifice, along with the grace he obtained for us, which is freely distributed by his church, provides all with the ability to be just like Christ, if and when they choose to do so.

It is up to each one of us to choose:

Deu 30:19 I call heaven and earth to witness this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Choose therefore life, that both thou and thy seed may live ...

God would like nothing better than to treat every single one of his children just like he treats his only begotten son.

The Catholic understanding of the unique role of the Blessed Virgin Mary illuminates that principle very clearly, as no one other than Jesus has ever cooperated with the grace of God as perfectly and completely as did the non-divine Mary.

And no one other than Mary has yet to receive the full and complete "package" of rewards and privileges that God has promised to all those who, with the help of his grace, manage to overcome the world.

God's grace is capable of transforming each and every one of us, and thereby transforming the whole of creation.

Thanks to Jesus and his perfect sacrifice, that grace is available to all, through his church.

If we don't choose to make use of that grace in order to transform ourselves and the world, then Jesus will, when he comes again at the end of the age, and we will be all the poorer for it, in the mean time.

The simple fact is, most of us fail to choose to be like Christ, because we never take the time to figure out how God's system of things is actually supposed to work.

And that's the REAL problem.
