Who believes in Jesus (peace be upon him) being God?

Question

While the term "Son of God" has been used in reference to Jesus, it should be noted that God has used this title for many of His chosen ones.

For example, God, in the Old Testament refers to David: "I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, 'You are my Son; today I have begotten you'" * (Psalm 2:7)

This metaphorical understanding is furthered by Jesus' own words and actions. Jesus is known to have engaged in many human devotional activities such as fasting and praying. But perhaps the most significant evidence is that Jesus claimed to lack knowledge of the future because, as he claimed, only the Father possessed perfect knowledge. (Mark 13:32).

Answer 1

I believe Jesus (PBUH) was the son of God as we are all sons of God. Jesus was a highly evolved soul and had a very special mission from God to deliver a message to the people of that time. His mission was fulfilled. Sadly many have misunderstood and misinterpreted his message.

When Jesus said "I and the Father are one" he did not mean he WAS the Father. He was one with the father in spirit, as we are all one with the Father in Spirit.

Answer 2

Speaking of Jesus' Second Coming, Matthew 24:36 (and Mark 13:32) tells us, “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.”

When Jesus spoke these words to the disciples, even He had no knowledge of the date and time of His return. Although Jesus was fully God (John 1:1, 14), when He became a man, He voluntarily restricted the use of certain divine attributes (Philippians 2:6–8). He did not manifest them unless directed by the Father (John 4:34; 5:30; 6:38). He demonstrated His omniscience on several occasions (cf. John 2:25; 3:13), but He voluntarily restricted that omniscience to only those things God wanted Him to know during the days of His humanity (John 15:15). Such was the case regarding the knowledge of the date and time of His return. After He was resurrected, Jesus resumed His full divine knowledge (cf. Matthew 28:18; Acts 1:7).

Matthew 24:36 clearly states that the Father alone knows when Jesus' return will be. Verses such as John 5:30; 6:38; 8:28-29; 10:30; 12:49; 14:28, 31; and Matthew 26:39, 42 demonstrate Jesus' submission to the Father as well as their Oneness in the Godhead. Yes, they are both God. But some things Jesus had apparently chosen to "give up the rights" to be privy to during His earthly ministry (see Philippians 2:5-11). Jesus, now exalted in Heaven, surely knows all, including the timing of His Second Coming.

Answer 3

　　I believe that Jesus was God. The following paragraph is an explanation of why I believe that.
　　Jesus healed the sick. Jesus preached truth. Jesus prophesied about Himself and the future. These are things that He certainly could have done as God, but He didn't have to be God in order to do them. There have been others, who were merely men, who have done these things also. But there are two things that set Jesus apart from the others and make Him unique: His claim to forgive sins and His resurrection. Jesus said that He had the authority to forgive sins. This was something only God could do, so by saying this Jesus was claiming to be God. Then there is the resurrection. Jesus was not the first person to be raised from the dead. Elisha raised a boy from the dead and Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. But Jesus was the only person to raise Himself from the dead. He alone overpowered death. The boy eventually died again, and Lazarus also died again, but Jesus ascended into Heaven without dying again. He had conquered death once and for all. This is something only God could have done.

Answer 4

Whenever you look at this question, you have to search the Scriptures. Your answer is found in the first chapter of John. "1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 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 5

Psalm 2 is full of references to Christ, who do you think the son of God is David? As far as Mark 13:32 is concerned,
It is not that he doesn't know, it is knowledge withheld.

Answer 6

You miss one crucial point in your argument. Jesus was 100% man and 100% God. Infinite person beyond human comprehension apart from Divine revelation.

Human intellect will never be able to figure out how God did this. We can think ourselves silly and go nuts trying to get a grip on spiritual truth, but it will all be in vain. Most of those who insist on finding God through their intellect soon see that there is no logic to it. That is what keeps the highly intellectual
from faith. Their intellect gets in the way. The supernatural will never be clear to anyone unless they humble themselves and admit their need for God.

Once a person gets past their intellect to faith, their intellect is
enhanced significantly and spiritual truth comes easy to them.
Then believing Jesus is God is not an obstacle because their understanding of the proper interpretation of scripture makes it easy to understand.

Answer 7

First, read the story about Jesus in the testimony of his apostles not in the Q'uoran where says Jesus was not crucified, that Allah, confused us for us to think that.

Second, Jesus is very well Known he said clearly and loud many times, I am the Messiah, the chosen ones.

Third, He told his apostles, leave your properties and come with me.

Fourth, the teachings of Jesus are the basement for the actual secular laws on earth and the world of Mohamed is very well know for his atrocities.

5th, you should take more care about Mohamed's life and lack ot theology nor metaphysical plus 0 (zero) content, just a never ending rules to kill people.

6th. Read the whole Q'uoran and Hardith and you find atrocity and atrocity over atrocity, if you go to history by historians is eve more crazy.

7th Jesus had not being interested in Children for sex, he told, "let the children come to me cause to go in Heaven you have all to be like children" in reference to the innocence...and I do prefer the path of Jesus, than Mohamed who married and had sex in his 55 years old with a child of 6.

Thank you very much and good night

Answer 8

Greek and Hebrew are two different languages, and the Bible was written in Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic. "of" can refer to a part, or from. check the Greek and Aramaic used in the New Testament.

we are "sons" (and/or daughters, depending on your translation) of God, not the Son. and Mark 13:32 speaks of the rapture. God knows all no matter in what manifestation, just the Father part of Him knows that specific detail.

I'll believe Jesus being God forever. it takes more than a clichéd arguement to shake my faith...

and please, stop trying to harm Christians' faith. if they wanted to convert to Islam, they would've. besides, if you make people weak in faith now, what makes you think they'd be good muslims?

Answer 9

Actually if you read further in that psalm it also says "I will not allow him to undergo decay". Yet David is dead and burried and worm food. The verse is clearly not talking about david. This is a prophecy of Jesus.

Answer 10

Many are called sons of God but there is only one called the only begotten of the Father.
