Answer 2

None of the Bible’s Writers Believed That Jesus is God:

Christians and Muslims both believe in Jesus, love him, and honor him. They are, however, divided over the question of his divinity.

Fortunately, this difference can be resolved if we refer the question to both the Bible and the Quran, because, both the Bible and the Quran teach that Jesus is not God.

It is clear enough to everyone that the Quran denies the divinity of Jesus, so we do not need to spend much time explaining that.

On the other hand, many people misunderstand the Bible; they feel that the belief in Jesus as God is so widespread that it must have come from the Bible. This article shows quite conclusively that the Bible does not teach that.

The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is not God. In the Bible God is always someone else other than Jesus.

Some will say that something Jesus said or something he did while on the earth proves that he is God. We will show that the disciples never came to the conclusion that Jesus is God. And those are people who lived and walked with Jesus and thus knew first hand what he said and did. Furthermore, we are told in the Acts of the Apostles in the Bible that the disciples were being guided by the Holy Spirit. If Jesus is God, surely they should know it. But they did not. They kept worshipping the one true God who was worshipped by Abraham, Moses, and Jesus (see Acts 3:13).

All of the writers of the Bible believed that God was not Jesus. The idea that Jesus is God did not become part of Christian belief until after the Bible was written, and took many centuries to become part of the faith of Christians.

Matthew, Mark, and Luke, authors of the first three Gospels, believed that Jesus was not God (see Mark 10:18 and Matthew 19:17). They believed that he was the son of God in the sense of a righteous person. Many others too, are similarly called sons of God (see Matthew 23:1-9).

Paul, believed to be the author of some thirteen or fourteen letters in the Bible, also believed that Jesus is not God. For Paul, God first created Jesus, then used Jesus as the agent by which to create the rest of creation (see Colossians 1:15 and 1 Corinthians 8:6). Similar ideas are found in the letter to the Hebrews, and also in the Gospel and Letters of John composed some seventy years after Jesus. In all of these writings, however, Jesus is still a creature of God and is therefore forever subservient to God (see 1 Corinthians 15:28).

Now, because Paul, John, and the author of Hebrews believed that Jesus was God’s first creature, some of what they wrote clearly show that Jesus was a pre-existent powerful being. This is often misunderstood to mean that he must have been God. But to say that Jesus was God is to go against what these very authors wrote. Although these authors had this later belief that Jesus is greater than all creatures, they also believed that he was still lesser than God. In fact, John quotes Jesus as saying: “...the Father is greater than I.” (John 14:28). And Paul declares that the head of every woman is her husband, the head of every man is Christ, and the head of Christ is God (see 1 Corinthians 11:3).

Therefore, to find something in these writings and claim that these teach that Jesus is God is to misuse and misquote what those authors are saying. What they wrote must be understood in the context of their belief that Jesus is a creature of God as they have already clearly said.

So we see then, that some of the later writers had a higher view of Jesus, but none of the writers of the Bible believed that Jesus is God. The Bible clearly teaches that there is only one true God, the one whom Jesus worshipped (see John 17: 3).

In the rest of this article we will explore the Bible in more depth, and deal with the passages which are most often misquoted as proofs of Jesus’ divinity. We will show, with God’s help, that these do not mean what they are so often used to prove.

Answer 3

I'm going to place a bet that you don't even have a clue as to what "messiah" actually means.

Jesus wasn't worshipped AS God until 300 years after his death. For him to say that "I am God" would have meant being stoned to death by his JEWISH contemporaries. I believe there very well may have been someone named "Jesus", but I will never again believe what you claim, because I know that it is a claim based on a distortion of history. I know I will get a lot of "thumbs down" marks for this comment, but those of us who speak the truth before it is accepted AS truth must learn to accept this. It isn't easy to be ahead of your time. Jesus was a great man, but the savior? Nope.

Answer 4

Do you really think that everyone is a Christian? I don't believe in Jesus because he isn't real. I don't believe in heaven, so why would I want to go there? Just be happy with you have and stop trying to make everyone believe your way.

Answer 5

Because I feel complete satisfaction in following my own path in life without the influence of Christianity. And if you don't believe me, tell me the English Crusades and the Spanish Inquisitions weren't based on spreading Christianity. I'm an Atheist because I don't believe in a higher authority, and also Buddhist, because I can appreciate the Buddha's message of tolerance and understanding towards all human beings.

Answer 6

Praise God friend!!! Jesus is our King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We are a blessed people and lets pray that all that read this area that as they sleep this night the Holy Spirit will hover over their hearts and begin the process to draw them to the Lord.

Answer 7

They do not believe because they are unable to believe, they are spiritually discerned.

Mat 13:3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
Mat 13:4 And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
Mat 13:5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
Mat 13:6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
Mat 13:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
Mat 13:8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
Mat 13:9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Mat 13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
Mat 13:11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.


1Co 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Answer 8

Um, wait, is that the best you got?
My father is a Pastor and I spent my Childhoood in South Africa and that's the fight you give for your contradicting Religion?
I'm now Atheist after 17 years of being a Pastors' son and reading the new and old Testaments many times and this is your ever so convincing conversion speech?
How dare you waste my time and insult my Intelligence.
And people ask me why I'm Atheist.
Pfft.

Answer 10

everyone belives in jesus but in a different way. im muslim and i believe jesus was a prophet like many before him. i dont think jesus is my savior cuz of my belief in the oneness of god. which makes sense cuz god doesnt need anybody.

Answer 11

what an arrogant point of view.
I hope your faith gives you comfort.
that is why people(even you) beleive.
people need god to make life simple. it answers all the tough question about morals, origins and after life.
no thinking required.
look around, really look around. there is no evidence for the existance of god, but christians think there is.
they find what they call evidence for god, and ignore the insurmountable amount to the contrary. look around for REAL evidence, look not for what you WANT to see.
beleieve those who seek the truth, doubt those who find it.
