To Christians who believe Jesus is not God itself: Do you still think Jesus was perfect?

Question

If not, why not? Any scriptural support?

I'm agnostic, so I neither need atheists telling me I'm foolish for believing in God nor Christians telling me I'm betraying my faith.

I am seeking information.

I didn't ask for opinions from people who believe Jesus is God. Your verses can be refuted just as easily as you refute the other side, you know.

Answer 1

I'm a Christian who believes Jesus isn't God. It's mainly because of the Trinity beginnings which weren't around when Jesus was here on the earth. Plus, he never said he was God which he would have done so that there wouldn't be any confusion. He also prayed to God so how could he pray to himself? There would be no need. I believe Jesus was perfect.

Answer 2

Jesus was not perfect, b/c Jesus was a man. He walked amongst men. He was good, but not perfect. The perfection is in God

Answer 3

Jesus as predicted is God and lived a sinless life so he could as promised die for our sins=
Isaiah 9:6 the child to be the Son given, the mighty God and the prince of peace..
Isaiah 52:13-53:12 To be the exalted one. To first be marred more than any man, and to lay down his life to make atonement for our sins.


The way I came to know him is by believing what he spoke to us from heaven (Revelation1:1 chapter 1 verse 1 & 3:19&20 "I love you and ask you to repent of your sins (even one lie) quickly. Behold I stand at your heart door and knock If you hear my word and open the door, I will come in and be your friend."
so I prayed "Jesus I am sorry for my sins, come into my heart and help me, be my friend, amen."
Its all good and now as a Jew who has come to know Jesus is my Messiah, savior, and best friend giving me joy beyond words and power to live right.

best wishes and thanks for a good question and your comments, David an x agonstic still questioning things though

Answer 5

"...CHRIST JESUS...who being in the FORM OF GOD, thought it not robbery to be EQUAL WITH GOD: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."
(Philippians 2:5-8)

" In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word WAS God. .....And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us". John 1

" I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, The ALMIGHTY." - Jesus (Revel.1:8)

Answer 6

Yes. Heb. 4:14, 15: "Seeing, therefore, that we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold onto [our] confessing of [him]. 15 For we have as high priest, not one who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tested in all respects like ourselves, but without sin."

As verse 14 says, Jesus is the Son of God, not God himself.

Answer 7

I personally believe Jesus WAS God, because I believe in the Trinity. It was in the Bible.

Answer 8

Jesus is God and perfect.

Answer 9

Yes, otherwise he could not atone for our sins. When it came to sacrifices, the Israelites were to offer up their best animals. Like wise, Jesus was the best. He was obedient even to death.

Answer 10

Jesus is perfect.
Jesus was God's word made into flesh.
He was not a sinner.
