Since Jesus is called Savior in the New Testament, and since only Jehovah God can be Savior, then..?

Question

then does not this mean that Jesus is Jehovah God?

Answer 1

yes and most of us call Him Almighty....the Trinity...

Answer 2

Romans 6:23 Jehovah God gives salvation through the sacrificial Lamb, Jesus Christ... Jesus' sacrifice of his perfect human life was what The One True God Jehovah required to buy back, or ransom, what Adam lost for all his offspring.

Acts 4:12 There is no other sacrifice but Jesus' that is acceptable to God. Jehovah ONLY considers using the value of that sacrifice to cover the sins of those showing repentance. Matthew 10:22

The word trinity never appears in the Bible, nor does the concept. Deuteronomy 6:4; Mark 10:18; Colossians 1:13-20; Colossians 1:15; John 14:28, 31; John 5:19; John 3:16-21; Hebrews 5:7-10;

Jesus himself NEVER has had a satanic attitude about making himself equal to God.

You MUST read Philippians 2:1-16; ESPECIALLY Philippians 2: 5-11...

Answer 3

FAULTY LOGIC ALERT.

Let me correct that for you.

You're saying, in effect:

1) The OT says only Jehovah is Saviour
2) The NT says Jesus is Saviour
3) Therefore, Jesus is Jehovah.

WRONG. That doesn't cohere. What you want is something like this:

1) The OT says only Jehovah is Saviour
2) The NT says Jesus is Saviour
3) Both OT and NT are correct
4) Therefore, Jesus is Jehovah.

All you need to do is prove point 3, and then you'll have an argument, and all us non-believers will be converted.

Answer 4

When the Bible says Jehovah is our Saviour it means that Jehovah made some measures that only he could make being the only true God so that the mankind could be saved.

"... and all flesh will have to know that I, Jehovah, am your SAVIOUR and your Repurchaser, the Powerful One of Jacob." -- Isaiah 49:26

When the Bible says that Jesus is our Saviour it means that he is the instrument through which God will save the humankind (Jesus' sacrifice).

"Because there was born to you today a SAVIOUR, who is Christ [the] Lord, in David’s city." -- Luke 2:11

Answer 5

(Judges 3:9) 9 And the sons of Israel began to call to Jehovah for aid. Then Jehovah raised a savior up for the sons of Israel that he might save them, Oth′ni·el the son of Ke′naz,. . .

(Judges 3:15) 15 And the sons of Israel began to call to Jehovah for aid. So Jehovah raised up for them a savior, E′hud the son of Ge′ra, . . .

So according to your reasoning Othniel and Ehud are also equal to Jehovah.

So much for your trinity theory.

This makes 5 so you believe in a Pentateuch?

.

Answer 6

No.

Clearly, Jehovah empowers Jesus to be humankind's savior.

(1 John 4:14) The Father has sent forth his Son as Savior of the world

(John 3:17) God sent forth his Son into the world... for the world to be saved through him.

(Acts 5:30,31) The God of our forefathers raised up Jesus... God exalted this one as Chief Agent and Savior

Answer 7

Jesus was Jehovah, the Lord, YHWH. I did not use that 'logic' to derive that conclusion. By the way,it is also contrary to the addition to God's word, better known presentlyin USA as the Red Letter Edition.

Answer 8

It states in the Gideon bible in Genisis 3 :22 that man has become one of Us. I believe that would mean they were separate intities. They are of 1 mind and 1 heart so they both agree on our salvation.

Answer 9

No.

The scriptures state we gain salvation THROUGH Jesus Christ and by God Almighty.

Answer 10

Yes it does. Jehovah is Trinity, though the Old Testament writers were not aware of that fact.

Answer 11

Yes

Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
