Answer 1

Yes Jesus is God in the flesh

Answer 2

PEOPLE who believe the Trinity teaching say that God consists of three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Each of these three persons is said to be equal to the others, almighty, and without beginning. According to the Trinity doctrine, therefore, the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, yet there is only one God.

Many who believe the Trinity admit that they are not able to explain this teaching. Still, they may feel that it is taught in the Bible. It is worth noting that the word “Trinity” never occurs in the Bible.

Jesus, in his prehuman existence, was “the first-born of all creation.” (Colossians 1:15, NJB) He was “the beginning of God’s creation.” (Revelation 3:14, RS, Catholic edition). “Beginning” [Greek, ar‧khe′] cannot rightly be interpreted to mean that Jesus was the ‘beginner’ of God’s creation. In his Bible writings, John uses various forms of the Greek word ar‧khe′ more than 20 times, and these always have the common meaning of “beginning.” Yes, Jesus was created by God as the beginning of God’s
invisible creations.

WHILE Jesus is often called the Son of God in the Bible, nobody in the first century ever thought of him as being God the Son. Even the demons, who “believe there is one God,” knew from their experience in the spirit realm that Jesus was not God. So, correctly, they addressed Jesus as the separate “Son of God.” (James 2:19; Matthew 8:29) And when Jesus died, the pagan Roman soldiers standing by knew enough to say that what they had heard from his followers must be right, not that Jesus was God, but that “certainly this was God’s Son.”—Matthew 27:54.

Hence, the phrase “Son of God” refers to Jesus as a separate created being, not as part of a Trinity. As the Son of God, he could not be God himself, for John 1:18 says: “No one has ever seen God.”—RS, Catholic edition.

Answer 3

God is ONE: One being, three persons. . We can not FULLY understand the Trinity, but the scripures are pretty plain that God IS Trinity:

Jesus tells his apostles to baptize "in the name [notice, singular, not plural] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matt. 28:19). This is a proof-text: three distinct Persons united in the one divine name. In 2 Corinthians 13:14, Paul writes, "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all." We see this same unity of divine Persons in 1 Corinthians 12:4–11, Ephesians 4:4–6, and 1 Peter 1:2–3.

The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is God (cf. John 8:58, 10:38, 14:10; Col. 2:9). It also clearly teaches that the Holy Spirit is God (cf. Acts 5:3–4, 28:25–28; 1 Cor. 2:10–13). Everyone agrees the Father is God. Yet there is only one God (Mark 12:29, 1 Cor. 8:4–6, Jas. 2:19). How can we hold all four truths except to say all three are One God?

And yes, Jesus DID say he was God. In John 8:58, when quizzed about how he has special knowledge of Abraham, Jesus replies, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I Am"—invoking and applying to himself the personal name of God—"I Am" (Ex. 3:14). His audience understood exactly what he was claiming about himself. "So they took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple" (John 8:59).

Also significant are passages that apply the title "the First and the Last" to Jesus. This is one of the Old Testament titles of Yahweh: "Thus says Yahweh, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, Yahweh of armies: ‘I am the First and I am the Last; besides me there is no god’" (Is. 44:6; cf. 41:4, 48:12).

Answer 4

Trinitarians are very confused. According to the trinity, it takes the Father AND the Son AND the holy spirit to make one God, NOT the Son by himself. If trinity believers say that Jesus is God, then they must say that the Father is God and the holy spirit is God. Isn't that THREE Gods? That is pure polytheism.

Trinitarians say the Father is God, the Son is God, and the holy spirit is God, but they are not three Gods, but one God. By such a belief, trinitatians are putting their trust, not in the Bible, but in the man-made Athanasian Creed. In part, it says: "So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not Three Gods, but One God."

The Bible does not say that God is made up of three persons. At John 17:3, Jesus singled out his Father, Jehovah, as the only true God. So, God is ONE person, not THREE.

Jesus is not God. He is the Son of God. (John 10:36) The apostle John said at John 20:31: "But these have been written down that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, and that, because of believing, you may have life by means of his name."

Answer 5

Jesus is not God. Jesus is God son, and God created him in human form from himself, so that he could walk the earth, and do everything that he could not do because he is only a spirit.

Answer 6

Jesus is not God he's the son of God. He sits at the right hand of God and the Holy Spirt is in us if we have accepted Jesus as the son of God in our hearts.

Now, just because the Holy Spirt is in us at that point, doesn't make us God but the Holy spirt is just there to guide us. If the Holy Spirt made all of our decisions for us we'd be a lot better people and a lot less sin would be in the world.

Answer 7

The holy Trinity consists of the father, the son (Jesus), and the holy spirit. The three of these together is "God" but not just Jesus, the son of God.
