Is it true that Jesus is God?

Question

please answer this

Answer 1

No.

Jesus, if he existed, was just a guy who is now dead.

God is a superstition.

Answer 2

Jesus Christ is most definitely God. He created Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, in his image. He is the Creator of the universe. The Bible says, "Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made". This includes all the stars, all the original animals and plants, and even the angels

It is important not be confused. God did not create Jesus. Jesus is God, and he has always existed.

Jesus proved that he is God by doing many things that only God could do. These are called miracles. He made dead people alive. He walked across a great lake. He made blind eyes see perfectly again. He healed deadly diseases with a word.

Answer 3

John, who saw Jesus many times, tells us that no person has EVER SEEN GOD. Now, ask yourself who the person is in the book of Revelation that John prostrates himself before on 3 occasions, only to be told each time to get up because this person is NOT GOD? Now read The Apocryphon of John where Jesus makes it crystal clear that He and The Holy Spirit were created and cannot be GOD. If you listen carefully to what Jesus said in the n.t. you will see that He came to tell us about The Holy Spirit, not Himself. He also informs us that The Holy Spirit would reveal ALL truth to us. Not a word about a book called a bible guiding us to the truth.

Answer 4

No, Jesus is not a God. He is a messenger of God. He is a prophet. Jesus is a great and respected person, but he is not a God. He is only a human, who is great person. God is greater than anything and anybody. The Holy spirit is an angel and not a God either.

Answer 5

God is God, Jesus is God in the Flesh the human form if you must. The Holy Spirit is the gift of the Lord God living inside of us. I am sorry if I confused you more. The Trinity is a confusing subject and is probably best explained by someone with a background in Bible College or Seminary.

Answer 6

Jehovah created Jesus before time began. Through Jesus, using God's powers, they created all of creation probably starting with the Angels which did God's bidding perfectly.
We're talking eons of time, not years.
After his death , Jesus was given life within himself and in this state he is a God under his father.
Jesus himself said he was NOT GOD ALMIGHTY, that God is greater than he is.

The confusing problem is in the interpretation down through the years. In most bibles in Genesis it is stated that Jesus was known as the "Word" and with God during creation.
So if he was "With" God, how could he then be the creator?

Jesus himself said it was his delight to "Please God" as his master worker. Indicating he created what God instructed him to do.

Answer 7

Yes Jesus is God the Son, who along with God the Father and the Holy Spirit make up the Trinity which is the essence of the Triune Christian Faith.

Answer 8

Dear Friend,

This doctrine is quite simply not true. Jesus is the Son of God, and completely independent from God the father. The trinity is not mentioned anywhere in the Bible.

Answer 9

Jesus Christ is a False Messiah



According to Jesus’ admissions, as well as the Bible’s prophecies, Jesus of Nazareth could not have been the Messiah. This of course, would invalidate Christianity as we know it. The compilation presented here shall be split in three sections. The first shall be the biblical prophecies that were made in order to identify the messiah, which Jesus does not fulfill. The second shall be the prophecies that Christians use to say that Jesus was the Messiah, yet they clearly fail. The third set shall be the prophecies and statements Jesus made yet they are false and have never came true.



Prophecies to Identify the Messiah, Which Jesus Does Not Fulfill:

1) Matthew 1:23 says that Jesus (the messiah) would be called Immanuel, which means "God with us." Yet no one, not even his parents, call him Immanuel at any point in the bible.

2) The Messiah must be a physical descendant of David (Romans 1:3 & Acts 2:30). Yet, how could Jesus meet this requirement since his genealogies in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 show he descended from David through Joseph, who was not his natural father because of the Virgin Birth. Hence, this prophecy could not have been fulfilled.

3) Isaiah 7:16 seems to say that before Jesus had reached the age of maturity, both of the Jewish countries would be destroyed. Yet there is no mention of this prophecy being fulfilled in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus, hence this is another Messiah prophecy not fulfilled.



Prophecies Christians Use to Verify Jesus as the Messiah, Yet Clearly Fail:

4) The gospels (especially Matthew 21:4 and John 12:14-15) claim that Jesus fulfills the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9. But the next few verses (Zechariah 9:10-13) show that the person referred to in this verse is a military king that would rule "from sea to sea". Since Jesus had neither an army nor a kingdom, he could not have fulfilled this prophecy.

5) Matthew (Matthew 2:17-18) quotes Jeremiah (Jeremiah 31:15), claiming that it was a prophecy of King Herod’s alleged slaughter of the children in and around Bethlehem after the birth of Jesus. But this passage refers to the Babylonian captivity, as is clear by reading the next two verses (Jeremiah 31:16-17), and, thus, has nothing to do with Herod’s massacre.

6) John 19:33 says that during Jesus’ crucifixion, the soldiers didn’t break his legs because he was already dead. Verse John 19:36 claims that this fulfilled a prophecy: "Not a bone of him shall be broken." But there is no such prophecy. It is sometimes said that the prophecy appears in Exodus 12:46, Numbers 9:12 & Psalm 34:20. This is not correct. Exodus 12:46 & Numbers 9:12 are not prophecies, they are commandments. The Israelites are told not to break the bones of the Passover lamb, and this is all it is about. And Psalm 34:20 seems to refer to righteous people in general (see verse Psalm 34:19, where a plural is used), not to make a prophecy about a specific person.

7) "When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt." Hosea 11:1. Matthew (Matthew 2:15) claims that the flight of Jesus’ family to Egypt is a fulfillment of this verse. But Hosea 11:1 is not a prophecy at all. It is a reference to the Hebrew exodus from Egypt and has nothing to do with Jesus. Matthew tries to hide this fact by quoting only the last part of the verse ("Out of Egypt I have called my son").

8) "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." Micah 5:2 The gospel of Matthew (Matthew 2:5-6) claims that Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem fulfils this prophecy. But this is unlikely for two reasons.

A) "Bethlehem Ephratah" in Micah 5:2 refers not to a town, but to a clan: the clan of Bethlehem, who was the son of Caleb’s second wife, Ephrathah (1 Chronicles 2:18, 2:50-52 & 4:4).

B) The prophecy (if that is what it is) does not refer to the Messiah, but rather to a military leader, as can be seen from Micah 5:6. This leader is supposed to defeat the Assyrians, which, of course, Jesus never did. It should also be noted that Matthew altered the text of Micah 5:2 by saying: "And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Judah" rather than "Bethlehem Ephratah" as is said in Micah 5:2. He did this, intentionally no doubt, to make this verse appear to refer to the town of Bethlehem rather than the family clan.

Answer 10

No.
He is God's son.
Jesus was created by his Father. Proverbs 8; 22-31
Jesus prayed to his Father.
If Jesus was God he would be praying to himself. the ultimate in egotism.
And WHO spoke out of heaven when Jesus was being baptised?
" this is my son, the beloved...listen to him..."

Jesus always directed prayer to his Father.
Ans never considered himself equal to Gopd in any way.
John 5;19.

I purposely did not quote those scriptures in the hope you will look them up in your own Bible.

Answer 11

We will see the Difference between God and Jesus Christ. And here are the things to consider for someone to be a True god:

We believe that the one and only true God is the Father, the Creator. We hold this belief because it is the doctrine taught by our Lord Jesus Christ and His Apostles (John 17:3, 1: I Corinthians 8:6). God is a Spirit (John 4:24), and, therefore, He has no flesh and bones (Luke 24:39).

There is no trinity of persons in God. Though the Bible speaks of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, never does it refer to all of them as gods nor as three persons in one God; rather, it points to the Father alone as the true God. The Son Himself emphasized that only the Father is the true God (John 17:3, 1) and that He himself is a man telling the truth which He received from God (John 8:40). The prophets also teach that we have only one Father who created us (Malachi 2:10); Isaiah 64:4, 8). He alone is God, there is no other God and no one is like Him (Isaiah 46:9)

God is from everlasting to everlasting, with no beginning or end (Psalms 90:2), immortal (I Timothy 1:17), and does not tire or become weary (Isaiah 40:28).

He alone is the creator of heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things therein, and the seas and all that is in them (Nehemiah 9:6)

Now the Holy Ghost or Spirit...

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the power (Acts 1:8) sent by the Father in the name of Christ, to teach and remind His messengers of all the things that Christ said (John 14:26).

Christ also sends the Holy Spirit to help us in our weaknesses and infirmities (John 15:26; Romans 8:26). The Holy Spirit strengthens, edifies, and comforts the Church of Christ (Ephesians 3:16-17); John 14:26). And although the Holy Spirit is a spirit, never do the Scriptures refer to Him as “God the Holy Spirit?because He is not God but one of the spirits being sent by God.

(Note: there are seven (7) Holy spirits. so its wrong to say that there are three (3) persons in one god. instead there are nine (9) persons in one god. that contradicts the catholic church's doctrine of trinity.)

And our Lord Jesus Christ...

The Iglesia ni Cristo believes that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Matthew 3:17), is the one and only Savior given by God (Acts 13:23). Christ is the sole mediator between God and men (I Timothy 2:5) and the only way to God (John 14:6).

But we do not subscribe to the belief that Christ is God-Man. He is man in nature according to His own testimony (John 8:40) and the teachings of His Apostles (I Timothy 2:5; Matthew 1:18).

The attributes of a human being were found in Christ. He hungered (Matthew 4:2), thirsted (John 19:28), became weary or tired (John 4:6), slept (Matthew 8:24), and died (Matthew 27:50; I Corinthians 15:3). However, Christ as distinct from all men, is the only one who did not sin (I Peter 2:21-22; Hebrews 4:15).

He has been exalted by God and given a name above all other names, that at the name of Christ every knee should bow, those in heaven, and those on earth (Philippians 2:9-11). He has been placed by God far above all principality, power, might and dominion, and every name that is named, and all things have been put under His feet (Ephesians 1:21-22). Christ will eventually subject all His power and authority to the true God (I Corinthians 15:27-28). He had in so many instances introduced Himself as the Son of God but never did He appropriate the title “God?nor “God the Son?for Himself because He is not God but man.

huh? 4 thumbs down? hey aren't you guys reading my answer? i have basis for this answer. oh no!!!!!! O_O
