If Jesus said in the bible that he is God then in other verses said he is son of God .. which statement I have to believe in?!!
If I make myself believe that he is God..actually I wouldn't like it because my imagination of my Lord can not be incarnated in a man
If I made myself believe that he is son of God according to the other verses it would be rather strange to me because how come the son of the Lord eat, drink and urinate like me.
Any comment on that ?!!

No Pirate I am not calling Jesus a liar I am just really suspicious about those verses not about the worthiness of Jesus ..I love Jesus but as a prophet not as a God.

To GFC ..When you say God is one but 3 sounds like 1+1+1=1
and that son does not have a separate identity ?!!!

To Patrica ..now you are saying that Jesus is ONLY His son..I didn't write what I wrote until I made sure that it was written in the bible that Jesus is God and son of God in the same time.

As for being held accountable Patrica God knows which of us will be held accountable the one who rejected the truth and worshiped Jesus or the other one

Well, Jesus never said He was God. He spoke of God as "the Father" and He spoke of Himself as the Son. Only once did He say "The Father and I are One", but I believe the correct context is that He's saying in modern terms "The Father and I agree" or "We both are on the same side of this issue".
However, if you go back and read through the gospels again, look for how many times other people said "surely You are the Christ" or "truly You are God".
Hence, the confusion for some. Jesus never said it, but everyone around Him did.

Just like all religions, it as made up. However, it does point out that Mohamed had no clue about Christian teachings, and by asserting that Jesus was a prophet and not either the Son of God or God incarnate, calls Jesus a liar and therefore not worthy to be a prophet. Yet another inconsistency in religion.

Y'shua HaMaschiach (Jesus) is the Son of God. He is a Hebrew man (human) born of human parents (Joseph and Mary). He carries the lineage of Abraham and King David through His Jewish father. He is NOT God in the flesh. The Bible never says that He is God. And, He never claims to be God.
The 'Christian' Jesus doesn't line up with the Old Testament's prophesies of who the Messiah really is. This is also partly the reason that Jews may find the Christ-Catholic version of Messiah laughable. Many people see Christians as worshiping 'another' god.
Jews know the Tanakh ('Old' Testament). All things in the Newer Testament must be verified through the Older Testament. This is what Paul was telling us in the Bible about the Bereans (Acts 17:10-12). What book do Christians think the Bereans were reading to verify what Paul was teaching?
Jesus is not a pagan semi-human demigod. The trinity is a theory of Babylonian origin.

God exists in three forms. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

Jesus is the Son of God, sent through man to die for you and all so that you "May be saved. Jesus was killed and risen and they refer to Him as God the Father God the Son and the Holy Spirit, But no where have I read where Jesus says He is God you are all confused. Before you read the Holy Bible ask the Lord to let you understand what it is you are reading .Before you start to read, it is one of the many gifts he gives to us all Who' ask". No one can ask this for you but you.And any one who reads His wisdom of the Bible and don't ask their is no" way they will fully understand His wisdom.You all will be like Paul in 1st Corinthians if you don't ask.then you will confuse many others that you will be held accountable for.

They are human terms to attempt to express the truth of Jesus.
He is God first and foremost. He is the begotten Son of God as a role He took on when He humbled Himself to become a man.
Luke 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life."
Jesus is the human form of God. He walked the earth sinless and came to die for our sins. If we are Christ followers we should be trying to walk the way Jesus did---what could we possibly lose by being imitators of God.

Jesus is God the Son. He is the second of the trinity, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. It is kind of like water. You have water, ice, and steam. It all is water but with different forms and functions, so is the trinity. They are all God but each have a different function.

Where in the Word of God does Jesus claim he is God, where in the Word of God does Jesus claim to be the Son of God.
Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world,
Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
John 10:34-38
We called them Gods, the same as we called "I am that I am" God, who is the devil (Satan, the serpent, the dragon), but we called him God, or correctly Moses did and we believed Moses.

There is only one God. God has three coequel essences: Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Each essence has different funcions.
God was not created or made, he allways was. God is eternal meaning that He is beyond time.
