I just want to see what everyone thinks... Quoting: natalie John 8:24 - "I said therefore to you, that you shall die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins." John 8:58 - "Jesus said to them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.'" John 20:28 - "Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!" Col. 2:9 - "For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form." |

Jesus was a incarnated being on Earth to explain us that principale. I have no freaking idea where they get the holy spirit out of this but I guess it's the connection to divinity. You are a christ in the making. |

Good thing I like Jesus teaching and trash the rest. God has many names. Perhaps I should say titles. Jesus is like his human version of himself. Born of a human virgin lady. However, God has many forms. Who did job, Jacob, or Abraham see if God the spirit is invisible? |

christian Suited up and Armored in Christ! User ID: 44720951 United States 08/27/2013 10:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Believers are His Servants This is the practical starting point for all who worship Jesus as Lord and Savior--they are his servants. Paul’s expression, “a bond-servant of Jesus Christ,” is the equivalent of the Old Testament’s “servant of the LORD [Yahweh],” because to Paul they are one and the same person. This is the highest title that any human could have: Moses, David, Paul--they are all the servants of the LORD. The word for LORD in the Old Testament is the revealed name Yahweh, explained by God to Moses as “I AM.”1 The explanation “I am” is the Hebrew word ‘ehyeh (pronounced eh-yeh); the name Yahweh is actually the third person form of the verb and would translate “He is.” Worshipers declare, “He is!” But God explains that it means “I am.” Paul is simply identifying Jesus as this Yahweh of the Old Testament, which is why he calls himself his servant. The term “servant” also needs some clarification. Unlike today, a servant in those days would actually be owned by the master. He, his family, his possessions, all belonged to the master. Likewise, anyone who is the servant of the LORD, or as Paul puts it, a bond slave of Jesus Christ, no longer is his or her own; they have been bought with a price, the blood of Jesus, and are now under his absolute authority. If Jesus were just a good man, a great teacher, no such authority would be expected. But because he is God the Son, we owe him our lives. This is why in the book Paul will say that if we confess with our mouth that Jesus is LORD (=Yahweh) and believe in our hearts that God has raised him from the dead, we shall be saved” (Rom. 10:9).

If the son doesn't know, but the father does, then the son and the father cannot be the same. Then take Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli,[a] lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”) It does not follow that they be the same. |

Us, as in plural.

Joel 2:28; Luke 1:67; John 7:39; Acts 2:17; Hebrews 1: 5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father”? Or again, “I will be his Father, and he will be my Son”? 6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” 7 In speaking of the angels he says, “He makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.” 8 But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom. 9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.” 10 He also says, “In the beginning, Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 11 They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. 12 You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end.” 13 To which of the angels did God ever say, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”? 14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? |
