Who Will Return To Judge And Save Mankind , Is It GOD Or Is It JESUS ? by Nobody: 6:45pm On Jan 10, 2015
Note : I very honestly have NO evil motive for this article other then to dig deep with my brethren and friends and find the absolute truth, so please do not berate me for raising this dilemma on a public forum.

Problem ;
In most books of the bible it says that Yahweh himself will return to judge and save Mankind but in the New Testament it says Jesus will return and he will return to judge and save Mankind, so who is it, God or Jesus ?

Please : I have replaced Lord or God with Yahweh wherever the Hebrew translation corresponds accordingly


Let us start with the Old Testament examples ;

Psalm 96:13
Let all creation rejoice before Yahweh, for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in his faithfulness.


Isaiah 66:15
"See, Yahweh is coming with fire,
and his chariots are like a whirlwind;
he will bring down his anger with fury,
and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For with fire and with his sword
Yahweh will execute judgment on all people,
and many will be those slain by the Lord."

Psalm 50:3
"…Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, Yahweh has shone forth. May our Yahweh come and not keep silence; Fire devours before Him, And it is very tempestuous around Him. He summons the heavens above, And the earth, to judge His people:…" -

Zechariah 14:3-5
Then Yahweh will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle. 4 On that day Yahweh's feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. You will flee by my mountain valley, for it will extend to Azel. You will flee as you fled from the earthquake[a] in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then Yahweh my God will come, and all the holy ones with him.


Isaiah 45:22
"Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other."


It is clear from the scripture above that ;

1. Yahweh himself is coming.
2. Yahweh is coming with his holy ones
2. Yahweh will judge
3. Yahweh will destroy the wicked
4. Yahweh will save.




New Testament Examples ;

2 Thessalonians 1:7
and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.

Matthew 16:28
"Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

John 5:22
In addition, the Father judges no one. Instead, he has given the Son absolute authority to judge,

Revelation 1:7
"Look, he is coming with the clouds," and "every eye will see him, even those who pierced him"; and all peoples on earth "will mourn because of him." So shall it be! Amen.

Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved."


Jude 1:14
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,


It is clear from the scripture above that ;

1. Jesus himself is coming.
2. Jesus is coming with his Holy ones
2. Jesus will judge mankind
3. Jesus will destroy sinners
4. Jesus will save.


In the light of these findings, I will like anyone who has an opinion be it for or against and irrespective of belief to help us solve this conundrum

- Who is coming to save mankind
- Who is coming to judge
- Who is coming to destroy sinners
- Who is coming with his holy ones

Frosbel,

I do not mean to derail thread.

I also want an explanation to this verse of scriptures in the book of Hebrews.

"For it is appointed unto man once to die and after death judgement".

People say once a man dies,judgement follows immediately.If he dies in christ he proceeds to heaven.If

he dies without christ,he is on an expressway to hell.They use the richman and lazarus to draw their analogy.

Jesus Christ is Israel's Yahweh.
With this I believe the two positions are reconciled.

- Who is coming to save mankind
- Who is coming to judge
- Who is coming to destroy sinners
- Who is coming with his holy ones

only God, whose name is Yahweh or the unpronounceable word YHWH, can do an Agent Smith of Himself, like done in the Matrix
and be God the Father, God the Son (i.e. Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit simultaneously and/or concurrently
- only God can be in two places at the same time. frosbel doesnt believe He can
- only God can lay down His life and pick it up again. frosbel doesnt believe He can
- only God can do the mind boggling miraculous virgin birth. frosbel doesnt believe He can too on this one


Two Agent Smiths

I solemnly urge you in the presence of God and Christ Jesus,
who will someday judge the living and the dead when he appears to set up his Kingdom:

- 2 Timothy 4:1 NLT

And now the prize awaits me--the crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return.
And the prize is not just for me
but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing

- 2 Timothy 4:8 NLT

Yes, and the Lord will deliver me from every evil attack
and will bring me safely into his heavenly Kingdom.
All glory to God forever and ever! Amen

- 2 Timothy 4:18 NLT

Remind everyone about these things,
and command them in God's presence to stop fighting over words.
Such arguments are useless, and they can ruin those who hear them.

2 Timothy 2:14 NLT

Yes, each of us will give a personal account to God.
- Romans 14:12 NLT

the same shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
- 1 Peter 4:5 Jubilee Bible 2000

Ghost Writing ? Not sure what you are trying to insinuate, but snide remarks apart ;

If Jesus is appointed by God to judge how do we reconcile this position to - John 8:15 , Hebrews 13:4 and Revelation 20:11,12.

Before you rush to play another game of words, in almost all cases, 'judge' in the NT is the Greek word κρίνω ( pronounced krinó and strongs - 2919 ) which actually means judge as in judge with the ability to make verdicts / cheesy
Re: Who Will Return To Judge And Save Mankind , Is It GOD Or Is It JESUS ? by leke12(m): 9:40pm On Jan 10, 2015
Sorry to disappoint you! Nobody is coming to judge the world. When you die, that's d day of ur judgment. You either go to heaven or hell. You knw pple who have near death experience always see micheal jackson, they neva see Adolf hitler or idi Amin.Lol! All these story about mount olive or chariots or any are such are pigments of man imagination. The jews did a great work to cook up those stories. Futhermore, yahweh is d name of d god worshiped by abraham and his clan before he left his family and imagine why will yahweh use chariot or horse when we have fighter jets and armoured cars for war. Using chariot is becos that's was d highest tech they use for war, so they think God wil come and use a more beta one. Lol

I think, I've figured out what the stumbling block is (i.e. what you're finding hard to swallow and stomach).
This is why I've reproduced the 3 verses above.

Problem ;
In most books of the bible it says that Yahweh himself will return to judge and save Mankind but in the New Testament it says Jesus will return and he will return to judge and save Mankind, so who is it, God or Jesus?

I want to comment because of your first statement, so if truly you want to find the truth then you have only one option to choose from my conclusion.

Firstly, you got it wrong for calling it A PROBLEM it's not a problem but how Yahweh actually operates.

Secondly, thank God that you open this thread yourself and you're the very one who believe Jesus is not God but this thread should open your eyes to see perfect collaboration between Yahweh and the man Jesus Christ.

Thirdly, this would've posed a lot of problem for the standard of Biblical teaching if Jesus is not YAHWEH IN THE FLESH.
Now from the Old Testament books you quoted stating that Yahweh is coming to judge people I think the best question to ask here is how will Yahweh carry out this action? Since both statement agree that Yahweh will COME HIMSELF then the next question to ask is Will Yahweh come absolutely as God (when Universe itself can not contain Him talk less of Earth) or in what actual form will He come?

Very importantly the testimony we have in the inspired word of God who can not lie is that THE MAN JESUS is Yahweh in the FLESH to judge people which means Yahweh didn't come in His totality of His majesty as God but simply took on HUMAN FLESH to fulfil His promise that's why Jesus Christ Himself can say "22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him." John 5:22-23

Lastly, had it been you pay close attention to what you read in the Bible you would've discovered that Yahweh spoke about coming in HUMAN FLESH.
According you I will use Yahweh where LORD appeared
"The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the YAHWEH, make straight in the desert a highway for our God(Yahweh)." Isa 40:3
"Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me(Yahweh): and the YAHWEH, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the YAHWEH of hosts. Mal 3:1
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isa 9:6


That's why the coming of Yahweh in the FLESH must not be through a normal sexual intercourse it must be a supernatural process (Miracle) but unfortunately you've denied the Virgin Birth.

Conclusion, Apostle Paul and the rest of the NT writer provided parallel account of Jesus being Yahweh in the flesh in many ways i.e Yahweh and Jesus as the Judge of people, Yahweh and Jesus as the ONLY KING who rules forever, Yahweh and Jesus as the only exalted Being, Yahweh and Jesus as the ONLY Saviour e.t.c

The two options for you to choose now, it's either you embrace the parallel account of these people (including Paul whom you believe in his writing) who put Jesus Christ in the position of Yahweh in the Flesh or you discard the whole NT and you know what happen if you do that.

Shalom!

The revised standard version rendered the last part as "which he purchased with the blood of his own son", and the footnote of many other translations such as the New International Version indicated that it can be translated this way even though they used the one you quoted.

(YAHWEH THE LORD consist of God the Father, Jesus and Holy Ghost) wen YHWH the Father foretold in the old testament about His future judgement on the world He already knew that He will Judge the World thru His Son Jesus who is also Yahweh(God) the Son. He didnt let the ancient people to know how He will judge the world and now the new testament reveals how the judgement will be like and that it will be thru Jesus who is also Yahweh.. The Father hath given all things into His (Jesus) hands and the Father Judgeth no man but has comitted all judgement to the Son. Jesus represents Yahweh God, so for God not to judge the world does not means that He changed His mind no, Jesus is now the all and all. Hope u understand my points?

My Brother, according to your original post .... Its clear the hebrew scriptures said Yahweh will judge the world !! But since Act 17:31 has explained that Yahweh will be the judge , but he will do it through a man he has appointed , whom is Christ . ..... I PERCEIVE THIS IN THE HEBREW SCRIPTURES ,

Yahweh prophesied at Isaiah 11:1 " and there must go forth a twig out of the stump of Jesse; .......... And Upon him the spirit of Yahweh must settle down , and he Will Not Judge by any mere appearance to his eyes , and with righteousness he must judge the lowly ones of the earth " - Isa 11: 1-5

My Brother, according to your original post .... Its clear the hebrew scriptures said Yahweh will judge the world !! But since Act 17:31 has explained that Yahweh will be the judge , but he will do it through a man he has appointed , whom is Christ . ..... I PERCEIVE THIS IN THE HEBREW SCRIPTURES ,

Yahweh prophesied in Isaiah 11:1 " and there must go forth a twig out of the stump of Jesse; .......... And Upon him the spirit of Yahweh must settle down , and he Will Not Judge by any mere appearance to his eyes , and with righteousness he must judge the lowly ones of the earth " - Isa 11: 1-5
So without flowery language but in layman's terms what is the verdict?
Who is returning to judge and save mankind? Is it God or Jesus?

Act 17:31 reveal that Jehovah God Almighty, the God and Father Christ is d person who plans to judge mankind .

His majesty has appointed Jesus Christ his son to overseer the whole work of judgement . So Jesus will be the one to carry out the WILL OF HIS FATHER

After this, Jesus Christ wil report back to His Almighty God And Father

"NEXT, he hands over the Kingdom to his God and Father, when he has brought to nothing all government and all authority and power" 1 cor 15:24
