brocab: Now I see you are a JW, had you notice, the scripture says no-one had seen God at anytime, because God is Spirit, and His Spirit the Holy Spirit was in Christ and Christ in the Father at the same time. I" and the Father are one.. Those who believe in Christ, are connected to Him in Word and in truth. We preach what, Jesus preached. Have you actually read {John 17:3-8} Verse 5 and now O Father glorify Me with Yourself, with the Glory I had with You before the world was. Have you not read {Isaiah 42:8} I am the Lord that is My name, and My Glory will I not give to another. And Jesus is praying this to the Father, Glorify Me with Yourself, like I was before time began. Now I see you are a JW, had you notice, the scripture says no-one had seen God at anytime, because(God is Spirit, and His Spirit the Holy Spirit was in Christ and Christ in the Father at the same time.)

[quote author=Crysthaniel post=62986673]Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. ( John 5:18; 10:30-33 ) However, Jesus never claimed to be on the same level as Almighty God. He said: “The Father is greater than I am.”— John 14:28 . Jesus never called him self God it's the scribes and pharises that accused him of him (Jesus saying that he is God) so they plan to kill him
] On his final night as a human, Jesus told his disciples: “If you ask the Father for anything, he will give it to you in my name.” ( John 16:23 ) Jesus thus taught us to pray to the one who is both his Father and our Father, Jehovah God.— John 20:17 . HIS EXAMPLE: In line with the way he taught others to pray, Jesus personally prayed: “I publicly praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth.” ( Luke 10:21 ) On another occasion, “Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: ‘Father, I thank you that you have heard me.’” ( John 11:41 ) And as he was dying, Jesus prayed: “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.” ( Luke 23:46 ) In praying to his heavenly Father—the “Lord of heaven and earth”—Jesus set a clear example for all to follow. ( Matthew 11:25; 26:41, 42; 1 John 2:6 ) Is that how Jesus’ early disciples understood his instructions? TO WHOM DID THE EARLY CHRISTIANS PRAY? Within weeks of Jesus’ return to heaven, his disciples were being harassed and threatened by their opposers. ( Acts 4:18 ) Of course, they reached out in prayer—but to whom did they turn? “They raised their voices with one accord to God,” praying that he would continue helping them “through the name of [his] holy servant Jesus.” ( Acts 4:24, 30 ) So the disciples followed Jesus’ guidelines on prayer. They prayed to God, not to Jesus. Years later, the apostle Paul described the manner in which he and his associates prayed. Writing to fellow Christians, he said: “We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you.” ( Colossians 1:3 ) Paul also wrote to his fellow believers about “always giving thanks to our God and Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” ( Ephesians 5:20 ) From these words, we see that Paul encouraged others to pray to his “God and Father for everything”—but, of course, in Jesus’ name.— Colossians 3:17 . Like the early Christians, we can show our love for Jesus by heeding his advice on prayer. ( John 14:15 ) As we pray to our heavenly Father—and to him alone—the words of Psalm 116:1, 2 will become ever more meaningful to us: “I love Jehovah because he hears my voice . . . I will call on him as long as I live.” * |

you see even the scribes and pharises can never take it from Jesus to be God.. It is not possible so they lied that he claimed to be God so that gives them the fake reason why they want to kill Jesus.. |

brocab: This is always the same old argument with JW's, they are not of Us, nor do they preach the Word of God to be one of Us. {John 17:21} I am not asking on behalf of them alone, but also on behalf of those who will believe in Me, through their message. That all of them maybe one, as You Father are in Me and "I" in You, May they also be in Us, so the world may believe that You sent Me. Question: "Is Jesus God? Did Jesus ever claim to be God?" Answer: The Bible never records Jesus saying the precise words, “I am God.” That does not mean, however, that He did not proclaim that He is God. Take for example Jesus’ words in {John 10:30} “I and the Father are one.” We need only to look at the Jews’ reaction to His statement to know He was claiming to be God. They tried to stone Him for this very reason: “You, a mere man, claim to be God” (John 10:33). The Jews understood exactly what Jesus was claiming—deity. When Jesus declared, “I and the Father are one,” He was saying that He and the Father are of one nature and essence. {John 8:58} is another example. Jesus declared, “I tell you the truth … before Abraham was born, I am!” Jews who heard this statement responded by taking up stones to kill Him for blasphemy, as the Mosaic Law commanded (Leviticus 24:16). John reiterates the concept of Jesus’ deity: “The Word [Jesus] was God” and “the Word became flesh” (John 1:1, 14) These verses clearly indicate that Jesus is God in the flesh. {Acts 20:28} tells us, “Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.” Who bought the church with His own blood? Jesus Christ. And this same verse declares that God purchased His church with His own blood. Therefore, Jesus is God! Thomas the disciple declared concerning Jesus, “My Lord and my God” (John 20:28). Jesus does not correct him. {Titus 2:13} encourages us to wait for the coming of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ (see also 2 Peter 1:1). In {Hebrews 1:8} the Father declares of Jesus, “But about the Son he says, ‘Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.’” The Father refers to Jesus as “O God,” indicating that Jesus is indeed God. In Revelation, an angel instructed the apostle John to only worship God (Revelation 19:10) Several times in Scripture Jesus receives worship (Matthew 2:11; 14:33; 28:9, 17; Luke 24:52; John 9:38). He never rebukes people for worshiping Him. If Jesus were not God, He would have told people to not worship Him, just as the angel in Revelation did. There are many other passages of Scripture that argue for Jesus’ deity. The most important reason that Jesus has to be God is that, if He is not God, His death would not have been sufficient to pay the penalty for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2) A created being, which Jesus would be if He were not God, could not pay the infinite penalty required for sin against an infinite God. Only God could pay such an infinite penalty. Only God could take on the sins of the world (2 Corinthians 5:21) die, and be resurrected, proving His victory over sin and death. Jesus’ early followers did not view him as being equal to Almighty God. For example, the apostle Paul wrote that after Jesus was resurrected, God “exalted him [Jesus] to a superior position.” Obviously, Paul did not believe that Jesus was Almighty God. Otherwise, how could God exalt Jesus to a superior position? —Philippians 2:9 . |

johnw74: More facts people should know about the antichrist jehovahs witnesses sect.
false jw say the Word Jesus Christ is not God, the Holy Spirit is not God
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Psa 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
Joh 1:3 All things were made by him(the Word); and without him(the Word) was not any thing made that was made.
God created = the Spirit of God moved = by the word of the LORD = by His breath(Spirit) = him(the Word) The Word of God is the Spirit of God, He is the Holy Spirit
God(Father and Son) is a Spirit Joh_4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
God and the Word is the Holy Spirit Joh_14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
God and the Word is God Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. if Jesus now Is the God , why did he pray everytime he wanted to perform the miracles.. Especially the one of Lazarus?? Jesus truly say his motives for praying before he say words to Lazarus John 11:41-42 he wanted all to know that he is not the one doing the works that there is a father greater than him in the heaven who has sent him to the earth.
