Solitechworld:
I know most of your Bible off-hand, I can’t see where Jesus called himself God in all the verses you wrote, maybe you should consider writing it out in full context and verse….

Before then… check this out

The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus” (Acts 3:13).

Peter further said: “God raised up his servant” (Acts 3:26), where the title servant refers to Jesus.


Not only Peter, but the entire group of believers viewed Jesus as God’s servant. When they raised their voices together in prayer to God, in the course of their speaking to God they called Jesus “your holy servant Jesus whom you anointed” (Acts 4:27). They repeated this title also in verse 30. Consistently, Jesus was being called servant of God by the original followers of Jesus.

Some people mistakenly thought that the disciples called Jesus Son of God. An inconsistency of translation actually helped to give this wrong impression. In the King James Bible, the translators call Jesus “Son of God” in Acts 3:13, 26, and “child of God” in Acts 4:27. They simply translated the Greek word paida as “son” or “child”. But the word paida also means “servant”, and the present context demands this translation since the author of Acts is trying in this passage to establish that Jesus is indeed the servant of God.

The translators knew that the Greek word paida means servant. When the same word was used for David in chapter 4, verse 25, they translated it “servant”. Why not call Jesus also by the same title? Or, if they feel that “son” is the correct translation, why not also call David “Son of God”? Jesus and David are both called by the same title in Greek. Why not call them by a same title in English also?

Other translators recognised this inconsistency and corrected it in the modern translations of the Bible. Therefore the New International Version of the Bible and many others call Jesus Servant of God in the verses already quoted above. Nevertheless, the fact that Jesus was God’s servant was so well known that even the King James Bible called him by this title in Matthew 12:18. Referring back to Isaiah 42:1, Matthew identified Jesus as the servant of the one true God Yahweh.

You asked for a verse and I gave you verses, if you are a true seeker of truth with an open mind you'll read those verses thoroughly.
Nevertheless, Jesus as the son of God was many things as He walked the earth.
Mark 10:45 stated that Jesus did not come to be served but to serve and to give His Life as a ransom for many, that makes Him a servant or a minister depending on translation. He also ministered as a prophet, as a teacher,a saviour that is the Messiah and many more that time and space may not permit me to state.
Timothy 3:16 also told us that "without controversy great is the mystery of godliness, God was manifested in the flesh,...",it's a mystery, in whose flesh was God manifested? Jesus of course.
In the beginning was the Word and the word was with God and the Word was God, the same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by Him and WITHOUT Him was not anything made that was made.
In Him was life and the life was the light of men and the light shines in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not......

He was in the world and the world was made by Him and the world knew Him not.....
And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father full of mercy and truth. See John 1 read to the end.
What kind of MAN is this?
Many people are yet to see this light because the god of this world has blinded their minds, least the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. See 2Corithian 4:4
God bless you as you think on this.

These firms should stop playing bad belle politics and face their manufacturing.

Why should they be complaining about exchange rates when we don't use dollar as means of local exchange.

This is only an attempt to frustrate a northern president.

That white man you call Jesus is an idol created by Rome. You do not know the Savior Yahusha HamashiYah.

donnie:
If it didn't matter, why did they bother changing his colour. Let's stop living in denial... We have been lied to.

donnie:
Yes we know, this is your fake Jesus below... the effeminate looking Cesare Borgia. The one that has been used to decieve the whole world. The one who abolished all the laws of YAH, loves everyone and does not punish sin.

The one who makes Christians weak, brainwashed, enslaved humans, always turning the other cheek.

Okoroawusa:
Why would you love me n not make sacrifices for me?


This is the psychology religious leaders use n they r swimming in millions.

Okoroawusa:
You don't love me. That is what you have been taught to say while preaching to someone.


Take a moment n think (it might be hard for you to do);why is that the only thing that humans r willing to freely share with their fellow humans is their God. It's like a competition of "my God is better than your God". It's called ABSOLUTISM n is connected to only three religions in the world (Christianity,Islam n Judaism). Every other religion gives room for the existence of other Gods.


If you truly love me, transfer all the money in your account to mine....If you can't then don't tell me you love me because there is no difference between you n a man that says to a woman,"I love you" just so she can agree to sleep with him.

Xisnin:
Why do you guys like repeating lies from history when most people are too bothered about
surviving than countering fake stories?

I expect you to throw a challenge and feed 5000 people then resurrect after killing yourself,
to prove your faith.

Even your pastors use heavily armed men to protect themselves from kidnappers.
