Queenisha:

The reference I made to turning water into wine was just to say that we can never understand fully how miracles occur.
And in the same way cannot understand God and his ways fully.
His ways are higher than our ways says the Bible.
God can do all things including coming down as man to save man.

I already answered you that Christ was 100% man so he felt pain and cried.
When God decided to come down and reconcile man to himself,he did not forfeit his Godly attributes.

yes i agree wt u,but dis time it was his son he sent to come down and save the world,john 3:16 clearly stated it osisi

if God comes down as God ,tell me who he will be praying to

if God was d one dat came down to save d world,who will he be calling----------father why have thou forsaken me?

God is a being of his own,dat needs nobodys recommendation before he does watever he wants to do

jesus asked and craved for God every minute of d day while on earth,and weneva he talked he always uses ------"my father" ,  "in my fathers house"

haba hes words were eli eli ma'ma sabachthani ----meaning my God my God y have thou forsaken me

36Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

37If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.

By common confession, the secret of our godly worship is great: In flesh was he revealed to sight, kept righteous by the Spirit's might, adored by angels singing. To nations was he manifest, believing souls found peace and rest, our Lord in heaven reigning!

1 John 5: 5-7

5: Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

6: This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

7: For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost: and these three are ONE.


JESUS IS GOD.

Would you like me to use the scriptures to elucidate further on Verse 5? wink

I thought I answered you already.
The scriptures I quoted of the claims Jesus made of himself are right there in your own Bible.
He felt pain because he was 100% human and in his human nature cried out to God who is not human.
[b]Like I said,it is a mystery and so the Bible says.[/b]I am not here to win an argument but to support my claim with scriptures of who the Bible says Christ is and what he says of himself.
That is enough for me.
I'm unable to throw those claims in the dumpster because I'm wondering how God cried out to God.
I might as well wonder how a virgin gave birth to a son since I'm yet to see this in all my years.

Good.

1 John 5: 5


5: Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

a. Are you an overcomer?

b. Do you believe Jesus is the Son of God?

c. Have you read from the scripture that: And we overcame him (devil) by the blood of the lamb (JESUS) and the word of our testimony?

Now Verse 6 of 1 John 5:

6: This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.


We overcame the world through our Savior Jesus Christ by the redemption power of the BLOOD which HE shed, by coming to the earth in flesh and blood as a human like you and I.

I like your point of argument. However, I have an additional question sequel to that which I asked earlier on, and you have not answered.

d. What brought about the fall of Lucifer in the beginning?

Lucifer thought it wise to be like God.

Ordinarily that singular thought from a Spirit God-head as Lucifer brought about his down-fall. Now Jesus Christ himself when he was here on earth said, he is the way, the truth and the life. No one can come unto the Father except through HIM. Jesus said, I and my Father are one.

Logically speaking, do you not think God should have done like-wise to Jesus as he did to Lucifer? (I need your answer to this question).

Your question isnt new, Phillip asked the very same question . . . lets see how Christ answered it.

John 14: 7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

There is only ONE way the disciples could have seen the FATHER, either He was Jesus Christ or Christ was LYING about them having seen Him.

Still not satisfied, brother philip asked yet again for clarification.

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us

Christ answered . . .

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

Haba . . . Philip asked for THE FATHER and Christ was asking "hast thou not known ME"? He goes on further to make it plain . . . "he that hath seen ME hath seen the FATHER" . . . now how is that possible unless Jesus Himself was THE FATHER?
Re: Is Jesus God? by rampant(f): 4:02pm On Aug 11, 2008
dis will answer ur question

pataki was  lucifer an angel or the son of God?

christ himself was quoting my father,myfather in d bible,he always reverenced his father,d glory of his father he gave to him


lucifer wanted to be a God of his own,wt his own kingdom,whereby watever contract he has wt God will be annulled or canceld,christ never for one day asked for a kingdom of his own(atleast im yet to see it in d bible) and neither did he stop obeying his father
Re: Is Jesus God? by rampant(f): 4:07pm On Aug 11, 2008
@david

you're still going back to square one,all that we have treated

if he was God why was he always praying to God?where have u seen God praying to jesus or himself in d bible?


why was he always telling pple dat hes doing the work of his father that sent him?

im saying this for the upteenth time,he is d root and pathway to get to his father,but he is not d father,before u get to God,what r your confessions?


"i believe u sent your son to die for us"  or is it "God i believed u died for me"

the bibloe recorded it that God himself asked who will go and save d world?everybeing kept quiet,until his son walked up to him ,knelt down  and said  "father send me,i will go"  that son of his ,is our pathway to righteousness but he is not God

All the pundits have not been able to approach what jesus said about not be called good. But its easy for them to go about other verses. If this is the case, whats the condition of the why call me good verse? Its faaulty, false or what?
Re: Is Jesus God? by rampant(f): 4:11pm On Aug 11, 2008
JESUS DENIED DIVINITY
Mark 10:17-18 and Luke 18:18-19
These verses are most indicative of Jesus' position and real nature. The verse in Mark reads:
"As he [Jesus] was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, 'Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?' Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone."
