FreeIgboho:So? She was as good as his wife, only without the consummation. God in this case Zeus who is found of virgin girls, went in to her. Just as he did for persius (clash of the Titans) . It's all mythology my brother.....the earlier you accept it, the better for you. God is one indivisible, Omni potent, omnipresent and Omni science ....entity. Not a Jewish man up in the sky. God essence is very very different from that of a man. |

sonmvayina:Very well said @ the bold. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by DeepSight(m): 8:37pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
sonmvayina:Fair enough. But dont you think you should go one step further and discard the whole thing. Because Yahweh as described in the Hebrew Scriptures is a barbaric and murderous psychopathic enity. |

FreeIgboho:I did one last year. I am going to do one this year again. God only accepts animal sacrifice....NEVER a HUMAN BEING.it is an abomination in his sight. |

DeepSight:Noooohe is not....lol The Torah is the most beautiful peace of literature I have ever beheld. If you understand it, you will fall In love with it. It is about going from ignorance(slavery in Egypt) to self awareness (promised land) by getting rid of our ego. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by DeepSight(m): 9:06pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
sonmvayina:This is an attempt to put a Buddhist spin on it which is not inherent in the text. Surely, I dont need to list all the barbaric acts of Yahweh in the Hebrew Scripture before you understand what I am saying? |

sonmvayina:I showed where Prophets like Isaiah said such. Was Hezekiah ever called "Everlasting father, Prince of Peace, etc? |

FreeIgboho:His case is not new. He has become a familiar case😂 —So, we are not surprised. He goes about ranting about Marduk, Enki, Enlil among others. Let him be, it's extremely futile conversing with him. |

| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by FreeIgboho(op): 10:27pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
DeepSight:That's exactly what he said - certain things were modulated due to "hardness of your hearts," and was not God's plan from the beginning |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by FreeIgboho(op): 10:30pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
DeepSight:WHERE DID I SAY THA?? Again, I've NEVER said I definitely knew what God can and cannot do! |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by DeepSight(m): 11:02pm On Aug 06, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:Yet you have definitely said what he can and cannot do many times. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by LordReed(m): 6:58am On Aug 07, 2025 |
sonmvayina:This is actually a good point. The Hebrew myths don't have the god doing anything of such despite their god appearing several times physically or at least sending emissaries bearing the name of the god. It makes sense that this is a syncretic insertion from Greek/Roman mythology. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by sonmvayina(m): 9:43am On Aug 07, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:It is a situational sacrifice, it is for a particular reason. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by sonmvayina(m): 10:14am On Aug 07, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:no, those are titles reserved for the creator. this is what Isaiah wrote, not the miss translation you peddle around 6. For a child has been born to us, a son given to us, and the authority is upon his shoulder, and the wondrous adviser, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, called his name, "the prince of peace." הכִּי־יֶ֣לֶד יֻלַּד־לָ֗נוּ בֵּן נִתַּן־לָ֔נוּ וַתְּהִ֥י הַמִּשְׂרָ֖ה עַל־שִׁכְמ֑וֹ וַיִּקְרָ֨א שְׁמ֜וֹ פֶּ֠לֶא יוֹעֵץ֙ אֵ֣ל גִּבּ֔וֹר אֲבִי־עַ֖ד שַׂר־שָׁלֽוֹם: this is a reference to a future King Hezekiah, who was already born. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by sonmvayina(m): 10:18am On Aug 07, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:they are still part of the worship of Lucifer and her son. only those who has seen through the sham and has woken up know |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by sonmvayina(m): 10:19am On Aug 07, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:i know enough to know that humans give birth to humans and a woman needs a male input to become pregnant. it is just basic science. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by sonmvayina(m): 10:26am On Aug 07, 2025 |
FreeIgboho:the one God gave them the instruction to build in Jerusalem. the real messiah is doing 6 things one of which is buiilkd the third temple and gather the Jews back to their home land. he would be a king over them. that is how we will know he is the messiah, not by signs and wonders. God will do it in his own time. |

LordReed:A very very very very sound point. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by JimRohn: 8:48pm On Aug 21, 2025 |
Your “reasons” collapse once examined. Let’s address them one by one, with clarity and logic. 1️⃣ Prophecies of Jesus in the Old Testament The so-called “prophecies” you refer to are vague and later reinterpreted. Jews themselves — the custodians of the Old Testament — do not read them as predictions of a divine Jesus. If the very nation entrusted with the Torah never saw your “Trinity” in their scripture, your claim is nothing more than retrofitting verses to theology invented centuries later. 2️⃣ John the Baptist’s role John was indeed a great prophet, but even he never said Jesus was God. He called him the Messiah — a human prophet and servant of God. The exaggerated Christian spin that John’s humility somehow proves divinity is a leap of logic. Great prophets always humbled themselves before God’s chosen servants. 3️⃣ The voice at baptism Hearing a “voice from heaven” is not proof of divinity. At Jesus’ baptism, the text itself distinguishes between God (“This is my Son”) and Jesus. If Jesus were literally God, why does another voice need to announce it? This scene shows separation, not unity of essence. Furthermore, the Bible often uses “son of God” metaphorically (e.g., Adam, Israel, David). To seize on this one usage and make it literal for Jesus alone is inconsistent. 4️⃣ Jesus forgiving sins, raising the dead, accepting worship Jesus himself said: “I can do nothing by myself” (John 5:30). Every miracle he performed was by God’s permission. Prophets before him raised the dead (Elijah, Elisha) and performed wonders, yet no one called them God. As for “accepting worship,” the Greek words often translated as “worship” in the Gospels also mean “respect” or “homage.” Bowing before prophets and kings was common in Jewish tradition and never implied divinity. 5️⃣ “His words will never pass away” If that were true, why do we have thousands of conflicting manuscripts, with additions, deletions, and alterations acknowledged by Christian scholars themselves? The Qur’an, not the Bible, is the scripture preserved word for word for over 1,400 years. 6️⃣ Jesus raising himself from the dead If Jesus raised himself, then who raised him? The New Testament itself contradicts you: Acts 2:24 — “But God raised him from the dead.” Acts 3:15 — “You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead.” Romans 10:9 — “…God raised him from the dead.” So did he raise himself, or did God raise him? Your claim is self-contradictory. 7️⃣ Worship after death proves nothing False gods and idols have been worshipped for thousands of years too. The persistence of worship is no evidence of truth. Longevity of belief does not equal divine reality — otherwise you’d have to accept Hindu deities or Pharaoh’s worship as true. 8️⃣ Worshipped “interchangeably with the Father” That’s precisely the problem: polytheism disguised as Christianity. Worshipping the Father and the Son destroys the absolute oneness of God. The very first commandment is clear: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is One” (Mark 12:29). Jesus himself repeated it — but Christians replaced it with later church doctrine. 9️⃣ “The Father blesses the worshippers” God blesses even disbelievers in this life (health, rain, provision). Material or emotional experiences are not proof of doctrinal truth. If blessings proved divinity, then idol-worshippers who prosper would also be worshipping the true God — which you would reject. 🔟 “He is alive and active today” Yes, Jesus is alive — but as a prophet and servant of Allah, awaiting his second coming. His life is no proof of divinity. Many saints, prophets, and martyrs remain alive in the unseen world, but no one calls them God. The bottom line: You have not provided a single explicit, unambiguous statement from Jesus himself saying: “I am God, worship me.” Instead, you stack assumptions, reinterpret verses, and rely on later church theology. Islam’s message remains pure and uncompromised: > “Say: He is Allah, the One. Allah, the Eternal. He neither begets nor is begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (Qur’an 112:1-4) |

JimRohn:Jesus referred to his disciples as his BROTHERS God has never referred to His worshipers as such and in conclusion Jesus said his father is our father and his God is our God! John 20:17 There is only one evidence of pure worship but nobody cares to examine it so only practicers of pure worship knows it, there is no contradiction among them and they are producing the fruit expected of true worshipers of God! |
| Re: Why Jesus Is DEFINITELY God * by JimRohn: 11:53am On Aug 22, 2025 |
MaxInDHouse:Thank you for citing John 20:17 — it actually supports the Islamic position. 1. On John 20:17 Jesus says, “I ascend to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” If Jesus has a God, he is not God. The verse distinguishes between Jesus and God and places both Jesus and the disciples under the same Lord. 2. On calling the disciples “brothers” When Jesus calls believers his “brothers,” it emphasizes his shared humanity, not divinity. Scripture itself explains this: “He is not ashamed to call them brothers” and “he had to be made like his brothers in every respect” (Hebrews 2:11, 2:17). That God does not call humans His “brothers” is precisely because God is utterly unlike creation. Jesus calling humans “brothers” fits a servant-messenger of God, not God Himself. 3. Consistent New Testament pattern Multiple passages echo John 20:17 by showing Jesus worshipping and submitting to God: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (Matthew 27:46; Mark 15:34) “Therefore God, your God, has anointed you.” (Hebrews 1:9) “The name of my God … the city of my God … which comes down out of heaven from my God.” (Revelation 3:12) A being who repeatedly refers to “my God” is not the Almighty; he is a servant of the Almighty. 4. About “pure worship” and “fruits” “Pure worship” must be defined by clear monotheism and the practice of the prophets: direct prayer to the One God alone, no partners, no intermediaries, no images. Organizational uniformity or claimed “fruits” are not proof of truth—many groups show discipline and growth while teaching contradictory doctrines. The sure test is theological clarity and textual integrity. Islam meets that test: uncompromised Tawhid and a preserved revelation, the Qur’an. Bottom line: Your own citation (John 20:17) aligns with Islam: Jesus is a prophet and Messiah who worships God. The side of truth is the side that worships the God of Jesus—not Jesus as God. Return to the pure monotheism every prophet proclaimed: 👆 “Say: He is Allah, the One; Allah, the Absolute. He neither begets nor is begotten; and there is none comparable to Him.” (Qur’an 112:1–4) |
