| Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 2:44pm On Jan 09 |
If Jesus is both fully God and fully human, then who truly died on the cross? -If Jesus is God, and God is eternal and immortal, how can God die? -If Jesus died only in his human nature (the flesh), but his divine nature remains alive, can we say Jesus truly died? -When Christians say "Jesus died," are they referring to the death of a human person, a divine person, or both? -How can the death of Jesus be complete and real if one nature (divine) is immortal and the other (human) is mortal? -Does the statement "God died on the cross" mean God ceased to exist, or is it a metaphorical expression? -How can Christian reconcile the claim that "Jesus died" with the doctrine that God cannot die? |

Even you a tripartite being will die one day and when it happens, only your body dies, your soul and spirit are immortal they don't die. The subject of Christ deity is a stumbling block and a rock of offense that will send many 'intelligent people' to hell. He said in John 8:24 KJV I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. |

AntiChristian:For some with the moniker "Antichristian" You seem so deeply interested in Christian theology. Just look for a church that has bible study groups. |

Dying and coming back to Life is also an example of "a cannot die"! AntiChristian: |

godliman:This is where it gets super complex. Jesus is a man God hermaphroditic being. The human part will further be divided into body, soul and spirit. The God part too will exist separately probably with another division. And you said when I die only my body dies. Bodies alone don't die. People die. Death is the total loss of bodily functions. Jesus died. Not Jesus's body died. Even if Jesus had a God part, he died. |

Dtruthspeaker:Once dead you can't say you've never died. For example, you are not yet dead. Jesus has already died even for once, he had tasted death unlike you. Has the father died before? Has the spirit died before? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 5:23am On Jan 10 |
AntiChristian:That is not True. A person who dies and re-lives again is also one who can never die. Exactly how people say if you can survive Nigerian universities you can survive anything. The odeshi power. Not, to talk of the fact that Jesus never died again after that. And is never going to do it again. And that is why even though I must die, I will also must Live, just like Jesus because He is in full and absolute control of death. Especially as we see, He even then kills death by throwing it, into the fire. That is clear proof that He is super greater than death |

Dtruthspeaker:You are not making sense! Your Jesus has once died! So you that is yet to die is even superior to him in that regard! Death conquered him even once! Jesus died! Even if he rose, he did die! He was once a victim of death! |

AntiChristian:As I said, only you Muslims think twistedly. Instead of connecting phone charger to a phone, you'll connect it to electric kettle then say it is not working. "Once died" means you admit that He Lives and He is Living. Which means that He has conquered death. But only a Muslim will think that a person who has not written an exam (death) is superior to the one who has written it and passed it. Do you see now that your reasoning faculty is filled with viruses that do not make you reason well? You do not have the reasoning capacity to attack Christianity, so you are just showing that Muslims heads are damaygd |

Dtruthspeaker:The one with a damaged head is clear. Your Bible says Jesus died for three days and three nights! This simply means the Godhead lost one person for three days! And you keep repeating yourself like a broken record! |

AntiChristian:-If Jesus is God, and God is eternal and immortal, how can God die? Jesus Died as a human(Flesh), and rose as a spirit(God). God IS eternal as by rising from the dead, he conquered death. -If Jesus died only in his human nature (the flesh), but his divine nature remains alive, can we say Jesus truly died? Death only apply to mortals(Flesh), not immortals(Spirit). There is no such thing as death in eternity. -When Christians say "Jesus died," are they referring to the death of a human person, a divine person, or both? As stated before, death only exist in the mortal world. Not the divine world thus "Jesus died" is simply a death of the flesh -How can the death of Jesus be complete and real if one nature (divine) is immortal and the other (human) is mortal? You seriously have to understand that the laws of the physical world does not apply to the divine. Do you know what it means to be eternal? beyond space and time? immeasurable?. -Does the statement "God died on the cross" mean God ceased to exist, or is it a metaphorical expression? God did NOT die on the cross!!! Jesus did. And by death he simply left his physical body(Flesh) to unite with God the Father Period! -How can Christian reconcile the claim that "Jesus died" with the doctrine that God cannot die? I believe with the details provided above, you should be smart enough to answer this. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 10:53am On Jan 10 |
Ebus03:You tried! Your claim simply means Jesus was God and human at the same time so he couldn't die in the first place! |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 4:11pm On Jan 10 |
AntiChristian:If your head was not touching you would know that you are the one repeating yourself after all, that is what "died" means. Then, your the addition of "Godhead" is testament your plugs are misfiring else you would have remembered that this was not in your last post here. And it is because you real eyes that once again you cannot reasonably counter my response, is why you are leaking oil. As I said earlier, you do not have the faculty to attack Christianity, |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 5:18pm On Jan 15 |
Dtruthspeaker:Jesus died while it remains the father and the Holy Spirit. 2 out of 3 Gods remains for three days and three nights! |

AntiChristian:1. Jesus Christ of Israel died on the cross; there is no hard and fast rule that the essence of YHWH(God of Israel) cannot present itself in human form through the human creation system that YHWH(God of Israel) built, and experience, too, the death that YHWH(God of Israel) prescribed for mankind. 🥱🥱🥱 Allah may have such limitations, but YHWH(God of Israel)never suggested such limitations to His Power. 🥱🥱🥱 2. What is it about the human death as described in Genesis 3 vs 19-24 leads you to believe that such could never be experience to any essence belonging to YHWH in human dimensions? 🥱 3. Well, human death is not eternal death, and it stipulates th when death occurs, no longer is the man temporarily animated by the breath of life(eternal life of YHWH) - Genesis 3 vs 19-24. What this insinuates is that when Jesus Christ of Israel took His last breath as a man on the cross, He ceased to be temporarily animated by the breath of life designated to animate all humans— He was unplugged from it—, and was hooked back onto His eternal Life, which we are made to understand He had before taking on the human form. 🥱🥱 4. I don't subscribe to Christian hogwash. I know from what is written in the books that He did die like you and I will eventually die at the end of the day. That much is confirmed in all 4 Gospels.🥱🥱 5. Again, human death is as defined in Genesis 3 vs 19-24. And the key here is the termination of the breath of life, which temporarily animates the human(from dust you were made and to dust you return happens over an extended period without a breath to animate the man, as we all know). Any other idea of human death you have is meaningless since the only one that applies and the entire book works with is the one that is defined in Genesis 3 vs 19-24. 🥱🥱 6. Jesus Christ of Israel died on the cross, and this was confirmed by the accounts of His followers. His human experience(the temporary human life he had —birth to death — ended when he took his last breath on the cross.🥱🥱 7. Again, I cannot speak for any of you religious folks. 🥱🥱 |

AntiChristian:Our Lord Jesus died as a man and not as God. In addition, he didn't function on earth as God. He left his divinity behind and took up our human nature to save mankind. But he also didn't forget his divine origin. He knew he was the Son of God but clothed with human nature. He died for all mankind including you. Why not accept the free gift of salvation which is in Christ alone and save yourself from eternal condemnation. John 3:16-18 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. |

Ken4Christ:You didn't say anything new. God never dies! Humans die! Are you saying Jesus became 100% human only? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Ken4Christ: 6:41am On Jan 16 |
AntiChristian:He was 100% human for the sake of our sins but he didn't lose his divinity status. He only died after the Father laid our sins upon him. Otherwise, it wasn't possible for him to die. His gene was an indestructible gene. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 8:49am On Jan 16 |
Ken4Christ:Why is Christianity so ambiguous? Is there no one who can give a clear, unambiguous answer? You are still claiming Jesus is 100% man and still divine at the same time! When he died did Jesus thoroughly die or not? If he died then all of him died whether divine or human! Then we can say there remains only the father and the Spirit alive! Otherwise, Jesus never truly died! He was just living somewhere in the divine! |

| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Ken4Christ: 1:25pm On Jan 16 |
AntiChristian:The moment he was made sin, he became mortal and he died. He put aside his divinity to redeem mankind bank to God. And you are included in the redemption plan. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by sonmvayina(m): 2:21pm On Jan 16 |
Ken4Christ:so you saying it is just jesus the man that died and Jesus the God was somewhere else. First question, when did God say he needed a human sacrifice before he can forgive sin? last time I checked, this was what he said in 2nd chronicles 7:14. "if my people will humble themselves and confess their sins and forsake their evil ways, I will hear from heave , forgive their sins and heal their land........ which God planned for Jesus to come and die, and which God is his father.. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 2:28pm On Jan 16 |
AntiChristian:First, Off Point. Did you not read that died means "sleeping" like Samuel and Lazarus? Therefore, it means He was alive somewhere else. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 2:35pm On Jan 16 |
Dtruthspeaker:So when you die you wake up elsewhere? Please where do you wake up when you die? Where does death means sleeping? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by sonmvayina(m): 2:40pm On Jan 16 |
Dtruthspeaker:what was the "sacrifice"? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 2:44pm On Jan 16 |
sonmvayina:To be murdered and to "sleep" before his time on earth is completed. |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 2:48pm On Jan 16 |
AntiChristian:What else is life, after death? And what else is "gone to their rest"? And what else is "the dead will waken"? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 2:52pm On Jan 16 |
Dtruthspeaker:Death is the ceasation of life. The stop of one's existence on earth! At death all bodily functions stops functioning! When you sleep on the other hand, you are not dead yet! Most bodily organs slows down a bit! |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by AntiChristian(op): 2:53pm On Jan 16 |
Ken4Christ:In clear terms, your Jesus that came to the world was 100% mortal and 0% divine? |
| Re: Unanswerable Question On The Death Of Jesus! by Dtruthspeaker: 3:08pm On Jan 16 |
AntiChristian:Thank God even you said "on earth". Death is only a ceasation of living on Earth, like forceful eviction. And just like eviction, It does not mean you do not go on living. You are only living somewhere else based on forced relocation. And, when Samuel and Lazarus were said to be sleeping, the earth showed that they had since died |
