Hi WJ,We both seem to agree that Jesus is God. I know you are a Trinitarian and I'm a oneness believer at the moment. In Hebrews 1: 8-10, it seems as if the Father is talking to the son. The problem I'm having in believing in the Trinity is how can the Father and the Holy Spirit be 2 seperate persons when the Bible declares that “God is a Spirit”…[Read more]

TonycbI suppose you are a oneness believer as well. Those questions/answers came from David Bernard's Book. I donot agree with all his views. First of all, the Father does have a conversation with the son. Read Hebrews 1 :8-10. Another thing, Jesus was fully man and God. Bernard makes Jesus sound like he has a split personality. Jesus didn't just…[Read more]

To ambassador of Christ,I am currently a oneness believer. But for a few years now I've been studying the oneness/trinity debate. Such scriptures as Hebrews 1:8-10 seem to show more than just one person. On the other hand, I struggle with believing in the trinity, because John 4:24 says ” God is a spirit…..”Yet we can't have the Father and the…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,I agree. John 14:28 says Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. But Jesus also declares in John 10:30 ” I and my Father are one.”

Cato- To address Mark 10:18. Yes, Jesus did receive worship. John 20:28 “And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God.” Jesus didn't decline this praise from Thomas nor Thomas's realization that Jesus is God!

Cato: It is called subjection in the Godhead: Philippians 2:5-8 “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a…[Read more]

You are right, nowhere in the bible does the term ” God the Son ” ever appear. I don't disagree that Jesus is the ” Son of God “. He is both man and God. In other words deity. Hence the scripture Titus 2:13 ” looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,”

You would have a good point except you fail to realize how the “G” in the text of Isaiah 9:6 is written compared to the “g” in Psalm 82:6. Psalm 82:6 “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.” Thus, definition “1” would refer to Psalms 82:6 and definition “4” would refer to Isaiah 9:6. It was written that way for a reason.

Hi Timothy VI,Scripture declares in 1 Timothy 3:16 “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.”

If you were talking to me, ok, your right. 2 Peter 1:20 says, ” Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.” Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting…[Read more]

Consider these scriptures. We have some major problems if Jesus is not God! Isaiah 45:5 “I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:” KJV Isaiah 45:14 “Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto…[Read more]

Jesus was not just flesh, he was God. He was both God and man. John 1:1 says ” In the begining was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God.”Yes, we were created in the image of God. Genesis 1:26. But Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature.” Colossians 1:15Jesus had no sin because his Father was…[Read more]

Yes, 1 Timothy 3:16 also mentions that God was manifested in the flesh. If Jesus is not God, then who is being referred to in this scripture. Also, Hebrews 1:8 also declares that Jesus is God. “But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.” NKJV Verse 9 goes on to say “…[Read more]

Matthew 1:23 reads “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” NKJV I didn't interpret this, it is implied in the context. It talks about a virgin bearing a son. 1 Peter 1:20 “knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation”…[Read more]

Matthew 1:23 says he is.

I was baptised in the Name of Jesus also! Right now I believe in the oneness doctrine, but I am leaning toward the trinity doctrine again. Several scripture seem to support it. The big one I am looking at is Hebrews 1:8.
