Jesus prayed to God throughout his human life (Luke 5:16), including the time of his crucifixion.The heavenly Father gave Jesus life. God blesses all intelligent life with free will. Jesus had a will of his own, but as he explained to his disciples, he [...]
Hebrews 7:25, “Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.” Definition: “intercession” the action of intervening on behalf of another. This is an excellent question. The questioner [...]
There is an interesting account found in John 10:31-36 (NRSV), “The Jews took up stones again to stone him. Jesus replied, ‘I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?’ The Jews answered, [...]
Jesus redeemed mankind with His own blood. 1 Peter 1:18-19 (NKJV), “knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold…but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” Thus, Jesus owns the human [...]
When Jesus stated that “I and my Father are one”, he was not implying, as some believe, that Jesus and the Father are one and the same. He could not have meant that, because he also have stated: “That they all may be one; [...]
There is only one Almighty God. Isaiah 46:9, “I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me.” Jesus never said He was God. He always said He was the son of God. He taught “my Father [...]
The trinity has been a highly controversial doctrine for many centuries. If there are three Gods “equal in power and in glory,” as the catechisms declare, then it is untrue to say there is only one God. Yet the Apostle Paul writes, “there is [...]
Yes, it does contradict the trinity. The man, Jesus, died on the cross. Our Father God is everlasting (Isaiah 40:28) and eternal (Deuteronomy 33:27). He cannot die. God and Jesus are two distinct beings. Jesus shows He is one in purpose and spirit with [...]
The following scriptures are used by the apostle John to describe the relationship between God and Jesus: Jesus is called the “only begotten Son” of God in John 1:18, John 3:16, 18, and 1 John 4:9. The most accurate, word-for-word translations of the [...]
When Jesus was with God prior to becoming a human being, he was the Logos or “Word.” He was a perfect spirit being, but not immortal, or of the divine nature. He was the first and only begotten son of God (John 3:16 KJV). The Apostle Paul [...]
(All citations are from the KJV.) Jesus is not God. Matthew 3:17 - God says of Jesus, "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." John 5:30 - Jesus says, "because I seek not mine own will, but the will of [...]
Jesus identifies Himself with the title "the Word" (Logos in the Greek) in John 1:1-2 (KJV) we read: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Unfortunately, these scriptures have been mistranslated and misunderstood. A [...]
The words of the scripture, Matthew 28:19, have been changed from the original. At first, the verse read, “Go ye and make disciples of all the nations in my name, teaching them to observe all things, whatsoever I commanded you.” (Matthew 28:19, 20) [...]
The holy spirit is God’s great power which He uses to accomplish His purposes. In the Old Testament, God used his power to create the world and all the living plants and animals. “And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters,” Genesis 1:2. God also [...]
Jesus is the “only begotten Son of God,” John 3:18. He is “the firstborn of all creation,” Colossians 1:15 (NASB). In the beginning in heaven, God named His son the Word. God is the Almighty Father and He is the designer and director of [...]
The term/noun “Godhead” (Romans 1:20; Colossians 2:9) was introduced by John Wycliffe when he translated the Bible into English (1395). John Tyndale in his latter translation (1525) used “Godhead” in Acts 17:29, Romans 1:20 and Colossians 2:9. The Greek text, however, contains three slightly [...]
God wanted to assure Moses and Israel that God would become what they would need Him to become. In using the words “I AM THAT I AM,” God used an expression to reveal to Moses a promise and pledge found in His name. [...]
Jesus is not God. Jesus is the Son of God. When the angel told Mary that she would bear Jesus, the angel explained that the child would be the Son of God. Luke 1:35 (NASB), "The angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit [...]
There are no scriptures that state that Jesus is God. There are only scriptures which are interpreted as saying Jesus is God. The scriptures teach that “to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and [...]
The question sounds mythological, because it does not distinguish between the fact that Jesus Christ was a man on earth and was a spirit being in his prehuman existence. The Bible never teaches that the Man Jesus had a double nature, human and spirit [...]
