Since you agree with Sharp's rule please read slowly.
Granville Sharp's rule states that when you have two nouns, which are not proper names (such as Cephas, or Paul, or Timothy), which are describing a person, and the two nouns are connected by the word "and," and the first noun has the article ("the") while the second does not, *both nouns are referring to the same person*. In our texts, this is demonstrated by the words "God" and "Savior" in 2 Peter 1:1. "God" has the article, it is followed by the word for "and," and the word "Savior" does not have the article. Hence, both nouns are being applied to the same person, Jesus Christ. This rule is exceptionless. One must argue solely on theological grounds against these passages. There is truly no real grammatical objection that can be raised.
Same applies to Titus 2:13
Let me help you out more.
the words "God" and "Savior" in 2 Peter 1:1. "God" has the article, it is followed by the word for "and," and the word "Savior" does not have the article. Hence, both nouns are being applied to the same person, Jesus Christ.
Paul very clear that Jesus is God. Now if you do not agree post a coherent response vs cheap opinions.
LOL, this is common with trins, for you think that if you have a few scriptures that unto you are saying that Jesus raised himself from the dead, that this balances the scales for you to ignore other scriptures that reveals otherwise but God's truth is never determined by a preponderance of evidence like that anyhow.Your argument hangs on the tense of one word in one verse that can be spun. My argument hangs on multiple verses the fully support it.
Your argument = passive voice verb translated 'raised'
vs
According to the whole of Scripture who raised Jesus from the dead?
Romans 6:4 teaches that the Father raised Jesus from the dead.
John 2:19-21; 10:17,18 proclaims the Son raised Himself from the dead.
Romans 8:11 proclaims the Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead.
And Acts 3:26, 13:30, 17:30,31; 1 Thess. 1:9,10; Heb. 13:20 reveals that only God could raise Jesus from the dead.
Therefore the whole of Scripture reveals the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit in unity as God was responsible for raising Jesus
from the dead. You cannot refute this.
The reason why it cannot be, is because the other passages that you might believe support your doctrine can also be misinterpreted by you also
Furthermore, you only have two scriptures out of many others that you think are saying that Jesus raised himself from the dead to start with.
While on the other hand and after John 2:19 is stated, John uses that passive voice verb risen and none of his other disciples in their narratives ever state that Jesus raised himself from the dead and which would also be odd, if they truly understood Jesus in John 2:19 to be saying that he would literally restore his own life into his own body after he died.
Therefore, you can re copy and paste those verses above all you want, but you will never remove the passive voice verb "risen" from John 2:22, nor will you remove the fact that none of his other disciples in their narratives ever wrote that Jesus resurrected himself and nor will you remove the word "commandment or order" from John 10:17-18 either.
So now that we have covered this newer argument, I am finished giving you time to practice on the articulation of your false doctrines, so go find someone else to practice it on, for I have repair work being done on my roof, facia and soffit that I need to attend to and don't have time for you and your bias nonsense.
