Why because you cant produce the man that you say is risen and alive?
Oh so now Jesus was not God? You are fickle.
If Jesus was not God and not His son as you never claimed he was, then who do you say he was?
Jesus Christ has been resurrected and ascended into heaven. He is seated at the right hand of God.
Gnostic jibberish.
Jesus Christ is no longer in the grave.
You're off track, headed for a wreck.
I have never said that Jesus Christ is God. You get confused who you are responding to.
You should do your homework before you comment in complete ignorance. Jesus was already dead when Paul came up with the nickname of Christ in place for Christos, which simply means Gods anointed. He came up with that name at Antioch.
Jesus IS the Son of God. He is the Christ, God's human Messiah.
That is because you do not know what it is to be anointed of God yourself is all.
Jesus himself said he was the Christ. The apostles John and Peter said Jesus was the Christ.
I do. I am a Christian, born again of holy spirit.
The reason some cannot relate to Christ, Gods anointed, is because they do not know what it is to be anointed of God themselves.
Just as all His children are. You are not His child to receive that inheritance are you?
Not we, you.
Not we, you, But you can be. He takes away the sins of this world, 1 John 3 but you just won't let Him is all.
Jesus died because of the sins if this world , he became sin by identification with it.
He didnt take your place in death at all, he died in order to reveal the son of God in you and what sin is and left that judgment up to you to work out that salvation from sin, whether you want to be delivered from the sin who had him crucified or not.
He is Lord only if you follow him in his ways in the Lord he obeyed and said sent him. You are being Lord over him, dictating to him who he is, what he can and cannot do.
Good luck, Gary.
There is no luck involved in being Gods son, His Child, that is a choice.
Agreed.
Sure I know who Jesus was and what he accomplished, he was my brother, we have the same Father and the same mind of, and the same works he did we do more.
But it might just be that it is you who is lacking in Gods discernment? I have the mind of Christ, I can relate to who Jesus was we have the same Father, and I can relate to what he did, and the purpose God sent him, for God Himself does the same in us all who will. But few are willing, few who find His way to be like Him and in His same image. That is a good question you should ask of yourself, are you perfect even as your Father in heaven is perfect and in His same image that Gods Himself puts in man, He put that in Jesus in Matt 3:16. You dont believe Matt 3:16 that God came to Jesus by the Spirit He is and opened all of His heaven in that man do you? And the main reason why is from lack of the same in yourself. Is that to true?
Jesus Christ is the savior. You aren't.
Just as with Jesus I can save anyone who will follow me to the same Father as Jesus did who does the saving by His same Spirit of mind. God sent Jesus to do exactly that. read what he said about that very thing. What he said is very very clear, at least to me.
And His Lord was God, the one who was over him and sent him just as Jesus said above. Same Lord over me.
So have we all who are of God, we have received the same inheritance from God Himself. Only because you cant relate to it doesnt men others do not have His almighty Spirit of mind. Perfect even as your Father ion heaven is perfect.
Now you are getting it. I am Gary, but I have from the same mind of my Father and Jesus received from Him., I can do noting at all without Him either, nor could Jesus and said so, nor can you.
