That would make two equal Gods . Which is proof that you are not thinking.
That response is proof that it is not a Scripturally informed response.
Once again the thieves and robbers, the unbelievers, are again out to kill Jesus, the incarnate LORD, because He healed a man, told him to pick up his cot on a sabbath day, and called God His own Father. John 5:1-17.
“Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.” (Joh 5:18, KJVA)
The response of Jesus is found throughout the rest of chapter five so here is a main point to consider, especially considering the context in which it is found.
“21. For even as the Father raises the dead, and gives life, so also the Son gives life to whomever He wills. 22. For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23. so that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. The one not honoring the Son does not honor the Father who has sent Him. 24. Truly, truly, I say to you, the one who hears My word, and believes the One who has sent Me, has everlasting life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.” (Joh 5:21-24, LITV)
So the sinless one, the Son, who shared with the Father the glory of the one God prior to the creation of anything that has been created, John 17, as God incarnate is still to be honored with the same honor as the Father.
You don't
How does that help your position? God sent his son. Not another equal God. You said Jesus made himself equal to God
God sent his Son, the Word that was with God, and was God, and through whom all things were created. That is why Jesus did not deny the claim of the unbelievers that He is equal to God, the Father.
You are not making any sense . They did not misunderstand his words but they misynderstood the same words?
You have misread Scripture and what I posted. It is one thing to understand that Jesus is the Son of God in a way that all other men are not. And it is another thing to call it blasphemy that Jesus says He is the Son of God in that unique way.
The testimony of Jesus is that he is the son of God.
Which means that being God He shares the one glory and honor of God, see John 17 and John 5 (above).
Stop trying to change the topic
That is another Scripturally uninformed reply because demonstrating the deity of Christ, the incarnate LORD, for all men,
for you, is the genuine faith presented and delivered in the Scriptures.
What you were asked to do was to verify the truth of the interpretive key given by Jesus when He opened the minds of the disciples to understand the Scriptures, the TANAKH or OT. See Luke 24:44ff and you too will learn that the Scriptures testify of Him.
I am not interested in your opinion. Jesus already testified that he is the son of God. Are you going to make Jesus his father now?
Directing you to Scripture according to it's content and immediate context isn't expressing an opinion.
On the other hand, denying what Scripture plainly says, even in the wooden literalistic manner you seem to be looking for, because of your preconceived misinterpretation of Scripture is illogical and a gross error.
19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
Why did you omit vs 20? Who sent Jesus?
Because it isn't part of the wooden literalistic answer you were looking for, and according to the context of the passage and the rest of Scripture it doesn't alter the assertion of Jesus that He is God, He is I AM.
Therefore he is not God.
Therefore he is not God.
Therefore he is not God.
Therefore he is not God.
All of your objections to the deity of Christ are Scripturally uninformed and obtuse. Here's how
you can know that they are Scripturally uninformed and obtuse.
Starting in Genesis 1, it was God, elohim, who created the heavens and the earth or all things.
It was God, elohim, who said let
us make man in
our image, in
our likeness Genesis 1:26.
It was the LORD, YHWH, who said let
us go down and confuse their language, Genesis 11:6-7.
Scripture repeatedly identifies who constitutes the
us of the one LORD God. But someone has convinced you that God's word can't be trusted as it is given in it's immediate context so you must impose your reasoning which you have accumulated from the creation upon the Creator and His revelation.
Qaa
None of them says Jesus is God. What are you trying to prove? If you intend to prove that Jesus is God the least you can do is post a passage where Jesus said "I am God". Can you do that?
That is an illogical and Scripturally uninformed conclusion and objection. Who sent Moses to the Israelites?
“And God [elohim] said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM; and He said, you shall say this to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.” (Exo 3:14, LITV) See what was quoted of Jesus in the post to which you replied.
