The Messiah is Divine, hence He is God.
Yes, the One who came to Jesus in Matt 3:16 and saved him from the law for sin of the Jews doctrine for a god that he once taught them of. Ironic is the very ones he once taught their god in the temple even from a young age are the very ones who had him crucified for blaspheme.
Jesus is the Lord in Joel, Isaiah and Jeremiah
No He isn't at all, Christ is, Gods anointing, man anointed of Gods Spirit, Jesus didnt come along for a couple thousand years after these.
Joel 2:27-32
32 "And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of the LORD
Will be delivered;
Most dont call on Him, they call on an idol, a man as a god instead of the One Jesus receieved in Matt 3:16.
For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
There will be those who escape,
As the LORD has said,
Even among the survivors whom the LORD calls.
He calls all but few who receive Him as Jesus did did in Matt 3:16, As Adam did in. Gen 3:22 when he became like Him as well,, and Abraham received Him, Moses received Him, 120 received Him and so did I and all who has received the same from Him as Jesus did in Matt 3:16. Jesus described this new mind as born again, born of God.
Paul quotes Joel below and says it is Jesus who is the Lord(YHWH) whom all will call upon
That is why I follow Jesus in his ways in the Father instead of Paul in his own belief system.
Romans 10:9-13
9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, "WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of C all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; 13 for "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."
Who soever will obey and receieve from God His salvation as Jesus did in Matt 3:16 will be saved by God Himself for He will come to you and be sin you and you in Him as one. See Jesus prayer to his God in John 17 for you to be.
Isaiah 45:21-24
Is it not I, the LORD?
And there is no other God besides Me,
SO true. yet these religious minds has made their god a man, some even have three gods and call them a trinity LOL.
A righteous God and a Savior;
There is none except Me.
Thats is exampled in Matt 3:16 how God saves man.
22 " Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth;
For I am God, and there is no other.
23 "I have sworn by Myself,
The word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness
And will not turn back,
That to Me every knee will bow, every tongue will swear allegiance.
24 "They will say of Me, 'Only in the LORD are righteousness and strength.'
Amen, and it is very clear that when you see Him as He is as Jesus saw Him as He is in Matt 3:16 where He manifested Himself in Jesus and us all who has receieved from Him the same -- ye shall be like Him as well, 1 John 3.
Now Paul quotes Isaiah about YHWH and declares it is Jesus(YHWH) whom all will bow before,
That is because he never met the God that Jesus did in Matt 3:16.
Philippians 2:9-11
For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
But we who has received from God that what Jesus did in Matt 3:16 pray with and worship our Father who is God just as Jesus did.
See Jesus prayer to his God for you to be like Him as well in John 17. .
Isaiah 6:1-5
In the year of King, Uzziah's death, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, lofty and exalted, with the train of His robe filling the temple. 2 Seraphim stood above Him, each having six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one called out to another and said,
"Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord of hosts,,
The whole earth is full of His glory."
4 And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, while the temple was filling with smoke. 5 Then I said,
5"Woe is me, for I am ruined!,
Because I am a man of unclean lips,
And I live among a people of unclean lips;,
For my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts."
Below John says Isaiah saw His ( Jesus the Son's ) glory. This was the only time the prophet Isaiah saw the Lord ( YHWH )
John 12:41
These things Isaiah said, because he saw His glory, and he spoke of Him
SO do we all who God is manifest Himself in us as He did in Jesus and these others who God came to by the Spirit that He is. For God is a Spirit not a man LOL.
Jeremiah 17:10 the Lord says
"I the LORD search the heart, I test the mind. Even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings"
Amen, and Jesus receieved the mind of God in Matt 3:16 where God opens Himself in Jesus just as He does in us all who God has manifested Himself in us.
In Revelation 2:23 Jesus says
"I am He who searches the minds and hearts and I will give to each one of you according to your works"
Yes, Jesus referred to this new mind as born again. See Matt 3:16 this is how God does it in man.
So if Jesus is not God ( YHWH ) why would he claim to do something in Revelation that Yahweh claimed in Jeremiah?
Jesus claim is he was son of God and God was his Father, the One he obeyed and prayed to and said sent him to show you the ways of the Father. Not many follow Jesus to Him though do they? .
So is it Yahweh or Jesus who searches hearts and minds?
Actually it is God who searches the minds of people. it isn't to hard to see who is in the father and like Him as Jesus was in and like Him. We walk as He walks in His same light with the same signs following us who followed Jesus.
The only name that can possibly be above all names is the name of YHWH. This means that Jesus shares the personal name and authority of YHWH, making Him God Himself as no one can be equal to God except God alone.
Everyone who has received from God are exactly like Him. If you are different from Him as Jesus and Abraham and Moses and 120 were like Him then you have a different god aside from the One who does give you His same mind, or Spirit is is called, as He did in Jesus for Jesus didnt know God nor His heaven until God came to Him by His Spirit and opens it all up to him. You can read that in Matt 3:16 how that came about.
Hepls me understand that you worship a different god from the One Jesus worshiped and obeyed and prayed to.
