Did God become flesh?

[Dartman]

1 John 4:9 tells us that God SENT His ONLY begotten Son INTO the world.

Of course He sent Jesus into the world, and Jesus tells us WHEN;

Luke 4:16-21 And He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up; and as was his custom, he entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read.
17 And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. And he opened the book and found the place where it was written,
18 "THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME, BECAUSE HE ANOINTED ME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE POOR. HE HAS SENT ME TO PROCLAIM RELEASE TO THE CAPTIVES, AND RECOVERY OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, TO SET FREE THOSE WHO ARE OPPRESSED,
19 TO PROCLAIM THE FAVORABLE YEAR OF THE LORD."
20 And he closed the book, gave it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.
21 And he began to say to them, "Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."

And, Jesus tells us that he sent his apostles .... EXACTLY LIKE his God sent him;

John 17:18 As thou didst send me into the world, even so sent I them into the world.



So you are simply wrong.

How does that change the fact that only the father is the true God?

Who is discussing copy machines?




Another guy that ASSUMES things that are not written.

My teaching support scripture in support of our Lord's teachings. Its your weakness to faceup to truth that turned you into a viper. You know not the son or the Milith that was in him.

The translations are right. Your interpretation is wrong.

 

[Dartman]

That is not what scripture says, you heretic.

Here is what it ACTUALLY SAYS:

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. - John 17:3 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John17:3&version=NKJV

Who is "You" in this verse?

 

[keypurr]

The translations are right. Your interpretation is wrong.

Its you that is in the dark BR.

Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

WHO DOES IT SAY IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD?

 

[JudgeRightly]

How does that change the fact that only the father is the true God?

It doesn't say "ONLY THE FATHER is God."

It says "the Father is the only true God."

It DOES NOT EXCLUDE the SON from being God.

Are all the other translations wrong?

No, your reading of the verse is wrong.

Who is discussing copy machines?

You are, with your "God copied Himself" shtick.

Another guy that ASSUMES things that are not written.

Here I am, quoting SCRIPTURE DIRECTLY and you say "You're assuming things." :think:

That's right, put me down because you can't understand plain English.

The verse literally says:

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. - John 17:3 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John17:3&version=NKJV

IT SAYS: "The Father is the only true God."

It DOES NOT SAY: "Only the Father is the true God."

 

[JudgeRightly]

Who is "You" in this verse?

The Father, duh.

IT SAYS: "The Father is the only true God."

IT DOES NOT SAY: "Only the Father is the true God."

The verse DOES NOT EXCLUDE:

The Son
The Holy Spirit

From being the only true God.

 

[JudgeRightly]

Its you that is in the dark BR.

Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

WHO DOES IT SAY IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD?

It says the Father is the only true God.

IT DOES NOT SAY that ONLY the Father is the true God, NOR does it say that Only the Father is the ONLY true God.

It says:

the Father is the only true God

This verse DOES NOT EXCLUDE either the Son or the Holy Spirit from ALSO being "the only true God."

some how, they cannot see any clear statements of Jesus and His disciples' word.

Keypurr is saying that ONLY THE FATHER is the true God.

But that's not what the verse says.

It says:

The Father is the only true God.

It DOES NOT say:

Only the Father is the true God.

 

[meshak]

Keypurr is saying that ONLY THE FATHER is the true God.

But that's not what the verse says.

It DOES NOT say:

Nothing wrong about it because He is the God, no one else.

God is one, not two or three as you guys are claiming.

 

[JudgeRightly]

Duh.

You're not talking to polytheists, Meshak.

Quit with the strawman.

Read it slowly again, your words:

THE FATHER IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD.

Do you understand the word "ONLY"?

It means that there are NO OTHER TRUE GODS.

A copy of God himself is not God it is a FORM of God. A creation. And a creation is NOT GOD.

Read Phil 2, notice the words "that was IN Jesus Christ" is a "FORM of God, a god like spirit. IT has the power that his God gave him. That's the Militha that was sent to dwell in the body prepared for IT/HIM. The Militha is the true Son from the creation that existed from the start for God created all through him. He is the "O God" of Heb 1.

 

[meshak]

Duh.



You're not talking to polytheists, Meshak.

Quit with the strawman.

You are polytheistic, you claim Jesus is God.

Jesus' Father is God, not Jesus.

Your trinity doctrine is man-made.

No, we are not polytheistic.

you claim Jesus is God.

Because He is.

So is the Father.

So is the Holy Spirit.

He (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) is ONE GOD.

Jesus' Father is God,

This we agree on.

not Jesus.

Yes, Jesus too.

Your trinity doctrine is man-made.

No, it's not. It's God breathed.

OH YES IT DOES.
