God is Jesus vs. Jesus is God

[2003cobra]

I received an email from a Bible search website this morning that was entitled “God is Jesus.”

I was surprised by my reaction. I have no doubt that Jesus is God. That is clear from the scriptures.

I have a different feeling about the sentence “God is Jesus.”

Perhaps my discomfort with “God is Jesus” is that Jesus described the Father is greater than He.

I would like the opinion of others on the topic.

Anyone else have discomfort with the statement “God is Jesus.”

I don't. There is only one Most High, everyone else is less high.

I think it is good because there is only one God and He is the Father. since Jesus is God, then he must also be that one God and Father.

I do not say God is Jesus or Jesus is God. And they are different statements.

Thanks for posting.

Jamie, are you saying that Jesus is the only one Most High?

John 1:14 KJV -

The verse is
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

I asked for opinions, and this isn’t one.

I do not say God is Jesus or Jesus is God. And they are different statements.

Thanks for posting.

What do you say about the relationship between God and Jesus?

Jesus is the only begotten Son of God.

Sure it's not, it simply answers your question. End Of Thread.

How can Jesus be the Father if He:
1) Prays to the Father,
2) Says the Father is greater than He is,
3) Says the Father knows things He does not, and
4) Said He had to return to the Father?

Those statements and actions seem to indicate that He is not the Father.

More doubting and misinterpretation, good job.

I am going to assume you did not intend to be rude.

It doesn’t answer my question.

It doesn’t end the thread.

Oh, i'm sorry, that was my opinion.

I guess I assumed wrong.

Thank you, too.

1) Prays to the Father,

Because God came as a man, and men are supposed to pray to God the Father.

2) Says the Father is greater than He is,

Right. God the Father in heaven is greater then God the Father as a man.

3) Says the Father knows things He does not, and
4) Said He had to return to the Father?

God the Father did not pretend to come as a man, He really came as a man.
Do you know what I mean?

Those statements and actions seem to indicate that He is not the Father.

No. Those actions show that He came as a man.

Since the verse says “the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,” I take it your opinion is that God is not Jesus and are not comfortable with the sentence “God is Jesus.”

That is the way I understand your opinion. Feel free to clarify if I have misunderstood you.

I agree God came as a man.

I am not sure I would be able to definitely support your position God the Father came as a man. When He came, was He God the Father?

Thanks for the discussion so far.

God the Father came as a Son in the flesh.

Jesus was God the Father as a man.

Thank you again.

Jesus is not the Father. Jesus is the Son of the Father. You have no scripture to say differently.

Matthew 3:17
King James Version (KJV)

17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Is it true or is it false.
