Glorydaz defends the deity of Christ.
Thank you, Glorydaz!
Thank you, Glorydaz!
I didn't realize you would be so impatient for an answer.
As most believers would undoubtedly tell you, I don't claim to understand all Scripture. However, I do believe all Scripture.
In other words, I see many many verses that speak of the HUMANITY of Jesus Christ, and I believe every one of them. I ALSO see many many verses that speak of the DEITY of Jesus Christ, and rather than ignore them or dismiss them (as you seem to), I believe every one of them.
Obviously, the reason you ignore the verses that speak of the DEITY OF JESUS CHRIST is because you believe so firmly in the YELLOW above. You've made up your mind that a mere man cannot possibly be God.
Now, see how you take one verse about God being the Head of Christ....out of it's context, I might add, and yet you IGNORE John 1:1 and John 1:14 which tells you the Word became flesh and is God? In Him dwelt ALL THE FULNESS OF THE GODHEAD. The answer to your question would be CLEAR to you, IF you had not already decided He has but one nature. That's exactly how the Word of God is quenched by your mind.
Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
You ignore the verses that tell you Jesus Christ is the POWER and WISDOM of God, and preach how the power was given by the Father, not understanding that Christ IS the Power of God. You close one eye when you read the Word........all the time you do it.
1 Corinthians 1:24
But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
You ignore that He is before all things, that He created all things, that by Him all things consist....even that He was in the form of God and took on Himself the form of a servant (man). You shout out, "But He has a God!"
While I would never deny Jesus has a human nature, I also understand that He existed as the Word from the beginning. I understand that God clearly states He is the ONLY GOD AND SAVIOUR, and you point to the word "and" to claim they are of two different entities (God and man)....not the same ONE TRUE GOD. Just as God is Light, and Jesus is the TRUE LIGHT of God. John 1:9 KJV Just as you can't see that the GLORY OF GOD is found in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6 KJV
Jesus is the REVELATION of God....His humanity hides Him too well from your eyes. He is a God who hides Himself from those who do not seek Him with all their heart. Set you "thinking cap" aside and read the verses that show you exactly who your Saviour is. There is only one. Jesus is the Saviour of the World and God says He alone is the Saviour.....it's God you argue with, not me. If they aren't the same ONE GOD, then the Bible isn't worth the paper it's written on.
Isaiah 45:15
Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
