I could be like those who have slammed me and say to them the same that they have said to me: Repent of your ways and your sin for you do not know who Jesus is. Jesus is the SON OF GOD, he is not God, if you do not believe that then you will not receive eternal life.
Jesus knows what I mean when I say that but you do not. True, he spoke the words, I did not, for if you deny that he is the son of God you will die just as he said. He is not God.
To answer the question: Did God die on the cross? Let’s first look to see if God was present at the cross.
The scorners said: “He trusteth on God; let him deliver him now, if he desireth him: for he said, I am the Son of God.” Mat 27:43 “And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Mat 27:46 “And Jesus cried again with a loud voice, and yielded up his spirit. Mat 27:50
Well, according to the book of Matthew, God was not present at the cross.
“And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Mr 15:33-34 “And Jesus uttered a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.” Mr 15:37
Nope, according to the book of Mark God wasn’t there either.
“And Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost. And when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.” Luke 23:46-47
“The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.” John 19:7 “When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.” John 19:30
So it appears that God was not present in any of the Gospels when Jesus was crucified. In fact it clearly says that Jesus cried out to God asking him why he had forsaken him. Why then didn’t God show up for his crucifixion if it was God who was on the cross?
So Jesus was killed because he claimed to be the “son of God” as stated in the gospels. God was in heaven, Jesus was here, God killed Jesus by taking his spirit when Jesus said “into thy hands I commend my spirit.” You see, Jesus is the lamb of God, not the lamb of Satan. Therefore it is God who was to take the life of Jesus, not Satan.
Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
Jesus did raise up the temple after three days, but it was God who brought him back to life. By returning from being dead (“from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead,” Rev 1:5), Jesus was able to show the world that he was alive and set forth an unending life from that day forward and for those who believe in him.
Let’s see if there are more than one sons of God.
“The Nephilim were in the earth in those days, and also after that, when the sons of God came unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them: the same were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.” Gen 6:4
“Now it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan also came among them.” Job 1:6
“Again it came to pass on the day when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah, that Satan came also among them to present himself before Jehovah.” Job 2:1
“When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?” Job 38:7
So now we know that God has many sons unless you want to call the bible full of lies. Then we can call all of it lies, right? We also know that Jesus is the only “begotten” one God sent here to earth.
There cannot be a Triune God if God has many other sons besides Jesus. If you believe in the bible, tell me where are these others son? Who are they? Were they present when Jesus died on the cross? Tell me smart ones, where are these others sons of God the bible you preach from mentions?
“For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” Mat 7:2 I tell you now, if you do not repent of your sins you will surely die.
You are self condemned: “But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” Mat 18:6
“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me. Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why do you not believe Me? He who is of God hears God's words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.” John 8:44-47
I for one have grown tired of hearing that God died on the cross. You folks wonder why people don’t listen to you, it’s because there are some very sharp people out there that know more than you.
God did not die on the cross, he is far too powerful, stronger, greater and no man has ever seen him. Even Jesus said when he was here that “God is spirit,” yet you cannot understand even that. If you say that Jesus is God, then you are saying that you have seen God or at least saying that the apostles have seen God and all the others in the day. Then you call the bible a lie again because it says that no man has seen God except for Jesus.
Jesus was in heaven on his own throne when God sent him into the world. Then Jesus returned to be with God after he was resurrected from the “dead.”
