Are you seriously suggesting that the one contradicts the other? Jesus said He is God, He is the Son of God, and also He is the Son of Man. They all complement each other.

This one. Do you recant this statement?

I don't know. It might be between me and God.

I don't recant anything. But it may very well be that Jesus is God. I just can't make that statement. Either the Son is God or Jesus is God or neither. Jesus is God. Or, Jesus is not God. I am not sure.

Jesus said that He is the Son of God. He did not say that He is God. He did say that He is the Son of Man. See John 17:5.

Hello Jacob, you do well to say and confirm that Jesus is GOD, because HE IS. Jesus has revealed this to us as written in scripture. Jesus is GOD but is distinct from GOD, father and son they are but also one.

Blessings.

That is interesting and may be true but I am not sure and I am okay with that. I know that I am saved by Jesus my Lord.

Acts 10:43~ All the prophets testify about Him that everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His name. :)

John 17:5 NASB20 - "And now You, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world existed.

This verse seems to say that God did not come to earth. And the Son of God is not God.

Does anyone here believe that the Son of God is God? I don't see any verses in the Bible stating this to be the case. I don't know why so many people disagree.

I would love to know what you are thinking in sharing these verses with me.

You say Jesus is your Savior. God attests there is no Savior aside from Him. Acts affirms this.

Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.

His name is Jesus.

When presented with this argument, it seems a simple choice needs to be made… either Jesus is God or the Bible contradicts itself over and over and over again…
I am going to go out on a limb a say Jesus is God… What a strong limb that is.
