Not quite the same, but note the point you are making. you got me thinking - what miracle did Jesus do that no one else in the bible done?

Albeit I note what you are implying - We seem to have gone away from the point we were discussing God presenting in human form in the OT. broad interpretation of Isiah 55. Many in the bible done miracles

Not sure if this is talking about Jesus second coming as he goes on to say; Luke 19:28 - 28 After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. Luke 22:36 - I also mentioned other passages like - If you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. - this relates to Jesus...

I see your connection - however John 1:20-21 talks about 3 seperate people - - Jesus is the 'Messiah' so he cant be 'the prophet' as well. John 7:40-41 also differentiates 7:40 'the prophet' & 7:41 'the Messiah' - 2 seperate people & Elijah John 1:19-27 - who is 'the prophet' 19 Now...

Can I ask your detailed take on John 1:19-27 - who is 'the prophet' 19 Now this was John’s testimony when the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. 20 He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Messiah.” ( Jesus) 21 They asked him...

Hair & covering slight conflict and arguably sexiest compared to now days. 1 Timothy 2:9-13 9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, 10 but with good deeds, appropriate...

There is clearly some conflict with Jesus / others and Paul James 2:24 - 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone. “It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid.” (Luke 16:17)...

None of that states that God took a human like form and definitely not that God was a human even with human restrictions for a moment.

How can you sin if there is no LAW?

How can you sin if there is no LAW?

Yes its clear that we need to repent and works is also needed not only faith & there has to be some law - otherwise if no law, there can be no sin and therefore no need to repent. Basically, do what you want as long as you believe. But than would have Jesus said the following; Matthew 7:21-23...

Not sure if 'context' helps you - anyway; you say - 'God revealed Himself to people before the NT in the form of someone in the likeness of man?' - any passages to back this up?

I presume you are not talking about the 'human' God ie Jesus who suffered, was tempted and died - how do we understand; Num 23:19: God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make...

Not just the second coming; Matt 10:34-36 34 Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law – 36 a man’s...

yes - Jesus is portrayed as Peace / Love / turn the other cheek etc.....

My intention was to understand in the light of Jesus being peaceful and us living by his grace love / peace - no law / sin this statement is far from that. I accept that I should have been much clearer and apologies for that. Doesn't allow me to amend.

How do you come to teat conclusion - this is Jesus speaking -saying to those who didnt want him to be King that they should be brought in front of him and killed.

“But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them, bring them here and kill them in front of me.” (Luke 19:27)

Yes Love agreed - 'new commandment' but Jesus does not say no 'Law' - Romans arguably contradicts other passages - bit of a messy one - but still of the opinion - must have to have some 'right' & 'wrong' otherwise you cannot sin and therefor do what every you want, it doent matter as long as...
