You have yet to teach anything other than negatives.
Muslims seek humbleness...
Are you really seeking Allah?
Do you believe that although Jesus Christ is no longer on earth (you can't see and hear him) but he can still teach?
To become a humble is a teaching from God The Father.
You can read some in the Bible.
Here is one.
1 CHRONICLES 7:14
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
My point is encountering resistance to the listeners when sharing the Truth is just normal. No Big Deal.
I did not attend any bible schools because I believe on what our Lord Jesus said.
This is for everybody.
JAMES 1:5-8
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
The humbleness requires by Jesus Christ in here is don't Become Double Minded means do not doubt.
I just corrected the word Assistance into Resistance then I have martyr complex?
If you are really searching for the Truth. It is enough for you to read the posts or the sharing of everyone. You have your choice, you can leave it or you can take it.
But I think you are not searching for the Truth. Your are a Critics of the Truth.
No one on earth is worthy to become a teacher. We are talking heavenly things and Jesus Christ who come from the heaven could teach heavenly things.
Revelation 5:1-5
You don't really know the real Jesus Christ recognized by the Apostles and Disciples.
You are after the letter of the word.
2 CORINTIANS 3:6
6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
Again, If you recognize the real Jesus recognized by the Apostles & Disciples. You can easily reconcile this.
With your quote Jesus is God, and He was not wrong. It appears you don't recognize the real Jesus recognized by the Apostles.
If Jesus is just a God how do you reconcile this verse when he said, God is Good and himself is not Good?
LUKE 18:18-19
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
If Jesus is God, why he knows and can do nothing?
JOHN 5:19
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
You better answer me this time.
Yes, or no.
Are you saying to me... That you will not learn from any teachers the Lord has given the gift to teach His Church?
That you only learn directly from Jesus?
Yes, or no.
Yes, but getting back on topic, Paul's teaching was that all we have is God's, and we should be good stewards of such,
including sharing with others as we feel led by the HS. (But 10% seems like a fair amount.)
I know the truth; I met Him many years ago, and I point out the errors so that others may not be misled. Sadly, you have been misled, but perhaps Jesus will have mercy and correct you.
Do you deny that Jesus is God? Just give me a straight answer without commenting or diverting.
Answer this question then I will answer your question.
If Jesus is just a God how do you reconcile this verse when he said, God is Good and himself is not Good?
LUKE 18:18-19
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
If Jesus is God, why he knows and can do nothing?
JOHN 5:19
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
Ah, the dodge. I am not playing your games. I asked you first. Answer my question, or I will conclude you have something to hide.
Well, you are too weak to be direct with us....
That at least shows us that you know how to pick passages that make it look like Jesus is not God.
The thing you fail to see is this.
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Philippians 2:6-8
In order to die in our place, Jesus had to become as a man in order to die for all men.
What happened after He succeeded to die as a man?
He no longer needed to remain as a man. He then returned to heaven to return, to being fully God manifested in a human body.
For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form. Colossians 2:9
Grace and peace....
.........
If you don't know the answer to my question then I don't know the answer in your question too.
I would like to emphasize who is the real Jesus recognized by the Apostles.
This is the real Jesus recognized by Simon Peter. It has 2 roles Christ and Son of God. It requires a miracle from God why Jesus is Christ and a Son of God.
MATTHEW 16:15-17
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
