1 | Do you yet say that Jesus was just a man | John 9:24 | Ray | 54958 | ||
NKJ, John 9:24, "So they again called the man who was blind, and said to him, "Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner." 1 Peter 2:21, "...leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps, WHO COMMITTED NO SIN, NOR WAS ANY DECEIT FOUND IN HIS MOUTH." When comparing these verses, why would someone still say today that Jesus was just a man? From the heart, Ray |

2 | Do you yet say that Jesus was just a man | John 9:24 | jlpangilinan | 55028 | ||
No He is God. Joh 1:1 ¶ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. The verse that you quoted He (Jesus Christ) was in the formed of man. Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Even God the Father revealed that Christ is God Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

Hi jlpangilinan, Thanks for answering, Johnny. The point that I always try to make as a "capitalizer" is as you have written "He is God". I've been studying from the NASB and NKJ so long that I could not read for very long in any other version. For instance, John l:2 that you have referenced I would have to think, "The Same was in the beginning with God." Of course the Greek reads "THIS ONE" or "He was in the beginning with God." I need to have a copy that gives glory to God by capitalizing the Man and His words. And I think that anyone who writes about god consistently should be under close scrutiny; but that is my particular bias. I think that your quote of Philippians would show the contrast between the Man and the servant in the likeness of men, if it were in the NASB or NKJ. I want the forum members to give glory to God and recognize the Man, Jesus Christ. I want our churches to be true to the one God and to know Him. So I appreciate that you testify that He is God. I would go farther than the NASB and NKJ when I consider Philippians 2:8, "And being found in appearance as a *Man, He humbled Himself...Therefore also God highly exalted Him..." I still have this question then of whether we have to think of Jesus at all now as a man. From the heart, Ray |
