Dear Cheri, Somewhat along the lines of "I and my Father are one..." why do you think Jesus said the words, "why callest me thou good, there is none good but our Father in heaven?" Do you think the Jewish people rejected Jesus because he admitted that he is not good? flyman |

Greetings Flyman, Here I am getting into speculation which is virtually useless, but my 2 cents worth on this would be that He already knew what the Jews were expecting - a man, not God to be Messiah - and they had already or were on the brink of rejecting Him for that very reason. He was simply confirming their own belief - that "no one is good but God..." so He either IS their Messiah (and God) or He is not. Once again, there are others who might can give you a more scriptural basis, I cannot, I don't know of any scriptural reference for your question (which is a very good one, btw) - but "WHY" questions are hard to answer without book, chapter, and verse, which I just don't have. So, once again, this was purely speculation. Cheri |
