What does "Deity of Christ" mean?

Irrelevant, because He never did.

Receiving glory has nothing to do with being God. We, too, can be glorified with Jesus.

But people will not be worshiped in equality with the Father because of it.

Wow. Your arguments are terrible.

That isn't a common translation because it confuses Jesus with God.

Thus, demonstrating Jesus is God.

Proving you are in contradiction with Acts 10:36 and Romans 10:12.

The Son is the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:5) and the radiance of God's glory and the exact image of God's nature (Hebrew 1:3), so while we can't see invisible traits like like righteousness, holiness, goodness, justice, mercy, faithfulness, love, joy, peace, kindness, gentleness, self-control, the Son is the personification of those traits in the form of a body that we can see expressed through living in sinless obedience to God's word, or in other words, he is God's word made flesh and he is who we see when we look at the Father. The problem with idolatry is that it misrepresents the nature of God, so if the Son were anything less than the exact image of God's nature, then worshiping him as God would have been idolatry. The way to worship the Father is through partaking in the divine nature by expressing His traits, which means that the way to worship the Father is identical to the way to worship the Son. For example, doing charity is a way to worship both the Father and the Son.

How about Jesus not being God Himself as the idolatry problem? Do you pray to and worship an image of God or do you pray to and worship God?

But Jesus could have and it isn't even possible for God to lie.

You evaded pretty much my entire post.

No he didn't.

This reply was lazy. Please address the points I made rather than just making noise. Thank you.
 
Fred said:
Zero proof for your bogus assertion.



Learn to communicate using proper grammar.
Acts 10:36 and Romans 10:12 are still there.



In light of Romans 10:12, are you still confused as to whom the "Him" refers to in Romans 10:11?

Weak. Okay, I will stop replying to you so you don't have more opportunities to bury the truth. When you want to actually engage my posts in a meaningful way I am here.

As long as you dismiss Jesus' word "My Father is My God and your God", anything you say is meaningless.

The Father is "my God" (John 20:17) and Jesus is "my God" (John 20:28).

there you have it.

You dismiss Jesus' word over and over and claim to be Christians.

In John 20:17 Jesus said the God of his brothers (Thomas for example) is the Father.

In John 20:28 when Thomas said "my God" he didn't contradict Jesus. He said the Father is his God.

Check. Mate.
 
Fred said:
Thanks.
I have it right what the Bible teaches in that Jesus is "my God" (John 20:28).

One day, you may wake up to this truth.

You've obviously ignored a lot of context to come to that false teaching.

Your dodging of Jesus' word is pathetic.

That isn't a prayer to Jesus. It doesn't even say his name lol. The Bible doesn't even say Jesus "knows everyone's heart." Jesus isn't omniscient. Wake up.
