What does "Deity of Christ" mean?

[Runningman]

You are still in denial of the evidence.
Get help.




See John 14:14.

You're in denial. Did Jesus tell his disciples that when they pray to pray to the Father? That's prescriptive, not descriptive. Learn the difference.

Matt 6
6But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen.
9So then, this is how you should pray:
‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.

 

[Fred]

You're in denial.

I love what John 14:14 teaches in that Jesus is the proper recipient of prayer.

Those who deny this precious truth are very confused.

 

[grace2]

You are still in denial of the evidence.
Get help.

Your ignorance is not bliss, friend. It is a grievous sin.

You are the ones who need Jesus' help.

 

[Arial]

Your ignorance is not bliss, friend. It is a grievous sin.

You are the ones who need Jesus' help.

You need to tone it down a notch. Thank you.

 

[Fred]

Your ignorance is not bliss, friend. It is a grievous sin.

You are the ones who need Jesus' help.

How about you actually address the evidence I gave concerning Acts 1:24-25?

 

[Mr GLee]

And yet He still receives 'glory' in equality with the Father in worship.

Not equality but just as the moon reflect the glorious light of the Sun. The son of man reflects the glory of the father.

In the new heavens and earth there will be no Sun of moon which is used to represent the work of father and son of man, Jesus.

It will be like the first three days before the glory of the Father as the literal light of the world disappeared and the two corruption timekeepers began winding down to the last day under the Sun.

He uses the heavens the temporal things seen as a parable or picture of the Father (bridegroom) working with the Son of man the bride or church.

Psalams 1:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.There is no speech nor language, where their (Sun moon) voice is not heard. Their line (Sun and moon) is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them( Sun with the moon or father and son) hath he set a tabernacle for the sun Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,(Sun) and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

 

[Fred]

Not equality but just as the moon reflect the glorious light of the Sun.

Revelation 5:13 does not teach your delusion.

What the Father is worshiped for applies equally unto the Son.

 

[grace2]

How about you actually address the evidence I gave concerning Acts 1:24-25?

Why?

I am not playing your heresy game.

 

[grace2]

You need to tone it down a notch. Thank you.

He has been repeating the same quote over and over.

And mean time he cannot refute the actual point we are addressing.

This is his mantra:

You dodged Acts 1:24-25 again.

It isn't going away no matter how much you try to ignore it.

 

[Fred]

Why?

Because it would demolish your false belief.

I am not playing your heresy game.

Copout.

 

[Fred]

He has been repeating the same quote over and over.

Because you have been ignoring the evidence "over and over."

When "Lord" is used with 4 other key words from the prayer then the Lord always refers to Jesus.

Acts 1:24-25
(24) And they prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two You have chosen
(25) to occupy this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.”


The passages below in boldface are from the same author (Luke).

1. The "Lord" occurs along with the same Greek word for "show" (anadeiknymi) in Acts 1:24 - in reference to the Lord Jesus (Luke 10:1).

2. The "Lord" occurs along with the same Greek word for "chosen" (eklegomai) in Acts 1:24 - in reference to the Lord Jesus (Acts 1:2; cf. v. 6; Luke 6:13; cf. vv. 5, 46; John 6:70; cf. v. 68 and John 13:18; cf. vv. 13-14).

3. The "Lord" occurs along with the same Greek word for "ministry" (diakonia) in Acts 1:25 - in reference to the Lord Jesus (Acts 1:17; cf. v. 21; 20:24; 1 Corinthians 12:5; Ephesians 4:12; cf. Ephesians 4:5; Colossians 4:17; 1 Timothy 1:12).

4. The "Lord" occurs along the same Greek word for "apostleship" (apostolē) in Acts 1:25 - in reference to the Lord Jesus (Romans 1:5; cf. Romans 1:4; 1 Corinthians 9:2).

 

[grace2]

Because you have been ignoring the evidence "over and over."

You have no evidence to claim Jesus is God.

 

[Fred]

You have no evidence to claim Jesus is God.

a. Only God is the proper recipient of prayer.
b. The Lord Jesus is the proper recipient of prayer (see post 111).
c. Therefore, the Lord Jesus is God.

 

[grace2]

Because it would demolish your false belief.

You cannot demolish Jesus' word.

how outrageous to claim such a thing.

Your dishonoring and disrespect of our Lord, Jesus Christ is despicable.

 

[grace2]

a. Only God is the proper recipient of prayer.
b. The Lord Jesus is the proper recipient of prayer (see post 111).
c. Therefore, the Lord Jesus is God.

 

[Fred]

The level of your foolishness is revealed.

Keep hiding.

 

[Mr GLee]

Revelation 5:13 does not teach your delusion.

What the Father is worshiped for applies equally unto the Son.

Hi thanks I see that a little differently.

The father applies his power on the powerless

What the father is worshiped for is giving a desire to the dying mankind as Son of man, Jesus to cry out . .Abba father not as I will (no power) but as you the one with the "let there be" as a work of his faith (belief)or labor of His love and "it was very good Power".

Matthew 26:39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

 

[Fred]

You cannot demolish Jesus' word.

how outrageous to claim such a thing.

Your dishonoring and disrespect of our Lord, Jesus Christ is despicable.

Your false belief and Jesus' word are not the same thing.

 

[Fred]

Hi thanks I see that a little differently.

The father applies his power on the powerless

But created being are not worshiped for it.

Jesus is.

 

[Mr GLee]

But created being are not worshiped for it.

Jesus is.

Our brother in the Lord Jesus born of dying flesh and blood is signified as sinful. Dying flesh signified as sinful was needed to put way sin in the flesh.

A vision or theophany would not accomplish the purpose of the Father. Literal dying flesh was needed to demonstrate the work of the Father pouring out His Spirt life in jeopardy of his own Spirit on the dying flesh. The one time promised demonstration.

Romans 8:3 For what the law (death) could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
