QUESTION 1 for YOU - IF YOU BELIEVE JESUS is GOD

[Sojourner]

Is there any reason why you do not wish to return to this thread Bible Jim and answer the discussions raised to you?

[BobRyan]

Why do you believe Jesus is God, when you can read

word for word in the Book of Numbers,

Chapter 23, 19: God is not a man, that he should lie;

neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said,

and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken,

and shall he not make it good?

Do you believe this or is this a lie?

1. Jesus was a man.

2. Jesus was a son of man.

18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;

I had a Bible study in a bar one night with a JW. I asked Him directly if He worshipped Jesus; using some of the Scriptures Bob posted. He straightaway answered yes; cuz Jehovah said is was OK; so he was OK with worshipping Jesus.

[Dr. Waite]

Agree - excellent collection of verses

Agree - the Son of God is God

Hebrews 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."

However - the Son of God has a person who is his God whereas, His Father, the only true God, does NOT have a person who is his God.

Hebrews 1:9 - "Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows"

John 20:17 - "Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and [to] my God, and your God."

Revelation 3:12 - "Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [i will write upon him] my new name.

I once had a Bible which I had marked especially for Bible studies with JW.

They way to mark your Bible is to write on the back leaf: Jesus Worship (JW) and the first text above. Under that text you write 2JW and the second text. Then you are alway ready to give a Bible study.
