But here is what Jesus Himself said (in Mark): "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
I did not realize that Atheists were so ignorant about Christianity. I'll try to remember that for the future.
I know it's fake. I still love it, though.
For my Christian brothers and sisters, I ask a simple question. I would love to know your answers.
Who is Jesus?
Jesus is God. God, incarnate.
There are numerous passages in the Bible that hint, or say that.
The exclamation of Thomas comes to mind (when he finally realized who Jesus is).
John 20
27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
28 Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
I just came across a chapter this morning that plainly states that: 1 John 3
1 John 3 talks about God and love. Refer to the whole chapter, especially to following verses:
1 John 3
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
(is consistent with Jesus' statement in John 15)
1 John 3
16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
Clearly, Jesus and God, are One and the Same.
Clearly you are a Trinitarian, ... Trinitarians don't believe scripture. Trinitarians believe their own pet interpretations of scripture. Which is not same as believing scripture.
I've been pondering on 1 John 3, and here's what I'm seeing:
We have to believe that God manifested as The Son incarnate (Jesus) - and we should keep God/Jesus commandments (dwelling in God/Jesus), and hereby we know that God/Jesus dwells in us by the Spirit (God/Jesus) which He gave to us.
To add to other comments...Jesus is King...no longer a little baby in the manger...and he rules in heaven, as of 2014 and soon he'll rule over the earth as well...
Clearly you are a Trinitarian...Trinitarians believe their own pet interpretations of scripture. Which is not same as believing scripture.
Your thread Les was a sincere attempt to share. But unfortunately it doesn't take more than oh say 6 posts later someone comes around to derail it.I did not realize that Atheists were so ignorant about Christianity. I'll try to remember that for the future.

Keep loving G-d Les, you are something special. And as far as your original post yes Yeshua is the annointed one.
Les thank you. You bring innocence and sheer joy to believers with your posts.
If I bring joy, God made me do it.
I did not feel that I was derailed. The folks who wish to minimize my beliefs cannot do so. I did not get into a detailed accounting of my beliefs; however, several in that thread had seen me tell it in more detail. I was not wanting to get into a fight and they kept backing me in a corner because I would not respond. That is when I decided that I needed to stand, or in this case, sit, firmly and express my beliefs. That was why that thread was started.
Interesting that you post the list of names. I have a framed print in my office of "And He Shall Be Called" listing all of the names. I always want to be reminded who Jesus is.
I quoted the Scriptures! Why do you say I don't believe in the Scriptures?
Of course Trinitarians cite some scripture. They just don't believe scripture that conflicts with their grand pet interpretation.
Then they compound their error by condemning as "heretic" all who cite and believe the scripture that Trinitarians ignore.
For well over a 1000 years Trinitarians OPENLY tortured and killed those they deemed "heretic."
EH?????
What's human behaviours got to do with the argument that, Jesus is God?
You must belong to those who think that being a Christian means being perfect, and not to sin anymore.
You better review the New Testament. Do you understand why Jesus had died for us?
For my Christian brothers and sisters, I ask a simple question. I would love to know your answers.
Who is Jesus?
Evil behavior flows from evil ideology. I submit demanding torture and murder of people is evil.
Extra evil when done by people claiming to be the direct representatives of the NT revealed Jesus Christ (who HEALED people ... and never authorized torture and murder of anyone for any reason).
i believe uncle jimmy has some insight about this
