Havoc, was/is Jesus God?

Jesus is the Son of God. Born of flesh he was human with all the temptations we have - The Son of God in the flesh proved that we could overcome because He did. Do you have some problem with that statement? He submitted to the Will of the Father and made it through. And that's what each of us is supposed to be doing.

If someone asks me "Is Jesus God?" I say "Yes" unequivocably.

Your answer sounds like a "no." If I am reading that wrong then correct me.

What part of "Son of God" do you not understand? Last time I looked, that is a term that is quite well explained and understood in the Bible. If you want to be sensational, Dave, try having a valid point to make.

Just wanted to repeat this and aim it back at the earlier point being made: Jesus was tempted like every man and showed that a man on his own relying on God could live a sin free life. Jesus was taught as a boy and when he'd learned all he needed to answered only to the Father and the authorities (the law). He gave the know-it-all(know nothing) leaders of the then temple riddles for meat. Jesus gave a solid example. Men do not need their hands held to the grave. And men don't need to be indoctrinated in philosophy in order to know God or understand the Bible. All men are personally responsible for knowing the Word of God and for their own walk with God. So regardless what a man is told, if he is told wrong, he is still responsible for it. And that is the reason to demand proof from anyone who tries to foist upon you anything beyond the 66 books of the Bible!
