Knowledge is truth. Jesus is The Word. He IS, or “I Am” the information creation consist of. He IS The Way, The Truth and The Life. He IS God. No one can be what He IS and not be God. He is not merely a saviour, He iS God who IS our one and only Saviour.
Everything about Jesus IS God, who loved us so much He become flesh to become our unblemished lamb of God 5sacrifice, dying to pay the horrific price of our sins. He isn’t just a blueprint, He IS our salvation, our LORD, Saviour and God.
He IS everything we need, but without Him, the true Him, not just a happy, benign, humanistic version of Him, painted by our own desire for an imaginary super friend, we will surely die in our sins. We will be unclean eternal exiles, unfit to live in God’s eternal Kingdom, existing separated from God, tormented in the lake of fire and brimstone forever.
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Matthew 28:19 - Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the HolyGhost:
He IS God.
Since you brought it up,
No, he's not, no matter how many people repeat it, believe it, and push that settled doctrine onto others, even with threats of eternal damnation for "denying" the trinity, as if it's the defacto truth that can never be questioned.
It's not that complicated. The Messiah is God's representative, like being the face of a company. He's the son going out as the representative of his father's business, with all the authority given to him by his father. He shows people how to enter the kingdom: what to do. You know, follow him, follow his example. Love your neighbor as yourself. Be kind, generous, and merciful.
The message of the real, "can-do" Messiah - the embodiment of the Law - is going to come as a shock. He's the ultimate anti-establishment type.
As I've stated before, he's the man who's been the greatest victim of false witness and character assassination in the entire history of the world. When a person has his reputation destroyed by media slander, we say that he's been crucified by the press. There you go, here's a man who's image has been so marred that he doesn't even resemble a man. If he believed in trinity doctrine, he wouldn't recognize himself.
Meanwhile, he IS everything a man should be, and is busy setting the proper example that should be followed.
Keep an eye out in a barn for a simple, humble man caring for the needs of his animals, or milking a cow, or out in the field with the sheep. In fact, the shepherds were told to look for a babe lying in a manger. Shoudn't be that difficult to locate him because how many people put out nativity scenes anymore. Eh, but who's looking there.
Crazy funny, really, yet humor is almost extinct. Almost.
