GarySpFc: "Jesus even claimed to forgive sins, for which He was charged with blasphemy (Mk 2:5–7), because He was fully aware only God can forgive sin."

FRiend, the answer to your question is found soon after, in Mark 2:10-12:

Jesus answered them saying: 9 "Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’?
I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.”
So he said to the man, 11 “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.”
12 He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all.
This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

Here again we see that Jesus clearly, consistently, openly said he was "Son of God", "Son of Man", Messiah/Christ.
He never explicitly claimed to be God Himself.

Like most liars who work for the father of lies, you purposely leave out that to the Jews —to whom Jesus first directed His teaching— the forgiving of sin was a Grace ONLY God could perform. So when Jesus forgave someone on Earth, the Jews received that as proof He was claiming the position which to their minds only God held. Your purposed deceptions expose for whom you are posting so arduously at FR. You are gladly serving the spirit of antichrist.

Brojoke: some bowlsheet that doesn’t even address the fact that Jesus openly forgave sin.

Brojoke assertion: He never explicitly claimed to be God Himself.
***Heresy. God Damnable Heresy. You are a God damned heretic.

Obviously, you are stating we cannot prove Jesus is God.

It may surprise you, but I agree that we cannot prove to your satisfaction Jesus is God.

Evidence is objective and proof subjective. We have presented considerable evidence that Jesus is God, and even used His own words in the process. You have to decide if the evidence presented rises to the level of proof, and if it does you are responsible to respond in faith to Christ. However, you do not have the final say in this matter, because the Lord knows if you are rejecting the light or not, and He will judge you on that basis. (John 3:19)

You state, “Here again we see that Jesus clearly, consistently, openly said he was "Son of God", "Son of Man", Messiah/Christ”

You are willing to accept Him as only a man, and that goes to the heart of the problem. When your Jesus speaks he voices an opinion…nothing more. He is simply a philosopher, with empty words.

The Jesus of the Bible is totally different. His words are eternal and always true. He speaks with an authority lacking in your Jesus.

I do not have the right to judge your heart or final destination. However, I will emphatically state your views are heretical and have no place in Christianity, and from everything I have studied and read unless you repent you will be damned.
