There is a huge difference between "too hard" and "against His nature".
When God took the body of a man and the nature of a man, He kept all of His divinity.
That is trinitarian doublespeak. Flesh is flesh; spirit is spirit. Babylon = mixture. Hashem is not Babylonish in nature and therefore never at war with His own fleshly nature and desires.
Num 23.19. God is not a man, that he should lie; nor the son of man, that he should repent; Has he said, and shall he not do it? or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good:
God appeared twice as a man in the Old Testament. Once to Abraham in Gen. 18 and ate a meal. Once to Israel in Gen. 32 in which Israel wrestled with Him and latter named a place which means I met God face to face.
1Jo 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
1Jo 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
1Jo 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
2Jo 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
Jesus is the Christ and the Christ is a MAN...anyone who denies this is antichrist.
Lifeorgoods, your beliefs are antichrist.
God is spirit. Jesus is a man. God is spirit. Jesus came in the flesh. There is only one God and God is one.
Thanks for the pings. We went to my wife's parents' church for the easter service. The sermon was "CSI: Jerusalem". It was a very slick presentation complete with huge graphics on 2 screens behind the pastor. During the closing prayer there were 4 separate references to Jesus as God. This was not just a bluring of identity. One quote: "Thank you Father for coming down and sacrificing yourself for us...". Nobody else even caught it (or cared), but this was done 4 times. When I asked people about it, it was obvious that most don't think about it much. They understand that God the Father and Jesus are 2 different beings and that Jesus is God's son. None really had an understanding of what the trinity really means. They just know that they believe in the trinity, even if they can't explain it.
