Not surprisingly, you tried to misquote to suit your agenda. Are you a mormon or merely an agitprop?

1. Jesus became a man. Your response: For The Son became a man inside the created universe. We agree on this point. The actual sentence reads, "Jesus IS God, as shown in John 1 and following. God, the God Who Created all things through The Son and For The Son became a man inside the created universe." You tried to mischaracterize my sentence to read only 'The Son became a man inside the created universe' when I stated clearly (as scripture teaches) that GOD became a man in the created universe ... and for your challenged mental frailty that means He was God and remained God while taking on the tent tabernacle of the flesh. The remainder of your effort isn't worth lending to it credulity by quoting it to point out the numerous mischaracterization holes. But that was a nice try and quite revealing.

Do you agree with Nietsche? Was God dead for a period of time? Or is He immortal? Maybe you want it both ways. You are beginning to sound like a Mormon here. Despite your oblique insult of inferring I'm sounding like a mormon, I will address Nietsche's flawed reasoning: Jesus has a Spirit, a soul of life force, and a body; when Jesus was crucified, the body died (and it was that which was brought into existence by the power of The Holy Spirit), but the Spirit which is The Life of the human species when imbued with God's Life never died thus He took up again the murdered body in resurrection. God no more died than He would die when a star goes nova and new stars eventually are formed from the previously exploded substance. Your a lightweight if you think quoting poor Nietsche will gain you any advantage. There is no contradiction when one level of a being dies without the whole being being dead ... you shed dead cells every day, and you remain alive throughout the process. But you gave it your best shot using circular reasoning. Does your mind function like that daily?

your = you are or you’re ... you’ll find the sentence, eventually.
