WHAT EXACTLY OUR YOU CALLING THE TRUTH. THE HOLY TRINITY DOCTRINE OF GOD IS THE REAL TRUTH. THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THREE PERSONS MAKE UP ONE TRUE GOD. ARE GODHEAD. ALL THREE PERSONS IN ONE GOD. ONE GOD ONLY. AND THERE ARE ENOUGH BIBLE SCRIPTURES TO PROVE THAT. . I KNOW THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO DON'T REALLY BELIEVE THAT. BUT IT IS VERY TRUE. YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BE BLESSED NOW IN JESUS NAME. BE BLESSED NOW.
One of the first things that convinced me Jesus is not God, is when Jesus got baptized God spoke down from heaven saying in my son I am well pleased. Jesus did not speak down from heaven to himself saying in myself I am well pleased
@@chelseaoguike7570 whats your proof? All early church fathers, aka the people that knew the apostles and learned from them or from Jesus directly. Believed in the Trinity.
That’s because Jesus is NOT the Father! Why do people keep saying this? They are not the same in person. They are the same in being. It couldn’t be simpler.
Yes. And Peter says he is a man. And Paul says he is a man. And God said the messiah will be a man (gen3:15). And Moses said the messiah will be a man of the people of Israel (deut18:18) and David says messiah will be a man (psm110) And as the "last Adam" he must be a man like the first Adam. Blessings.
@@ken440 True... And Christ Himself attested that He's a man Who spoke the truth of God (John8:40,NewCenturyVersion)... Isaiah also said it (Isa.53:3). David said it (Ps.80:17), Matthew (Matthew1:18,20), James (Jms5:6,HCSB), and many more.....
but he says John 10:30 "I and father are one" John8:58 Before Abraham was I am. Revelation 1:1-17 "I am the first and the last" he makes it adamant that as much he spoke the truth of God he was God himself.
What convinced me was that Satan offered Jesus the world. If Jesus is god makes no sense for Satan to offer that to God since everything belongs to him unless Jesus is not God

I was a trinitarian for 42 years, but some of those years I was growing in doubts about the trinity. Then, about 17 years ago I finally became a fully convinced Biblical Unitarian. I have been teaching the Biblical Unitarian since. I have written commentaries on all the verses the trinitarians misrepresent as proof texts for their false doctrine.
I too was a trinitarian for may years, and had growing doubts about the trinity. Finally about six months ago after much reading, study and prayer I became convinced of the Biblical Unitarian view. Do you happen to have a copy of the commentaries that you have written about the verses trinitarians use that you might share with me?
Where can I obtain your written commentaries on all the verses the trinitarians misrepresent as proof texts for their false doctrine. I would like a copy to help me look into this further. I have been looking into this for a while and I still need some help.

Very nice explanation of such a troublesome doctrine. I grew up only knowing of a trinity God until the past few years as a senior. Once the light went on, it seems so easy to read my Bible and have it make sense how Jesus always defers to His Father and worships Him and is about His business. I never understood the convoluted explanation of three parts of god and one with two different natures, yet the Jesus of the Bible always referred to himself as a man.

@@Viral_Christology Correct about 1 and 2; not so much 3. See definition of nephesh... I am a living soul. It'll be awaiting Jesus' return at the Resurrection.
If Jesus was only a man, even if the most perfect human being in the world, he cannot save us from our sin; only God can save us. In that case, we are not be compelled to believe in him. But because he is God in the flesh, he can save us from sin and we are compelled to believe in Jesus. The Bible is clear that Jesus is both God and Man. Because Jesus is both God and Man, his birth, death, resurrection and ascension have elements of mystery in them. God himself is a mystery and Jesus is no exception.
Thanks for your comment, however, there is no verse that says Jesus needed to be God to pay for the sins of mankind. In fact, Hebrews 2:17 says quite the opposite, "he needed to be like his brothers in every respect...to wipe away the sins of the people." He needed to be a human to pay the sins of humanity.
@@biblicalunitarian "He needed to be a human to pay the sins of humanity" - Exactly! that is why God incarnates Himself as human, to suffer and be killed in order to conquer death and save us, and to destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil. How else can they torture and crucify Him if He remains as God when He dwelt amongst men? The nails wouldn't be able to pierce His skin, much less torture Him. When a mere man sacrifices himself for his friends, he simply puts them out of harm physically, but not spiritually thus, their sins remain. Only the man who sacrificed himself is saved, for their is no greater LOVE you can give than to sacrifice yourself for your friends. BUT, when God sacrifices Himself for humanity (whom He considers friends, brothers and sisters), He saves them spiritually thus, everyone sins are forgiven. In summary, a mere man can only save himself from eternal damnation but not everyone. Whereas, Jesus is not only man but also God thus, everyone is saved. Man alone has no power to save us from our sins, only God. Peace and Blessings!
@@biblicalunitarian You are correct that there is no verse that says Jesus needed to be God to pay for the sins of humankind. Jesus was already God and there is no need for him to be God or to become God. But as God he had to become Man in order to pay for the sins of humankind. Hebrews 2:17 is very clear that Jesus who was God had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, except of course sin. If Jesus was only man, what was the need for him to become man again?
38 Bible Reasons Why Jesus is Not God 1- God Doesn’t Change His Nature (Malachi 3:6 2- GOD Almighty is Greater than Jesus. (John 14:28 3- No one is “Good” including Jesus. Only GOD is” Good” (Luke 18:19 4- Jesus said he doesn’t know when the Hour will come. Only GOD Knows.

How can someone be greater than God? 23- Jesus was taught by the Father (John 8:28) 24- Jesus can do nothing by himself (John 5:19, John 5:30) 25- Jesus does not even have his own doctrine (John 7:16) 26- Jesus ascended to his God (John 20:17) 27- According to Christians, Jesus died as recorded in Matthew 27:27-56 but Bible says that God is infinite Psalm 102:27-27 28- Jesus needed to Pray, Eat, Drink and Was Helped by Woman, as stated in Luke 8:1-3 but God in Bible is self-sufficient Psalm 50:12 29- The God remain the same in nature (Hebrews 1:12) 30- Jesus is the same human today, yesterday and forever (Hebrew 13:8) 31- Jesus could not saved anyone as he was even not able to save himself (Hebrews 5:1-8) 32- Jesus said he was sent to lost sheep of Israel (Matthew 15:24) 33- God can not be born and perhaps form his own creation 34- Jesus never asked people to worship him 35- Jesus did not Teach Trinity 36- God is the essence of the worship. He is the object of worship. Had Jesus been God, he would have told people to worship him. Truly, he did the exact opposite as in Matthew 15:9 37- Jesus never call his followers Christians, Paul did 38- Jesus as a servant of God (Matthew 12:18)
I'm wondering how Christians of today look at these verses and then rejects it, they don't follow Jesus, rather they follow Paul. It's genuinely messed up at how distorted Christianity really is.
1. Jesus, the Word of God, became man (John 1:14) without changing his divine nature. The incarnation is an act of God’s love, not a change in essence. 2. Jesus, in his humanity, acknowledged the Father’s greater position, but as God, he is equal in essence with the Father (Philippians 2:6). 3. Jesus’ question highlights God as the source of all goodness, but Jesus himself is sinless and divine (John 8:46). 4. Jesus, in his humanity, voluntarily limited his divine knowledge, though as God, he remains omniscient (Colossians 2:3). 5. Jesus affirmed monotheism, but the one God exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). 6. Jesus, as the incarnate Son, speaks from his human nature. In his divinity, he is one with the Father (John 10:30). 7. Jesus prayed as a perfect man and mediator while remaining fully divine. 8. Jesus, fully human, faced temptation but remained sinless, demonstrating his power over evil (Hebrews 4:15). 9. Jesus acknowledged his humanity, which coexists with his divinity (Colossians 2:9). 10. God is not inherently a man, but in the incarnation, God became man for our salvation (Philippians 2:7). 11. Jesus, as God incarnate, makes the invisible God visible (John 14:9). 12. Jesus is co-eternal with the Father, sharing in the divine nature (John 1:1). 13. Jesus fulfills the role of a prophet but is also the eternal Son of God (Hebrews 1:1-2). 14. Jesus declared his divinity explicitly (e.g., John 8:58, John 10:30). 15. Preaching was part of his mission, but his ultimate purpose was to offer himself as a sacrifice for sin (John 3:16). 16. Jesus emphasized mercy but became the perfect sacrifice to fulfill the law (Hebrews 10:10). 17. Jesus humbled himself as a servant to accomplish salvation (Philippians 2:7). 18. The title "prophet" reflects one of Jesus’ roles but does not deny his divinity (John 1:18). 19. The title "Son of Man" fulfills Messianic prophecy (Daniel 7:13-14) and emphasizes his humanity. 20. Jesus’ servanthood highlights his humility, not a denial of his divine nature. 21. Jesus taught humility through these analogies, emphasizing his obedience as a man. 22. In his human role, Jesus acknowledged the Father’s greater position while remaining equal in essence. 23. Jesus speaks of his unity with the Father, acting in perfect obedience (John 5:19). 24. Jesus emphasizes his unity and harmony with the Father. 25. In this verse, Jesus’ teachings originate from the Father, reflecting their shared essence. 26. In his humanity, Jesus ascended to the Father. As God, he remains eternally one with the Father. 27. Jesus’ divine nature did not die; his human nature experienced death for our redemption (Philippians 2:8). 28. These reflect Jesus’ humanity, which does not contradict his divinity (John 1:14). 29. Jesus’ divine nature is unchanging, even in the incarnation. 30. This affirms Jesus’ eternal nature as God. 31. Jesus willingly sacrificed himself to save humanity (John 10:18). 32. Jesus’ mission began with Israel but extended to all nations (Matthew 28:19). 33. Jesus’ birth reflects the incarnation-God taking on human nature (Luke 1:35). 34. Jesus accepted worship repeatedly (e.g., Matthew 14:33, John 9:38). 35. Jesus revealed the Trinity through his teachings (Matthew 28:19). 36. Jesus is worshiped because he is God (John 20:28). 37. The term "Christian" arose later but reflects those who follow Christ as God and Savior (Acts 11:26). 38. Jesus’ servanthood reflects his mission to fulfill the Father’s will for salvation. (John 1:14 and the Nicene Creed 325 AD)
Good for you, what convinces most people that Jesus is NOT God is when they pick up their Bible and read it wthout their pastor telling them that Jesus is the almighty !
Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time The secred text of the Bible says ye shall know them by their fruits So too that I say to my christian brothers and sisters be fruitful and multiply Best regards from a Muslim ( line of ismail )

Well said brother! Thanks for all the work you guys do! The persecution I've received on this topic alone shows me there is something spiritual to it. Maybe that's why the Bible says that the antichrist were people that deny the Father and the son. To merge them denies both and creates a belief that aligns with what the Spirit of the antichrist is said to do.

Matthew 4:6-7 (KJV), **see Jesus self declaration in verse 7** 6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the **Lord thy God** . **JESUS is GOD**
He is his own father they said. IDK I'm confused, but they are confused as well lol. They confused the terms of God in their religion, let alone anything deep in their religion.
that’s actually more evidence He’s of the same nature of God 😂 that’s like saying the cub of a bear is not a bear if Jesus is the literal child of God He is God and equal in nature with the Father
Adam was the "Son of God," and he was clearly not God so that argument doesn't work. God can create/beget humans that are not God. God's act of creation is not like the birthing process of humans. In fact, whatever he creates must not be God, because there is only one God (Deut. 6:4).
@@biblicalunitarian yes, God is one. but one what? along with the fact Jesus claimed to be the *only* begotten son and to share glory with God before the world existed (John 17:5)
What convinced me that Jesus is NOT God, was the verse Jn8:58. "Before Abraham was I AM." Because when i relied on being told in sermons and books that it showed Jesus pre existed and had no beginning and end, it was my favourite proof verse. Then one day I was seeking Gods help in understanding a verse in another part of the bible, and I came across Anthony Buzzard taking that "I AM" back to the original greek, "ego eimi" ( everywhere else in scripture translated "I am he") and showed it was just a simple statement of joining self with context of conversation. Not identifying with voices out of burning bushes. ( an angel according to Stevens testimony in Acts). I became a unitarian within hours, and then all the other proofs I knew just started falling off the high podium i had put them on. These teachings do make a difference folks.

Inspired by the scriptures, and Anthony Buzzard, I wrote the following regarding the mistranslated verse John 8:58: PART 1 Did Jesus say "I am God? Is God's name I AM? The use of uppercase letters when translating "ego eimi" in John 8:58 and "ego eimi ho on" in Exodus 3:14, is deceptive and misleads people to think Jesus is YHWH. The Greek expression, "ego eimi" is never used as a name for YAHWEH, Jesus, or anyone. The Greek in Exodus 3:14 reads "ego eimi ho on" "ego eimi" translates (I am) "ho on" translates (the one who is)." There is no connection between "ego eimi" in John 8:58 and "ego eimi ho on" in Exodus 3:14-15. Furthermore, God said to Moses, “Tell the children of Israel this: ‘I am the one who is [ego eimi ho on] Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered, my memorial to all generations. ~ Moses, Exodus 3:14-15. "I am YAHWEH, that is my name." Isaiah 42:8 The truth has been established by two witnesses. Believe it or perish. People also need to be aware that the verse numbers are not in the original Hebrew, they are added. There is no sentence breaks either. Therefore, it is improper to break up verses 14 and 15 in Exodus 3. They must be read together as one statement. Reading Exodus 3:14 and claiming the Greek expression "ego eimi ho on" is the same as "ego eimi" in John 8:58 does an injustice to the word of YHWH. The 70 plus Hebrew scholars that translated the Hebrew texts into Greek (LXX) chose to translate "EHYEH ASHER EHYEH" as "ego eimi ho on" which translates to English as "I am the one who is" The next verse tells us that the "WHO" is "YAHWEH." Should we ignore the 70 or more Hebrew scholars who all agreed to the above translation? Jesus NEVER EVER says I am YHWH. Jesus tells us his Father is greater then he is, and greater than ALL. In John 8:58 Jesus was declaring himself to be the Messiah who was prophesied to come before Abraham existed. He was not declaring himself to be God. CONTEXT is needed to understand this final declaration by Jesus that comes at the end of a long conversation. The Greek expression is "ego eimi." This expression is not a name for anyone. JOHN 4: 25 The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.” 26 Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he (ego eimi).” [the Messiah]. JOHN 7: 28 So Jesus cried out while teaching in the temple, saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. And I have not come on my own, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know. 29 I know him because I am from him, and he sent me.” 31 But many of the multitude believed in him, and they said, “When the Christ [Messiah] comes, will he do more signs than those that this man has done?” [It's a rhetorical question with an obvious answer. Jesus is the Messiah and there is no other like him]. JOHN 8: 18. I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.” [proof Jesus is not the Father YHWH]. 19. Therefore they said to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.” [people who think Jesus is YHWH do not know Jesus or the Father. They worship a god of foolish men's own making]. 24. That is why I said to you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am the one, you will die in your sins.” [I am the one, meaning the Messiah, the one who was prophesied to come before Abraham existed]. The Bible is quite clear on this fact. Deuteronomy 18:18; Genesis 3:15 25. So they said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning. [this is a no brainer. Jesus declared himself to be the Messiah from the beginning and he proved it by fulfilling prophecy and doing miracles]. 28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am the one. And I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things. [again, proving Jesus is not YHWH. People who think Jesus is YHWH, know nothing of the Father or the Son. They are delusional. YHWH has not revealed Himself or His Son to them. They Follow a Jesus of their own making]. 42. Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; for I have not come on my own, but he sent me. [Jesus is not YHWH....proof text]. 43. Why do you not understand what I am saying? Because you are not able to hear my word. [People who willfully believe Jesus is YHWH are not able to hear the words of Jesus, they are spiritually dead and willfully ignorant]. 44. You are of your father the Devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar, and the father of them. 45. But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me. 46. Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe me? 47. The one who is of God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not of God.” 54. Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’ 55. And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I were to say, ‘I do not know him,’ then I would be like you: a liar. But I know him, and keep his word. 56. Your father Abraham was overjoyed that he would see my day, and he saw it, and rejoiced.” REV Bible Translation gets it right. ["saw" means KNEW and UNDERSTOOD the prophecies concerning Jesus coming] 57. Therefore, the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” [they misunderstood Jesus words]. 58. Before Abraham existed, I am ("he"), or, ("the one"). WHO? The one Jesus declared himself to be from the beginning (John 4:25-26; John 7:28-31; John 8:18-19-24-25-28; John 8:42-47). Jesus said he is the Messiah who was prophesied to come. Jesus is not YHWH. He never said he was YHWH. That is the evidence. That is the CONTEXT. END OF PART 1
What convinced me is that God is not the author of confusion. Trinity is a topic of confusion and chaos among the people. I have always believed that no matter what the truth is, it must be simple and easy to understand. In God's great Salvation Plan, he would not make things difficult or unusual for people to believe. Trinity does not hold up to that standard for me.
This a very good presentation. Good biblical research. Once we have this foundation established, I want to take it further. What do you now say about the subject of the Sovereignty of God.
"1Jn 2:22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son." To deny that the man , Jesus, was the Christ (an anointed man) is antichrist doctrine. Jesus was not God. "Rev 3:21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. . It is not a great feat for God to overcome. But it is huge... for the man, Jesus, to overcome. Thus, he sat down beside his Father. If Jesus is God... can he sit down beside himself?

Because Moses and Noah do not render divine judgement on all creation (living and dead) or forgive sins. The prophets warn about God‘s judgement but are not the one executing it (like Jesus). Only God alone can render divine judgement. see: John 5:27, 2 Timothy 4:1, Matthew 9:6

There is no person called the word in John's prologue. Not in John 1:14 either. The word in John 1:14 CAME TO HUMANITY and dwelt IN US.....that is the correct compatible translation. "kai ho logos sarx egeneto kai eskēnōsen en hēmin" = and the word CAME TO HUMANITY and dwelt IN US. Humanity = the human kind of flesh (sarx). The word came to us by way of YHWH placing his words into Jesus and Jesus delivered them to us for the purpose of DWELLING IN US. Again. their is no second god person called the word in the Bible. Revelation 19:13 applies to YHWH, not Jesus. I cover that in part 2 of my free commentary on John's prologue. John 1:1 a. In the beginning was the word (ho logos), b. and the word (ho logos) was integral to God(ton theon), c. and divine (theos) was the word (ho logos). Alt: "and the word (ho logos) was divine (theos)." James Moffatt, former professor of Greek and New Testament Exegesis at Mansfield College in Oxford, England, and author of the well-known Moffatt Bible, agrees. He translated John 1:1c as, “the logos was divine.” In 1:1b, Ton Theon with the definite article is properly translated to English as "the God" with an uppercase "G" to signify it is referring to YHWH the only true God. Translators remove the definite article and use uppercase "G" to make God a proper noun referring to YHWH, the only true God (John 17:3). In 1:1c, Theos without the definite article is normally translated as god with a lowercase "g" and is sometimes translated as "divine." The divine translation more accurately applies here since there is no other deity mentioned. In John 1:1 all three instances of "ho logos" do not refer to another person or lessor god. The word is YHWH's word, and more specifically the writer is referring to none other than the GOSPEL which was in YHWH's forethought from eternity. The use of theos without the definite article, sandwiched between "ton theon" and "ho logos," indicates "theos" is being used as a predicate adjective to describe the spirit nature and qualities of YHWH and His word as being the same spirit, life, light, eternal, holy, and divine Logos. Both YHWH and His Logos are DIVINE. "Ho Logos" is an attribute and possession of YHWH, not a person, not a lessor god, and not Jesus. There is no Biblical basis for concluding that the second use of theos (without the definite article) is referring to a second person whose name is the word. The Author does not write: In the beginning was Jesus. No other deity besides YHWH is mentioned in John 's Gospel. Jesus never refers to himself as "ho logos" and neither do the Apostles. Quote: "The second use of theos in John 1:1c serves as a predicate adjective rather than as a predicate noun." [citation: Maximillian Zerwick, Biblical Greek, Rome: Scripta Ponificii Instituti Biblici, 1963, p. 55, par. 171; p. 57, par. 176. Regarding John 1:1b "pros ton theon" It is incorrect to insist that "pros" points to another person (Jesus) as having an eternal preexistent relationship with YHWH. What John is telling us is exactly what the Bible teaches: the Gospel is of the same eternal and divine spirit nature as what YHWH is. There is an eternal relationship between YHWH and His word without the word being the person of Jesus. According to Bauer’s Greek-English Lexicon the preposition pros with the accusative, as in John 1:1, 2, is a marker of movement or orientation toward someone or something. The context determines if it is a person or a something. Pros can mean a number of things such as, according to Bauer's: toward, towards, to, near, at, during, aiming at, striving toward, against, for, to indicate a connection by marking a point of reference, with reference to/regard to (about, because of, with respect to, which concerns, which belongs to, what makes for, in accordance with, in order to, for the purpose of),in adverbial expressions (“tends toward” Jas. 5:4) by, at, near. Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon adds the definition “pertaining to.” Also, various translations render pros with the accusative as: Concerning, as respects, pertaining to, of, even to. Furthermore, the Greek word generally rendered as ‘with’ is para and not pros. The assumption that "pros" means there is another person "with" God in John 1:1 can only be due to TRADITION. The mystics, Gnostics, and Philosophers like Philo infected the early church with a lessor god and /or logos theory that conflicts with the Bible. People who insist on this interpretation overlook the Biblical evidence that "pros" can also be translated as "with" when referring to a something, rather than a someone. (Examples below). NOTE: The LXX renders pros ton theon as “to God.” Eighteen other occurrences of pros ton theon in the New Testament Scriptures are translated as: “to God,” “toward God,” “related to God” or “pertaining to God.” For example, many translations render the phrase pros ton theon in Hebrews 5:2 as: “pertaining to God...” (NASB); “in relation to God...” (ESV); “related to God...” (NIV). Similarly, in Hebrews 2:17 and Romans 15:17. The same or similar phrases are used in a number of other texts. Bauer’s choice of phrase for Romans 15:17 is “that which concerns God” in its rendering of "ta pros ton theon." Regardless, there is Biblical evidence that "pros" can be translated as "with" when referring to a something integral to God such as his spirit, nature, attributes, word, wisdom, power, love, etc.. However, in my opinion: "integral to God" is more accurate. Truly God's word is an integral part of who God is (the self revealing one). Job 10:12-16 informs us that God’s attributes such as life, love, wisdom, power are with Him. Isa 40.10; 62.11 states “His reward is with Him.” 2 Kings 3:12 states “The word of the Lord is with him.” In John 1:1c the Greek phrase "pros ton theon" refers to things and not a person. Other examples make this point clear. We have:
“things with God” (Heb 2:17; 5:1; Rom 17:15) “conscience with God” (Acts 24:16) “confidence with God” (2 Cor 3:4; 1 John 3:21) “peace with God” (Rom 5:1) “Faith with God.” (1 Thessalonians 1:8) Jesus cannot be read into the text of John 1:1 as being YHWH or the word because YHWH and His word are not begotten or born. Jesus was begotten and born. John 6:63 states God's word is spirit, meaning: of the same divine eternal substance. God is a spirit. (John 4:24) God's word is spirit. (John 6:63) God's word does not become flesh. (John 3:6) God's word is placed INTO Jesus. Deuteronomy 18:18. Jesus, the Son of God, is not the "word" (logos) of John 1:1. Rather, Jesus spoke his Father's logos....the very words he said belonged to his FATHER. (John 7:15-17; John 12:49-50; John 14:10; John 14:24). The belief that the word of God became the flesh of Jesus conflicts with the Bible which teaches us that the word of God came THROUGH Jesus to humanity to dwell in our hearts and minds and transform us. The Logos of God was placed into Jesus by God. Deuteronomy 18:18; Acts 3:22
@WilliamJonesBilly Jesus is certainly Lord ! you will read in Acts2:36 where and when God made Jesus lord. But Jesus is NOT God !!

@@lb7625 The name means salvation but it does not mean Jesus is God. Here is a little Bible lesson about names: *Emmanuel means God is with us* Matthew 1:22-23 In the Bible, a title or a name is not necessarily saying something about the one who bears it, but rather about the God who anoints them and whom they serve. For example, Jeremiah means 'YHWH will exalt' Samuel means ‘his name is YHWH’; Daniel means ‘YHWH is my judge’; Ezekiel means ‘YHWH strengthens‘; Elijah. Means "YHWH is my Elohim." Nehemiah means ‘YHWH comforts’; Joshua means ‘YHWH is salvation’; Josiah means ‘YHWH supports’; Hezekiah means ‘YHWH strengthens’. There are many more examples to demonstrate the point. Emmanuel, refers to the God who begat Jesus and anointed him as His Messiah. No one in Jesus' day would have thought he was God in human form. Obviously, based on the words of His Father which Jesus spoke, his miracles, and his powers, God had visited his people through his prophet and Son Jesus. see John 3:1-2

Show us your Greek interpretation/translation of Acts 20:28 and 1 Tim. 3:16. God's own blood was shed on the Cross and God was manifest in the flesh. Strong's fully concurs.
NEWSFLASH; ALMIGHTY GOD does NOT bleed! ACTS 20:28, Is simply making reference to the one who "Obeyed" his GOD and FATHER, in Willingly dying on the Cross. PHIL.2:8-11. Jesus was a MAN, ( ACTS 2:22-24/GAL.1:1/ROM.5:15-19/1 TIM.2:5, ETC., therefore, HE could Bleed. ALMIGHTY GOD IS SPIRIT, HE does NOT consist of "FLESH!" And HE doesn't reduce HIMSELF to the Lowly State of mere mortal. Scripture TELLS us what HE did. And what HE did was.....HE, "Raised up a Son, by way of human birth," to die for our sins. GAL.4:4-7. Jesus was, "Born of a woman.....Born under the Law. " WHOSE "Law?" The Law of GOD HIMSELF. You don't understand the usage of the word, "Manifest. " It simply Means, "Showed Forth. " In other words, GOD revealed the Salvation of man "THROUGH, " HIS, "Only Begotten Son. " Once AGAIN; ALMIGHTY GODS does NOT BLEED! Just goes to show how RIDICULOUS your doctrine really IS!! And you don't even SEE it! GOODNESS!!
Actually, if you Knew your, Bible a bit better, you'd KNOW, GOD HIMSELF is Not "Flesh, 0:05 0:05 " not in ANY Sense of the word! Obviously, ACTS 20:28, Is making reference of Christ, who offered himself as the, "LAMB of GOD." GOD HIMSELF is never refered to as a, "LAMB!" And Jesus is also called, "The Son of man." This too, is NOT a designation that was ever given to GOD HIMSELF. ALSO-------Jesus is called the, "2ND ADAM, " because the First ADAM failed to represent his GOD and FATHER. Obviously, ALMIGHTY GOD is never refered to in this way! 1 TIM.2:5, Draws a Clear, and DISTINCT Difference between GOD and Christ. Jesus, on the one hand, is called, the, "MEDIATOR between GOD and Men.......the MAN, Christ Jesus. " One is the, "Mediator," or, "Go between, " the Other is HE that is giving DIRECTION to the Mediator. Also; In PSALM 16:10, Jesus is compared to a, "PROPHET like unto Moses. " We see the N.T., Fulfillment in ACTS 2:27. LUKE 24:39, Is where Jesus tells the Frightened Disciples, that he is NOT a SPIRIT. And this was AFTER both his Resurrection and Glorification! And there are MANY such Contradictions to the, "Jesus is GOD, " Theology. If GOD the FATHER isn't the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT, then just What IS HE? Jesus, on the other hand, is NEVER Portrayed as a SPIRIT, much less, the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT! This automatically illuminates him as GOD!

The problem is you think Jesus was only a human man nothing more . Jesus was the son of God before he was born in this world as a human . Jesus was with God before this earth was created . He had to come to earth in human form to fo fill duties in the flesh . And no he was not a prophet. Lets not forget Christianity was there 600 years before Islam religion came along . Jesus can not be at 2 places at once on earth . Meaning he couldn't be the son of God and a prophet at same time . He was the son of God 600 years before Islam religion existed.

Great topic. Also consider O.T. "God is not the Son of Man", or what's the point of Jesus being tempted for forty days if God cannot be tempted. Or consider the transfiguration, if Jesus is God He wouldn't have needed Moses and Elijah counsel and comfort. Or consider 1 Corinthians 15:20-28.
I’ve just come to this realisation. Jesus was a flesh and blood man. He had to be born of the physical seed (sperma) of David. Jesus could never have been our High Priest if He was God. The High Priest had to make atonement for his own sin first and that’s exactly what Jesus did: Hebrews 5:3-4 3Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for HIS OWN SINS just as he does for those of the people. 4And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

Biblical unitarian, There's no such Biblical thing as a Biblical unitarian. You are making things up, things that oppose the Bible. The Bible and the Biblical Greek prove that Jesus is God. It was the human side of Jesus that physically died, Not His Spirit and Soul. Answer this question, if there's only one person in the One God, then who was the God in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself when God the Father left Jesus? One person in the One God, was in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself, and another person in the One God who left Jesus.
You seem to be taking the time frame of 2 Cor. 5:19 and making it occur at the same time as Matt. 27:46 (my God my God, why have you forsaken me). These are two completely different passages which occur at different times. There is nothing in 2 Cor. 5:19 to suggest that "God was in Christ in the moments leading up to Jesus' death, when Jesus said God had forsaken him." Not only is this contradictory, there is nothing in either text to suggest this. There is simply nothing close to teaching what you said in scripture: "One person in the One God, was in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself, and another person in the One God who left Jesus." I can find my definition of God in the Bible, "For us there is one God, the Father (1 Cor. 8:6), can you find your definition of God in the Bible?
@biblicalunitarian it's easy to see that you are inspired by the devil to spread his lies. 2 Cor 5: 19, clearly says God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. It has to be when Jesus was on the cross. Matthew and Mark clearly says Jesus was forsaken by God. Proving Two distinct persons in the One God. So, stop telling lies and answer the question.
As a muslim I believe jesus is mighty prophet of god sent to children of Israel ... To convey the right path and beleive in one god like all other came across prophet moses Abraham ... Jesus call god elaha in Aramaic language
Jesus was sent as a prophet yes, but especially as a saviour to put away sin, by the sacrifice of himself. All mankind is in bondage to sin. So he said: 'Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.

Then his Lord chose him, and turned to him with forgiveness, and gave him guidance." (Quran 20:121-122) Adam and Eve were instructed not to eat from a certain tree. Satan deceitfully tricked them into disobeying their Lord and as a result: "(God) said: 'Get down (from the Garden), one of you an enemy to the other [i.e. Adam, Eve, and Satan].

@@umerkhan6257 The reason why it was necessary for Jesus to die, was first of all that he had to overcome our sinful human nature. Hebrews 2:14 says that in dying he destroyed that which had the power of death. The cause of sin had to be destroyed in order for us to be properly forgiven. When a man sinned God required the shedding of blood for the remission of that sin. This would have involved the death of the man each time someone sinned. So, God provided the animal that its blood might be shed instead. But, why was blood so important in this process? Because the life of the body is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11). Therefore what God was actually requiring was the life of the man. When he sinned his life was to be returned again to God. So, when the blood of an animal was offered upon the altar, it signified the life of the man being given back to God. However, the death of an animal was only a temporary solution. It had no lasting effect because the animal itself was mortal. It's life was temporary, therefore it's cleansing effect was only temporary. It needed the blood of a sinless man, who would live forever, to give everlasting cleansing. So, when Jesus died as an offering for sin, it brought an end to all other offerings. Because his one offering brought eternal redemption from sin. In addition to this, the New Covenant of forgiveness which Jesus introduced, had to be dedicated with blood, like the Old Covenant was. The Old Covenant was dedicated with the blood of an unblemished animal, which only made it effective temporarily. But, the New Covenant was dedicated with the blood of the sinless man, which gave it everlasting effect.
@@eddieyoung2104 Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time The secred text of the Bible says ye shall know them by their fruits So too that I say to my christian brothers and sisters be fruitful and multiply Best regards from a Muslim ( line of ismail )
@@theguyver4934 I agree that the Trinity is a later addition, and I don't believe in it. Hell, the Bible teaches is a place of burial. Original sin, as the Bible teaches it, is the nature inherited from Adam. The lust of the flesh which causes us to sin. And Jesus spoke about the things which come from within us and defile us (Mark 7:20-23). So, if Jesus taught it, then that's early enough for Christianity. The atonement is also mentioned at the beginning of the gospel record, by John the Baptist. He said about Jesus, that he was the lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). Of Ishmael God says that he will make him a great nation (Genesis 21:18), and the Muslims truly are a numerous people, and Islam has had great empires. Nevertheless, God said to Abraham, 'in Isaac shall thy seed be called', and 'in thy seed shall all nations of the earth be blessed'. Ultimately Jesus is that promised seed, through whom all people can come unto the Father, the Almighty God. And it is through Jesus, because only he dealt with the problem of our sinful nature which separates us from God. Only he destroyed it by his perfect obedience and his death. If we don't believe in that, then all we have to make us righteous is good works. And by those nobody is made righteous, because one sin is enough to make you a sinner.

Absolutely true. Deity of Jesus is a false doctrine. Goes away from the simplicity of the Gospel. The Gospel is accessible to everyone to understand. When the theology is too complicated so that we have to go to special human beings with more Brain to understand then it's a warning. Jesus be like a little child. Do not complicate the truth.
Not everyone is going to fully understand the gospels. Theology being complicated just shows how complex God is and how incomprehensible he truly is. Just because you don't get it and you can't grasp it doesn't mean its false. The truth isn't for everybody but it can be for you if you have an open mind and ask God for Guidance.

When Jesus or anyone dies, their souls don’t get destroyed, it gets separated from the body. When Jesus died, his soul got separated from his body, but he still had teo natures then he resurrected and reunited with his body.
yep the problem is what they think the definition of death is. if it's a separation of body and soul, can God experience a human death by adding a human nature, come as a man, and then have that flesh destroyed? ofcourse. *editing this because i can't comment again* www.youtube.com/@biblicalunitarian the hope being the resurrection wouldn't negate the definition of death. it's the final part of salvation, ofcourse that's the hope, to finally receive eternal life. now which definition do you use as death? do we cease to exist? These verses show physical death is a separation of body and soul: Matthew 10:28 (Jesus detailing God's power as being able to destroy both body & soul in comparison to creatures who can ONLY destroy body. obviously meaning the soul isn't destroyed in death. a separation...) Genesis 35:16-19 (Rachel's death detailed as her soul departing) Matthew 27:50 (Jesus dying detailed as Him "giving up His spirit/ghost") Ecclesiastes 12:7 (dust returns to dust, spirit to God.. separation) James 2:26 (body without spirit = death) Revelation 6:9-11 (john seeing the souls of the martyrs under the alter) God is immortal, Jesus died, therefore He cannot be God. this makes sense without context someone can make the same argument and read 1 Kings 8:46 (detailing that all men sin) in comparison with 2 Corinthians 5:21 (saying Jesus is without sin) and say "therefore, Jesus cannot be a man". it's like a cherry picked argument from a muslim who fears context.
I used to believe that definition of death as well, until I realized that it was a very platonic idea, not a Jewish/Christian one. The biblical hope was not to "die" so that they could be with God in their soul. Rather, it was to be resurrected (1 Cor. 15; 2 Tim. 2:11; Rom. 8:11). I really would ask you to consider, do you realize that by using your definition of death, you have changed the meaning such that it now means to "live" just in a soul and not a body. Do you see how dangerous that is? It is like changing "fat" to mean "skinny." Regardless of your meaning of death, it still doesn't get around the Trinitarian problem. However you define death, God cannot die (1 Tim. 6:16; 1 Tim. 1:17) to be "immortal" means you cannot die, so if Jesus died, he is not God.
The problem with that for classical trinitarian Christians is that they believe Jesus' body is also Divine. They don't believe he was a Godly soul in a human body-I'm pretty sure that's considered a heresy.

@adamthemuslim-x6t ….im not denying Jesus wasn’t a man. I’m just saying he wasn’t merely a man but God in human form Here’s what confuses me. If Jesus wasn’t God why did he accept or take on Godly attributes. One thing that always stood out to me was worship and how the angles and prophets of old would always defer worship and remind them only God is worthy of worship But I’ve never seen Jesus in the scriptures ever deny the worship being given to him. Either Jesus is conceited and not a righteous man. But that’s blasphemous So then Jesus is worthy of worship, but how so when God alone is worthy of worship? I also don’t get how you’re gonna be baptized in the father son and Holy Spirit if the father literally is the source of the other two. Coequal or triune nature seems to better encapsulate this idea Matthew 28:19: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” I await your response
God cannot be tempted, Jesus was tempted in all points without sin, when we really see Jesus as a man our respect and awe for Him rises immensely for He did what you and I are faced with every day and He overcame. We seem to succumb at times. He beat the devil at his game, including death, for God His Father raised Him from the dead! Great video, you go Biblical Unitarian!!!!
Please re-read the following OT passages and ask your question again: Ex 17:2 Duet 6:16 Make 3:15. If Jesus isn’t the Son of God (God the Son) who is He? Why do we see clearly in scripture the titles, actions and attributes of God?
Yes, its so simple the truth, and yet the truth is almost impossible for the deceived. May I please add The Biblical Facts Jesus Is Not GOD Or An Angel, Or Pre-existed His flesh! By Simon Brown In the beginning was GOD's word, not GOD's Son, John 1:1, Genesis 1: 3 And God said. Jesus is The (Word of GOD), NOT GOD the Word, John 1:14, Revelation 19:13. GOD did not become flesh, or is He a MAN, or a Son of MAN. The Word of GOD became the MAN Jesus, Numbers 23:19, John 1:14. If Jesus were Michael the Archangel, John 1:14 would say: and Michael the Archangel became flesh. If Jesus were GOD the Father, John 1:14 would say: And GOD the Father became flesh. The True Jesus was foreknown, not Pre-existing, 1 Peter 1:20. Nowhere in the whole Bible does it say Jesus was going ''BACK'' or ''RETURNING'' to the Father. John 13:3,John 16:28. In the beginning GOD spoke through the prophets, not through the Son Hebrews 1:1. GOD spoke through His SON in the last days, not in the beginning of days Hebrews 1:2. GOD The Son cannot be the SON of GOD, because The Son would instead be the Son of Himself. GOD gave His SON, not Himself. John 3:16. If the Father were the SON, why would the Father need to come as the SON? Why would we need a Mediator to get to GOD, if Jesus were already GOD? No one has ever seen GOD at any time, John 1:1, 1 John 4:12, contrary to the fact that Jesus has been seen thousands of times. Jesus has a GOD, so Jesus cant be that GOD. Humans and Angels must not worship Angels, proving Jesus was not an Angel. Revelation 22:9. The Only Begotten Son was Begotten, GOD is not Begotten, but always was. The true Jesus was BORN from GOD, not from eternity. Jesus is The (Son of Man), GOD is not a Son of man Numbers 23:19 Jesus must be a MAN and not GOD, to be a Mediator between GOD and Man. Jesus is the second and last perfect Adam, so as Adam did not pre-exist, nor did the second, and last perfect Adam. Jesus freely gave His life, which would not be possible if Jesus were GOD. Jesus is never called The Almighty GOD, but the SON of the Almighty GOD, John 10:36. The Almighty GOD never ever said He was the Son, just as the Son never ever said He was GOD. Jesus said He could do nothing on His own proving He was not Almighty GOD. Jesus will hand over the world back to GOD, but should be back to Himself if Jesus were already GOD. GOD is ONE person, that's why GOD is called The ''ONE TRUE GOD'' John 17:3. THREE separate persons who are each GOD, makes THREE GODS, and not One GOD. Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say GOD is THREE persons. In John 14:11 Jesus tells us He is "IN" the Father and the Father is ''IN'' Him. If Jesus were GOD that would make TWO GODS. Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say the Holy Spirit is a separate person. There is no separate Holy Spirit in John 1:1, or John 10:30, or on GOD's throne, or anywhere in the whole Bible. Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say Jesus is the creator. Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say Jesus was GOD and a MAN, or had two natures. A Pre-existing Jesus could not be The True Christ, because The True Christ came into existence in the women's womb as The Son of MAN. Christ never means I AM GOD, but means (The anointed one of GOD). In John 8:58 Jesus said: (I am). NOT I Existed. John 8:58, (I am) means (I am the one), as seen in John 4:6. NOT I AM GOD, or ALIVE before being born. Notice how Jesus tells us in John 8:56 Abraham your father rejoiced in that he should see My day--and he saw it and rejoiced." Did you notice how nothing was said by Jesus saying He was ALIVE and saw Abraham, which should be the case if Jesus meant what most believe that Jesus was GOD or ALIVE with GOD before He was Begotten? Thanks to GOD through Christ! Because of GOD, Jesus will live for eternity, proving Jesus is not GOD. Because of Jesus, we can come to know the One True GOD and father of creation. Because of Jesus, the saved will live for eternity, so lets thank GOD for Jesus, for eternity. What GOD and Christ do you know?
You say a lot of truths but you have a misunderstanding of what trinitarians believe. You keep coming back to that Jesus can't be God the Father, and this is exactly what they believe. They don't "confuse the three persons of the deity, so the Son is not the Father and neither is the Father the Son." Actually, they don't believe that God is a person at all. They believe that God is an essence, and this essence (God) consists of three seperate persons. That's why the classical trinitarian formula is: God is three in person but one in essence, three who's but one what. Might sound crazy but this is actually what they believe.
@@RufusBlad Excuse me, I know very well what the Trinitarians say and believe. I was a Trinitarian for 10 deceived years, who also taught the Trinity was true, and at one time used the same scriptures they us. The PAGAN TRINITY is ONE God as three separate persons. The PAGAN TRINITY was adopted by the Catholics from the TRINITY pagan gods.
@@RufusBladIn this trinitarian view there can be no son and no father, these become arbitrary meaningless titles to two of three 'gods' .......you could call them John Paul and Ringo, makes no difference. Ask a trinitarian if God has a Son, or if Jesus is the son of his Father, they can't just say yes.
@@Shilly-Mcshillface Yeah, I totally agree. In a trinitarian mind God is not his father, but rather that's a quality God has. They might not say this, but through what they say and teach you see it. That's why you hear things like: "you have to get to know God as a father", which is actually a pretty strange statement because if you get to know God you will automatically know the Father. But for a trinitarian God is three persons you can get to know, and these three persons has different roles. So instead of God as a divine being being our Father (which would mean 100% of that being is our father) the trinitarian believes that God is a being in which the person God the Father is our Father. So in the end, only 33% of the trinitarian God is the Father. I once listened to a sermon called "The God I never knew" speaking of the Holy Spirit. It must seem odd that a person can say he knows God (Jesus), but then say that he doesn't know the Holy Spirit (for him also God) and therefore have to read books about getting to know the Holy Spirit. In the end "Father, Son and Holy Spirit" are just meaningless titles, just as you said.
The reasons a false belief is difficult to challenge is because of fear. False beliefs almost always cover emotions of grief which people don’t want to feel. Trinity isn’t nusf one issue. The very nature of God suddenly becomes more loving and simple. There is a lot of grief in this, because that opens the door to the fact God might not have needed to sacrifice anyone, and also that we may all ACTUALLY be equal children in gods eyes. All children of God. Just as the bible says. Most Christians use evidence of sacrifice as ways to be very unloving in their relationship demanding sacrifices of each other. That’s also thrown out of the window. It also makes the very. Orion if Jesus seem more powerful. A man attained that? Suddenly it opens the door that god loves us enough that WE might attain that also!
Christ never claimed to be god. He claimed to be the son of man. In John 16:11 He said that the spirit has condemned the prince of this world , according to judgement. To be the son of god , that automatically makes you a prince. Which is Satan , with their pretentious title the sons of god. Christ is a prophet , not god. But the spirit was working with him. He is our brother not our god.

If you're faking it then you are answerable to Him, if not then good for you but for me and the rest of the Christians out there, we believe in his words in the Bible thus, I can only give you scriptures to attest my words or comments. JESUS IS GOD When Satan tempted Jesus in Matthew 4:7, only the two of them were talking. I know Jesus was quoting a scripture (that's pretty obvious) but He only did that to remind Satan who He is, by saying with authority "You shall not tempt the Lord your God". Now, tell me. Who was Satan tempting at that moment? If Jesus were just a mere man, or were just a prince or lesser than God then He would be committing a serious blasphemy against God (His Father) by just uttering those words to Satan, don't you think? Then, He can no longer be called righteous and pleasing to God and find favor in Him because blasphemy is a sin. Since, Jesus is without sin thus, He was surely telling the Truth because there are no lies in Him, for He is the Truth. "I am the way and the truth and the life..." - (John 14:6). Peace and Blessings!

Can you imagine my disappointment when I saw them in person ; they were trying to recruit me. Where as the beings of light who I did speak to. Were as god , but they were adamant they were men like myself. Only of a higher faith. Satan and his human men call themselves by a pretentious title ... the sons of god. You are raised in lies. I was taught from childhood what those lies are by the spirit. And before you go there. NO!!;. Satan would never EVER!! pose as a being of light. And give you proof there is a god , then you repent , and all that.
@@TheWitness-fx4xqThis is the first time ever I hear that interpretation of Matthew 4:7. It is normally understood as a response of Jesus to Satan's claim that he could just throw himself down the pinnacle of the temple and God would send His angels so that he wouldn't get hurt. So Jesus then says: "Again it is written: 'You shall not put the Lord your God to the test'". This would then be something Jesus says as a response to Satan but which applies to himself. "No, I won't throw myself down because it is also written..." This interpretation is also supported by the next temptation to fall down and worship Satan. It wouldn't make sence if Jesus would say to Satan, who is telling him to worship him: "No Satan, YOU shall only worship the Lord YOUR God." As in the second tempation, Jesus is using the truth from the Scripture to fight of Satan's temptations. So even if he is responding to Satan, the application is to himself. Jesus basically says: I shall not only live by bread alone (first tempation), I shall not tempt the Lord my God (second temptation), I shall only worship the Lord my God". Also, this happens while Jesus is being tempted in the dessert, which proofs he isn't God because it is written: God cannot be tempted by evil (James 1:13)."
In John 8:58, Jesus is not declaring himself to be God. Many think this verse references Exodus 3:14, where God says "I AM THAT I AM" (according to the KJV). However, Jesus did not use that expression in John 8:58. He used the Greek phrase “ego eimi,” meaning “I am,” which is commonly used throughout the Bible. For example, in John 9:9, the man cured of blindness by Jesus says “ego eimi” to identify himself. Peter also uses the same phrase in Acts 10:21: "I am the one you are looking for." This shows that “ego eimi” was not a claim to divinity. Some translations offer a more accurate rendering of John 8:58, such as “I existed before Abraham was born.” Rather than claiming to be God, Jesus was claiming to have existed before Abraham. There are many scriptures showing that Jesus did not claim to be God. For example, in John 17:3, Jesus prays to the Father calling him “the only true God,” and in John 10:36 he only claims to be God's Son.
I agree with your theology. But how does Col 2:9, Is 9:6 and Mtt 1:23 fit in with your understanding. Though Jesus is not intrinsically God, the Bible says He will be called "God with us", "the Mighty God", "the Everlasting Father" and the fulness of Deity dwells in Him. Could you help me understand how you see this?
I will respond to each of those verse you quoted. First Colossians 2:9 also see Colossians 1:19 In Colossians 2:9 the Greek word "theotes" is incorrectly translated as “Deity” or “Godhead” in most English Bibles. Deity of course means God from the Latin word Deus. This conflicts with many unambiguous verses in the Bible. The Greek word "theotes" occurs only once in the Bible. A variation "theiotes" is found in Romans 1:20 where it is also improperly translated as "Godhead" in some English Bibles. The correct rendering in English is "divine nature." The word "Godhead" is a trinitarian invention. "Godhead" (KJV) is a trinitarian concept, which is why it is found in most English Bibles and only in one verse (Colossians 2:9) To understand the meaning of theotes we have to consider the context and how the first century Greek speaking Colossians understood the meaning of "theotes."
Other translations have theotes translated as: "divine plenitude" Mace New Testament "Divine Nature" Catholic Public Domain Version "God's nature" Weymouth New Testament "divine nature" Good News translation "God's nature" Holman Christian Standard Bible "God's nature" Christian Standard Bible "divinity" Smith's Literal Translation The above translations demonstrate the correct meaning of the verse is: "the fullness of YHWH's divine nature dwells in Jesus." EIther way you choose, the KJV rendering or the above, neither means Jesus is YHWH. Liddell and Scott's Greek lexicon for ancient Greek translates "theotes" as “divinity, divine nature.” This is the meaning the Colossians would have perceived from Paul's use of "theotes." Paul would have understood the word "theotes" the same way the Colossians understood its meaning in their culture. Paul was not presenting them with a new definition of the word "theotes." If he was, he would have said so and he would have given an explanation for any such change in meaning. Imposing modern views on the text while ignoring the contemporary language and views of Paul's time is eisegesis, not exegesis. Paul wrote his letters in Koine Greek, common Greek. "For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body." Colossians 2:9 REV Bible. This translation conveys the correct meaning, although "the fullness of the divine nature" is my preference, as this is how the Colossians would have read the verse. The "Fullness of God" or "Fullness of Deity" relates to Jesus being filled with YHWH's holy spirit “without measure,” (SEE: John 3:34). Clearly Jesus had the fullness of the “divine nature” dwelling in him. This is what Paul is stating in 1 Colossians 2:9. Does this mean Jesus is God? For those who think so, what about the next verse? *_"So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority."_* Colossians 2:10 The same is said about every Christian elsewhere in the Bible (Ephesians 3:19; and 2 Peter. 1:4). Since believers are complete through their union with Jesus, these verses cannot be saying Jesus is God without his followers being God also. The fulness of God is another way of saying "being full of God's spirit." John states: *_“.......for God gives him the spirit without limit."_* John 3:34 Paul states: *_“God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him.”_* Colossians 1:19 *_"And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."_* Ephesians 3:19 Colossians 2:10; Ephesians 3:19; and 2 Peter 1:4 tells us (believers) that we have that same fullness, so verse 9 does not convey the idea that Jesus is God.
Next I will respond to Matthew 1:23: *Emmanuel-God with us?* Matthew 1:22-23 The Brown-Driver-Briggs lexicon says the meaning of Immanuel is *‘with us is God.’* Does this mean Jesus is God? No! In the Bible, a title or a name is not necessarily saying something about the one who bears it, but rather about the God who anoints them and whom they serve. For example, Samuel means ‘his name is God’; Daniel means ‘God is my judge’; Ezekiel means ‘God strengthens‘; Nehemiah means ‘Yah comforts’; Joshua means ‘Yahweh is salvation’; Josiah means ‘Yah supports’; Hezekiah means ‘Yah strengthens’. There are many more examples to demonstrate the point. Immanuel, refers to the God who begat Yahshua and anointed him Messiah. No one in Yahshua's day would have thought he was God in human form. Obviously, based on the words of His Father which Yahshua spoke, his miracles, and his powers, God had visited his people through his prophet and Son Yahshua. see John 3:1-
Now I will deal with Isaiah 9:6-7 *ISAIAH 9:6-7* The corrected translation from the REV Bible 6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty Hero, Father of the Coming Age, Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end. He will reign on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to sustain it with justice and with righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of Yahweh of Armies will perform this. REV Bible. ISAIAH 9:6-7, a prophecy of the coming Messiah. Also see Deuteronomy 18:18 which makes it clear that the Messiah will be a prophet like Moses that YHWH raises up from the Israelites. Also note that Jesus was prophesied to be a descendant of David. Can YAHWEY be a descendant of David. Absolutely not, but the man Christ Jesus was!! So let's look at Isaiah 9:6-7. The opening verse of the chapter foretells a time when “there will be no more gloom for those in distress.” All war and death will cease, and “every warrior’s boot…will be destined for burning” (v. 5). Verse 5 comes about by the Messiah reigning on earth in verse 6 (yet future, because his kingdom on earth is not yet established). NOTE that many prophecies are written as having already taken place, yet they take place in the future. It's referred to as the Hebrew Idiom "prophetic perfect." YHWH sees all past, present, and future laid out before Him. For example: Jesus was crucified before the foundations of the world (Revelation 13:8), in YHWH's foreknowledge it was a done deal, though it would be thousands of years after the foundations of the world that Jesus would be crucified. Jesus the Nazarene, was a MAN delivered over by the PREDETERMINED PLAN AND FOREKNOWLEDGE OF GOD. He was put to death by godless men (Acts 2:22-23). He was FOREKNOWN BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, BUT WAS REVEALED IN THESE LAST TIMES for your sake, who THROUGH him are believers in God, the one who raised him out from among the dead and gave him glory so that your trust and hope are in God. *1 Peter 1:20* The point is, in YHWH's foreknowledge, it's past tense and a done deal. That is why Isaiah 9:6 is written in the past tense and considered a Hebrew "prophet perfect Idiom." The prophetic perfect idiom, or tense, is a literary technique used in some OT prophetic writings that describe future events that are so certain to happen that they are referred to in the past tense as if they had already happened. Isaiah 9:6 is one example. Those who claim Isaiah 9:6 doesn't refer to the Messiah but rather to King Hezekiah are simply wrong for very good reasons. In chapters 38 and 39, Hezekiah died as a grown man, while the Israelites were still in captivity so he could hardly be the one referred to in Isaiah 9:6. Furthermore, he only turned to prayer on his deathbed. "Churchianity" is also wrong on this verse because it does not say Jesus is God or "Almighty God." Translations that read that way are in conflict with the Bible. The KJV translators got it WRONG, and since most English translations follow the KJV, they also get it wrong. 1. *"Mighty God"* is a mistranslation in Isaiah 9:6. Reasons: i). In the Bible, a man who is acting with God’s authority can be called “god" using the lowercase "g" in reference to lords, kings, judges, prophets, and even the children of Israel. For example: "I (GOD) said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' Psalms 82:6 Jesus quoted this verse in John 10:34-36 to defend himself against the FALSE allegation by the Jews that he was declaring himself to be equal to God (YHWH). Jesus of course disagreed with their false accusation and declared himself to be the Son of God and NOT God the Son. ii). The original Greek has no upper and lowercase letters so "theos" can be translated as God when accompanied by the definite article "ho" (the), meaning YHWH (the one true God), or as god, meaning lord, master, judge, king, ruler, or one with authority. Most readers of the Bible do not know these things about the word God and god, or that it is up to the translators to determine whether the context indicates the use of uppercase (God) or lowercase "god" for anointed humans, false gods, or the god of this world who is the Devil. It makes much more sense to remove the pagan word God or god from the Bible and use YHWH's name as he commanded in the OT. iii). A clear example of the Trinitarian bias of most translators can be clearly seen by comparing Isaiah 9:6 (el = “God”) with Ezekiel 31:11 (el = “ruler”). *If calling the Messiah "el" made him God, then the Babylonian king would be God also.* iv). Isaiah 9:6 is calling the coming Messiah a *mighty ruler or mighty hero,* not Mighty God. v). Translators can use "mighty god" (lowercase "god") to identify the coming Messiah as an appointed authority, king, or ruler. However, it is an error to use the uppercase "God" because that is reserved for YHWH alone. vi). A better translation for the English reader would be “mighty hero,” or “divine hero.” Martin Luther and James Moffatt translated the phrase "Mighty God" as “divine hero” in their Bibles. vii). Another translator's error is where “God” is used for powerful earthly rulers in Ezekiel 31:11 when referring to the Babylonian king. How can a earthly king be God? It should be rendered god, king, lord, ruler, but not God. viii). The phrase translated “Mighty God” in Isaiah 9:6 in the NIV is the Hebrew "el gibbor." That very phrase, in the plural form, is used in Ezekiel 32:21 where dead “heroes” and "mighty men" are spoken of. In Ezekiel the same phrase is translated “mighty leaders” in the NIV, and “the strong among the mighty” in the KJV and NASB. When used in the singular, it can refer to a “mighty leader." ix). Jesus sits on the throne of David in verse 7. YHWH does not sit on David's Throne. YHWH is the one that created David's throne and gave it to Jesus. *Conclusion:* For all the above reasons Mighty God is a mistranslation. The context of Isaiah 9:6 concerns the Messiah as God’s appointed ruler. The opening verse of the chapter foretells a time when “there will be no more gloom for those in distress.” All war and death will cease, and “every warrior’s boot…will be destined for burning” (v. 5). How will this come to pass? The chapter goes on: “for to us a child is born and to us a son is given” (v. 6). There is no hint that this child will be “God.” There is no hint of any “incarnation” here either. The Messiah was to be a man anointed by God. Deuteronomy 18:15-18. He would start as a child, which of course Yahweh, their eternal God, could never be. The Messiah would grow to be a great ruler: “the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty Hero, Father of the Coming Age, Prince of Peace.” The Messiah "will reign on David’s throne (v. 7), which is something that is never said of God. God could never sit on David’s throne. But God’s Messiah, “the Son of David,” could (Matt. 9:27, et al). Thus, a study of the verse in its context reveals that it does not refer to Jesus as God. It refers to the human Messiah, the son of David and the Son of God.
One more comment on Isaiah 9 2. *Everlasting Father* is a mistranslation. Jesus is never called the “Everlasting Father” anywhere else in Scripture. We do not build our understanding of who the Messiah is based on one scripture reference. The word translated “everlasting” is more accurately translated as “age,” or "ages." Isaiah 9:6 is conveying the message that Jesus will be called *"the father of the coming ages."* What ages? THE CHURCH AGE, the AGE OF SALVATION, Age of Grace, and the Age of the Millennial Kingdom of Messiah on earth. "Father" in Isaiah is not a reference to YHWH. In OT times, anyone who was the first to do or begin anything new was called its “father.” For example: *a) Jabal was the first one to live in a tent and raise livestock, the Bible says, “he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock” (Genesis 4:20).* *b) Jubal was the first inventor of musical instruments, he is called, “the father of all who play the harp and flute” (Gen. 4:21).* In Isaiah 9:6, “father” is being used in this sense of the word because the Messiah will be the one to establish the ages to come, end the death penalty for sin for those who believe, raise the dead saints, and rule over all creation, therefore he is called the *“father of the coming ages.”*
“Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save. Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Surely shall one say, In the Lord have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed. In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.” Isaiah 45:20-25 KJVAE “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” Romans 14:11 KJVAE “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:5-11 KJVAE “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” 1 Timothy 3:16 KJVAE God was manifest in the flesh, God was justified in the Spirit, God was seen of angels, God was preached unto the gentiles, God was believed on in the world, God was received up into glory. GOD DID ALL OF THIS IN THE MAN CHRIST JESUS, THE SON OF GOD. GOD MANIFESTED HIMSELF IN THE FLESH (SON OF GOD). Jesus was the tabernacle or temple of God. All the fulness of God dwelt in him. That’s why he sometimes is referred to as the God man. He wasn’t just ANY man. He would house the presence of the eternal Spirit (the Father). Hebrews 9 says that Christ offered himself without spot through the eternal Spirit. Jesus is God and He is the lamb that sits on the ONE throne set in heaven. Unitarians are correct to say that Jesus was a man. But they fail to recognize that ALL of the fulness of God dwelt in that man. He wasn’t just any man. Jesus said I and my Father are one and that all men should honor the son even as they honor the Father. Hebrews reiterates “Let all the angels of God worship Him”. A mere man must not be worshipped. Jesus said before Abraham was ‘I AM’. There is only one who can lay claim to that title; YHWH Himself told Moses I AM hath sent you. And a mere man cannot say he existed before Abraham was unless He were present before Abraham existed. He was the eternal God who was in Christ Jesus. Jesus said ‘Destroy this temple and in 3 days I will raise it up’. How could he being a man raise it up? Jesus was the temple. He was also God who dwelt in the temple. “Thou hast prepared for Him a body”. God dwelt in the man Christ Jesus who was the temple of God. God was in Christ reconciling the world unto HIMSELF. Yes He was a special man. Jesus said if you believe not that I AM, you shall die in your sins. He was a man but he wasn’t just ANY man. He was Emmanuel, GOD WITH US. The Father provided eternal redemption through the son. The fulness of God dwelt and dwells in the son. I am not Trinitarian. I am a oneness believer. I am just repeating what the word says about Jesus. Jesus is the one God manifest in the flesh. He is God and the lamb that is sitting on ONE throne set in heaven. He must reign as a son, the son of God, until all enemies are made his footstool. And then when that happens, God will be all in all. There will no longer be a need for sonship.
In addition to Jesus’ specific claims about Himself, His disciples also acknowledged the deity of Christ. They claimed that Jesus had the right to forgive sins-something only God can do-as it is God who is offended by sin (Acts 5:31; Colossians 3:13; Psalm 130:4; Jeremiah 31:34). In close connection with this last claim, Jesus is also said to be the one who will “judge the living and the dead” (2 Timothy 4:1). Thomas cried out to Jesus, “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28). Paul calls Jesus “great God and Savior” (Titus 2:13) and points out that prior to His incarnation Jesus existed in the “form of God” (Philippians 2:5-8). God the Father says regarding Jesus: “Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever” (Hebrews 1:8). John states that “in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word [Jesus] was God” (John 1:1). Examples of Scriptures that teach the deity of Christ are many (see Revelation 1:17, 2:8, 22:13; 1 Corinthians 10:4; 1 Peter 2:6-8; Psalm 18:2, 95:1; 1 Peter 5:4; Hebrews 13:20), but even one of these is enough to show that Christ was considered to be God by His followers. Jesus is also given titles that are unique to YHWH (the formal name of God) in the Old Testament. The Old Testament title “redeemer” (Psalm 130:7; Hosea 13:14) is used of Jesus in the New Testament (Titus 2:13; Revelation 5:9). Jesus is called Immanuel-“God with us”-in Matthew 1. In Zechariah 12:10, it is YHWH who says, “They will look on me, the one they have pierced.” But the New Testament applies this to Jesus’ crucifixion (John 19:37; Revelation 1:7). If it is YHWH who is pierced and looked upon, and Jesus was the one pierced and looked upon, then Jesus is YHWH. Paul interprets Isaiah 45:22-23 as applying to Jesus in Philippians 2:10-11. Further, Jesus’ name is used alongside God’s in prayer “Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ” (Galatians 1:3; Ephesians 1:2). This would be blasphemy if Christ were not deity. The name of Jesus appears with God’s in Jesus’ commanded to baptize “in the name [singular] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19; see also 2 Corinthians 13:14). Actions that can be accomplished only by God are credited to Jesus. Jesus not only raised the dead (John 5:21, 11:38-44) and forgave sins (Acts 5:31, 13:38), He created and sustains the universe (John 1:2; Colossians 1:16-17). This becomes even clearer when one considers YHWH said He was alone during creation (Isaiah 44:24). Further, Christ possesses attributes that only deity can have: eternality (John 8:58), omnipresence (Matthew 18:20, 28:20), omniscience (Matthew 16:21), and omnipotence (John 11:38-44). Now, it is one thing to claim to be God or to fool someone into believing it is true, and something else entirely to prove it to be so. Christ offered many miracles as proof of His claim to deity. Just a few of Jesus’ miracles include turning water to wine (John 2:7), walking on water (Matthew 14:25), multiplying physical objects (John 6:11), healing the blind (John 9:7), the lame (Mark 2:3), and the sick (Matthew 9:35; Mark 1:40-42), and even raising people from the dead (John 11:43-44; Luke 7:11-15; Mark 5:35). Moreover, Christ Himself rose from the dead. Far from the so-called dying and rising gods of pagan mythology, nothing like the resurrection is seriously claimed by other religions, and no other claim has as much extra-scriptural confirmation. There are at least twelve historical facts about Jesus that even non-Christian critical scholars will admit: 1. Jesus died by crucifixion. 2. He was buried. 3. His death caused the disciples to despair and lose hope. 4. Jesus’ tomb was discovered (or was claimed to be discovered) to be empty a few days later. 5. The disciples believed they experienced appearances of the risen Jesus. 6. After this, the disciples were transformed from doubters into bold believers. 7. This message was the center of preaching in the early Church. 8. This message was preached in Jerusalem. 9. As a result of this preaching, the Church was born and it grew. 10. Resurrection day, Sunday, replaced the Sabbath (Saturday) as the primary day of worship. 11. James, a skeptic, was converted when he also saw the resurrected Jesus. 12. Paul, an enemy of Christianity, was converted by an experience which he believed to be an appearance of the risen Jesus. Even if someone were to object to this specific list, only a few are needed to prove the resurrection and establish the gospel: Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection, and appearances (1 Corinthians 15:1-5). While there may be some theories to explain one or two of the above facts, only the resurrection explains and accounts for them all. Critics admit that the disciples claimed they saw the risen Jesus. Neither lies nor hallucinations can transform people the way the resurrection did. First, what would they have had to gain? Christianity was not popular and it certainly did not make them any money. Second, liars do not make good martyrs. There is no better explanation than the resurrection for the disciples’ willingness to die horrible deaths for their faith. Yes, many people die for lies that they think are true, but people do not die for what they know is untrue. In conclusion, Christ claimed He was YHWH, that He was deity (not just “a god” but the one true God); His followers (Jews who would have been terrified of idolatry) believed Him and referred to Him as God. Christ proved His claims to deity through miracles, including the world-altering resurrection. No other hypothesis can explain these facts. Yes, the deity of Christ is biblical.
Hi! Do unitarians believe in the rapture? Most christians nowadays believe in this, but the doctrine just seems off to me? How can we all just fly in the sky when Christ comes? That makes no sense. Also, how do you deal with people calling you a heretic? When you try and tell people this info they are quick to say you are committing heresy. Oh! One more question 😂. If the trinity comes from pagan orgins, what about Christmas, Easter, weddings, and other stuff like that? Thanks in advance!
@@jordyn_shorts I can't answer for other Unitarian groups, but as a Christadelphian, we don't believe in the rapture. But, instead that Jesus returns to raise the dead, immortalise the faithful who are alive at the time, and then he establishes the kingdom of God on earth, where the saints reign with him. How do I deal with being called a heretic. I don't get too bothered about it, because it's just standard stuff. On UA-cam it is anyway. Christmas and Easter are generally acknowledged among Christadelphians as having pagan origin, and because of that some don't celebrate them, but others don't get hung up about it. Again I can't answer for other groups. Personally, even without the pagan origin, I think Christmas is a waste of money, and over hyped. And the fact it gets people into debt, makes it an event to be discouraged if we want the best for each other. At least the gifting side of it anyway. But as a body we don't have a definite position on it. Weddings I've not considered as pagan, but I guess certain aspects might be.
God gave Jesus the authority over flesh - He inherits the right to forgive sin. However, each time he healed, he said to the prostitute and the many by the pool go and sin no more - that's a command
Troy------Jesus is NOT the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT. Only GOD the FATHER qualifies as such! Jesus Declared, he has the very same GOD and FATHER as you and I. AND; He also Declared that his GOD and FATHER is the, "One TRUE GOD. " I don't know HOW people MISS these Obvious Truths!
@@edensessentialsnaturalwell8564 "Jesus never said, "don't Worship me?" THAT'S your Theologic Method? Asking someone a Hypothetical, REVERSE question, is NOT What a Scholar would call an effective Scriptural approach, My friend. For Example-----I could toss the very same dead--end logic at You.

@@raygsbrelcik5578 it’s not a theological method. And who was talking to you? I think you need to lay off the weed. Jesus is the second PERSON in the Godhead. He is fully God. Like it or lump it.
Respectfully, I'm looking at death as ceasing consciousness. And you seem to be looking at death as "being alive in your soul" which is extremely Platonistic. I would encourage you to look into that more, I've spent many hours looking into the issue myself. Either way, it doesn't matter how you define death. God is immortal (1 Tim. 6:16) which means that one cannot die. And Jesus died. So, even if you have a different definition of death, whatever death is, God can't do it, and the Bible says that Jesus did it.
@@biblicalunitarian 1. Jesus never cease to be conscious. 2. God can decide to do whatever he wishes. Who are we to determine what God can and cannot do? It’s just like saying “because God doesn’t eat and Jesus ate when he was on earth, hence he’s not God” Physical death doesn’t affect the deity of Jesus in anyway. Moreover, he didn’t come from heaven with the physical body. He had existed before taking the human form.
@@biblicalunitarian Agreed jesus died. There is no such thing as a spirit. Nobody has a spirit and this is not supported in scripture. Once jesus died, God raised him up. God's cannot die, eat, drink, or even be looked at. Yet, jesus was none of that, therefore he is not god. if you worship jesus at all, it is considered blasphemy. come my brother, join me in praising Allah!
Death does not mean ceasing to exist. Death on earth simply means physically leaving this realm. God can not cease to exist so God can not die in the way I think you’re talking about. However, if God was to enter the world by taking on flesh God could leave this plane of existence by ‘dying’. I hope this misunderstanding doesn’t keep you away from digging deeper :)
Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time The secred text of the Bible says ye shall know them by their fruits So too that I say to my christian brothers and sisters be fruitful and multiply Best regards from a Muslim ( line of ismail )
Simple explanation and well said. Thank you for taking the time to make this! This is the passage that truly convinced me. "Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil- and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.

@MrsTaylor Some verses says that Jesus is God, let us see: Isaiah 9:6 (KJV) For unto us a child (Jesus) is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Romans 9:5 (KJV) Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. John 1:1, 14 (KJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV) 6 And again, when he (God the Father) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him (God the Son = Jesus). 7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. so, only these some verses declare that Jesus is God, still many other verses proof it.
@@Husein_Tan let me stop right there. Just scrolling very briefly through your list of verses you have chosen to use some very questionable translations. For instance: John 1:1. Based on knowledge of “logos” or “Word” in English, this translation has been pulled from either the KJV or the NIV and in both of these translations that capitalize “Word” has if it is referring to a proper noun. The “word” is used nearly 300 times in the Greek New Testament and only 7 times did they decide to capitalize it in the KJV and NIV. If you go back and research the logos, it disappears from translations nearly half of the time. To make this absolutely clear, the word “logos” in the Greek has many meanings including account, appearance, book, command, conversation, eloquence, flattery, grievance, heard, instruction, matter, message, ministry, news, proposal, question, reason, reasonable, reply, report, rule, rumor, said, say, saying, sentence, speaker, speaking, speech, stories, story, talk, talking, teaching, testimony, thing, things, this, truths, what, why, word and words. So capitalizing “word” and applying a meaning that is not found anywhere else in scripture is NOT a reasonable argument for the trinity. You are holding to incorrect teachings for what???
@@MissusTayIor see verse 6 & 8 Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV) 6 And again, when he (God the Father) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him (God the Son = Jesus). 7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
@@Husein_Tan let’s not skip over some important verses there. “Hebrew 1:3 “Who is the reflection of his glory, and the exact representation of his nature, and is upholding all things by his powerful word. After he had accomplished the cleansing for sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Notice some important information here. Reflection and representation but never suggesting that he is exactly him but exactly who he calls himself to be. The only begotten son. A lot like his father by not equal. Now for your verses: “And when he again brings the firstborn into the inhabited world, he says, And let all the angels of God bow down before him. And of the angels it says, who makes his angels as winds, and his ministers as a flaming fire, of the Son it says, Your throne is God forever and ever, and the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness rather than your companions. Trinitarians say that Hebrews 1:8 supports that trinity but this is a direct reference to Psalm 45 and God’s promise there. Jews never read Psalm 45 to mean “God in the flesh.” There has been much debate about Psalm 45 but even Trinitarians scholars are unsure of its exact translation for how the word “god” is being used. Another thing to note, is the phrase “God, your God.” How are they coequal and coeternal if Jesus has a God? He prays to his God, obeys his God, calls him his God.
@@Husein_Tan your Is9:6 "mighty god" in Hebrew is "el gibbor" which is also in other places in scripture used to say "mighty one" and also refer to king of Babylon. The term "el" which is rendered God in your verse was a common term for "God" in other cultures in the mid east in ancient times.
If any one grew up being taught the Bible then the best thing to do is get completely away from all of them you grew up around for several years and clear your mind by renewing it, forget all that you was ever taught and open your Bible to the beginning and tell Yehovah God to send His Spirit of Holiness to teach you the truth and read through the Bible without studying just read word for word until you complete your Bible and then start over in the beginning and read through again and continue, this way you will know that truth and you will be free from man’s imagination and adding to sweeten it up with lies and then you will be able to catch all error from others and you will be able to correct reprove and rebuke according to the Word of Yehovah God and the teachings of Yeshua ha Messiach, The Spirit of Holiness will lead you into all truth, guide you in the way of Messiach, teach without error, comfort with assurance of your salvation, and warn you of things to come

Yes, it is true that God cannot die but Jesus as the Messiah, the son of David according to the flesh (as Paul often reiterates) could die as a fleshly being - but it would not make sense for Paul to repeatedly distinguish that Jesus was the son of David "according to the flesh" if that is all that Jesus was - Jesus was the son of God according to the spirit - as Jesus taught Nicodemus, that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit - Jesus was the only begotten son of God and in Jesus the fleshly human that could die dwelt the fullness of Deity in bodily form (Col 2:9) - or do you believe that God as his father contributed nothing to the birth of his son - so although God, the father, could not die, He, YHVH, says in Zechariah 12:10: they will look on me whom they have pierced (clearly a prophecy about the crucifixion and the 'me' refers to the speaker, YHVH) - and again in Rev 1:7 John quotes Zechariah 12:10 saying he (Jesus) is coming with the clouds and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him. So, God may not be able to die but he so closely associates himself with his son, the Messiah, that from His perspective, the Messiah being pierced is He Himself being pierced. God gives us the perfect metaphor in Isaiah of how the Messiah relates to the Father saying that the Messiah is the Branch of the LORD which would make the LORD the Tree - if a branch is cut off as Jesus was, does the Tree die, No. But the LORD can and did raise the Branch to life again.
So, it seems you are splitting apart his natures, going against the Council of Chalcedon. Also, never once do the scriptures say that "part" of Jesus died, or just his "flesh" died, or that his divine nature did not die. Is that concerning to you, if that is really what happened to Jesus? The scriptures do not seem concerned at all to just say Jesus died. But modern Trinitarians feel the need to qualify that well, only part of Jesus died. Zech. 12:10 has textual variants that say "look on him" not "look on me" and Rev. 1:7 is not quoting Zech. 12:10, although there are some parallels. Nope, we totally believe God contributed to the birth of his son, the virgin birth. But being created by God doesn't make you intrinsically divine. Angels were created directly by God, Adam was too, but neither of them are divine. So, being a "Son of God" does not make you God, in fact, it makes you clearly not God. The son of Bill is not Bill.
Very good explanation on the "death" issue. There are also many others as well, even Jesus's own statements that prove his humanity. If I could ask, could you or anyone reading this recommend me a Biblical Unitarian Church in the Dallas,Tx area where me and my family could congregate? I would definitely apreciate it. God bless.
Unitarians believe Jesus is not God. Oneness believe Jesus IS God and there is no trinity nor binity. The Bible undeniably teaches that God is ONE and that Jesus Christ is God Almighty.
the Bible undeniably teaches that God is ONE and that Jehovah God the Father is God Almighty and that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, a man born of a virgin, a different person.
"what convinced me" What convinced me the trinity was false doctrine was the questions that could not be answered by the carholic priest i was asking.

Jesus is both God and Man. He is 100% God and 100% Man. Fully God and Fully Man. As a man, he has a God. It is the Father. He is fully subjected to his Father's will. In his Divine Nature, Father has higher authority than him; he is also in line with Father's will being united in works and purpose...

Yes indeed, Jesus is not god nor a son of god , actually God doesn't need a son to save people as most of christians use to say . Jesus is just another god's messenger
The New Testament repeatedly affirms that Jesus is the Son of God in a unique and divine sense, not merely a prophet or messenger. For instance, in Matthew 16:16, Peter declares, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God," and Jesus affirms this as a revelation from God the Father. Similarly, John 1:1-14 identifies Jesus as the eternal Word who "was God" and became flesh. Orthodox Christianity teaches that Jesus is eternally begotten of the Father, not created, making Him of the same essence (homoousios) as the Father, as affirmed in the Nicene Creed, 325 AD. Jesus did fulfill a prophetic role in His earthly ministry, He is far more than a messenger. Orthodox teaching asserts that Jesus is God incarnate, who took on human nature to save humanity. This is evident in passages like John 10:30, where Jesus states, "I and the Father are one," and Colossians 2:9, which declares, "In Him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily." Unlike mere prophets, Jesus forgave sins (Mark 2:5-7), accepted worship (Matthew 14:33), and exercised divine authority over nature, life, and death (Mark 4:39; John 11:43-44). These are acts only God can do. God’s plan of salvation necessitated the Incarnation, not because God needed a son in the sense of dependence but because His love willed it. Hebrews 2:14-17 explains that Jesus became human to destroy the power of death and reconcile humanity with God. This profound act of love is echoed in 1 Timothy 2:5, which describes Jesus as the "one mediator between God and men," uniquely qualified because He is both fully God and fully man. The early Church Fathers, closest to the Apostolic era, consistently affirmed Jesus’ divinity. St. Athanasius, for example, wrote, "God became man so that man might become god," referring to humanity’s deification (theosis) through union with Christ. The Church’s ecumenical councils, such as Nicaea (325 AD) and Chalcedon (451 AD), rejected any notion that Jesus was merely a man or messenger, affirming His full divinity and humanity. Scripture shows that Jesus was worshiped as God, something no prophet or messenger would accept. After His resurrection, the disciples worshiped Him (Matthew 28:9), and in Revelation 5:12-13, He is worshiped in heaven alongside God the Father. The title "Son of God" does not imply biological offspring or inferiority but signifies His eternal relationship with the Father, being of the same divine essence. John 5:18 makes it clear that calling God His Father made Him "equal with God."
@@chelseaoguike7570 The term 'Father' in the Greek is also defined as 'Source'. When you understand that, it's easier to understand the relationship between Father and Son.

Jesus' prayer asking for the possibility of avoiding the crucifixion comes from the passages in the Gospels where he prays in the Garden of Gethsemane. The main references are: - **Matthew 26:39**: "And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, 'My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.'" - **Mark 14:36**: "And he said, 'Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.'" - **Luke 22:42**: "Saying, 'Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.'" These verses depict Jesus in a moment of human distress, seeking comfort while submitting to God's will.@@edensessentialsnaturalwell8564
It's hard to ignore all the verses in the bible that talk about God being Yeshua's (Jesus') Father. Here are just a few... John 20:17 "Yeshua said to her, 'Stop holding on to me, because I haven't yet gone back to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am going back to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'" This verse shows Yeshua referring to YHWH as "my God," indicating His relationship with God the Father. Matthew 27:46 "About three, Yeshua uttered a loud cry, 'Eli! Eli! L'mah sh'vaktani?' (My God! My God! Why have you deserted me?)" In this verse, Yeshua refers to YHWH as "My God" while on the cross. Mark 15:34 "At three o’clock, Yeshua uttered a loud cry, 'Elohi! Elohi! L'mah sh'vaktani?' (My God! My God! Why have you deserted me?)" This is a parallel account of Yeshua's cry on the cross, where He refers to YHWH as "My God." 2 Corinthians 1:3 "Praised be God, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, compassionate Father, God of all encouragement and comfort." Paul, in his letter, refers to God as the Father of Yeshua, which implies that Yeshua has a God. Ephesians 1:17 "That the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you will have full knowledge of him." Here, Paul refers to "the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah." Revelation 3:12 "I will make him who wins the victory a pillar in the Temple of my God, and he will never leave it. Also I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Yerushalayim coming down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name." In this verse, Yeshua repeatedly refers to YHWH as "my God." These verses collectively show that Yeshua refers to YHWH as His God, emphasizing His submission and relationship with the Father. Romans 15:6 "...so that with one accord and with one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah." Paul refers to YHWH as the "God and Father" of Yeshua, indicating Yeshua’s relationship with God. 2 Corinthians 11:31 "The God and Father of the Lord Yeshua - blessed be He forever - knows that I am not lying!" Again, Paul speaks of YHWH as the "God and Father" of Yeshua. Ephesians 1:3 "Praised be YHWH, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who in the Messiah has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heaven." YHWH is referred to as the "Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah." Colossians 1:3 "We always give thanks to YHWH, the Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, whenever we pray for you." YHWH is called "the Father of our Lord Yeshua." 1 Peter 1:3 "Praised be YHWH, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who, in keeping with his great mercy, has caused us, through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah from the dead, to be born again to a living hope." Peter acknowledges YHWH as the "Father of our Lord Yeshua." These references further demonstrate that Yeshua has a God, and they highlight Yeshua's relationship to YHWH as His Father. Hebrews 1:9 "You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore, O God, your God has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions." This verse is quoting Psalm 45:7 and speaks of Yeshua being anointed by "your God," which indicates that Yeshua has a God. 2 Corinthians 1:3 "Praised be YHWH, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, compassionate Father, YHWH of all encouragement and comfort." This reiterates that YHWH is both the God and Father of Yeshua. Revelation 1:6 "And made us a kingdom, cohanim for YHWH, his Father - to Him be the glory and the rulership forever and ever. Amen." This verse shows that Yeshua refers to YHWH as "his Father" and indicates that YHWH is God to Him. Revelation 3:2 "Wake up, and strengthen what remains but is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God." Yeshua is speaking to the assembly in Sardis, and He refers to YHWH as "my God." Revelation 3:12 (as previously mentioned) is significant because Yeshua refers to YHWH as "my God" four times in this single verse. These verses consistently show the distinction between Yeshua and YHWH and affirm that Yeshua acknowledges YHWH as His God, highlighting Yeshua's relationship of submission and reverence to the Father. John 17:3 "And eternal life is this: to know you, the one true God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua the Messiah." In this prayer, Yeshua distinguishes between Himself and YHWH, referring to YHWH as "the one true God." John 14:28 "You heard me tell you, ‘I am leaving, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have been glad that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I." In this verse, Yeshua emphasizes that the Father is greater than Himself, implying His submission to YHWH. 1 Corinthians 15:28 "Now when everything has been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to YHWH who subjected everything to him, so that YHWH may be everything in everyone." This verse speaks about the time when Yeshua will subject Himself to YHWH, highlighting His relationship with YHWH as His God. These verses consistently illustrate the relationship between Yeshua and YHWH, emphasizing Yeshua's acknowledgment of YHWH as His God and His position of submission to the Father. Hebrews 5:7 "During Yeshua's life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions, crying aloud and shedding tears, to the one who had the power to deliver him from death, and he was heard because of his godliness." This verse speaks of Yeshua offering prayers to YHWH, emphasizing that He looked to YHWH as His God for deliverance. 1 Peter 1:21 "Through him you trust in YHWH, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory; so that your trust and hope are in YHWH." Peter refers to YHWH raising Yeshua from the dead, highlighting the distinction between Yeshua and YHWH and affirming YHWH's role as the one to whom Yeshua looked for resurrection. These verses continue to reinforce the relationship between Yeshua and YHWH, illustrating that Yeshua acknowledged and depended on YHWH as His God throughout His earthly ministry and beyond.
Everybody hates the book of John? Jesus is part of the Godhead, Heavenly Father, Holy Spirit and the Son, Jesus . Jesus is himself is God in nature omnipotence, Creator that nature of God but He submits to the Father The King , thats is why he is called the Prince of Peace because the King is Father. Jesus had to come down to be a human being and that is by the power of the Holy Spirit to fulfill the law because Jews can’t do it and that is why Jesus was worthy to be the ultimate sacrifice for the sins of mankind

Death is a state which is impossible to be assigned to God, as non-physical beings cannot possibly experience physical death. A more accurate statement than “God cannot die” is God cannot cease to exist. In becoming man, God the Son took on a physical human form/nature, and thus can experience physical death human death. But when Jesus died, He never ceased to exist. He has always existed, will always exist, and never once stopped existing, even in physical death. When a human being dies, they do not cease to exist. So when Jesus experienced physical death, His human and divine natures were never separated since neither natures ceased to exist
The whole story is nonsensical because it’s wrong and has been tainted by human fallibility. According to prevailing Christian belief, God had to make himself human to sacrifice himself to himself to save people from the punishment that God “had” to issue to fulfill the law that he created despite knowing he made fallible beings. The Trinity not only is illogical on the face of it( “3 things are 1 but also 3” is absurd reasoning) but it also makes the entire story of Christ nonsensical and meaningless. What true sacrifice is it of an all-powerful God to sacrifice himself to himself? That’s not what sacrifice means. The truth is actually very simple. God, like He has many times before as recorded in the Bible, sent us a Messenger named Jesus. The Messenger was threatened and refused to stop preaching God’s message, and was willing to sacrifice his life to spread God’s word. He died on the cross and His spirit is with God now, but Jesus clearly accomplished His mission as His message spread to every corner of the over and is still around thousands of years later. Messengers of God are a station above mere human beings but they are not God.
@@MissRegionRat The Trinity is not a contradiction but a divine mystery: one God in three distinct persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As the Nicene Creed, via the First Ecumenical Council (325 AD), affirms: “We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds…” (Nicene Creed). This encapsulates the belief that Jesus Christ is not just a prophet but the eternal Son of God, fully divine and fully human, who became incarnate to restore humanity to God. The idea that God “sacrificed Himself to Himself” is a misinterpretation; Jesus' death is an act of divine love, not a legal transaction. As Apostle Paul writes in Romans 5:8: “But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross was necessary for the redemption of humanity, where he defeated sin and death and offered eternal life. Secondly, Jesus did not merely deliver a message! He was the message, embodying God's love and salvation. In John 14:9, Jesus says, “Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.” The Orthodox Church teaches that through His death and resurrection, Jesus fulfilled God's plan for salvation, bringing humanity back into communion with Him. This was affirmed at the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD), which clarified that Jesus is one person with two natures: “truly God and truly man”. The Gospel is not a story of meaningless suffering but the ultimate act of self-sacrificial love that transforms the world. Jesus' sacrifice was necessary for salvation, as stated in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” The truth of the Gospel is revealed in Christ's actions, not as a contradiction, but as the fulfillment of God's divine plan for the salvation of the world. Cheers.
...imagine God dying. ...God being tempted. ...God not being able to do anything of himself. A God created fully human. All of that according to Scripture. Clearly he is not God then.
Well, let John 1:1, the Holy Scripture speak louder then your premise that He, as the Word, was God. If you fail to believe that He is God, your faith in Jesus Christ is in vain and that you have desecrated the very scriptures you based your faith on amid your false and misleading unitarian premise and theology!

@@eddixxon WRONG WRONG WRONG. You apparently do NOT understand your own doctrine. What is the logos? As a die hard trinitarian you should know it. John 1:1. Based on knowledge of “logos” or “Word” in English, this translation has been pulled from either the KJV or the NIV and in both of these translations that capitalize “Word” has if it is referring to a proper noun. The “word” is used nearly 300 times in the Greek New Testament and only 7 times did they decide to capitalize it in the KJV and NIV. If you go back and research the logos, it disappears from translations nearly half of the time. To make this absolutely clear, the word “logos” in the Greek has many meanings including account, appearance, book, command, conversation, eloquence, flattery, grievance, heard, instruction, matter, message, ministry, news, proposal, question, reason, reasonable, reply, report, rule, rumor, said, say, saying, sentence, speaker, speaking, speech, stories, story, talk, talking, teaching, testimony, thing, things, this, truths, what, why, word and words. So capitalizing “word” and applying a meaning that is not found anywhere else in scripture is NOT a reasonable argument for the trinity. Tell me WHERE IN THE SCRIPTURE DOES IT SAY THAT I NEED THE TRINITY FOR SALVATION??
@@eddixxon What beginning did Gods word of promise get fleshed out? The same beginning as the other three gospel writers, which was about the beginning of this new thing, the church.
Yep totally agree. But scripture also says, "Let us reason together" and compliments the Bereans for "searching the scriptures to see if these things were true", so let's not try to suppress using our minds to understand God. I can find my exact definition of God in the Bible "For us, there is one God, the Father" (1 Cor. 8:6), can you find your exact definition of God in the Bible? So, Unitarians are simply believing the scriptures, they aren't trying to "out reason" God.
@biblicalunitarian Searching is not wrong but defying truth is. I have discovered God through many paths. One being science. Like many scientists today I've concluded it is absurd to not believe in a creator knowing the absolute undeniable genius it took to make this planet. We are being hurled around the sun in a precise orbit traveling at 66,000 mph. Be it macro or micro examination of our existence the only logical conclusion is that an omnipotent being was the mastermind and not the result of radom coincidence. The question is not is there God but who is He? Reasoning that God doesn't exist is ludicrousness rooted primarily in bigotry. The vast majority of people never give it much thought, if any, their entire lives. Those that seek will find. I know, because I did. Just my thoughts.

@@Husein_Tan so you think that by capitalizing BREAD OF LIFE, a metaphor, and adding an equals sign then you can make it actually be the God most high? Thats about as strong as Von Danikens book claiming that as UFOs are seen flying about in the clouds and Jesus rose into the clouds then "therefore= jesus is an alien" (chariots of the gods, in case he never published in your homeland ) By the way my wife and i are one. In raising our children. You and I are one in calling on Jesus anointed, for salvation from the second death. blessings brother.
@@Husein_Tan by the way do some study on jn8:58 and look up those two words in the greek. ego eimi means I connected to context as in I did eat all the icecream or I AM the one who you claim gulped down the icecream. context in my case icecream. In jn8:58 context is messiah promised to Abraham. If you look at it in LXX in Exodus the angel in the bush said "ego eimi ho on" meaning I AM THE GOD. And context is "the God." not the expression of conjunction which in the very many other places is translated "I am (he)." like in your first verse above "I am the bread of life" where the context is bread of life. Please do some due diligence, christianity is the right way to go, true life, but you have been taught some bad old catholic religious dogma mixed with it. Jesus is Gods son through Mary, the second Adam,, the anointed man, the lamb of God who shed blood on passover so you and i can come under that covering blood, provided by our father God at great cost, not God dying himself !! His Passover lamb died, that He provided for us.
@@Husein_Tan Jn1:1. which beginning is John talking about with his clever double entendre, might it be the same beginning he draws attention to, that Matt, Mark. Luke and Acts mention? The beginning of the church? because thats what those other four books are about, and John might just be drawing attention to the beginning of Gods word, recorded in scripture, where there in Gods word we see the promise of a human messiah in Gen3 and Deut18. A promise that was "fleshed out" in the course of time. (see the ancients knew about metaphors too!) I mean i think I pointed that out to you IN THE BEGINNING. why did i say i said that at the beginning of creation? It was my Word in these comments. Not the creation of the universe. Brother i was a trinitarian for almost 40 years, working in christian radio, fault finding in logic assemblies, helping creation ministries international, missions, until 6 years ago when i turned my attention solely on scripture and the worldview of those it was written too at the time, and checking tbe language it was written in. Then became apparent the religious tradition that translational bias (Alexandrian greek) had done to it, needing reformation and myriad bible versions and religious power play. I pray you will read your scripture outside of the preacher who insists you read John first, and see the trinity. Its a lie. The real picture is there in the text if you read it without the blinkers fitted by meddling priests.
Which premise do you disagree with? Do you believe that God can die, or that Jesus did not die? Because you have to deny one of these premises to deny the conclusion.
@@biblicalunitarianthe part that is week is your definition of death. It is not the erasure of a soul or spirit, it is the separation of soul and spirit from the body. God can absolutely separate his spirit from his body, which would be called death.
JESUS refused to be called the son of David because that addressed him according to human but he called himself LORD. It baffles your mind , you need the HOLY SPIRIT OF TRUTH TO UNDERSTAND.
Why do we take whatever happened in Calcedon as the true understanding of who God and who Jesus is? Very simply, where did Jesus start? How does a human start? We start our existence in the womb of our mothers by the union of a sperm and an egg and so did Jesus, this. Is how he started, not coming from the spirt realm or as God as the Trinity wrongly says. Jesus received a human spirit just like all of us, we become self aware and intelligent by the spirit God provides, which it returns to Him at death. Ecclesiastes 12:7 but we are not the spirit, we are the union of both, so at death we cease to be.
haha well Chalcedon did result in schism, creating the oriental church. However, your claim that Jesus began as a mere human, born from the union of a sperm and egg, does not align with Orthodox Christian doctrine as expressed in the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD). The Council of Chalcedon affirmed that Jesus Christ is "one person, in two natures, without confusion, without change, without division, without separation," meaning that Jesus is both fully divine and fully human. This divine nature does not diminish His humanity, nor does His humanity negate His divinity. Jesus was not merely a human who received a human spirit like all of us; He is the eternal Son of God, who, as John 1:14 states, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us..." His divine nature existed before His incarnation, and He took on human flesh to redeem humanity. This is not to say that His human soul or spirit is separate from God, but that the Word (the Logos) Himself, the second person of the Trinity, took on human nature, becoming one with humanity while remaining fully God. The question of where Jesus "started" is a misunderstanding of His nature. John 1:1 makes it clear that "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus, the Word, existed from eternity, outside of time and space, before His incarnation. His coming into the world was not a “start” in the sense we understand human beginnings, but rather the eternal Son taking on human flesh in the fullness of time. The belief that Jesus merely received a human spirit and became self-aware through it ignores His divine awareness. As Colossians 2:9 teaches, "For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily." The idea that we "cease to be" upon death is incompatible with Orthodox belief in the immortality of the soul and the resurrection. While it is true that Ecclesiastes 12:7 speaks of the spirit returning to God at death, this is not the end of existence for the soul. Jesus Himself, after His death, was resurrected, affirming that life continues beyond physical death. The Nicene Creed (325 AD), which precedes Chalcedon, speaks of the resurrection of the dead, highlighting the ongoing existence of the soul and the ultimate transformation of the body. TL;DR Jesus did not begin His existence in the same way humans do, and He is not merely a man who became self-aware through a human spirit. He is the eternal Word made flesh, fully divine and fully human, as affirmed by the Council of Chalcedon.
It's amazing how clear this is, but yet probably greater than 90% of Christians will say that you're not even a Christian if you do not believe in the "deity of Christ".

@ken440 I don't ever check out, but I'm sure your pride would love that. I deliver Scripture until foolish people, who are profoundly ignorant of the Bible, can no longer make a salient argument. Unfortunately for me, I don't WORK HERE LIKE YOU DO so my comments get erased. Claiming that Christ was a mortal man is a humiliating exposure of your complete lack of evidence for your case. The Bible makes very clear that Jesus could not have been human from His lack of a human father to His plowing down a regiment of Roman Soldiers with His words.
seems my comments got erased too. I work not just here, but on many unitarian channels. I generally comment to those who hold to old religious traditional ways of misinterpreting scripture, like you are doing here. Your trinitarian view is built not on sound scriptural reading but on error caused by the so called church fathers. My work is with brothers like yourself who criticize the non trinity teaching. I hope you consider your tradition, it didnt help the Jews very much when THEY missed understanding their messiah as you are missing the identity of your lord.
The truth is still the truth no matter who tells the the truth. Muslims get some things right, and so do trinitarians and many other denominations. The Devil has to feed the sheep some truth to trick them into swallowing his lies.
Even more evidence it’s true then :) Muslims call Trinitarians pagans. For a good reason. They call anyone that who worships people or things that aren’t god. For there is only one God. Anything else is a distraction.
I believe with all my heart that there are three persons in the Godhead.Holy Trinity is a bible doctrine.This doctrine is embedded deep in the bible,you cannot dig it out without the shovel of the Holy Spirit.
A lot of times I see the word "Godhead" being used to equate to the trinity. I did a word study on it and found that it's just an archaic word that probably means something like "godhood." It isn't used in the modern translations anymore. It can be found 3 times in the King James Version. But if you look up the Greek word where it occurs, you will see it means something like divinity or divine. It's not even the same Greek word used 3 times and it's not a trinity. So, under close scrutiny, I find that the so called "godhead" just kind of evaporates. Of course, God is divine but He is not a "godhead."
YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT THAT. I TRUELY BELIEVE IN THE HOLY TRINITY OF GOD. AND THERE IS BIBLE BASED SCRIPTURES. TO PROVE THAT . NOW I WILL SAY THAT THE BIBLICAL UNITARIAN WILL PICK OUT CERTAIN VERSES AND TWISTING THEM TO FIT THEIR OWN BELIEVE. MAYBE THEY DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND THE TRINITY OF GOD IS THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. ARE THREE PERSONS IN ONE TRUE GOD. I WILL GIVE YOU SOME BIBLE SCRIPTURES THAT PROVE THIS. FIRST OF ALL LET ME CLARIFY THIS. IN THE TRINITY OF GOD. IS THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. FIRST THE FATHER IS RECOGNIZED AS GOD. LOOK AT 1 PETER CHAPTER 1 VERSE 2 . NOW LOOK AT JOHN CHAPTER ONE VERSE 18 . NOW WE HAVE JESUS WHO IS RECOGNIZED AS GOD. LOOK AT HEBREW CHAPTER ONE VERSE 8 . NOW LOOK AT JOHN CHAPTER 1 VERSE 14 . NOW WE HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT. RECOGNIZED AS GOD. LOOK AT ACTS CHAPTER 5 VERSES 3 AND 4 . NOW LOOK AT JOHN CHAPTER 16 VERSES 7 THROUGH 11 . NOW LOOK AT JOHN CHAPTER 16 VERSES 12 THROUGH 15 . NOW THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY IS NOT EXPLICIT IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, BUT RATHER IMPLIED. AND GOD SAID LET US MAKE MAN IN ARE IMAGE. AT GENESIS 1 VERSE 26 . THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY IS REVEALED IN THE NEW TESTAMENT. MATT CHAPTER 3 VERSES 16 AND VERSE 17 . WE HAVE JESUS CHRIST BEING BAPTIZED IN WATER, THE FATHER SPEAKING FROM HEAVEN, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT DESCENDING AS A DOVE. WE ARE TO BAPTIZE IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. LOOK AT 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5 VERSE 23 . NOW IN THE HOLY TRINITY OF GOD. WE HAVE THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. ALL THREE PERSONS. IN ONE TRUE GOD. ARE GODHEAD . ALL THREE PERSONS EQUAL ONLY ONE TRUE GOD. ONE GOD ONLY! ONE GOD. I USE THE KJV VERSION OF THE HOLY BIBLE. AND THE AMPLIFIED BIBLE SCRIPTURES KJV VERSION MOSTLY IS MY MAIN BIBLE SCRIPTURES. YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BE BLESSED NOW IN JESUS NAME. BE BLESSED NOW. STAY FOCUSED ON JESUS AND HIS FINISHED WORKS ON THE CROSS. JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER GOD. JESUS IS OUR ONLY TRUE SAVIOR. AND OUR REDEEMER FROM THE GATES OF HELL. AND HE WILL GIVE US THE ABUNDANT LIFE. JESUS CHRIST GAVE US THE VICTORY OVER SATAN. WHEN HE SACRIFICE HIMSELF FOR OUR SINS. AT HIS DEATH BURIAL AND RESURRECTION POWER. HE DEFEATED SATAN. JESUS SHED HIS BLOOD AND BECAME THE SACRIFICE FOR ALL MANKIND SINS.
in the begining God intended his created spiritual sons, the first family, to share the creation with the new human family, all part of His great divine council, in the mountain of God (eden) but one in particular, and other of those angelic beings rebelled, dragged the humans into it. God promised that as the devil had deceived the woman that a seed of the woman would eventually destroy that rebel. A man. the bible is the long trail of cat and mouse struggle to achieve that promise, against interference gen6 incursion, corruption of man, flood, more rebellion at babel, a separate nation formed where God focusses on just Abrahams offspring while the other nations are scattered for a time, Moses promises (deut18:18) that one of their own (therefore a jewish man) would be that promised great leader and deliverer. Eventually through much apostasy and rebellion and apathy the "seed war" concludes in Jesus, the promised seed of Eve. The jews are incited by those rebel spirits to kill that Jesus, whereby Gods plan is fulfilled, the blood price paid by the second (this time obedient) Adam, Jesus, who becomes the passover lamb of God. So God saves us by providing the covering blood all who call on the name (authority) are saved to life in the age to come! That lamb, a man, is raised and given great honour and glory (like joseph had been in egypt, a type) and will be the king of the world to come, messiah as promised to the revived nation of Israel, and world ruler for another 1000yrs until all is completed and God is again Alpha and Omega, as you pointed out !! Us, the ekklasia, is a period of grace where the nations can come back into the promise (from the babel event... promise to Abraham) and we are "one NEW man, a NEW CREATION and are NEITHER JEW NOR GENTILE and we are to rule with Jesus, the raised and glorified one, over this coming age of this world, glorified as he is now, 1thes4. At end of the future age Jesus hands the Lordship back to God most high, mission accomplished 1Cor15:28. So that God can again be all in all, rebellion crushed, restoration of Gods original plan, except a slight difference. Due to the rebellion coming from the first family "bene elohim" ( sons of God) we have instead of just being another group of His children, we are raised in His champion, Jesus, "so much HIGHER than angels" (authority talk). Do you see the whole bible condensed in this? No need for Jesus to be God, he is Gods lamb of passover covering. The power is in the blood. Gods provision. God saves by providing the covering. Jesus saves by being the covering. We save ourselves by responding to that covering, by our free will through believing (faith).

Whatever is said in Isaiah doesn't get over the argument put forward in this video. You have to solve the problem of why Jesus only half died, and then you can go to Isaiah.

I hope you come back to the truth He is the only way to Heaven. John 14:6 He is el Gabor, mighty God in Isaiah 9:6. In Isaiah 44 God says I am the beginning and the end in Rev 22 Jesus says the same thing. And that before Abraham was I AM. Gotta watch out for people who don’t understand the trinity. They’ll lead you astray their called JW’s or Mormons all 3 beings make up God
Unless you can adequately explain the problem posed in this video, then there's little point rattling off Trinitarian stock verses. They can be easily understood without them proving a Triune God. What remains though, is that official Trinitarian definitions imply that only half of Jesus died. Which is clearly unbiblical. The person in the video, I would say, understands the Trinity very well, and that's why he doesn't believe in it. And he's not a JW or a Mormon either.

The beauty and depth of the scriptures and God's plan of salvation open up wonderfully when you finally understand that Jesus is the Son of God, and not God. I graduated from Roman Catholic grade school and high school and the trinity was almost painful when I was young trying to sort the trinity out...well it can't, it's mans fabrification.
This is just one in so many potholes that you can lean into when you call Jesus let alone the Holy Spirit god, this testament contradicts the bible on so many different occasions irredeemably that it’s a wonder how people reconcile, like for instance the definition that all three persons in the trinity are equal but the NT quotes Jesus saying “the father is greater than I, the father is greater than all”, these two thing contradict explicitly and there’s hundreds of these contradictory beliefs
You're all confusing the man Jesus as a person and the Spirit of God as ANOTHER PERSON. The very first commandment is to HEAR! that He is ONE Dt.6:4 AND Mark 12:29. If He's only one, then He can't be two persons or a "trinity." You site verses that show his humanity because he was 100% a man. But what about the verses that show He is God? "Before Abraham was, I AM!" or "Philip, hast thou been so long time with me and not known me? When thou seest me, thou seest the Father" In Rev. He's the "Almighty" In Isaiah He is the Everlasting FATHER! etc. I've studied this for 40 years.
FATHER IS ALREADY A PERSON EVEN BEFORE THE INCARNATION... Hebrews 1:3 New King James Version 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of➡️ His person,⬅️ and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

John 1:1, 14 (KJV)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV)
6 And again, when he (God the Father) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him (God the Son = Jesus).
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

WHAT EXACTLY OUR YOU CALLING THE TRUTH. THE HOLY TRINITY DOCTRINE OF GOD IS THE REAL TRUTH. THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THREE PERSONS MAKE UP ONE TRUE GOD. ARE GODHEAD. ALL THREE PERSONS IN ONE GOD. ONE GOD ONLY. AND THERE ARE ENOUGH BIBLE SCRIPTURES TO PROVE THAT. . I KNOW THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO DON'T REALLY BELIEVE THAT. BUT IT IS VERY TRUE. YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BE BLESSED NOW IN JESUS NAME. BE BLESSED NOW.
THE REAL TRUTH IS IN THE HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURES.
One of the first things that convinced me Jesus is not God, is when Jesus got baptized God spoke down from heaven saying in my son I am well pleased.
Jesus did not speak down from heaven to himself saying in myself I am well pleased
Yes because God is a Trinity, Jesus is the Son, the one that talked then was the Father. The Son isnt the Father.
exactly
@@dlingfasin6826trinity is derived from paganism Holy Spirit and The Father are the same Christ is completely separate
@@chelseaoguike7570 whats your proof? All early church fathers, aka the people that knew the apostles and learned from them or from Jesus directly. Believed in the Trinity.
That’s because Jesus is NOT the Father! Why do people keep saying this? They are not the same in person. They are the same in being. It couldn’t be simpler.
What convinced me that Lord Jesus is not God because He says in the Bible that He is a man Who spoke the truth of God. Simple.
Yes. And Peter says he is a man. And Paul says he is a man. And God said the messiah will be a man (gen3:15). And Moses said the messiah will be a man of the people of Israel (deut18:18) and David says messiah will be a man (psm110) And as the "last Adam" he must be a man like the first Adam.

True... And Christ Himself attested that He's a man Who spoke the truth of God (John8:40,NewCenturyVersion)... Isaiah also said it (Isa.53:3). David said it (Ps.80:17),
Matthew (Matthew1:18,20),
James (Jms5:6,HCSB), and many more.....
but he says John 10:30 "I and father are one" John8:58 Before Abraham was I am. Revelation 1:1-17 "I am the first and the last" he makes it adamant that as much he spoke the truth of God he was God himself.
Except when he says he’s God 😂
Can you please name one scripture, just one, where Jesus states unambiguously, without one’s “personal interpretation” that he is God Almighty🤓
What convinced me was that Satan offered Jesus the world. If Jesus is god makes no sense for Satan to offer that to God since everything belongs to him unless Jesus is not God
That’s so poignant
Are serious is that what your believe of your creator??

Well, Satan is a moron, obviously
Knowing that Jesus isn’t God doesn’t take away from the fact that he was sent by his father.

I was a trinitarian for 42 years, but some of those years I was growing in doubts about the trinity. Then, about 17 years ago I finally became a fully convinced Biblical Unitarian. I have been teaching the Biblical Unitarian since.
I have written commentaries on all the verses the trinitarians misrepresent as proof texts for their false doctrine.
I too was a trinitarian for may years, and had growing doubts about the trinity. Finally about six months ago after much reading, study and prayer I became convinced of the Biblical Unitarian view. Do you happen to have a copy of the commentaries that you have written about the verses trinitarians use that you might share with me?
Where can I obtain your written commentaries on all the verses the trinitarians misrepresent as proof texts for their false doctrine. I would like a copy to help me look into this further. I have been looking into this for a while and I still need some help.
Me to please I beg you I really want you to give me your commentaries

Very nice explanation of such a troublesome doctrine. I grew up only knowing of a trinity God until the past few years as a senior. Once the light went on, it seems so easy to read my Bible and have it make sense how Jesus always defers to His Father and worships Him and is about His business. I never understood the convoluted explanation of three parts of god and one with two different natures, yet the Jesus of the Bible always referred to himself as a man.

ditto here. The fragile thread that religion had made of biblical continuity has become a ships mooring rope.
@@Viral_Christology Correct about 1 and 2; not so much 3. See definition of nephesh... I am a living soul. It'll be awaiting Jesus' return at the Resurrection.

If Jesus was only a man, even if the most perfect human being in the world, he cannot save us from our sin; only God can save us. In that case, we are not be compelled to believe in him. But because he is God in the flesh, he can save us from sin and we are compelled to believe in Jesus. The Bible is clear that Jesus is both God and Man. Because Jesus is both God and Man, his birth, death, resurrection and ascension have elements of mystery in them. God himself is a mystery and Jesus is no exception.
Thanks for your comment, however, there is no verse that says Jesus needed to be God to pay for the sins of mankind. In fact, Hebrews 2:17 says quite the opposite, "he needed to be like his brothers in every respect...to wipe away the sins of the people." He needed to be a human to pay the sins of humanity.
@@biblicalunitarian "He needed to be a human to pay the sins of humanity" - Exactly! that is why God incarnates Himself as human, to suffer and be killed in order to conquer death and save us, and to destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil. How else can they torture and crucify Him if He remains as God when He dwelt amongst men? The nails wouldn't be able to pierce His skin, much less torture Him.
When a mere man sacrifices himself for his friends, he simply puts them out of harm physically, but not spiritually thus, their sins remain. Only the man who sacrificed himself is saved, for their is no greater LOVE you can give than to sacrifice yourself for your friends. BUT, when God sacrifices Himself for humanity (whom He considers friends, brothers and sisters), He saves them spiritually thus, everyone sins are forgiven.
In summary, a mere man can only save himself from eternal damnation but not everyone. Whereas, Jesus is not only man but also God thus, everyone is saved. Man alone has no power to save us from our sins, only God.
Peace and Blessings!
@@biblicalunitarian You are correct that there is no verse that says Jesus needed to be God to pay for the sins of humankind. Jesus was already God and there is no need for him to be God or to become God. But as God he had to become Man in order to pay for the sins of humankind. Hebrews 2:17 is very clear that Jesus who was God had to become like his brothers and sisters in every respect, except of course sin. If Jesus was only man, what was the need for him to become man again?

May Allah bless you brother with eternal happiness Ameen

Good for you, what convinces most people that Jesus is NOT God is when they pick up their Bible and read it wthout their pastor telling them that Jesus is the almighty !
Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time

Well said brother! Thanks for all the work you guys do! The persecution I've received on this topic alone shows me there is something spiritual to it.

The biggest proof that Jesus is not God,
is that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God.
He is his own father they said. IDK I'm confused, but they are confused as well lol.
They confused the terms of God in their religion, let alone anything deep in their religion.
that’s actually more evidence He’s of the same nature of God 😂
that’s like saying the cub of a bear is not a bear

Adam was the "Son of God," and he was clearly not God so that argument doesn't work. God can create/beget humans that are not God. God's act of creation is not like the birthing process of humans. In fact, whatever he creates must not be God, because there is only one God (Deut. 6:4).

The mother of Jesus was a virgin.
God did not mate with Mary.
What convinced me that Jesus is NOT God, was the verse Jn8:58.
"Before Abraham was I AM."
Because when i relied on being told in sermons and books that it showed Jesus pre existed and had no beginning and end, it was my favourite proof verse.
Then one day I was seeking Gods help in understanding a verse in another part of the bible, and I came across Anthony Buzzard taking that "I AM" back to the original greek, "ego eimi" ( everywhere else in scripture translated "I am he") and showed it was just a simple statement of joining self with context of conversation. Not identifying with voices out of burning bushes. ( an angel according to Stevens testimony in Acts).
I became a unitarian within hours, and then all the other proofs I knew just started falling off the high podium i had put them on.

Inspired by the scriptures, and Anthony Buzzard, I wrote the following regarding the mistranslated verse John 8:58:
PART 1
Did Jesus say "I am God? Is God's name I AM?
The use of uppercase letters when translating "ego eimi" in John 8:58 and "ego eimi ho on" in Exodus 3:14, is deceptive and misleads people to think Jesus is YHWH.
The Greek expression, "ego eimi" is never used as a name for YAHWEH, Jesus, or anyone.
The Greek in Exodus 3:14 reads "ego eimi ho on"
"ego eimi" translates (I am)
"ho on" translates (the one who is)."
There is no connection between "ego eimi" in John 8:58 and "ego eimi ho on" in Exodus 3:14-15.
Furthermore, God said to Moses, “Tell the children of Israel this: ‘I am the one who is [ego eimi ho on] Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered, my memorial to all generations.
~ Moses, Exodus 3:14-15.
"I am YAHWEH, that is my name." Isaiah 42:8
The truth has been established by two witnesses. Believe it or perish.
People also need to be aware that the verse numbers are not in the original Hebrew, they are added. There is no sentence breaks either. Therefore, it is improper to break up verses 14 and 15 in Exodus 3.
They must be read together as one statement.
Reading Exodus 3:14 and claiming the Greek expression "ego eimi ho on" is the same as "ego eimi" in John 8:58 does an injustice to the word of YHWH.
The 70 plus Hebrew scholars that translated the Hebrew texts into Greek (LXX) chose to translate "EHYEH ASHER EHYEH" as "ego eimi ho on" which translates to English as "I am the one who is"
The next verse tells us that the "WHO" is "YAHWEH."
Should we ignore the 70 or more Hebrew scholars who all agreed to the above translation?
Jesus NEVER EVER says I am YHWH. Jesus tells us his Father is greater then he is, and greater than ALL.
In John 8:58 Jesus was declaring himself to be the Messiah who was prophesied to come before Abraham existed. He was not declaring himself to be God.
CONTEXT is needed to understand this final declaration by Jesus that comes at the end of a long conversation.
The Greek expression is "ego eimi." This expression is not a name for anyone.
JOHN 4:
25 The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.”
26 Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he (ego eimi).” [the Messiah].
JOHN 7:
28 So Jesus cried out while teaching in the temple, saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. And I have not come on my own, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know.
29 I know him because I am from him, and he sent me.”
31 But many of the multitude believed in him, and they said, “When the Christ [Messiah] comes, will he do more signs than those that this man has done?”
[It's a rhetorical question with an obvious answer. Jesus is the Messiah and there is no other like him].
JOHN 8:
18. I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.” [proof Jesus is not the Father YHWH].
19. Therefore they said to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”
[people who think Jesus is YHWH do not know Jesus or the Father. They worship a god of foolish men's own making].
24. That is why I said to you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am the one, you will die in your sins.”
[I am the one, meaning the Messiah, the one who was prophesied to come before Abraham existed]. The Bible is quite clear on this fact. Deuteronomy 18:18; Genesis 3:15
25. So they said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning. [this is a no brainer. Jesus declared himself to be the Messiah from the beginning and he proved it by fulfilling prophecy and doing miracles].
28 So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am the one. And I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things.
[again, proving Jesus is not YHWH. People who think Jesus is YHWH, know nothing of the Father or the Son. They are delusional. YHWH has not revealed Himself or His Son to them. They Follow a Jesus of their own making].
42. Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; for I have not come on my own, but he sent me. [Jesus is not YHWH....proof text].
43. Why do you not understand what I am saying? Because you are not able to hear my word. [People who willfully believe Jesus is YHWH are not able to hear the words of Jesus, they are spiritually dead and willfully ignorant].
44. You are of your father the Devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar, and the father of them.
45. But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
46. Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe me?
47. The one who is of God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not of God.”
54. Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’
55. And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I were to say, ‘I do not know him,’ then I would be like you: a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.
56. Your father Abraham was overjoyed that he would see my day, and he saw it, and rejoiced.” REV Bible Translation gets it right.
["saw" means KNEW and UNDERSTOOD the prophecies concerning Jesus coming]
57. Therefore, the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?”
[they misunderstood Jesus words].
58. Before Abraham existed, I am ("he"), or, ("the one").
WHO? The one Jesus declared himself to be from the beginning (John 4:25-26; John 7:28-31; John 8:18-19-24-25-28; John 8:42-47).
Jesus said he is the Messiah who was prophesied to come.
Jesus is not YHWH. He never said he was YHWH.
That is the evidence.
That is the CONTEXT.
END OF PART 1
What convinced me is that God is not the author of confusion. Trinity is a topic of confusion and chaos among the people. I have always believed that no matter what the truth is, it must be simple and easy to understand. In God's great Salvation Plan, he would not make things difficult or unusual for people to believe. Trinity does not hold up to that standard for me.
The Trinity is not confusing at all. And the Bible teaches the Trinity.

"1Jn 2:22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son." To deny that the man , Jesus, was the Christ (an anointed man) is antichrist doctrine. Jesus was not God. "Rev 3:21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. . It is not a great feat for God to overcome. But it is huge... for the man, Jesus, to overcome. Thus, he sat down beside his Father. If Jesus is God... can he sit down beside himself?

It is Yeshua which means salvation
There is no person called the word in John's prologue. Not in John 1:14 either. The word in John 1:14 CAME TO HUMANITY and dwelt IN US.....that is the correct compatible translation.
"kai ho logos sarx egeneto kai eskēnōsen en hēmin" = and the word CAME TO HUMANITY and dwelt IN US.
Humanity = the human kind of flesh (sarx).
The word came to us by way of YHWH placing his words into Jesus and Jesus delivered them to us for the purpose of DWELLING IN US.
Again. their is no second god person called the word in the Bible. Revelation 19:13 applies to YHWH, not Jesus. I cover that in part 2 of my free commentary on John's prologue.
John 1:1
a. In the beginning was the word (ho logos),
b. and the word (ho logos) was integral to God(ton theon),
c. and divine (theos) was the word (ho logos).
Alt: "and the word (ho logos) was divine (theos)."
James Moffatt, former professor of Greek and New Testament Exegesis at Mansfield College in Oxford, England, and author of the well-known Moffatt Bible, agrees. He translated John 1:1c as,
“the logos was divine.”
In 1:1b, Ton Theon with the definite article is properly translated to English as "the God" with an uppercase "G" to signify it is referring to YHWH the only true God. Translators remove the definite article and use uppercase "G" to make God a proper noun referring to YHWH, the only true God (John 17:3).
In 1:1c, Theos without the definite article is normally translated as god with a lowercase "g" and is sometimes translated as "divine."
The divine translation more accurately applies here since there is no other deity mentioned.
In John 1:1 all three instances of "ho logos" do not refer to another person or lessor god. The word is YHWH's word, and more specifically the writer is referring to none other than the GOSPEL which was in YHWH's forethought from eternity.
The use of theos without the definite article, sandwiched between "ton theon" and "ho logos," indicates "theos" is being used as a predicate adjective to describe the spirit nature and qualities of YHWH and His word as being the same spirit, life, light, eternal, holy, and divine Logos. Both YHWH and His Logos are DIVINE.
"Ho Logos" is an attribute and possession of YHWH, not a person, not a lessor god, and not Jesus.
There is no Biblical basis for concluding that the second use of theos (without the definite article) is referring to a second person whose name is the word. The Author does not write: In the beginning was Jesus.
No other deity besides YHWH is mentioned in John 's Gospel. Jesus never refers to himself as "ho logos" and neither do the Apostles.
Quote:
"The second use of theos in John 1:1c serves as a predicate adjective rather than as a predicate noun." [citation: Maximillian Zerwick, Biblical Greek, Rome: Scripta Ponificii Instituti Biblici, 1963, p. 55, par. 171; p. 57, par. 176.
Regarding John 1:1b "pros ton theon"
It is incorrect to insist that "pros" points to another person (Jesus) as having an eternal preexistent relationship with YHWH. What John is telling us is exactly what the Bible teaches: the Gospel is of the same eternal and divine spirit nature as what YHWH is. There is an eternal relationship between YHWH and His word without the word being the person of Jesus.
According to Bauer’s Greek-English Lexicon the preposition pros with the accusative, as in John 1:1, 2, is a marker of movement or orientation toward someone or something. The context determines if it is a person or a something.
Pros can mean a number of things such as, according to Bauer's: toward, towards, to, near, at, during, aiming at, striving toward, against, for, to indicate a connection by marking a point of reference, with reference to/regard to (about, because of, with respect to, which concerns, which belongs to, what makes for, in accordance with, in order to, for the purpose of),in adverbial expressions (“tends toward” Jas. 5:4) by, at, near.
Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon adds the definition “pertaining to.” Also, various translations render pros with the accusative as: Concerning, as respects, pertaining to, of, even to.
Furthermore, the Greek word generally rendered as ‘with’ is para and not pros.
The assumption that "pros" means there is another person "with" God in John 1:1 can only be due to TRADITION. The mystics, Gnostics, and Philosophers like Philo infected the early church with a lessor god and /or logos theory that conflicts with the Bible.
People who insist on this interpretation overlook the Biblical evidence that "pros" can also be translated as "with" when referring to a something, rather than a someone. (Examples below).
NOTE:
The LXX renders pros ton theon as “to God.”
Eighteen other occurrences of pros ton theon in the New Testament Scriptures are translated as: “to God,” “toward God,” “related to God” or “pertaining to God.” For example, many translations render the phrase pros ton theon in Hebrews 5:2 as: “pertaining to God...” (NASB); “in relation to God...” (ESV); “related to God...” (NIV). Similarly, in Hebrews 2:17 and Romans 15:17.
The same or similar phrases are used in a number of other texts. Bauer’s choice of phrase for Romans 15:17 is “that which concerns God” in its rendering of "ta pros ton theon."
Regardless, there is Biblical evidence that "pros" can be translated as "with" when referring to a something integral to God such as his spirit, nature, attributes, word, wisdom, power, love, etc.. However, in my opinion: "integral to God" is more accurate. Truly God's word is an integral part of who God is (the self revealing one).
Job 10:12-16 informs us that God’s attributes such as life, love, wisdom, power are with Him.
Isa 40.10; 62.11 states “His reward is with Him.”
2 Kings 3:12 states “The word of the Lord is with him.”
In John 1:1c the Greek phrase "pros ton theon" refers to things and not a person. Other examples make this point clear. We have:
“things with God” (Heb 2:17; 5:1; Rom 17:15)
“conscience with God” (Acts 24:16)
“confidence with God” (2 Cor 3:4; 1 John 3:21)
“peace with God” (Rom 5:1)
“Faith with God.” (1 Thessalonians 1:8)
Jesus cannot be read into the text of John 1:1 as being YHWH or the word because YHWH and His word are not begotten or born. Jesus was begotten and born.
John 6:63 states God's word is spirit, meaning: of the same divine eternal substance.
God is a spirit. (John 4:24)
God's word is spirit. (John 6:63)
God's word does not become flesh. (John 3:6)
God's word is placed INTO Jesus. Deuteronomy 18:18.
Jesus, the Son of God, is not the "word" (logos) of John 1:1. Rather, Jesus spoke his Father's logos....the very words he said belonged to his FATHER. (John 7:15-17; John 12:49-50; John 14:10; John 14:24).
The belief that the word of God became the flesh of Jesus conflicts with the Bible which teaches us that the word of God came THROUGH Jesus to humanity to dwell in our hearts and minds and transform us. The Logos of God was placed into Jesus by God. Deuteronomy 18:18; Acts 3:22
@WilliamJonesBilly Jesus is certainly Lord ! you will read in Acts2:36 where and when God made Jesus lord. But Jesus is NOT God !!

@@lb7625 The name means salvation but it does not mean Jesus is God.
Here is a little Bible lesson about names:
*Emmanuel means God is with us* Matthew 1:22-23
In the Bible, a title or a name is not necessarily saying something about the one who bears it, but rather about the God who anoints them and whom they serve. For example,
Jeremiah means 'YHWH will exalt'
Samuel means ‘his name is YHWH’;
Daniel means ‘YHWH is my judge’;
Ezekiel means ‘YHWH strengthens‘;
Elijah. Means "YHWH is my Elohim."
Nehemiah means ‘YHWH comforts’;
Joshua means ‘YHWH is salvation’;
Josiah means ‘YHWH supports’;
Hezekiah means ‘YHWH strengthens’.
There are many more examples to demonstrate the point.
Emmanuel, refers to the God who begat Jesus and anointed him as His Messiah. No one in Jesus' day would have thought he was God in human form. Obviously, based on the words of His Father which Jesus spoke, his miracles, and his powers, God had visited his people through his prophet and Son Jesus. see John 3:1-2
"For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit,.."

NEWSFLASH;
ALMIGHTY GOD does NOT bleed!
ACTS 20:28, Is simply making reference to the one who "Obeyed" his
GOD and FATHER, in Willingly dying on the Cross.
PHIL.2:8-11.
Jesus was a MAN, ( ACTS 2:22-24/GAL.1:1/ROM.5:15-19/1 TIM.2:5,
ETC., therefore, HE could Bleed. ALMIGHTY GOD IS SPIRIT, HE
does NOT consist of "FLESH!" And HE doesn't reduce HIMSELF to the Lowly State of mere mortal. Scripture TELLS us what HE did.
And what HE did was.....HE, "Raised up a Son, by way of human
birth," to die for our sins. GAL.4:4-7.
Jesus was, "Born of a woman.....Born under the Law. "
WHOSE "Law?"
The Law of GOD HIMSELF.
You don't understand the usage of the word, "Manifest. " It simply
Means, "Showed Forth. " In other words, GOD revealed the
Salvation of man "THROUGH, " HIS, "Only Begotten Son. "
Once AGAIN;
ALMIGHTY GODS does NOT BLEED!
Just goes to show how RIDICULOUS your doctrine really IS!!
And you don't even SEE it!

Actually, if you Knew your, Bible a bit better, you'd KNOW, GOD
HIMSELF is Not "Flesh, 0:05 0:05 " not in ANY Sense of the word! Obviously,
ACTS 20:28, Is making reference of Christ, who offered himself
as the, "LAMB of GOD." GOD HIMSELF is never refered to as a,
"LAMB!" And Jesus is also called, "The Son of man." This too,
is NOT a designation that was ever given to GOD HIMSELF.
ALSO-------Jesus is called the, "2ND ADAM, " because the First ADAM
failed to represent his GOD and FATHER.
Obviously, ALMIGHTY GOD is never refered to in this way!
1 TIM.2:5, Draws a Clear, and DISTINCT Difference between GOD and Christ. Jesus, on the one hand, is called, the, "MEDIATOR
between GOD and Men.......the MAN, Christ Jesus. "
One is the, "Mediator," or, "Go between, " the Other is HE that is
giving DIRECTION to the Mediator.
Also;
In PSALM 16:10, Jesus is compared to a, "PROPHET like unto Moses. " We see the N.T., Fulfillment in ACTS 2:27.
LUKE 24:39, Is where Jesus tells the Frightened Disciples, that
he is NOT a SPIRIT. And this was AFTER both his Resurrection and Glorification!
And there are MANY such Contradictions to the, "Jesus is GOD, "
Theology.
If GOD the FATHER isn't the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT, then just What IS HE?
Jesus, on the other hand, is NEVER Portrayed as a SPIRIT, much less, the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT!
This automatically illuminates him as GOD!

Great topic. Also consider O.T. "God is not the Son of Man", or what's the point of Jesus being tempted for forty days if God cannot be tempted. Or consider the transfiguration, if Jesus is God He wouldn't have needed Moses and Elijah counsel and comfort. Or consider 1 Corinthians 15:20-28.
Moses and Elijah were just a vision. They weren’t there ‘in person’.
Who is speaking in Revelation 21:6-7?
I’ve just come to this realisation. Jesus was a flesh and blood man.
He had to be born of the physical seed (sperma) of David.
Jesus could never have been our High Priest if He was God. The High Priest had to make atonement for his own sin first and that’s exactly what Jesus did:
Hebrews 5:3-4 3Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for HIS OWN SINS just as he does for those of the people. 4And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

Answer this question, if there's only one person in the One God, then who was the God in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself when God the Father left Jesus?
One person in the One God, was in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself, and another person in the One God who left Jesus.
You seem to be taking the time frame of 2 Cor. 5:19 and making it occur at the same time as Matt. 27:46 (my God my God, why have you forsaken me). These are two completely different passages which occur at different times. There is nothing in 2 Cor. 5:19 to suggest that "God was in Christ in the moments leading up to Jesus' death, when Jesus said God had forsaken him." Not only is this contradictory, there is nothing in either text to suggest this.
There is simply nothing close to teaching what you said in scripture: "One person in the One God, was in Jesus reconciling the world to Himself, and another person in the One God who left Jesus."
I can find my definition of God in the Bible, "For us there is one God, the Father (1 Cor. 8:6), can you find your definition of God in the Bible?
@biblicalunitarian it's easy to see that you are inspired by the devil to spread his lies.
2 Cor 5: 19, clearly says God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. It has to be when Jesus was on the cross.
Matthew and Mark clearly says Jesus was forsaken by God.
Proving Two distinct persons in the One God.
So, stop telling lies and answer the question.
Jesus is the Mediator between God And Human
...."The MAN Jesus" ....to be correct.
As a muslim I believe jesus is mighty prophet of god sent to children of Israel ... To convey the right path and beleive in one god like all other came across prophet moses Abraham ... Jesus call god elaha in Aramaic language
Jesus was sent as a prophet yes, but especially as a saviour to put away sin, by the sacrifice of himself. All mankind is in bondage to sin. So he said: 'Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed' (John 8:34-36).
Can your religion give you this freedom from sin?

And we don't believe in original sin from adam and eve
When Adam and Eve realized that they have disobeyed God by eating the fruit they called:
"They said:
'Our Lord we have wronged ourselves souls. If You forgive us not and bestow not upon us Your Mercy, we shall certainly be of the losers' " (Quran 7:23)
And God accepts their plea:
".. Thus did Adam disobey his Lord, so he went Astray. Then his Lord chose him, and turned to him with forgiveness, and gave him guidance." (Quran 20:121-122)
Adam and Eve were instructed not to eat from a certain tree. Satan deceitfully tricked them into disobeying their Lord and as a result:
"(God) said:
'Get down (from the Garden), one of you an enemy to the other [i.e. Adam, Eve, and Satan]. On earth will be a dwelling-place for you and an enjoyment -- for a short time'. He (God) said:
'Therein you shall live, and therein you shall die, and from it you shall be brought out [i.e. resurrected].'(Quran 7:24-25).
the Qur'an is clear that God's plan was what to have Adam and his descendants on Earth. That was the plan to test us on Earth. /// God has forgiven the adam and eve . God doesn't need any blood sacrifice asking god forgiveness and repented is needed and we don't need any mediator pastor to listen our sin .. pray like jesus (pbuh)
Mattew 26. [39] And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.// As a muslim we pray like jesus search on yt how muslim pray
@@umerkhan6257 The reason why it was necessary for Jesus to die, was first of all that he had to overcome our sinful human nature. Hebrews 2:14 says that in dying he destroyed that which had the power of death. The cause of sin had to be destroyed in order for us to be properly forgiven.
When a man sinned God required the shedding of blood for the remission of that sin. This would have involved the death of the man each time someone sinned. So, God provided the animal that its blood might be shed instead. But, why was blood so important in this process? Because the life of the body is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11). Therefore what God was actually requiring was the life of the man. When he sinned his life was to be returned again to God. So, when the blood of an animal was offered upon the altar, it signified the life of the man being given back to God.
However, the death of an animal was only a temporary solution. It had no lasting effect because the animal itself was mortal. It's life was temporary, therefore it's cleansing effect was only temporary. It needed the blood of a sinless man, who would live forever, to give everlasting cleansing. So, when Jesus died as an offering for sin, it brought an end to all other offerings. Because his one offering brought eternal redemption from sin.
In addition to this, the New Covenant of forgiveness which Jesus introduced, had to be dedicated with blood, like the Old Covenant was. The Old Covenant was dedicated with the blood of an unblemished animal, which only made it effective temporarily. But, the New Covenant was dedicated with the blood of the sinless man, which gave it everlasting effect.
@@eddieyoung2104 Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time

@@theguyver4934 I agree that the Trinity is a later addition, and I don't believe in it. Hell, the Bible teaches is a place of burial. Original sin, as the Bible teaches it, is the nature inherited from Adam. The lust of the flesh which causes us to sin. And Jesus spoke about the things which come from within us and defile us (Mark 7:20-23). So, if Jesus taught it, then that's early enough for Christianity. The atonement is also mentioned at the beginning of the gospel record, by John the Baptist. He said about Jesus, that he was the lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29).
Of Ishmael God says that he will make him a great nation (Genesis 21:18), and the Muslims truly are a numerous people, and Islam has had great empires. Nevertheless, God said to Abraham, 'in Isaac shall thy seed be called', and 'in thy seed shall all nations of the earth be blessed'. Ultimately Jesus is that promised seed, through whom all people can come unto the Father, the Almighty God. And it is through Jesus, because only he dealt with the problem of our sinful nature which separates us from God. Only he destroyed it by his perfect obedience and his death. If we don't believe in that, then all we have to make us righteous is good works. And by those nobody is made righteous, because one sin is enough to make you a sinner.
Jesus Christ is in reality
The Great Jehovah. And no one or anyone can prove like wise. "Send Me!* Said Jehovah, and all the glory I will give unto YOU. As to Lucifer wanted all the glory be his. Lucifer was banished from Heaven.😇

Jesus died. GOD NEVER DIES.
Absolutely true. Deity of Jesus is a false doctrine. Goes away from the simplicity of the Gospel. The Gospel is accessible to everyone to understand. When the theology is too complicated so that we have to go to special human beings with more Brain to understand then it's a warning. Jesus be like a little child. Do not complicate the truth.
Not everyone is going to fully understand the gospels. Theology being complicated just shows how complex God is and how incomprehensible he truly is. Just because you don't get it and you can't grasp it doesn't mean its false. The truth isn't for everybody but it can be for you if you have an open mind and ask God for Guidance.

When Jesus or anyone dies, their souls don’t get destroyed, it gets separated from the body. When Jesus died, his soul got separated from his body, but he still had teo natures then he resurrected and reunited with his body.
yep the problem is what they think the definition of death is. if it's a separation of body and soul, can God experience a human death by adding a human nature, come as a man, and then have that flesh destroyed? ofcourse.

the hope being the resurrection wouldn't negate the definition of death. it's the final part of salvation, ofcourse that's the hope, to finally receive eternal life. now which definition do you use as death? do we cease to exist?
These verses show physical death is a separation of body and soul:
Matthew 10:28 (Jesus detailing God's power as being able to destroy both body & soul in comparison to creatures who can ONLY destroy body. obviously meaning the soul isn't destroyed in death. a separation...)

James 2:26 (body without spirit = death)
Revelation 6:9-11 (john seeing the souls of the martyrs under the alter)
God is immortal, Jesus died, therefore He cannot be God.
this makes sense without context
someone can make the same argument and read 1 Kings 8:46 (detailing that all men sin) in comparison with 2 Corinthians 5:21 (saying Jesus is without sin) and say "therefore, Jesus cannot be a man". it's like a cherry picked argument from a muslim who fears context.
I used to believe that definition of death as well, until I realized that it was a very platonic idea, not a Jewish/Christian one. The biblical hope was not to "die" so that they could be with God in their soul. Rather, it was to be resurrected (1 Cor. 15; 2 Tim. 2:11; Rom. 8:11). I really would ask you to consider, do you realize that by using your definition of death, you have changed the meaning such that it now means to "live" just in a soul and not a body. Do you see how dangerous that is? It is like changing "fat" to mean "skinny."
Regardless of your meaning of death, it still doesn't get around the Trinitarian problem. However you define death, God cannot die (1 Tim. 6:16; 1 Tim. 1:17) to be "immortal" means you cannot die, so if Jesus died, he is not God.
The problem with that for classical trinitarian Christians is that they believe Jesus' body is also Divine. They don't believe he was a Godly soul in a human body-I'm pretty sure that's considered a heresy.

I’d like you to break down what you mean
@adamthemuslim-x6t ….im not denying Jesus wasn’t a man. I’m just saying he wasn’t merely a man but God in human form
Here’s what confuses me. If Jesus wasn’t God why did he accept or take on Godly attributes. One thing that always stood out to me was worship and how the angles and prophets of old would always defer worship and remind them only God is worthy of worship
But I’ve never seen Jesus in the scriptures ever deny the worship being given to him.
Either Jesus is conceited and not a righteous man. But that’s blasphemous
So then Jesus is worthy of worship, but how so when God alone is worthy of worship?
I also don’t get how you’re gonna be baptized in the father son and Holy Spirit if the father literally is the source of the other two. Coequal or triune nature seems to better encapsulate this idea
Matthew 28:19:
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”
I await your response
God cannot be tempted, Jesus was tempted in all points without sin, when we really see Jesus as a man our respect and awe for Him rises immensely for He did what you and I are faced with every day and He overcame. We seem to succumb at times. He beat the devil at his game, including death, for God His Father raised Him from the dead! Great video, you go Biblical Unitarian!!!!

May I please add The Biblical Facts Jesus Is Not GOD Or An Angel, Or Pre-existed His flesh!
By Simon Brown
In the beginning was GOD's word, not GOD's Son, John 1:1, Genesis 1: 3 And God said.
Jesus is The (Word of GOD), NOT GOD the Word, John 1:14, Revelation 19:13.
GOD did not become flesh, or is He a MAN, or a Son of MAN. The Word of GOD became the MAN Jesus, Numbers 23:19, John 1:14.
If Jesus were Michael the Archangel, John 1:14 would say: and Michael the Archangel became flesh.
If Jesus were GOD the Father, John 1:14 would say: And GOD the Father became flesh.
The True Jesus was foreknown, not Pre-existing, 1 Peter 1:20.
Nowhere in the whole Bible does it say Jesus was going ''BACK'' or ''RETURNING'' to the Father. John 13:3,John 16:28.
In the beginning GOD spoke through the prophets, not through the Son Hebrews 1:1.
GOD spoke through His SON in the last days, not in the beginning of days Hebrews 1:2.
GOD The Son cannot be the SON of GOD, because The Son would instead be the Son of Himself.
GOD gave His SON, not Himself. John 3:16.
If the Father were the SON, why would the Father need to come as the SON?
Why would we need a Mediator to get to GOD, if Jesus were already GOD?
No one has ever seen GOD at any time, John 1:1, 1 John 4:12, contrary to the fact that Jesus has been seen thousands of times.
Jesus has a GOD, so Jesus cant be that GOD.
Humans and Angels must not worship Angels, proving Jesus was not an Angel. Revelation 22:9.
The Only Begotten Son was Begotten, GOD is not Begotten, but always was.
The true Jesus was BORN from GOD, not from eternity.
Jesus is The (Son of Man), GOD is not a Son of man Numbers 23:19
Jesus must be a MAN and not GOD, to be a Mediator between GOD and Man.
Jesus is the second and last perfect Adam, so as Adam did not pre-exist, nor did the second, and last perfect Adam.
Jesus freely gave His life, which would not be possible if Jesus were GOD.
Jesus is never called The Almighty GOD, but the SON of the Almighty GOD, John 10:36.
The Almighty GOD never ever said He was the Son, just as the Son never ever said He was GOD.
Jesus said He could do nothing on His own proving He was not Almighty GOD.
Jesus will hand over the world back to GOD, but should be back to Himself if Jesus were already GOD.
GOD is ONE person, that's why GOD is called The ''ONE TRUE GOD'' John 17:3.
THREE separate persons who are each GOD, makes THREE GODS, and not One GOD.
Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say GOD is THREE persons.
In John 14:11 Jesus tells us He is "IN" the Father and the Father is ''IN'' Him. If Jesus were GOD that would make TWO GODS.
Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say the Holy Spirit is a separate person.
There is no separate Holy Spirit in John 1:1, or John 10:30, or on GOD's throne, or anywhere in the whole Bible.
Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say Jesus is the creator.
Nowhere in the Word of GOD does it say Jesus was GOD and a MAN, or had two natures.
A Pre-existing Jesus could not be The True Christ, because The True Christ came into existence in the women's womb as The Son of MAN.
Christ never means I AM GOD, but means (The anointed one of GOD).
In John 8:58 Jesus said: (I am). NOT I Existed.
John 8:58, (I am) means (I am the one), as seen in John 4:6. NOT I AM GOD, or ALIVE before being born.
Notice how Jesus tells us in John 8:56 Abraham your father rejoiced in that he should see My day--and he saw it and rejoiced."
Did you notice how nothing was said by Jesus saying He was ALIVE and saw Abraham, which should be the case if Jesus meant what most believe that Jesus was GOD or ALIVE with GOD before He was Begotten?
Thanks to GOD through Christ!
Because of GOD, Jesus will live for eternity, proving Jesus is not GOD.
Because of Jesus, we can come to know the One True GOD and father of creation.
Because of Jesus, the saved will live for eternity, so lets thank GOD for Jesus, for eternity.
What GOD and Christ do you know?
You say a lot of truths but you have a misunderstanding of what trinitarians believe.
You keep coming back to that Jesus can't be God the Father, and this is exactly what they believe. They don't "confuse the three persons of the deity, so the Son is not the Father and neither is the Father the Son." Actually, they don't believe that God is a person at all. They believe that God is an essence, and this essence (God) consists of three seperate persons. That's why the classical trinitarian formula is: God is three in person but one in essence, three who's but one what.
Might sound crazy but this is actually what they believe.
@@RufusBlad Excuse me, I know very well what the Trinitarians say and believe.
I was a Trinitarian for 10 deceived years, who also taught the Trinity was true, and at one time used the same scriptures they us.
The PAGAN TRINITY is ONE God as three separate persons.
The PAGAN TRINITY was adopted by the Catholics from the TRINITY pagan gods.
@@RufusBladIn this trinitarian view there can be no son and no father, these become arbitrary meaningless titles to two of three 'gods' .......you could call them John Paul and Ringo, makes no difference.
Ask a trinitarian if God has a Son, or if Jesus is the son of his Father, they can't just say yes.
@@Shilly-Mcshillface
Yeah, I totally agree. In a trinitarian mind God is not his father, but rather that's a quality God has. They might not say this, but through what they say and teach you see it. That's why you hear things like: "you have to get to know God as a father", which is actually a pretty strange statement because if you get to know God you will automatically know the Father. But for a trinitarian God is three persons you can get to know, and these three persons has different roles. So instead of God as a divine being being our Father (which would mean 100% of that being is our father) the trinitarian believes that God is a being in which the person God the Father is our Father. So in the end, only 33% of the trinitarian God is the Father.
I once listened to a sermon called "The God I never knew" speaking of the Holy Spirit. It must seem odd that a person can say he knows God (Jesus), but then say that he doesn't know the Holy Spirit (for him also God) and therefore have to read books about getting to know the Holy Spirit. In the end "Father, Son and Holy Spirit" are just meaningless titles, just as you said.
The reasons a false belief is difficult to challenge is because of fear.
False beliefs almost always cover emotions of grief which people don’t want to feel.
Trinity isn’t nusf one issue. The very nature of God suddenly becomes more loving and simple.
There is a lot of grief in this, because that opens the door to the fact God might not have needed to sacrifice anyone, and also that we may all ACTUALLY be equal children in gods eyes. All children of God. Just as the bible says.
Most Christians use evidence of sacrifice as ways to be very unloving in their relationship demanding sacrifices of each other.
That’s also thrown out of the window. It also makes the very. Orion if Jesus seem more powerful. A man attained that? Suddenly it opens the door that god loves us enough that WE might attain that also!
Christ never claimed to be god. He claimed to be the son of man. In John 16:11
He said that the spirit has condemned the prince of this world , according to judgement. To be the son of god , that automatically makes you a prince. Which is Satan , with their pretentious title the sons of god. Christ is a prophet , not god. But the spirit was working with him. He is our brother not our god.
Actually, Jesus did claimed He is God. "You shall not tempt the Lord your God" - (Matthew 4:7).
Peace and Blessings!

The spirit of god revealed to me that Christ is our brother not our god. He was not allowed to rise above the creation. Which the spirit informed me , means humanity. And he proves this by being poor and homeless. He told the smug and religious men of his day. That in the last days they would not enter into his rest. And they were like , adamant they were allowed. But didn't we perform miracles in your name? And cast out demons in your name? And did many wonderful works in your name? Why are we not allowed. Because when I was hungry you didn't feed me. When I was thirsty you didn't give me water. When I was naked you didn't cover me. When I was in prison you never came to see me. When I was in sorrow you didn't comfort me. The religious men said. When did we ever see YOU!! in those conditions??!! If you never helped the out cast , the low life , the poverty stricken. You never helped me! Be gone with you , I don't know you.
Paul said in those times , once the man holding Satan back is gone. The miracles performed would be in accordance with the powers of Satan. Satan will be performing his dance and magic show on those going with him. The ones who worshiped the false prophet , the white Jesus.
@@Arnold-uf1ko I'm not sure with your personal revelation from God. You might be a prophet or not. Only you and God can know that because He is the only one that can see through you, not me or anyone else. If you're faking it then you are answerable to Him, if not then good for you but for me and the rest of the Christians out there, we believe in his words in the Bible thus, I can only give you scriptures to attest my words or comments.
JESUS IS GOD
When Satan tempted Jesus in Matthew 4:7, only the two of them were talking. I know Jesus was quoting a scripture (that's pretty obvious) but He only did that to remind Satan who He is, by saying with authority "You shall not tempt the Lord your God".
Now, tell me. Who was Satan tempting at that moment?
If Jesus were just a mere man, or were just a prince or lesser than God then He would be committing a serious blasphemy against God (His Father) by just uttering those words to Satan, don't you think? Then, He can no longer be called righteous and pleasing to God and find favor in Him because blasphemy is a sin. Since, Jesus is without sin thus, He was surely telling the Truth because there are no lies in Him, for He is the Truth. "I am the way and the truth and the life..." - (John 14:6).
Peace and Blessings!

Faith is something personal. And it's not a debate , matching wits to prove itself worthy. I told you. Christ is our brother , we are forbidden to worship , man , angel and demon. Why then would god come in human form to debase his own law? Satan was tempting a powerful prophet. Not god. How could you think that god would be tempted by a mere man. Satan is a man. Can you imagine my disappointment when I saw them in person ; they were trying to recruit me. Where as the beings of light who I did speak to. Were as god , but they were adamant they were men like myself. Only of a higher faith. Satan and his human men call themselves by a pretentious title ... the sons of god. You are raised in lies. I was taught from childhood what those lies are by the spirit. And before you go there. NO!!;. Satan would never EVER!! pose as a being of light. And give you proof there is a god , then you repent , and all that.
@@TheWitness-fx4xqThis is the first time ever I hear that interpretation of Matthew 4:7. It is normally understood as a response of Jesus to Satan's claim that he could just throw himself down the pinnacle of the temple and God would send His angels so that he wouldn't get hurt. So Jesus then says: "Again it is written: 'You shall not put the Lord your God to the test'". This would then be something Jesus says as a response to Satan but which applies to himself. "No, I won't throw myself down because it is also written..."
This interpretation is also supported by the next temptation to fall down and worship Satan. It wouldn't make sence if Jesus would say to Satan, who is telling him to worship him: "No Satan, YOU shall only worship the Lord YOUR God." As in the second tempation, Jesus is using the truth from the Scripture to fight of Satan's temptations. So even if he is responding to Satan, the application is to himself.
Jesus basically says: I shall not only live by bread alone (first tempation), I shall not tempt the Lord my God (second temptation), I shall only worship the Lord my God".
Also, this happens while Jesus is being tempted in the dessert, which proofs he isn't God because it is written: God cannot be tempted by evil (James 1:13)."
Jesus is God. Romans 8:58, Christ said “Before Abraham was born, I am!”
*John 8:58. And no, saying "I am" does not make you God, or else the blind beggar in John 9:9 is also God.
In John 8:58, Jesus is not declaring himself to be God. Many think this verse references Exodus 3:14, where God says "I AM THAT I AM" (according to the KJV). However, Jesus did not use that expression in John 8:58. He used the Greek phrase “ego eimi,” meaning “I am,” which is commonly used throughout the Bible. For example, in John 9:9, the man cured of blindness by Jesus says “ego eimi” to identify himself. Peter also uses the same phrase in Acts 10:21: "I am the one you are looking for." This shows that “ego eimi” was not a claim to divinity. Some translations offer a more accurate rendering of John 8:58, such as “I existed before Abraham was born.” Rather than claiming to be God, Jesus was claiming to have existed before Abraham. There are many scriptures showing that Jesus did not claim to be God. For example, in John 17:3, Jesus prays to the Father calling him “the only true God,” and in John 10:36 he only claims to be God's Son.
I agree with your theology. But how does Col 2:9, Is 9:6 and Mtt 1:23 fit in with your understanding. Though Jesus is not intrinsically God, the Bible says He will be called "God with us", "the Mighty God", "the Everlasting Father" and the fulness of Deity dwells in Him. Could you help me understand how you see this?
Moses was made God to pharaoh
I will respond to each of those verse you quoted.
First Colossians 2:9
also see Colossians 1:19
In Colossians 2:9 the Greek word "theotes" is incorrectly translated as “Deity” or “Godhead” in most English Bibles.
Deity of course means God from the Latin word Deus. This conflicts with many unambiguous verses in the Bible.
The Greek word "theotes" occurs only once in the Bible. A variation "theiotes" is found in Romans 1:20 where it is also improperly translated as "Godhead" in some English Bibles. The correct rendering in English is "divine nature." The word "Godhead" is a trinitarian invention.
"Godhead" (KJV) is a trinitarian concept, which is why it is found in most English Bibles and only in one verse (Colossians 2:9)
To understand the meaning of theotes we have to consider the context and how the first century Greek speaking Colossians understood the meaning of "theotes."
Other translations have theotes translated as:
"divine plenitude" Mace New Testament
"Divine Nature" Catholic Public Domain Version
"God's nature" Weymouth New Testament
"divine nature" Good News translation
"God's nature" Holman Christian Standard Bible
"God's nature" Christian Standard Bible
"divinity" Smith's Literal Translation
The above translations demonstrate the correct meaning of the verse is:
"the fullness of YHWH's divine nature dwells in Jesus."
EIther way you choose, the KJV rendering or the above, neither means Jesus is YHWH.
Liddell and Scott's Greek lexicon for ancient Greek translates "theotes" as “divinity, divine nature.” This is the meaning the Colossians would have perceived from Paul's use of "theotes."
Paul would have understood the word "theotes" the same way the Colossians understood its meaning in their culture. Paul was not presenting them with a new definition of the word "theotes." If he was, he would have said so and he would have given an explanation for any such change in meaning.
Imposing modern views on the text while ignoring the contemporary language and views of Paul's time is eisegesis, not exegesis. Paul wrote his letters in Koine Greek, common Greek.
"For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body." Colossians 2:9 REV Bible. This translation conveys the correct meaning, although "the fullness of the divine nature" is my preference, as this is how the Colossians would have read the verse.
The "Fullness of God" or "Fullness of Deity" relates to Jesus being filled with YHWH's holy spirit “without measure,”
(SEE: John 3:34).
Clearly Jesus had the fullness of the “divine nature” dwelling in him. This is what Paul is stating in 1 Colossians 2:9.
Does this mean Jesus is God? For those who think so, what about the next verse?
*_"So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority."_*
Colossians 2:10
The same is said about every Christian elsewhere in the Bible (Ephesians 3:19; and 2 Peter. 1:4).
Since believers are complete through their union with Jesus, these verses cannot be saying Jesus is God without his followers being God also.
The fulness of God is another way of saying "being full of God's spirit."
John states:
*_“.......for God gives him the spirit without limit."_* John 3:34
Paul states:
*_“God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him.”_* Colossians 1:19
*_"And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God."_* Ephesians 3:19
Colossians 2:10; Ephesians 3:19; and 2 Peter 1:4 tells us (believers) that we have that same fullness, so verse 9 does not convey the idea that Jesus is God.
Next I will respond to Matthew 1:23: *Emmanuel-God with us?* Matthew 1:22-23
The Brown-Driver-Briggs lexicon says the meaning of Immanuel is
*‘with us is God.’*
Does this mean Jesus is God? No!
In the Bible, a title or a name is not necessarily saying something about the one who bears it, but rather about the God who anoints them and whom they serve. For example,
Samuel means ‘his name is God’;
Daniel means ‘God is my judge’;
Ezekiel means ‘God strengthens‘;
Nehemiah means ‘Yah comforts’;
Joshua means ‘Yahweh is salvation’;
Josiah means ‘Yah supports’;
Hezekiah means ‘Yah strengthens’.
There are many more examples to demonstrate the point.
Immanuel, refers to the God who begat Yahshua and anointed him Messiah. No one in Yahshua's day would have thought he was God in human form. Obviously, based on the words of His Father which Yahshua spoke, his miracles, and his powers, God had visited his people through his prophet and Son Yahshua. see John 3:1-
Now I will deal with Isaiah 9:6-7
*ISAIAH 9:6-7* The corrected translation from the REV Bible
6 For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty Hero, Father of the Coming Age, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end. He will reign on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to sustain it with justice and with righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of Yahweh of Armies will perform this. REV Bible.
ISAIAH 9:6-7, a prophecy of the coming Messiah. Also see Deuteronomy 18:18 which makes it clear that the Messiah will be a prophet like Moses that YHWH raises up from the Israelites. Also note that Jesus was prophesied to be a descendant of David. Can YAHWEY be a descendant of David. Absolutely not, but the man Christ Jesus was!!
So let's look at Isaiah 9:6-7.
The opening verse of the chapter foretells a time when “there will be no more gloom for those in distress.” All war and death will cease, and “every warrior’s boot…will be destined for burning” (v. 5). Verse 5 comes about by the Messiah reigning on earth in verse 6 (yet future, because his kingdom on earth is not yet established).
NOTE that many prophecies are written as having already taken place, yet they take place in the future. It's referred to as the Hebrew Idiom "prophetic perfect." YHWH sees all past, present, and future laid out before Him. For example: Jesus was crucified before the foundations of the world (Revelation 13:8), in YHWH's foreknowledge it was a done deal, though it would be thousands of years after the foundations of the world that Jesus would be crucified.
Jesus the Nazarene, was a MAN delivered over by the PREDETERMINED PLAN AND FOREKNOWLEDGE OF GOD. He was put to death by godless men (Acts 2:22-23).
He was FOREKNOWN BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, BUT WAS REVEALED IN THESE LAST TIMES for your sake, who THROUGH him are believers in God, the one who raised him out from among the dead and gave him glory so that your trust and hope are in God. *1 Peter 1:20*
The point is, in YHWH's foreknowledge, it's past tense and a done deal. That is why Isaiah 9:6 is written in the past tense and considered a Hebrew "prophet perfect Idiom."
The prophetic perfect idiom, or tense, is a literary technique used in some OT prophetic writings that describe future events that are so certain to happen that they are referred to in the past tense as if they had already happened. Isaiah 9:6 is one example.
Those who claim Isaiah 9:6 doesn't refer to the Messiah but rather to King Hezekiah are simply wrong for very good reasons. In chapters 38 and 39, Hezekiah died as a grown man, while the Israelites were still in captivity so he could hardly be the one referred to in Isaiah 9:6. Furthermore, he only turned to prayer on his deathbed.
"Churchianity" is also wrong on this verse because it does not say Jesus is God or "Almighty God." Translations that read that way are in conflict with the Bible. The KJV translators got it WRONG, and since most English translations follow the KJV, they also get it wrong.
1. *"Mighty God"* is a mistranslation in Isaiah 9:6.
Reasons:
i). In the Bible, a man who is acting with God’s authority can be called “god" using the lowercase "g" in reference to lords, kings, judges, prophets, and even the children of Israel. For example:
"I (GOD) said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.'
Psalms 82:6 Jesus quoted this verse in John 10:34-36 to defend himself against the FALSE allegation by the Jews that he was declaring himself to be equal to God (YHWH). Jesus of course disagreed with their false accusation and declared himself to be the Son of God and NOT God the Son.
ii). The original Greek has no upper and lowercase letters so "theos" can be translated as God when accompanied by the definite article "ho" (the), meaning YHWH (the one true God), or as god, meaning lord, master, judge, king, ruler, or one with authority. Most readers of the Bible do not know these things about the word God and god, or that it is up to the translators to determine whether the context indicates the use of uppercase (God) or lowercase "god" for anointed humans, false gods, or the god of this world who is the Devil.
It makes much more sense to remove the pagan word God or god from the Bible and use YHWH's name as he commanded in the OT.
iii). A clear example of the Trinitarian bias of most translators can be clearly seen by comparing Isaiah 9:6 (el = “God”) with Ezekiel 31:11 (el = “ruler”). *If calling the Messiah "el" made him God, then the Babylonian king would be God also.*
iv). Isaiah 9:6 is calling the coming Messiah a *mighty ruler or mighty hero,* not Mighty God.
v). Translators can use "mighty god" (lowercase "god") to identify the coming Messiah as an appointed authority, king, or ruler. However, it is an error to use the uppercase "God" because that is reserved for YHWH alone.
vi). A better translation for the English reader would be “mighty hero,” or “divine hero.” Martin Luther and James Moffatt translated the phrase "Mighty God" as “divine hero” in their Bibles.
vii). Another translator's error is where “God” is used for powerful earthly rulers in Ezekiel 31:11 when referring to the Babylonian king. How can a earthly king be God? It should be rendered god, king, lord, ruler, but not God.
viii). The phrase translated “Mighty God” in Isaiah 9:6 in the NIV is the Hebrew "el gibbor." That very phrase, in the plural form, is used in Ezekiel 32:21 where dead “heroes” and "mighty men" are spoken of. In Ezekiel the same phrase is translated “mighty leaders” in the NIV, and “the strong among the mighty” in the KJV and NASB. When used in the singular, it can refer to a “mighty leader."
ix). Jesus sits on the throne of David in verse 7. YHWH does not sit on David's Throne. YHWH is the one that created David's throne and gave it to Jesus.
*Conclusion:* For all the above reasons Mighty God is a mistranslation. The context of Isaiah 9:6 concerns the Messiah as God’s appointed ruler. The opening verse of the chapter foretells a time when “there will be no more gloom for those in distress.” All war and death will cease, and “every warrior’s boot…will be destined for burning” (v. 5).
How will this come to pass?
The chapter goes on: “for to us a child is born and to us a son is given” (v. 6). There is no hint that this child will be “God.” There is no hint of any “incarnation” here either. The Messiah was to be a man anointed by God.
Deuteronomy 18:15-18. He would start as a child, which of course Yahweh, their eternal God, could never be.
The Messiah would grow to be a great ruler: “the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty Hero, Father of the Coming Age, Prince of Peace.”
The Messiah "will reign on David’s throne (v. 7), which is something that is never said of God. God could never sit on David’s throne. But God’s Messiah, “the Son of David,” could (Matt. 9:27, et al).
Thus, a study of the verse in its context reveals that it does not refer to Jesus as God. It refers to the human Messiah, the son of David and the Son of God.
One more comment on Isaiah 9
2. *Everlasting Father* is a mistranslation.
Jesus is never called the “Everlasting Father” anywhere else in Scripture. We do not build our understanding of who the Messiah is based on one scripture reference.
The word translated “everlasting” is more accurately translated as “age,” or "ages." Isaiah 9:6 is conveying the message that Jesus will be called *"the father of the coming ages."* What ages? THE CHURCH AGE, the AGE OF SALVATION, Age of Grace, and the Age of the Millennial Kingdom of Messiah on earth.
"Father" in Isaiah is not a reference to YHWH.
In OT times, anyone who was the first to do or begin anything new was called its “father.” For example:
*a) Jabal was the first one to live in a tent and raise livestock, the Bible says, “he was the father of those who live in tents and raise livestock” (Genesis 4:20).*
*b) Jubal was the first inventor of musical instruments, he is called, “the father of all who play the harp and flute” (Gen. 4:21).*
In Isaiah 9:6, “father” is being used in this sense of the word because the Messiah will be the one to establish the ages to come, end the death penalty for sin for those who believe, raise the dead saints, and rule over all creation, therefore he is called the *“father of the coming ages.”*
“Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save. Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the Lord? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Surely shall one say, In the Lord have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed. In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.”
Isaiah 45:20-25 KJVAE
“For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
Romans 14:11 KJVAE
“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
Philippians 2:5-11 KJVAE
“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”
1 Timothy 3:16 KJVAE
God was manifest in the flesh, God was justified in the Spirit, God was seen of angels, God was preached unto the gentiles, God was believed on in the world, God was received up into glory. GOD DID ALL OF THIS IN THE MAN CHRIST JESUS, THE SON OF GOD. GOD MANIFESTED HIMSELF IN THE FLESH (SON OF GOD). Jesus was the tabernacle or temple of God. All the fulness of God dwelt in him. That’s why he sometimes is referred to as the God man. He wasn’t just ANY man. He would house the presence of the eternal Spirit (the Father). Hebrews 9 says that Christ offered himself without spot through the eternal Spirit. Jesus is God and He is the lamb that sits on the ONE throne set in heaven.
Unitarians are correct to say that Jesus was a man. But they fail to recognize that ALL of the fulness of God dwelt in that man. He wasn’t just any man. Jesus said I and my Father are one and that all men should honor the son even as they honor the Father. Hebrews reiterates “Let all the angels of God worship Him”. A mere man must not be worshipped. Jesus said before Abraham was ‘I AM’. There is only one who can lay claim to that title; YHWH Himself told Moses I AM hath sent you. And a mere man cannot say he existed before Abraham was unless He were present before Abraham existed. He was the eternal God who was in Christ Jesus. Jesus said ‘Destroy this temple and in 3 days I will raise it up’. How could he being a man raise it up? Jesus was the temple. He was also God who dwelt in the temple. “Thou hast prepared for Him a body”. God dwelt in the man Christ Jesus who was the temple of God. God was in Christ reconciling the world unto HIMSELF. Yes He was a special man. Jesus said if you believe not that I AM, you shall die in your sins. He was a man but he wasn’t just ANY man. He was Emmanuel, GOD WITH US. The Father provided eternal redemption through the son. The fulness of God dwelt and dwells in the son. I am not Trinitarian. I am a oneness believer. I am just repeating what the word says about Jesus. Jesus is the one God manifest in the flesh. He is God and the lamb that is sitting on ONE throne set in heaven. He must reign as a son, the son of God, until all enemies are made his footstool. And then when that happens, God will be all in all. There will no longer be a need for sonship.
In addition to Jesus’ specific claims about Himself, His disciples also acknowledged the deity of Christ. They claimed that Jesus had the right to forgive sins-something only God can do-as it is God who is offended by sin (Acts 5:31; Colossians 3:13; Psalm 130:4; Jeremiah 31:34). In close connection with this last claim, Jesus is also said to be the one who will “judge the living and the dead” (2 Timothy 4:1). Thomas cried out to Jesus, “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28). Paul calls Jesus “great God and Savior” (Titus 2:13) and points out that prior to His incarnation Jesus existed in the “form of God” (Philippians 2:5-8). God the Father says regarding Jesus: “Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever” (Hebrews 1:8). John states that “in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word [Jesus] was God” (John 1:1). Examples of Scriptures that teach the deity of Christ are many (see Revelation 1:17, 2:8, 22:13; 1 Corinthians 10:4; 1 Peter 2:6-8; Psalm 18:2, 95:1; 1 Peter 5:4; Hebrews 13:20), but even one of these is enough to show that Christ was considered to be God by His followers.
Jesus is also given titles that are unique to YHWH (the formal name of God) in the Old Testament. The Old Testament title “redeemer” (Psalm 130:7; Hosea 13:14) is used of Jesus in the New Testament (Titus 2:13; Revelation 5:9). Jesus is called Immanuel-“God with us”-in Matthew 1. In Zechariah 12:10, it is YHWH who says, “They will look on me, the one they have pierced.” But the New Testament applies this to Jesus’ crucifixion (John 19:37; Revelation 1:7). If it is YHWH who is pierced and looked upon, and Jesus was the one pierced and looked upon, then Jesus is YHWH. Paul interprets Isaiah 45:22-23 as applying to Jesus in Philippians 2:10-11. Further, Jesus’ name is used alongside God’s in prayer “Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ” (Galatians 1:3; Ephesians 1:2). This would be blasphemy if Christ were not deity. The name of Jesus appears with God’s in Jesus’ commanded to baptize “in the name [singular] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19; see also 2 Corinthians 13:14).
Actions that can be accomplished only by God are credited to Jesus. Jesus not only raised the dead (John 5:21, 11:38-44) and forgave sins (Acts 5:31, 13:38), He created and sustains the universe (John 1:2; Colossians 1:16-17). This becomes even clearer when one considers YHWH said He was alone during creation (Isaiah 44:24). Further, Christ possesses attributes that only deity can have: eternality (John 8:58), omnipresence (Matthew 18:20, 28:20), omniscience (Matthew 16:21), and omnipotence (John 11:38-44).
Now, it is one thing to claim to be God or to fool someone into believing it is true, and something else entirely to prove it to be so. Christ offered many miracles as proof of His claim to deity. Just a few of Jesus’ miracles include turning water to wine (John 2:7), walking on water (Matthew 14:25), multiplying physical objects (John 6:11), healing the blind (John 9:7), the lame (Mark 2:3), and the sick (Matthew 9:35; Mark 1:40-42), and even raising people from the dead (John 11:43-44; Luke 7:11-15; Mark 5:35). Moreover, Christ Himself rose from the dead. Far from the so-called dying and rising gods of pagan mythology, nothing like the resurrection is seriously claimed by other religions, and no other claim has as much extra-scriptural confirmation.
There are at least twelve historical facts about Jesus that even non-Christian critical scholars will admit:
1. Jesus died by crucifixion.
2. He was buried.
3. His death caused the disciples to despair and lose hope.
4. Jesus’ tomb was discovered (or was claimed to be discovered) to be empty a few days later.
5. The disciples believed they experienced appearances of the risen Jesus.
6. After this, the disciples were transformed from doubters into bold believers.
7. This message was the center of preaching in the early Church.
8. This message was preached in Jerusalem.
9. As a result of this preaching, the Church was born and it grew.
10. Resurrection day, Sunday, replaced the Sabbath (Saturday) as the primary day of worship.
11. James, a skeptic, was converted when he also saw the resurrected Jesus.
12. Paul, an enemy of Christianity, was converted by an experience which he believed to be an appearance of the risen Jesus.
Even if someone were to object to this specific list, only a few are needed to prove the resurrection and establish the gospel: Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection, and appearances (1 Corinthians 15:1-5). While there may be some theories to explain one or two of the above facts, only the resurrection explains and accounts for them all. Critics admit that the disciples claimed they saw the risen Jesus. Neither lies nor hallucinations can transform people the way the resurrection did. First, what would they have had to gain? Christianity was not popular and it certainly did not make them any money. Second, liars do not make good martyrs. There is no better explanation than the resurrection for the disciples’ willingness to die horrible deaths for their faith. Yes, many people die for lies that they think are true, but people do not die for what they know is untrue.
In conclusion, Christ claimed He was YHWH, that He was deity (not just “a god” but the one true God); His followers (Jews who would have been terrified of idolatry) believed Him and referred to Him as God. Christ proved His claims to deity through miracles, including the world-altering resurrection. No other hypothesis can explain these facts. Yes, the deity of Christ is biblical.
Hi! Do unitarians believe in the rapture? Most christians nowadays believe in this, but the doctrine just seems off to me? How can we all just fly in the sky when Christ comes? That makes no sense. Also, how do you deal with people calling you a heretic? When you try and tell people this info they are quick to say you are committing heresy. Oh! One more question 😂. If the trinity comes from pagan orgins, what about Christmas, Easter, weddings, and other stuff like that? Thanks in advance!
@@jordyn_shorts I can't answer for other Unitarian groups, but as a Christadelphian, we don't believe in the rapture. But, instead that Jesus returns to raise the dead, immortalise the faithful who are alive at the time, and then he establishes the kingdom of God on earth, where the saints reign with him.
How do I deal with being called a heretic. I don't get too bothered about it, because it's just standard stuff. On UA-cam it is anyway.
Christmas and Easter are generally acknowledged among Christadelphians as having pagan origin, and because of that some don't celebrate them, but others don't get hung up about it. Again I can't answer for other groups. Personally, even without the pagan origin, I think Christmas is a waste of money, and over hyped. And the fact it gets people into debt, makes it an event to be discouraged if we want the best for each other. At least the gifting side of it anyway. But as a body we don't have a definite position on it. Weddings I've not considered as pagan, but I guess certain aspects might be.
God gave Jesus the authority over flesh - He inherits the right to forgive sin.
However, each time he healed, he said to the prostitute and the many by the pool go and sin no more - that's a command
All false religions and cults have one thing in common, they all deny the deity of the LORD God Almighty, Jesus Christ.
Troy------Jesus is NOT the Eternal, Almighty, Omniscient HOLY SPIRIT.

Jesus is the second PERSON in the Godhead. He is fully God. Like it or lump it.
Brother, you’re looking as physical death as non-existence. The fact that Jesus died physically doesn’t necessarily mean he seized to exist.
Respectfully, I'm looking at death as ceasing consciousness. And you seem to be looking at death as "being alive in your soul" which is extremely Platonistic. I would encourage you to look into that more, I've spent many hours looking into the issue myself.
Either way, it doesn't matter how you define death. God is immortal (1 Tim. 6:16) which means that one cannot die. And Jesus died. So, even if you have a different definition of death, whatever death is, God can't do it, and the Bible says that Jesus did it.
@@biblicalunitarian 1 Peter 3:18-19. Jesus didn't cease consciousness.
@@biblicalunitarian
1. Jesus never cease to be conscious.
2. God can decide to do whatever he wishes. Who are we to determine what God can and cannot do?
It’s just like saying “because God doesn’t eat and Jesus ate when he was on earth, hence he’s not God”
Physical death doesn’t affect the deity of Jesus in anyway. Moreover, he didn’t come from heaven with the physical body. He had existed before taking the human form.
@@biblicalunitarian Agreed jesus died. There is no such thing as a spirit. Nobody has a spirit and this is not supported in scripture. Once jesus died, God raised him up. God's cannot die, eat, drink, or even be looked at. Yet, jesus was none of that, therefore he is not god. if you worship jesus at all, it is considered blasphemy. come my brother, join me in praising Allah!
Death does not mean ceasing to exist. Death on earth simply means physically leaving this realm. God can not cease to exist so God can not die in the way I think you’re talking about.
However, if God was to enter the world by taking on flesh God could leave this plane of existence by ‘dying’.
I hope this misunderstanding doesn’t keep you away from digging deeper :)
These words makes sense.
Just like biblical and historical evidence proves that jesus and his apostles were vegatarians biblical and historical evidence also proves that the trinity, atonement, original sin and hell are very late misinterpretations and are not supported by the early creed hence its not a part of Christianity I pray that Allah swt revives Christianity both inside and out preserves and protects it and makes its massage be witnessed by all people but at the right moment, place and time

Simple explanation and well said. Thank you for taking the time to make this! This is the passage that truly convinced me.
"Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil- and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants. For this reason he had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted." Hebrew 2:14-18
@MrsTaylor
Some verses says that Jesus is God, let us see:
Isaiah 9:6 (KJV) For unto us a child (Jesus) is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Romans 9:5 (KJV) Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
John 1:1, 14 (KJV)
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV)
6 And again, when he (God the Father) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him (God the Son = Jesus).
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
so, only these some verses declare that Jesus is God, still many other verses proof it.
@@Husein_Tan let me stop right there. Just scrolling very briefly through your list of verses you have chosen to use some very questionable translations. For instance: John 1:1. Based on knowledge of “logos” or “Word” in English, this translation has been pulled from either the KJV or the NIV and in both of these translations that capitalize “Word” has if it is referring to a proper noun. The “word” is used nearly 300 times in the Greek New Testament and only 7 times did they decide to capitalize it in the KJV and NIV. If you go back and research the logos, it disappears from translations nearly half of the time. To make this absolutely clear, the word “logos” in the Greek has many meanings including account, appearance, book, command, conversation, eloquence, flattery, grievance, heard, instruction, matter, message, ministry, news, proposal, question, reason, reasonable, reply, report, rule, rumor, said, say, saying, sentence, speaker, speaking, speech, stories, story, talk, talking, teaching, testimony, thing, things, this, truths, what, why, word and words. So capitalizing “word” and applying a meaning that is not found anywhere else in scripture is NOT a reasonable argument for the trinity. You are holding to incorrect teachings for what???
@@MissusTayIor
see verse 6 & 8
Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV)
6 And again, when he (God the Father) bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him (God the Son = Jesus).
7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
@@Husein_Tan let’s not skip over some important verses there. “Hebrew 1:3
“Who is the reflection of his glory, and the exact representation of his nature, and is upholding all things by his powerful word. After he had accomplished the cleansing for sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” Notice some important information here. Reflection and representation but never suggesting that he is exactly him but exactly who he calls himself to be. The only begotten son. A lot like his father by not equal.
Now for your verses:
“And when he again brings the firstborn into the inhabited world, he says, And let all the angels of God bow down before him. And of the angels it says, who makes his angels as winds, and his ministers as a flaming fire, of the Son it says, Your throne is God forever and ever, and the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness rather than your companions.
Trinitarians say that Hebrews 1:8 supports that trinity but this is a direct reference to Psalm 45 and God’s promise there. Jews never read Psalm 45 to mean “God in the flesh.” There has been much debate about Psalm 45 but even Trinitarians scholars are unsure of its exact translation for how the word “god” is being used. Another thing to note, is the phrase “God, your God.” How are they coequal and coeternal if Jesus has a God? He prays to his God, obeys his God, calls him his God.
@@Husein_Tan your Is9:6 "mighty god" in Hebrew is "el gibbor" which is also in other places in scripture used to say "mighty one" and also refer to king of Babylon. The term "el" which is rendered God in your verse was a common term for "God" in other cultures in the mid east in ancient times.
If any one grew up being taught the Bible then the best thing to do is get completely away from all of them you grew up around for several years and clear your mind by renewing it, forget all that you was ever taught and open your Bible to the beginning and tell Yehovah God to send His Spirit of Holiness to teach you the truth and read through the Bible without studying just read word for word until you complete your Bible and then start over in the beginning and read through again and continue, this way you will know that truth and you will be free from man’s imagination and adding to sweeten it up with lies and then you will be able to catch all error from others and you will be able to correct reprove and rebuke according to the Word of Yehovah God and the teachings of Yeshua ha Messiach,
The Spirit of Holiness will lead you into all truth, guide you in the way of Messiach, teach without error, comfort with assurance of your salvation, and warn you of things to come

The Trinity IS Biblical doctrine
jesus christ is a human being NOT god - whosoever says jesus is god is blaspheming !!!!!!!
The Father calls Jesus God. What're you talking about???? The scriptures clearly call him God
Yes, it is true that God cannot die but Jesus as the Messiah, the son of David according to the flesh (as Paul often reiterates) could die as a fleshly being - but it would not make sense for Paul to repeatedly distinguish that Jesus was the son of David "according to the flesh" if that is all that Jesus was - Jesus was the son of God according to the spirit - as Jesus taught Nicodemus, that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit - Jesus was the only begotten son of God and in Jesus the fleshly human that could die dwelt the fullness of Deity in bodily form (Col 2:9) - or do you believe that God as his father contributed nothing to the birth of his son - so although God, the father, could not die, He, YHVH, says in Zechariah 12:10: they will look on me whom they have pierced (clearly a prophecy about the crucifixion and the 'me' refers to the speaker, YHVH) - and again in Rev 1:7 John quotes Zechariah 12:10 saying he (Jesus) is coming with the clouds and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him. So, God may not be able to die but he so closely associates himself with his son, the Messiah, that from His perspective, the Messiah being pierced is He Himself being pierced. God gives us the perfect metaphor in Isaiah of how the Messiah relates to the Father saying that the Messiah is the Branch of the LORD which would make the LORD the Tree - if a branch is cut off as Jesus was, does the Tree die, No. But the LORD can and did raise the Branch to life again.
So, it seems you are splitting apart his natures, going against the Council of Chalcedon. Also, never once do the scriptures say that "part" of Jesus died, or just his "flesh" died, or that his divine nature did not die. Is that concerning to you, if that is really what happened to Jesus?
The scriptures do not seem concerned at all to just say Jesus died. But modern Trinitarians feel the need to qualify that well, only part of Jesus died.
Zech. 12:10 has textual variants that say "look on him" not "look on me" and Rev. 1:7 is not quoting Zech. 12:10, although there are some parallels.
Nope, we totally believe God contributed to the birth of his son, the virgin birth. But being created by God doesn't make you intrinsically divine. Angels were created directly by God, Adam was too, but neither of them are divine. So, being a "Son of God" does not make you God, in fact, it makes you clearly not God. The son of Bill is not Bill.
It says he is immortal, not that he cannot die! Jesus said himself he has power to lay down his life and raise it up again.
Bro what??

@@calebrandall3802 What do you mean by, "Oneness?"
Yes indeed, Jesus is not god nor a son of god , actually God doesn't need a son to save people as most of christians use to say . Jesus is just another god's messenger
The New Testament repeatedly affirms that Jesus is the Son of God in a unique and divine sense, not merely a prophet or messenger. For instance, in Matthew 16:16, Peter declares, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God," and Jesus affirms this as a revelation from God the Father. Similarly, John 1:1-14 identifies Jesus as the eternal Word who "was God" and became flesh. Orthodox Christianity teaches that Jesus is eternally begotten of the Father, not created, making Him of the same essence (homoousios) as the Father, as affirmed in the Nicene Creed, 325 AD.
Jesus did fulfill a prophetic role in His earthly ministry, He is far more than a messenger. Orthodox teaching asserts that Jesus is God incarnate, who took on human nature to save humanity. This is evident in passages like John 10:30, where Jesus states, "I and the Father are one," and Colossians 2:9, which declares, "In Him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily." Unlike mere prophets, Jesus forgave sins (Mark 2:5-7), accepted worship (Matthew 14:33), and exercised divine authority over nature, life, and death (Mark 4:39; John 11:43-44). These are acts only God can do.
God’s plan of salvation necessitated the Incarnation, not because God needed a son in the sense of dependence but because His love willed it. Hebrews 2:14-17 explains that Jesus became human to destroy the power of death and reconcile humanity with God. This profound act of love is echoed in 1 Timothy 2:5, which describes Jesus as the "one mediator between God and men," uniquely qualified because He is both fully God and fully man.
The early Church Fathers, closest to the Apostolic era, consistently affirmed Jesus’ divinity. St. Athanasius, for example, wrote, "God became man so that man might become god," referring to humanity’s deification (theosis) through union with Christ. The Church’s ecumenical councils, such as Nicaea (325 AD) and Chalcedon (451 AD), rejected any notion that Jesus was merely a man or messenger, affirming His full divinity and humanity.
Scripture shows that Jesus was worshiped as God, something no prophet or messenger would accept. After His resurrection, the disciples worshiped Him (Matthew 28:9), and in Revelation 5:12-13, He is worshiped in heaven alongside God the Father. The title "Son of God" does not imply biological offspring or inferiority but signifies His eternal relationship with the Father, being of the same divine essence. John 5:18 makes it clear that calling God His Father made Him "equal with God."
Amen, truth spoken here!

- **Mark 14:36**: "And he said, 'Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.'"
- **Luke 22:42**: "Saying, 'Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.'"

It's hard to ignore all the verses in the bible that talk about God being Yeshua's (Jesus') Father. Here are just a few...
John 20:17
"Yeshua said to her, 'Stop holding on to me, because I haven't yet gone back to the Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am going back to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"
This verse shows Yeshua referring to YHWH as "my God," indicating His relationship with God the Father.
Matthew 27:46 "About three, Yeshua uttered a loud cry, 'Eli! Eli! L'mah sh'vaktani?' (My God! My God! Why have you deserted me?)"
In this verse, Yeshua refers to YHWH as "My God" while on the cross.
Mark 15:34 "At three o’clock, Yeshua uttered a loud cry, 'Elohi! Elohi! L'mah sh'vaktani?' (My God! My God! Why have you deserted me?)"
This is a parallel account of Yeshua's cry on the cross, where He refers to YHWH as "My God."
2 Corinthians 1:3 "Praised be God, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, compassionate Father, God of all encouragement and comfort."
Paul, in his letter, refers to God as the Father of Yeshua, which implies that Yeshua has a God.
Ephesians 1:17 "That the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you will have full knowledge of him."
Here, Paul refers to "the God of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah."

These references further demonstrate that Yeshua has a God, and they highlight Yeshua's relationship to YHWH as His Father.
Hebrews 1:9 "You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore, O God, your God has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions."
This verse is quoting Psalm 45:7 and speaks of Yeshua being anointed by "your God," which indicates that Yeshua has a God.
2 Corinthians 1:3 "Praised be YHWH, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, compassionate Father, YHWH of all encouragement and comfort."
This reiterates that YHWH is both the God and Father of Yeshua.
Revelation 1:6 "And made us a kingdom, cohanim for YHWH, his Father - to Him be the glory and the rulership forever and ever. Amen."

These verses continue to reinforce the relationship between Yeshua and YHWH, illustrating that Yeshua acknowledged and depended on YHWH as His God throughout His earthly ministry and beyond.
Everybody hates the book of John? Jesus is part of the Godhead, Heavenly Father, Holy Spirit and the Son, Jesus
. Jesus is himself is God in nature omnipotence, Creator that nature of God but He submits to the Father The King , thats is why he is called the Prince of Peace because the King is Father. Jesus had to come down to be a human being and that is by the power of the Holy Spirit to fulfill the law because Jews can’t do it and that is why Jesus was worthy to be the ultimate sacrifice for the sins of mankind

Death is a state which is impossible to be assigned to God, as non-physical beings cannot possibly experience physical death. A more accurate statement than “God cannot die” is God cannot cease to exist. In becoming man, God the Son took on a physical human form/nature, and thus can experience physical death human death. But when Jesus died, He never ceased to exist. He has always existed, will always exist, and never once stopped existing, even in physical death. When a human being dies, they do not cease to exist. So when Jesus experienced physical death, His human and divine natures were never separated since neither natures ceased to exist
The whole story is nonsensical because it’s wrong and has been tainted by human fallibility. According to prevailing Christian belief, God had to make himself human to sacrifice himself to himself to save people from the punishment that God “had” to issue to fulfill the law that he created despite knowing he made fallible beings. The Trinity not only is illogical on the face of it( “3 things are 1 but also 3” is absurd reasoning) but it also makes the entire story of Christ nonsensical and meaningless. What true sacrifice is it of an all-powerful God to sacrifice himself to himself? That’s not what sacrifice means.
The truth is actually very simple. God, like He has many times before as recorded in the Bible, sent us a Messenger named Jesus. The Messenger was threatened and refused to stop preaching God’s message, and was willing to sacrifice his life to spread God’s word. He died on the cross and His spirit is with God now, but Jesus clearly accomplished His mission as His message spread to every corner of the over and is still around thousands of years later. Messengers of God are a station above mere human beings but they are not God.
@@MissRegionRat The Trinity is not a contradiction but a divine mystery: one God in three distinct persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As the Nicene Creed, via the First Ecumenical Council (325 AD), affirms: “We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds…” (Nicene Creed). This encapsulates the belief that Jesus Christ is not just a prophet but the eternal Son of God, fully divine and fully human, who became incarnate to restore humanity to God. The idea that God “sacrificed Himself to Himself” is a misinterpretation; Jesus' death is an act of divine love, not a legal transaction. As Apostle Paul writes in Romans 5:8: “But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross was necessary for the redemption of humanity, where he defeated sin and death and offered eternal life.
Secondly, Jesus did not merely deliver a message! He was the message, embodying God's love and salvation. In John 14:9, Jesus says, “Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.” The Orthodox Church teaches that through His death and resurrection, Jesus fulfilled God's plan for salvation, bringing humanity back into communion with Him. This was affirmed at the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD), which clarified that Jesus is one person with two natures: “truly God and truly man”.
The Gospel is not a story of meaningless suffering but the ultimate act of self-sacrificial love that transforms the world. Jesus' sacrifice was necessary for salvation, as stated in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” The truth of the Gospel is revealed in Christ's actions, not as a contradiction, but as the fulfillment of God's divine plan for the salvation of the world. Cheers.
imagine god going to toilet 😂
...imagine God dying. ...God being tempted. ...God not being able to do anything of himself. A God created fully human. All of that according to Scripture. Clearly he is not God then.
Well, let John 1:1, the Holy Scripture speak louder then your premise that He, as the Word, was God.
If you fail to believe that He is God, your faith in Jesus Christ is in vain and that you have desecrated the very scriptures you based your faith on amid your false and misleading unitarian premise and theology!

@@eddixxon WRONG WRONG WRONG. You apparently do NOT understand your own doctrine. What is the logos? As a die hard trinitarian you should know it.
John 1:1. Based on knowledge of “logos” or “Word” in English, this translation has been pulled from either the KJV or the NIV and in both of these translations that capitalize “Word” has if it is referring to a proper noun. The “word” is used nearly 300 times in the Greek New Testament and only 7 times did they decide to capitalize it in the KJV and NIV. If you go back and research the logos, it disappears from translations nearly half of the time. To make this absolutely clear, the word “logos” in the Greek has many meanings including account, appearance, book, command, conversation, eloquence, flattery, grievance, heard, instruction, matter, message, ministry, news, proposal, question, reason, reasonable, reply, report, rule, rumor, said, say, saying, sentence, speaker, speaking, speech, stories, story, talk, talking, teaching, testimony, thing, things, this, truths, what, why, word and words. So capitalizing “word” and applying a meaning that is not found anywhere else in scripture is NOT a reasonable argument for the trinity.
Tell me WHERE IN THE SCRIPTURE DOES IT SAY THAT I NEED THE TRINITY FOR SALVATION??
Not an argument. How can God be with himself?
@@eddixxon What beginning did Gods word of promise get fleshed out? The same beginning as the other three gospel writers, which was about the beginning of this new thing, the church.
I wrote a poem once called “Reasoning Myself To Hell.” I rather believe and be wrong than the other way around, and not believe and be wrong.
Yep totally agree. But scripture also says, "Let us reason together" and compliments the Bereans for "searching the scriptures to see if these things were true", so let's not try to suppress using our minds to understand God.
I can find my exact definition of God in the Bible "For us, there is one God, the Father" (1 Cor. 8:6), can you find your exact definition of God in the Bible?
So, Unitarians are simply believing the scriptures, they aren't trying to "out reason" God.
@biblicalunitarian Searching is not wrong but defying truth is. I have discovered God through many paths. One being science. Like many scientists today I've concluded it is absurd to not believe in a creator knowing the absolute undeniable genius it took to make this planet. We are being hurled around the sun in a precise orbit traveling at 66,000 mph. Be it macro or micro examination of our existence the only logical conclusion is that an omnipotent being was the mastermind and not the result of radom coincidence. The question is not is there God but who is He? Reasoning that God doesn't exist is ludicrousness rooted primarily in bigotry. The vast majority of people never give it much thought, if any, their entire lives. Those that seek will find. I know, because I did.
Just my thoughts.

The beginning of the church? because thats what those other four books are about, and John might just be drawing attention to the beginning of Gods word, recorded in scripture, where there in Gods word we see the promise of a human messiah in Gen3 and Deut18. A promise that was "fleshed out" in the course of time. (see the ancients knew about metaphors too!)
I mean i think I pointed that out to you IN THE BEGINNING.
why did i say i said that at the beginning of creation? It was my Word in these comments. Not the creation of the universe.
Brother i was a trinitarian for almost 40 years, working in christian radio, fault finding in logic assemblies, helping creation ministries international, missions, until 6 years ago when i turned my attention solely on scripture and the worldview of those it was written too at the time, and checking tbe language it was written in. Then became apparent the religious tradition that translational bias (Alexandrian greek) had done to it, needing reformation and myriad bible versions and religious power play.
I pray you will read your scripture outside of the preacher who insists you read John first, and see the trinity. Its a lie. The real picture is there in the text if you read it without the blinkers fitted by meddling priests.

JESUS refused to be called the son of David because that addressed him according to human but he called himself LORD. It baffles your mind , you need the HOLY SPIRIT OF TRUTH TO UNDERSTAND.
Why do we take whatever happened in Calcedon as the true understanding of who God and who Jesus is? Very simply, where did Jesus start? How does a human start? We start our existence in the womb of our mothers by the union of a sperm and an egg and so did Jesus, this. Is how he started, not coming from the spirt realm or as God as the Trinity wrongly says. Jesus received a human spirit just like all of us, we become self aware and intelligent by the spirit God provides, which it returns to Him at death. Ecclesiastes 12:7 but we are not the spirit, we are the union of both, so at death we cease to be.
haha well Chalcedon did result in schism, creating the oriental church. However, your claim that Jesus began as a mere human, born from the union of a sperm and egg, does not align with Orthodox Christian doctrine as expressed in the Council of Chalcedon (451 AD). The Council of Chalcedon affirmed that Jesus Christ is "one person, in two natures, without confusion, without change, without division, without separation," meaning that Jesus is both fully divine and fully human. This divine nature does not diminish His humanity, nor does His humanity negate His divinity. Jesus was not merely a human who received a human spirit like all of us; He is the eternal Son of God, who, as John 1:14 states, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us..." His divine nature existed before His incarnation, and He took on human flesh to redeem humanity. This is not to say that His human soul or spirit is separate from God, but that the Word (the Logos) Himself, the second person of the Trinity, took on human nature, becoming one with humanity while remaining fully God.
The question of where Jesus "started" is a misunderstanding of His nature. John 1:1 makes it clear that "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Jesus, the Word, existed from eternity, outside of time and space, before His incarnation. His coming into the world was not a “start” in the sense we understand human beginnings, but rather the eternal Son taking on human flesh in the fullness of time. The belief that Jesus merely received a human spirit and became self-aware through it ignores His divine awareness. As Colossians 2:9 teaches, "For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily."
The idea that we "cease to be" upon death is incompatible with Orthodox belief in the immortality of the soul and the resurrection. While it is true that Ecclesiastes 12:7 speaks of the spirit returning to God at death, this is not the end of existence for the soul. Jesus Himself, after His death, was resurrected, affirming that life continues beyond physical death. The Nicene Creed (325 AD), which precedes Chalcedon, speaks of the resurrection of the dead, highlighting the ongoing existence of the soul and the ultimate transformation of the body.
TL;DR Jesus did not begin His existence in the same way humans do, and He is not merely a man who became self-aware through a human spirit. He is the eternal Word made flesh, fully divine and fully human, as affirmed by the Council of Chalcedon.

A lot of times I see the word "Godhead" being used to equate to the trinity. I did a word study on it and found that it's just an archaic word that probably means something like "godhood." It isn't used in the modern translations anymore. It can be found 3 times in the King James Version. But if you look up the Greek word where it occurs, you will see it means something like divinity or divine. It's not even the same Greek word used 3 times and it's not a trinity. So, under close scrutiny, I find that the so called "godhead" just kind of evaporates. Of course, God is divine but He is not a "godhead."

in the begining God intended his created spiritual sons, the first family, to share the creation with the new human family, all part of His great divine council, in the mountain of God (eden) but one in particular, and other of those angelic beings rebelled, dragged the humans into it.
God promised that as the devil had deceived the woman that a seed of the woman would eventually destroy that rebel. A man.
the bible is the long trail of cat and mouse struggle to achieve that promise, against interference gen6 incursion, corruption of man, flood, more rebellion at babel, a separate nation formed where God focusses on just Abrahams offspring while the other nations are scattered for a time, Moses promises (deut18:18) that one of their own (therefore a jewish man) would be that promised great leader and deliverer. Eventually through much apostasy and rebellion and apathy the "seed war" concludes in Jesus, the promised seed of Eve. The jews are incited by those rebel spirits to kill that Jesus, whereby Gods plan is fulfilled, the blood price paid by the second (this time obedient) Adam, Jesus, who becomes the passover lamb of God. So God saves us by providing the covering blood all who call on the name (authority) are saved to life in the age to come!
That lamb, a man, is raised and given great honour and glory (like joseph had been in egypt, a type) and will be the king of the world to come, messiah as promised to the revived nation of Israel, and world ruler for another 1000yrs until all is completed and God is again Alpha and Omega, as you pointed out !!
Us, the ekklasia, is a period of grace where the nations can come back into the promise (from the babel event... promise to Abraham) and we are "one NEW man, a NEW CREATION and are NEITHER JEW NOR GENTILE and we are to rule with Jesus, the raised and glorified one, over this coming age of this world, glorified as he is now, 1thes4.
At end of the future age Jesus hands the Lordship back to God most high, mission accomplished 1Cor15:28. So that God can again be all in all, rebellion crushed, restoration of Gods original plan, except a slight difference. Due to the rebellion coming from the first family "bene elohim" ( sons of God) we have instead of just being another group of His children, we are raised in His champion, Jesus, "so much HIGHER than angels" (authority talk).
Do you see the whole bible condensed in this? No need for Jesus to be God, he is Gods lamb of passover covering. The power is in the blood. Gods provision. God saves by providing the covering. Jesus saves by being the covering. We save ourselves by responding to that covering, by our free will through believing (faith).
theres the shovel of the spirit!
@@ken440 IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THEY ONLY WANT TO BELIEVE PART OF THE TRUTH AND LEAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT OUT.OF THE HOLY TRINITY. SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T BELIEVE IN THE HOLY TRINITY OF GOD. AND THEY WANT TO TWIST THE SCRIPTURES ACORDING TO WHAT THEY THINK IT MEANS. AND TWISTING SCRIPTURES. IN THE HOLY TRINITY OF GOD. IS THE FATHER, SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THREE PERSONS . ALL THREE MAKE UP ONE TRUE GOD. ONE GOD ONLY. YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BE BLESSED NOW IN JESUS NAME. BE BLESSED NOW.
Luke 1:30-35❤
“And who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?”
1 John 5:5 ASV
Read Isaiah God have mercy on u
Whatever is said in Isaiah doesn't get over the argument put forward in this video. You have to solve the problem of why Jesus only half died, and then you can go to Isaiah.
45:7?
lol Jesus prayed to himself and pleaded with himself according to u
ISA.53. The entire Chapter is a Prophecy of the COMING MESSIAH.
Then read this😂
Ephesians 4:6
One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
Jesus ia a MAN. So simple fact.
...the last(second) Adam. ....And Adam means MAN/human. Very simple. Adam does NOT mean God. ...and does not mean God and man. It means only MAN/human.
I hope you come back to the truth He is the only way to Heaven. John 14:6 He is el Gabor, mighty God in Isaiah 9:6. In Isaiah 44 God says I am the beginning and the end in Rev 22 Jesus says the same thing. And that before Abraham was I AM. Gotta watch out for people who don’t understand the trinity. They’ll lead you astray their called JW’s or Mormons all 3 beings make up God
Unless you can adequately explain the problem posed in this video, then there's little point rattling off Trinitarian stock verses. They can be easily understood without them proving a Triune God. What remains though, is that official Trinitarian definitions imply that only half of Jesus died. Which is clearly unbiblical.
The person in the video, I would say, understands the Trinity very well, and that's why he doesn't believe in it. And he's not a JW or a Mormon either.
@@eddieyoung2104 wouldn’t know didn’t watch the video. All I know is it’s false, I’ll pray for you tho.
@@TheLionofJudah3183 Well, I'm always appreciative of people's prayers, as long as it's according to God's will. I'll do the same for you.
@@eddieyoung2104 your humbleness touched me, and it sounds like you have met the truth the Alpha and the Omega. I can use humbling and prayers there’s room for more as we try and follow the Master, Thank you for your prayers. I prayed for you as well
You know the king of babylon was also called "el Gibbor?" and it is also used for warriors where it is translated "mighty ones."
there is no other GOD besides YAH/YHWH ALONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not science not evolution not allah not budda not ganesh/krishna en 1000% NOT the human christ yahsua/christ !!!
Jesus is God
The beauty and depth of the scriptures and God's plan of salvation open up wonderfully when you finally understand that Jesus is the Son of God, and not God. I graduated from Roman Catholic grade school and high school and the trinity was almost painful when I was young trying to sort the trinity out...well it can't, it's mans fabrification.
This is just one in so many potholes that you can lean into when you call Jesus let alone the Holy Spirit god, this testament contradicts the bible on so many different occasions irredeemably that it’s a wonder how people reconcile, like for instance the definition that all three persons in the trinity are equal but the NT quotes Jesus saying “the father is greater than I, the father is greater than all”, these two thing contradict explicitly and there’s hundreds of these contradictory beliefs
You're all confusing the man Jesus as a person and the Spirit of God as ANOTHER PERSON. The very first commandment is to HEAR! that He is ONE Dt.6:4 AND Mark 12:29. If He's only one, then He can't be two persons or a "trinity."
You site verses that show his humanity because he was 100% a man. But what about the verses that show He is God? "Before Abraham was, I AM!" or "Philip, hast thou been so long time with me and not known me? When thou seest me, thou seest the Father" In Rev. He's the "Almighty" In Isaiah He is the Everlasting FATHER! etc. I've studied this for 40 years.
FATHER IS ALREADY A PERSON EVEN BEFORE THE INCARNATION...
Hebrews 1:3
New King James Version
3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of➡️ His person,⬅️ and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
Those who deny the premise and conclusion, are those who are experiencing severe cognitive dissonance as a result of the premise and conclusion.
Not really, see my comment.
They deny it because of 1600 years of Trinitarian violence and torture against those who refuse to believe their man-made doctrine, which "Churchianity" of today still teaches, but their numbers are declining.
@@CC_70 There are well over a thousand comments here. Nobody in their right mind would go looking for your post. It's best you reproduce it within your reply.
The thing that convinced me that Jesus is God..."doubting" Thomas verified that Jesus is my Lord and my God.
Cheers
I understand how you could come to that conclusion from John 20:28, but just a few verses earlier, Jesus said he had a God (John 20:17) which was the same God as our God (John 20:17). So, in your view, God (Jesus) has a God (the Father). Do you see how that creates two Gods?
@@biblicalunitarian John 1:1...Word was God. John 1:3 Jesus created everything.
John 1:14...and the Word/God became flesh.
Jesus is the Mighty God and Everlasting Father, Prince of peace in Isaiah 9:6
Everlasting means eternal and eternal means without beginning and without end
There is only ONE God...Jesus is the name above all names even of those in heaven.
@@Diana-xm1dm Thank you. That ended the whole conversation. I am a philosopher and I totally agree with you. Jesus is God both biblically and philosophically, Jesus is God no matter how one looks.
@@coldstar5600 All glory and praise to our Lord and our God Jesus Christ.
God Bless
1) Is Father a person?
2) How many witnesses is God?
3) Does Son already exist as a person in the Old Testament, even before his birth from Mary?
4) When Son died on the cross and gave out his spirit: whose spirit is that? Is it the Father? Did Father leave the Son?
John 14:28
“The Father is greater than I.”
