Oh, and also, even if he is the 'son of God' that does not make him God. If a person is a 'son' they cannot also be their 'father'. And if you are going to say that God is triune, or three persons in one: 'God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit' then you are saying that God has Multiple Personality Disorder!

I also believe that Christ was God. Though he was called son of God.

JesusFreak,
God doesn't want people to follow Him if they cannot believe in Him by faith alone.
If He wanted people to follow Him by proof of His existence, then He would certainly manifest Himself so all could see His Magnificence and Glory.

Jesus is God. " In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was with God and the Word was God." " And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us." John 1:1 and 1:14. The old testament says that another name for the Messiah is Immanuel which means, " God among us" Jesus said He was God. John 10:30 and 8:58. Jesus was worshipped like God. He forgave sins like God. He read peoples hearts and thoughts like God. He controlled the wind and waves like God. He came from heaven like God. And He conquered death like God. Jesus Christ is God.

But this is one of the miracles of God & Jesus. It is not supposed to be something that everyone can be - only the trinity. Also, I think there are things about God that are beyond human comprehension. Even in the secular world are things that we cannot truly comprehend - like infinite numbers. We know what they are, and how they go, but cannot really fathom infinity. I think the same goes for the essence of God. How can we fully comprehend a being that has always been there and always will be? So the trinity I just take as one more aspect of God that must rely on faith for.

It is like our brains. We actually have two brains. The left and right hemispheres. They both have separate functions but they comprise ONE MIND. This is like the Trinity. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have separate functions but they operate as ONE GOD. Those who cannot believe that God can be three in one are looking at it from a carnal viewpoint. They assume that since they themselves cannot be in more than one place at a time or be more than one thing at a time they assume God cannot either. God can do or be anything. His power and knowledge are without boundries.

Your prayer reached no further than the ceiling. I will not shut up. You should stop defending sin and start trying to win sinners to Christ.
