what a great conversation. it's been such a long time since I've seen such a respectable man... my heart broke when he said "im only going to one place, the hell one" . may God bless this man and I will pray that he can welcome Jesus in his life so he can soften he's already softened heart even more because he's already halfway there.

God did stick to the moral code He gave us, by sacrificing His son, and not requiring Abraham to. God has fulfilled HIS CODE, and proved He could be perfect AND kill His son.

God killed his Son? This question has been asked. Did God kill Jesus ? No. He gave Jesus...

@johnmrvin6596 Год назад

God didn't fulfill anything that flesh is capable of. Abraham is a man so he thought like a man. But what is from God is God, jesus died because the people of this world are evil, otherwise he wouldn't need to die. He did it for his sheep who hears his voice, if you being evil don't want to have your son killed, how much more God? But he allowed it to happen because everyone has free will.

"I feel that he (God) should live under the same moral code he expects of us" Funnily enough that's the same argument children make to their parents - but we all understand, as adults - that's not correct. There is a different standard for parent and child. He is definitionally good, his standards and reasons are beyond our understanding because we're children - and he the parent. What you need to do is just understand that definitionally he's correct and trust.

@garysanders6091 Год назад

Doesn't help take his argument that God isn't just seriously when he smirks like a child when he says its not fair.

If someone asked me to sacrifice my son, I would have said no, concluded that was a bad God and never obeyed. Why God test Abraham on his moral? Either do the wrong or losing trust. It was unfair and unjust. I still dont get my answers from this conversation.

@bostongirl3507 3 месяца назад

God knew Abraham's heart and knew he would do anything God asked him to do. Abraham knew If he had to give his son to God, that God would take care of Isiac, who was given to Abraham from God to begin with! When God lets us go through difficult times and difficult decisions, it teaches us to lean into God and rely on Him and strengthens our faith in God.

John 1:14 The Correct Meaning. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Notice how John 1:14 DID NOT SAY: And (GOD) became flesh and dwelt among us, as would be the case if John was teaching Jesus is GOD who became flesh, as MOST wrongly believe Jesus is GOD who became flesh. John 1:14 continues saying: And we beheld His glory, a glory as of an only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. Notice Jesus is: an only begotten from the Father, meaning Jesus was BORN and Fathered from His GOD and Father, proving Jesus is NOT the SAME GOD He was Begotten from. To be Begotten means to come into existence, and NOT always existing as most wrongly believe. John 1:14 is simply saying the (word) of Yahweh became a living, walking, physical MAN, called The Word (OF) God in Revelation 19:13 and Yahweh's Begotten Son. But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, HAVING BEEN BORN OF A WOMEN, having been born under the Law, Galatians 4:4. Notice how Jesus first came into existence by HAVING BEEN BORN OF A WOMEN? Please notice how we read in Acts 2:22 saying Jesus was a MAN, and nothing about Jesus being GOD, or an Angel, or some kind of Spirit being BEFORE He was BORN: Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, (A MAN) having been set forth by God to you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by Him in your the midst, as you yourselves know. Notice in John 8:40 how Jesus Himself confirms He is (A MAN) and says nothing about Himself being GOD, or an Angel, or some kind of Spirit being BEFORE He was BORN: But now you seek to kill Me, (A MAN) who has spoken to you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. Romans 1: 1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God, 2 which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures, 3 concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, 4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, 5 through whom we received grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name's sake; 6 among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ; Notice how Paul tells us that Jesus: was BORN of the seed of David according to the flesh, who was declared to be the Son of God, in line with what Jesus tells us in John 10:36 saying I am the Son of GOD. NOT GOD. Notice how we do NOT read Paul saying Jesus PRE-EXISTED his flesh before David? But instead we read Paul saying Jesus comes into existence by the seed of David according to the flesh, in line with John 1:14 saying the word of GOD became FLESH, as the SON of MAN Jesus. NOWHERE is it written that Jesus was already alive with GOD in heaven and was transformed into the BABY Jesus, unless you are reading the many false modern Bible translations. If Jesus was WITH GOD before He was BORN as a MAN, then WHAT WAS HE? Jesus did speak figuratively by saying He came down from Heaven and simply meant He came from GOD as GOD is in heaven, just as Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:9 saying: Therefore pray you like this: 'Our Father (IN THE HEAVENS), hallowed be Your name! Just as James 1:17 tells us: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. Jesus is truly a gift from GOD, when we take up our cross and deny ourselves by believing and following the true Jesus, we will be saved: For God so loved the world that (HE GAVE) the only begotten Son, so that everyone believing in Him should not perish, but should have eternal life. John 3:16. BLB. Notice how we read in John 3:16, how GOD GAVE us His only begotten Son, and yet most have been deceived into believing in a false Gospel teaching GOD came and gave Himself and madly believe died on the cross, when the truth is GOD cannot DIE, when it was GOD's SON who died, NOT GOD, which makes a false Christ.

@@coolgoku810 John 17:5 Correct Understanding. And now glorify Me, You Father, with Yourself, with the glory that I had with You before the world existed. BLB. As normal, most of Christianity are deceived and confused with understanding the truth of what Jesus actually meant here in John 17:15 by believing Jesus was teaching He EXISTED WITH GOD before the world existed. Notice how Jesus did NOT say: And now glorify Me, You Father, with Yourself, with the glory that I had with You (WHEN I WAS ALREADY WITH YOU) before the world existed. The obvious facts are: 1. If Jesus is GOD who is WITH GOD as most believe, that equals TWO GODS side by side contradicting the word of GOD who says: I am Yahweh, and there is none else. Besides me, there is no God. WEB. 2. if Jesus is the SAME One True GOD, as most believe, then Jesus could NOT be with His GOD if they are the SAME One True GOD. 3. Jesus said in John 20:17 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.'" if Jesus is the SAME One True GOD, as most believe, then how is it possible that Jesus Father is His GOD, when the One True GOD does NOT have a One True GOD above Him? The Correct Meaning: The simple truth is that Jesus is NOT GOD, and Jesus was NOT WITH His GOD before He was born as a MAN in John 1:14. John 17:5: And now glorify Me, You Father, with Yourself, Jesus was praying to His Father that many of the old Testament Bible prophecies would now be fulfilled, as He was near the end of His ministry and was about to be crucified and raised from the dead to be with His Father (in glory) as our High Priest, Advocate and Mediator, where GODS plan would continue since before the world begun, and the Son would receive (glory), which He worked in Christ, having raised Him out from the dead, and having set Him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, Ephesians 1:20 with the glory that I had with You before the world existed. Jesus is simply referring to Himself as the (glory) He had with His Father before He physically existed, and that (glory) was in GODS mind and purpose as the highest in precedence to be the promised Messiah in: the determinate plan and foreknowledge of God, Acts 2:23, He was known before the foundation of the world 1 Peter 1:20. Notice Jesus is for-known in GODS plan, and NOT physically existing. But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come forth for Me One to be ruler over Israel, whose origins are of old, from the days of eternity. Micah 5:2 Conclusion: Jesus prayed to receive the (Glory) GOD promised before the world existed, before Jesus physically existed, that He would now be WITH His Father and GOD: But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.” Luke 22:69, fulfilling Bible prophecies, and to continue with fulfilling the Greatest Bible Prophecy yet to come when Jesus will return as the Prince of Peace with His Father as ONE, as a Father and SON. So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become a high priest, but the One having said to Him: "You are My Son, today I have begotten You." Hebrews 5:5 But this One, having offered one sacrifice for sins in perpetuity, sat down at the right hand of God, Hebrews 10:12 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. Mark 16:19 Therefore indeed the Lord Jesus, after speaking to them, was taken up into the heaven and sat at the right hand of God. Mark 16:19

The Jews answered Him, "We do not stone You for a good work, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a man, make yourself God." Very sadly millions of Christians are very confused by believing Jesus is GOD, because the rebellious Jews said: because You, being a man, make yourself God." By believing what the rebellious Jews believed that Jesus was making Himself GOD, Christians today are believing the rebellious Jews understood and believed what Jesus taught. And yet, Jesus said that the rebellious Jews DID NOT BELIEVE His teachings, or understand, or believe who Jesus claimed to be. John 10: 6 Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them. John 10:1 - 6, This is why: Jesus answered, “I did tell you, but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify about me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. Simply notice how Jesus did NOT say to the Jews: Yes you are correct I am GOD, but instead Jesus RECTIFIED the Jews by saying: do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, 'You blaspheme,' because I said, 'I am Son of God'? John 10:36 When we believe and teach that Jesus is GOD - when He only ever taught that He was the SON of THE ONE TRUE GOD - we are no better then the Jews, who accused Jesus for something He never claimed, which they RIGHTLY CALLED BLASPHEMY, but wrongly accused Him for BLASPHEMY. ‘You are accusing Jesus of slander, because Jesus NEVER SAID HE WAS GOD, but INSTEAD ONLY EVER said He IS the SON of GOD. John 10:36.
