You do know that the title "Son of God" is just a relational metaphor for the prophet described in Deuteronomy 18:18, a Jewish man like Moses who would come to 'reveal all of Gods commands' indicating a rank and intimacy with God above that of other prophets called "servants of God"Are the Jews part of this discussion, or Hindus, or Adventists?
Since you brought it up, the Jews will recognize God's Son when He returns to stop their complete slaughter in WW3.
you got that from the NT? I don't remember that"The son of man" is how Jesus often spoke of himself.
Jesus did call himself son of man 81 times but also called himself the son of God here"The son of man" is how Jesus often spoke of himself.
The Identity of the Son of ManAnd in fact Jesus himself confirms this for us, explicitly associating himself with Daniel's “son of man” (Matt. 26:63–64). This is in fact his favorite self-designation, recurring some eighty times in the Gospels, and becomes on his lips a Messianic title.you got that from the NT? I don't remember that
and only 3 Jews ( Practicing ) out of 100 believe in an afterlife ( Heaven ) regardless of if you achieve all the MitzvahsYou silly twit, Jews don't believe God has a son either.
Well, no I didn't leave it out...You left out raising Christ from the dead for all to see for 40 days. I'm with that guy...
I believe in this guy's Son:You do know that the title "Son of God" is just a relational metaphor for the prophet described in Deuteronomy 18:18, a Jewish man like Moses who would come to 'reveal all of Gods commands' indicating a rank and intimacy with God above that of other prophets called "servants of God"
Don't you?
Well, no I didn't leave it out...
In all probability, it didn't happen. In fact, in the earliest editions of the first Gospel written, Mark makes no mention of Jesus rising from the dead in earlier editions. It just ends with the empty tomb.
So here are several plausible explanations.
1) Jesus's followers stole his body and spread rumors he came back from the dead.
2) Jesus didn't actually die on the cross (The Romans took him down after a day, while Crucifixion was usually a process that lasted days.
3) Jesus never really existed; his story was made up by later writers working off the teachings of Greek philosophy mixed with Judaic religion.
I believe in this guy's Son:
Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Jesus is not a metaphor...
1. A Roman guard varied in number. It wasn't one sleepy guard. The Roman soldiers, <plural, went to the Temple to give them the news and the Priests tried to bribe them to keep quiet. If a Roman soldier was found sleeping on the job, they would wake him so he could see the dagger shoved in their stomach for dereliction of duty.Well, no I didn't leave it out...

If you have seen me you have seen the Father....Neither is Jesus God. Son of God was a relational metaphor for the awaited messiah. Simple.
In visions when God says "Son of man", etc., etc., he was just saying "hey human" etc., etc.,....
"God is not a man, so he does not lie; he is not human, so he does not change his mind."
Translation: If you have understood me you have understood the Father..If you have seen me you have seen the Father....
So Jesus didn't have the IQ to know the difference between seen and understood? As long as you think Jesus is a metaphor, so your salvation will be also...Translation: If you have understood me you have understood the Father..
lol.....Sing amazing grace and then get back to me....You know, was blind but now I see.....So Jesus didn't have the IQ to know the difference between seen and understood? As long as you think Jesus is a metaphor, so your salvation will be also...

2.He was tortured so badly, He didn't resemble a human when they nailed Him to the cross. He only lasted 6 hrs.
3. Thallus determined that the darkness that happened while Christ was on the cross, was an eclipse. Africanus, points out that such an explanation is unreasonable because Passover always occurs at the time of the full moon, and the full moon cannot come between the earth and the sun. So the explanation, according to Africanus, must be that the darkness was miraculous.
Flavius Josephus mentions Jesus twice in his works.
I will put my knowledge of Islam and Islamization up against yours any day, any time of the day. Wanna take my Islamization Quiz ?Your ignorance is appalling.
Except that there is no God in Islam. It's a scam. A hoax. Designed to force people to adhere to it, because nobody wants to go up against God, right ?No. Allah is the Arabic word for God.
There are millions of Arabic speaking Christians. Their word for God is Allah because they speak Arabic.
Do French speaking Christians worship a “different” God because their word for god is “dieu”? Of course not
The golden rule is the farthest thing on earth from Islam. Islam is rape, mass murder, torture, misogyny, wife-beating, pedophilia, slavery.Charity and the golden rule are also essential to Judaism and Islam.
Is there a doctor in the house ? I mean really.Close but I think the Romans win that contest hands down.
God diddled a virgin to father himself and become a fully human little baby boy only to abolish his own laws, perform some magic tricks, including turning himself into a matzo so that believers can sin with impunity for life as long as they celebrate his death as a perfect human sacrifice and then worship and eat him for spiritual life because he loved the Roman world so much of course!
Who wouldn't love a maudlin story about a god like that who became a widdle baby. Sniff sniff.
That Jesus, whoever he really was, must have really pissed off the Romans so much that they abolished all other religions and replaced them with just one dedicated to defying the Laws of the Hebrew God, persecuting "unbelievers", and celebrating the torture and death of Jesus, all for a nominal service charge (10% of your income for life, weekly spare change, your soul, your sanity, your freedom, and all of your children)
Judging by the goofy things the "believers" of over 30,000 denominations still have the audacity to claim in this day and age, apparently, this con, that began in 325CE, still works like a charm!
Woo hooo! Jesus, an innocent man, died a horrible death, (instead of me) so I can sin and be an asshole for life with impunity! Yay! Praise God! Thank you Jesus! Hallelujah! Can I get an Amen?
