Colossians 1:15
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Jesus is the image of God.
An image is a representation of a person or thing. An image is never the person or thing itself. When the writers of the New Testament called Jesus the image of God, they were in essence saying that Jesus is not God, he is the representative of God. This is a very simple concept and yet is often overlooked.
An image is a representation, but when an image is worshiped as God, it becomes an idol. When Christians make Jesus God, they are worshiping an image of God in place of God. Many Christians today are changing Jesus from a representative into an idol.
Jesus is the image of God because he has received the fullness of God's nature. He speaks the words that God gives him and does the works that God shows him. He has been given the power of God to rule, to judge, and to forgive. He is the one who shows us who the true, living God is. He himself is not God but should be honored as our Lord and Savior to the glory of God.
Just as Pharaoh gave authority to Joseph, God gave authority to Jesus over all things.
Genesis 41:40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.
Put your trust in Jesus Christ, accept his sacrifice, and turn from your sins. He will give you life. Only by him can we know God, his Father and ours.
Jesus is God. We should worship Him too.
(Colossians 2:9 NIV) For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form,
(Hebrews 1:1-3 NIV) In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, {2} but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. {3} The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
Don't you see that the Son was appointed heir because he isn't God. God cannot be heir to what He already owns. God speaks to us by His son. When God spoke through the prophets, do you assume that they too were God?
Jesus is a representation of God and a representation is not the person or thing itself but represents that person or thing. He sat down at the right hand of God. These verses destroy the idea of a three part God.
The trinity has been forced upon Christianity for hundreds of years but that doesn't mean it's true. The Bible reveals the truth.
No, Jesus is God. Read the whole New Testament and don't go by your brainwashing you received growing up.
If you were willing to receive the word with all readiness of mind you would see what I see. It's not about brainwashing, it's about searching for truth. This is what has been revealed to me.
