RE: The Lie of Jesus Christ and how his real name was Yeshua HaMashiach

in #philosophy8 years ago (edited)

From John 20:24-29

Now Thomas, called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.” And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, “Peace to you!” Then He said to Thomas, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.” And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

But the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘You will see the Spirit come down and rest on a man. He is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ I have seen this happen. I saw the Spirit come down from heaven like a dove and rest on this man. So this is what I tell people: ‘He is the Son of God.’”
  • John 6:38 - I came down from heaven to do what God wants, not what I want.

I do have a bunch of other New Testament references that illustrate what I'm saying, and I don't think I have a compiled list of all the things I've found anywhere. Some of them need a bit of explaining Jewish culture at the time to grasp so I'll skip them for now. I also have a bunch of Old Testament references that illustrate why it doesn't make sense that the G-d of the Jews would actually become a man.

I don't disagree with any of those verses (obviously). The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are One God in three persons.

John 14:8-10

Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.” Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time, and still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on My own. Instead, it is the Father dwelling in Me, carrying out His work.

And just before Jesus ascended to heaven, he gave his disciples this Great Commission: (Matthew 28:16-20)

Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.
And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name [singular] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

hmm. I have read that free masons and other esoteric orders have studied the old testament as mysticism.....I do not believe everything written in the bible is completely matter of fact..but rather metaphors and things of this like.

The best thing to do is throw out all such esoteric orders and just master the original inspired Scriptures.

yes, jesus proved to him that he was god.....as everything is god. Those who deny the truth of this deny the truth of god. it is simple.

That would be pantheism. There is a strong distinction between the Creator and His creation. Heaven and earth will pass away. God won't.
