He Was More than Just a Man

Give me scripture to support your statement and I'll believe. The scripture is all that I will believe or accept! I'm teachable just show me.

Would You go so far as to say that Jesus was NOT God?

It's not what I would say but what does the scripture say? I will declare him to be whatever the scripture calls him. I can do nothing else! I know this, he's "one of a kind". The word says that he is the "only begotten son"!

Do you have a copy of the tract/chart available from the UPC Publishing House called "Wheel of Prophecy"? It shows scriptures showing that Jehovah is Shepherd, King, Creator, etc and that He is God and then it shows that Jesus is Shepherd, King, Creator, etc. and that He is God. That might help.

Thank You,

Hi Nina,

In a nutshell its living your life without sin. Although we have been told by men this is not possible the scriptures give a much different story.

There is a great amount of detail to it but if I only were allowed one scripture to describe what I mean it would be this:

12: Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God Col. 4:12

Thats it! Be perfect and complete in THE WILL OF GOD.

One can live this and believe that Yeshua is a man annointed by God. That is if he ALSO believes Yeshua IS GOD.

I believe it is a sin to disbelieve in the deity of Yeshua. It may take some time for the message of it to sink in but if one has the Spirit in them I think this will eventually be revealed.

So its important to believe he was/is a man anointed by God. Also that he IS God.

By Gods grace Im not aware of any sin in my life. But one must not think thats something big. No thats just whats supposed to be normal to a disciple of Yeshua.

The problem is mens traditions have made it seem as if SIN were the victor over the Saint. As if someone who was overcoming it were some super spiritual person. Rather the Apostolic writings make as if its NORMAL for the Saint to walk in the Spirit.

5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts. Gal. 5:22-24
