| May 7, 2021 at 21:23 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | I have recently been redirected to a page that says, more or less, that at Christianity SE we are not here to ask Questions and give Answers on the Truth-of-Christianity (We can't handle the truth) but (forgive my simplification) on Christianity-as-is. If this was the case, pure and simple, we would be all waisting our time. Cheers! | |
| May 7, 2021 at 19:21 | comment | added | Anne | @Miguel de Servet Yes I did see your comment to Mike Borden's answer. Nothing you have added here disproves anything in my answer, but I am not spoiling for a fight and so I will not respond further to you. | |
| May 7, 2021 at 2:45 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | First, you obviously haven’t looked at the comment that I have appended to @MikeBorden’s Answer. Second, the Resurrection of Jesus by God, the Father Almighty, proves that God approved of His Son by raising him from the dead, and appointing (Grk. horisthentos, participle from horizō) him Son-of-God-in-power. | |
| May 6, 2021 at 17:39 | comment | added | Anne | @Miguel de Servet Correct, that would have been blasphemy deserving of death IF the claim had been false (Lev. 24:16). But if it was true, then proof of that would be evidenced later by the Father honouring his Son by resurrecting him from the dead (Romans 1:2-4) which is the whole basis of the Christian faith and the Christian church. | |
| May 6, 2021 at 9:55 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | You write, "Jesus added that Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing Jesus’ day, that he existed before Abraham was born, and that he was, in himself, the I Am." For those statements relative to Abraham, and the general understanding of John 8:56-58, I give you the same advice that I have given to Mike Borden. As for "he was, in himself, the I Am", if Jesus, with that egô eimi, had truly equated himself with YHWH, then the ioudaioi would have been perfectly entitled to "pick up stones to throw at him" for what they perceived as a blasphemous claim. | |
