"Why ask? Why not just accept? "\n\nThat was the first response to this question.\n\nSo now I must ask, why cant God just command someone to exist, and then they exist. No questions asked.\n\nGod's phenomena are many times backed by science. but many times they are not. Take the case of Adam, technically speaking it is not "scientifically" possible. So why does Jesus HAVE to have a father.\n\nIf God is all powerful, all knowing, all wise, all merciful, can he then not just tell Mary, "You shall have a son as I have made it so"?\n\nCan God just tell his creation to BE, with no questions asked?\n\nYes, God can. It is shown through Jesus, he is a miracle child. A child without a father. \n\n\nAnyone who questions me, I ask, calmly, to please give me CREDIBLE evidence that Jesus HIMSELF stated "I am the son of my creator" \n\nBy credible I mean a source which has NOT been changed from its original setting.

According to the Bible, Jesus is God, and has always been God.  But in order to accomplish the salvation of man, He laid aside that right, and took a position that was less then God - that of His Son - and humbled Himself to God as His Father being obedient even to the point of dying on the cross.  Because of that, He was raised from the dead and returned to the position of full Godship with His Father.  (Read Phillippians 2: 6-11).\n\nIn the Jewish culture that Jesus lived, to term translated "the son of..." was a legal term that referred to someone who had all the rights and power of their father.  To refer to Jesus as "the son of God" meant the He had all the rights and power of God.  It is differrent that what we think of when we hear the English term "the son of...".  This is why during Jesus' trial before the Jews, when He referred to Himself as "the son of God", the high priest torn his garment and called him a blasphemer, because He made Himself equal with God.\n\nYou may debate all day whether or not Jesus was divine, but there is no room for debate over whether the Bible SAYS Jesus was divine.  There are hundreds of refers to His divinity in it.\n\nSo the answer is: Jesus, by claiming to be the Son of God, was claiming to be God.  They are the same thing.

First of all, luminary, the Catholic Church **NEVER** doubted Christ Is the Son Of God. The Catholic Church is the oldest & largest denomination of the Christian faith.\n\n I think you must be mixing Catholicism up with either Judaism or Islam.\n\n Moreover, the Catholic Church--as does Christianity as a whole--teaches that we are all God's kids. Judaism also teaches this, as do most religions(with the exception of Islam). That is why we call God 'Father.'\n\n Christ Is the Son Of God, because He Is God's Only Begotten Son. Christ Pre-existed His Incarnation, & is the Second Person Of the Trinity(3 Persons in the One Godhead).\n\n Yes, I as a Catholic, believe Jesus Christ Is the Son Of God, & its not just because of His Numerous Healings. It is because Of His Virgin Birth, His Bodily Resurrection From the Dead, & because of the fact that Our Father Himself Declared Christ His Son, first during His Baptism by St. John in the wilderness(its in all 4 Gospels), & at the Transfiguration(in the Synoptic Gospels).

Well if u take Jesus as prophet then there will be  no confusion...if he was God why havn't  he saved himself, If he was son of God,why didn't God  save him,and thre is no point in getting killed for other's sins.simply Jesus(pbuh) was  a prophet , and we muslims are at peace by believing this

Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God, not just a prophet.  There are many prophets in Christianity and true Christians ARE respectful to Muhammad as they would be to any Christian prophet.  They simply wouldn't hold him in as high esteem as the Son of God.

According to the Bible, Jesus is the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son of God. We are God's children thrugh adoption, as it were, not by being begotten.

lemme get this straight... he (Jesus) said that he is a prophet, and 'peter' said he is the son of god... so jesus doesn't admit it to himself? \n\nstarr ww agrees that jesus was a prophet, but became a saviour when he died which mean who made him what he is? DID HE? OR DID YOU? unless he screams from the cross "I'm doing this for you people, you better be thanking me and make me your god or something, cos this thing hurts like a b****"

I'll keep this short and sweet. Because it's the truth,you can read this in any bible. But first if you don't understand the bible get someone to help you understand it. People that don't believe this then they know nothing when it comes to the bible. I have three different bibles in my home and they all say the same thing Jesus is God's son....

Jesus is the son of God. He is the Savior, altho many do not yet realize this yet. But...soon they will...The Bible predicts that this Son Of God, Jesus, will come back to this earth, and we will see that He is our Savior, God's son, and we will bow down to him ( Jesus died on the cross for both the believers and the non believers)\nHe's not "just some guy," as some believe, but it's up to each of us to prove that fact to ourselves. If we don't, we may have to learn it the hard way...at His 2nd coming...Better to get with it, and prove it A.S.A.P.

I agree with you completely. I am a christian, but I do not believe in the trinity theory. and there are ALLOT of references like this one that points toward the fact that they are not the same. A few of them are: after Jesus got baptized, God said to him, "this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased." would he talk to himself? also when the people asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, Jesus taught them to pray to God, not to himself. If he was God why wouldn't he have the people pray to him? yet another, Jesus on the cross said "My God, why have you forsaken me?" would God not only talk to himself, but also forsake himself? A final one... the bible says that the only unforgivable sin is blaspheming the holy spirit (Mark 3:29). If they were all the same, then blaspheming any of them would be unforgivable. They are very separate beings, and not the same.

Historically, yes Jesus spread a message of love and peace, whether it was of god's love is debatable (I know I probably pissing of a lot of Christians right now, but I really don't care). Jesus never wanted to be "the son of god" or "a messiah" all he wanted to do was spread love, peace and goodness to those he knew; so what happened to him? He was crucified. What the hell kind of message is that? If I were a Christian I would be ashamed to believe in a religion where being peaceful and spreading love ended in death; and if Jesus could actually see how Christians have misinterpreted his intentions than I'm sure he would hang his head in shame as well.

NOPE HE IS NOT THE SON OF MAN.. JESUS WAS JUST A JEWISH GUY THAT RAN AROUND DOING TORAH TEACHINGS AND WAS GREATLY MISUNDERSTOOD.

Jesus even said MULTIPLE times that he is the SON. and to worship his Father. \n\nAS well as saying that he was SENT by the Father. \n\nhow could he be a medium or a spritist, when he was only working for the one whom sent him?\n\nJesus is not God (please not the capital) but he is a god (note: no capital). many worship him, yes. but the question should be... why dont they worship God? when clearly Jesus did?\n\n...*shrug* and thats my 2 cents

Jesus is NOT God.\n\nJesus proclaimed to be The Son of God.\nJesus is The King of Kings. Lord of Lords.\nJesus Christ is the only way to The Father Jehova.\nJesus Christ is the 2nd in The trinty, not the First.\nThe Holy spirit is the 3rd in the Trinity, not the 2nd.\n\nGod The Father..Jesus The Son. The Holy Spirit in the Trinity, just in that order.\n\nIf Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, He would be called "God in the flesh". Jesus is called"The Son of God"., for a reason. Because He is.\n\nJehovah God said what?  I will have NO other God's before me.\nDon't put Jesus Christ before Jehovah God.\n\nWe are Christians and ONE in Christ through the Blood. \n\nJehovah, Jesus, The Holy Spirit are ONE through the power of God.\n\nWe are Christians _Christ like.\nWe are not Jehovians, Jehova-likes.\nIf we were Jehovah like, we would be "equals to God.\n\nWe are God's children, not God's equals.
