1. John 10:30 The Father and I are one.
I hope you will understand this with this illustration:
Old testament
Coke (original) = Father, King of Israel
Coke Diet = Word, Holy one, redeemer, Lord of David, Christ
15. Isaiah 44:6 Thus says
the LORD, the King of Israel and
his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: “I am the first and I am the last; besides me there is no god.
Thus said, Coke and coke Diet,....I am he first and the last...Besides me there is no other softdrinks.
2. Philippians 2:5-6 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to.
Though he was (coke diet) softdrinks, he did not think of equality with (Coke original) softdrinks as something to cling to...
8. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
In the beginning was the coke diet..and coke diet was with coke (original) and coke Diet was Softdrinks..
9. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
and coke diet became chicken......
That's the simple story...I illustrate it as coke and coke diet to simplify...and I hope it will be easily understood.
when coke diet became chicken...its no longer softdrinks...but meat...
Likewise when the Word became flesh it is no longer God but Flesh...
The once immortal became mortal to taste death...
Heb 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that
he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
Heb 2:16 For verily
he took not on him the
nature of angels; but
he took on him the seed of Abraham.
He took not the nature of angels
He has one nature...the seed of Abraham...Human Flesh
Now, Before the chicken was cooked...it is marinated with Coke...So there still a taste of coke in the chicken...
LIKEWISE the child grew in wisdom and in spirit..and at baptism of Jesus he was anointed with Holy spirit and power.
5. Colossians 2:9-10 For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily. and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.
Act 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
That was the story before they see the man Jesus...
4. John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known...
When did the Son see Father??? obviously when coke diet was still softdrinks...
When the Word was with God...obviously He seen God (Father)...
How did the Son made known the Father??
Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
10. 1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ.
He is the true God and eternal life.
Who is the true God??? same writer..John 17:3 compare 1John 5:20...again no need to explain...just read it.
1. John 10:30 The Father and I are one.[
3. John 17:21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that
they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
Father..Son..and They also..may be on in us....
If you will use the above verse as proof that Jesus is God...then consider us also as God.
But Just reading it...will give you understanding
13. John 8:22-24 This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?” But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 24 I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins.”
12. John 8:57-58 The people said, “You aren’t even fifty years old. How can you say you have seen Abraham?” Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I Am!”
Joh 8:26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
Joh 8:29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
6. John 10:33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”
7. John 5:18 This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
the above three lists (1, 12, 6 and 7) can be summarized as:
Remember the coke diet before it became chicken....Though he was (coke diet) softdrinks, he did not think of equality with (Coke original) softdrinks as something to cling to...
The Word Became Flesh...The Word was equal with God (father), but not the Father.
Because he said I am the Son Of God...
Joh 10:36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest;
because I said, I am the Son of God?
The Rest can be answered by this..
Regarding Lord and Saviour...God (Father) has made the man Jesus to be the following....
Act 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that
God hath
made that
same Jesus, whom ye have crucified,
both Lord and Christ.
Act 5:31 Him hath
God exalted with his right hand
to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
11. Romans 10:13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
21. Acts 7:59-60 And as they were stoning Stephen, he called out, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” And falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
14. John 13:18-19 “I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture: ‘He who shared my bread has turned against me.’ “I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am who I am.
24. John 20:27-28 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
Regarding worship....God allwoed the worship of the man Jesus.
Heb 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the
firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And
let all the angels of God worship him.
19. Matthew 2:1-2 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”
20. Matthew 28:8-9 So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.
The First and the Last...
1Ti 6:16
Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
1Ti 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
We have to know God even the Father..
The Father is immortal..never die...He is invisble...He is only..wise God...
18. Revelation 1:17-18 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, “Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one.
I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.
17. Revelation 2:8 “And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write: ‘The words of the first and the last, who died and came to life.
The Word was in the Beginning with God...became Flesh and Died..now alive..and will be the Judge... therefore the first and the Last....
But there is one true, immortal and invisible God..even the Father...
NOW YOU CAN FULLY UNDERSTAND THIS VERSE:
16. 1 Corinthians 8:6 Yet for us
there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one
Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.
23. 2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
