when?
in Matthew 8:2, Matthew 9:18, Matthew 14:33, Matthew 15:25, Matthew 20:20, Matthew 28:17, Mark 5:6, John 9:38 and John 20:28 Jesus received worship without rebuking the people worshiping Him and not resisting them bowing down to Him.
He is called "Lord" a term of reverent worship over and over and over and over.
you keep saying Jesus resisted being worshiped, Garee, but i know of no place ever that this is true. i know of many places where He certainly did not rebuke those who bowed before Him or spoke to Him recognizing Him as God-unseen being made manifest & seen, an attitude of worship.
can you point me to any passage at all where Jesus did what you say He did?
when did He ever tell anyone bowing before Him to get up and worship God only?
He didn't -- and that is one of many proofs that He is I AM THAT I AM manifest in the flesh, the invisible made visible.
Jesus's whole life, every action was a parable doing the will of the father using the things seen to give us the eternal vision .
Without parables in that way Jesus the prophet, apostle spoke not hiding the gospel meaning from those who has no desire to search it out. They would as it seem rather glory in the things seen (corruption)
He told them in many ways even hiding making himself invisible to walk through a crowd that did desire to glory in his corrupted flesh and blood. Which he said profits for nothing.
I would think each of the verses you offered would have to be looked at in context of faith, the unseen understanding .
I repeated God is not a man in any way shape of form .He is invisible without beginning of spirit life or end.. It is why he is called God and not man .
Jesus refused to be worshipped the temporal by that in which the eyes see. Again he is not a man and neither could he be. God has no beginning.
Any of the work that the Son of man performed is not attributed to His flesh .The father worked in the Son to both will and do His good pleasure. The work is always two fold they never worked apart from the will of the father.
When Jesus would rebuke it was accredited to the father or bless. Again the power is never attributed to what they eyes see it must be mixed with faith the unseen eternal .. We walk by the unseen faith Just as did the Son of man.
The Lord not seen as father worked in the apostle Jesus giving him words to say .The power of the words no more came from the Son of man Jesus than that power that works in us, same power same kind of corrupted flesh that the power is not attributed to.
Blasphemy occurs if we were to have the Son of man stand in the holy place (faith) of our father in heavens who has not form
2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
Not of the Son of man .
God is not a
man.
He did not accept worship as a creature seen .
The "I Am" made the Father visible . He and the father are one God always was
We learn from the father not seen by watching the work of the two unfold.
When accused of being
Good Master that phrase was exclusively reserved for the unseen father.
Jesu rather than saying thank you well done to the eulogizers of the flesh that kneeled down as if God was a man.
The Son of man refused to stand in the Holy Place of faith .(the abomination of desolation).
Only God is good. Nothing about man being good. God is not a man.
No man can serve two Good teaching Masters . The
temporal what the
eyes see and the
eternal the work of the Spirit that indwells the believe reveals .
Call no man on earth father, the Master Teacher and Lord.
