Please read this , I typed all that, i hope you read it
"I said things that I see them as I find them, " so now you should agree with me since you take things as you see them1) The verse he quoted, jesus one of his disciple philip asked him: " Lord, show us the Father" and Jesus said:" since i've been among you, don't you know me. anyone who has seen me has seen the Father."
considering how you look at things you are saying father and jesus are the same person ( contridicts number 1)
2) 1st verse of John 14, jesus says : " Trust in God; trust also in me", There are 2 different persons.
contridicts with number 1
3) 1 John 4.12
12No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
no man hath seen god , very clear if we take it as it was said right
again contridicts with number 1
4) john 6.45,46
45It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
46Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
so are all the ones who have seen jesus from god????
so how can you say
" I am sorry King, but it is you who are delusional"
if you have not studied your own bible??
also "I said things that I see them as I find them, not what have been passed on from scholars and priests, which obviously is the case for you."
The bible is not meant to just be read and taken as what you say, you study it as a whole and not just pick what you want out of it , because if you do that it will contridict each other as i have shown you
John 20.17:
" do not hold on to me, go instead to my brothers, my disciples and tell them, I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."
what does that mean?????
For example Jesus clearly says to Mary from Magdala in John 20.17:
" do not hold on to me, go instead to my brothers, my disciples and tell them, I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."
And the verse 1 John 5.20
It doesn't give to Jesus the right to divinity
verse says this " we know that the Son of God has come, to give us the knowledge of the truth, and we are in the truth in his Son Jesus christ He is the true God and the eternal life
What does that mean?
Pay attention now
if you take this verse in a litteral meaning,
you will directly contredict with the words of jesus himself in John 17.3 where he says addressing to god " The eternal Life is for them to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent."
Jesus is saying about God that he is the true god and that he is just a messenger of God
Didn't he say that he was the way?
no one goes to The Father, who does not go through him
He is the way not the destination,
Way to the airport isn't the airport
isn't that right?
People are just victim of the system created by the catholic church, the " christocentrism".
Meaning we have to interput the bible int he light of Jesus
I suggest you study the bible and not just read it
Peace to you
