Hi Abishag, thank you for your posts. There are so many quotes we've given straight from the word of God, that it's clear and undeniable. Christ as divine, Christ as the Messiah and the one true God, is absolute.

The quotes given here should be read properly and not skipped over because they say it all and should, in that case, put an end to arguments to the contrary. As no re-interpretations, removals, additions are necessary, unless God Himself orchestrates it. Nor would it be wise that a person do this. Should one be in danger of scandalising another with an edited, changed or watered down version. I would not like to answer to God. Christ has already revealed His divinity, His majesty and power over life and death (ressurrection), over the elements, walking on water, and over the demons. We can do nothing in and of ourselves in this respect, unless we do it in Hisholy name and with faith.

The miracles He has performed would not be contained within one book, but we can certainly get a good example of what He did and the power He had.

He did NOT have an earthly father biologically. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit. God Himself! We are also told this from the biblical word. Again, that is clear cut.

What caused His crucifixion? Revealing Himself as God, rather than just a "prophet". To them, He was a blasphemer. They did not realise whom Christ really was. Though many did, they were afraid if they associated themselves with Him at that time, they too would be put to death. Only a few remained at the foot of His cross. The rest were in hiding.





These and much more in this link. I'd advise reading the quotes, so that I am not forced to continually repeat them:

So whatever anybody else says outside of the word in contradiction to it, or an attempt to play down or remove Christ's divinity, is to my mind, quite irrelevent. It simply doesn't wash when one looks at what the bible tells us time and time again. Christ has made it clear He is the way, the truth and the life as quoted on here. Those who think they can take Christ onboard at the sametime as "other ways" are fooling themselves. JESUS SAID "THOSE WHAT ARE NOT FOR ME ARE AGAINST ME" AND "THOSE THAT DO NOT GATHER, SCATTER." He has made this very clear that He is not simply another "option".

I'll trust God's holy word and His witnesses (the apostles). Both the old and new testaments have revealed Christ as not only the Son of the living God, but also God Himself. It is also evident in Christ's works and His authority over all things. By their fruits you shall know them! And Christ's fruits and His witnesses are His evidence, including what continues to occur to this day in His name!
