Christians - even the Bible says that Jesus was not God so why do you say he was ?

[jenny1972]

The gospel tradition divides into two streams. There's Mark and there's John. Mark is the earliest gospel written shortly after the war that destroyed the Temple, the war between Rome and Judea. And Mark presents one type of Jesus with a particular narrative where Jesus begins in the Galilee and he ends his life in Jerusalem. John, a gospel that we can't date at all, has Jesus really with the Jerusalem ministry. He's hardly in Galilee at all. And he's really talking and preaching and doing in Jerusalem. It's a quite different story and a quite different personality. Matthew and Luke depend on Mark. Which is why those three gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke, are called the synoptic gospels. Because they can be understood together. But in terms of literary dependency, Matthew and Luke construct their story around the plot provided by Mark. and matthew mark luke and john all these people had different perceptions ideas and motivations , its not like they were impartial reporters on the scene like we have today.
