I believe God is a title and not a name. As in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. 3 deities one God.
This principle works in our world as well. In the United states there is only one governing authority over everything, but within this goverment there are three branches. The executive (The office president) The Legislative (Congress/The house) The judicial (The Courts)
Exactly. Where is this mentioned in the Bible? I am an atheist but, I keep an open mind, so if you can produce a single unequivocal statement from the Bible where Jesus himself says "I am God" or where he says "worship me" I'm ready to embrace Christianity.
Promise?
This all comes from John 10:
30 The Father and I are one.”
31 Again the Jews there picked up stones to kill Jesus. 32 But he said to them, “The many wonderful things you have seen me do are from the Father. Which of these good things are you killing me for?”
33 They answered, “We are not killing you for any good thing you did. But you say things that insult God. You are only a man, but you say you are the same as God! That is why we are trying to kill you!”
(The Jews sure though Jesus just claimed to be God, to the point of not needing a trial or any discussion like they did when they finally put him to death.)
36 So why do you accuse me of insulting God for saying, ‘I am God’s Son’? I am the one God chose and sent into the world. 37 If I don’t do what my Father does, then don’t believe what I say. 38 But if I do what my Father does, you should believe in what I do. You might not believe in me, but you should believe in the things I do. Then you will know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”
Meaning Christ and The Father are the Same/Both are God.
So you got your sunday cloths pick out yet? or will you try and back out of what you said?
