But then Jesus came and taught otherwise. I think that Christianity is false enough by being in contradiction of hte hebrew Scriptures. How could Jesus hold these texts as true and contradict them. Despite he preserves the unicity of God, he also challanges reason by claiming something completely foreign to Scriptures. Are christians blind or brainless or something ?
The Spirit is mentioned in the very first chapter of the bible, hovering over the waters, and elsewhere in the old testament. Jesus appears numeous times in his preincarnate state in the old testament where he was often referred to as the "angel of the lord." In the old testament God promised that he would send a messiah, and Jesus was the fulfillment of that promise. Jesus stated that he and the father are one. After taking all references to God into account, the church officially recognized the doctrine of one God existing in three persons when they came together for a council.
Which basis do you come to identify Jesus with the spirit of God, on ? I mean in the old testament nothing can really point to Jesus as being the messiah and son of God. If God was to send a son, he would've warned the jews so that they don't reject the messiah when they claim deity. So I don't think the old testament God woul agree with Christianity
