Lovely but try harder!
The quote from your God in Exodus 3:14 is not the same as what Jesus quoted in John 8:58.

Check John 8:24 your translators playing with your head translated the same "ego eimi" as "I am He" and not "I am" again as before!

In other places, ego eimi was translated as "I am the one". Even the blind man Jesus healed did used it.

John 8:59 When Jesus said this, the people picked up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus hid Himself, and then He left the Temple.



Notice from the verse above, the people wanted to stone Him because of blasphemy because they understood that when Jesus said I AM, He was talking about Yahweh

God even get mouth and sex organ! I guess he must have had wet dreams too!
God even died! God was killed by death on behalf of himself!

This is false!

But He RESURRECTED from the dead by God's Mighty Power to show that He is GREATER than death


Mind you Adam the first man was suppose to be God pikin grin

St. Luke 3:38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.

Is it faith as defined by David Oyedepo (and Kenneth Hagin) or faith as defined by the Lord Jesus Christ? David Oyedepo defines faith as the weight a man places on the words that have come out of his own mouth. Christ defines the word as the confidence you have in what God has ever said, written in the Bible. Which one are we really growing?
Very good question because faith as defined by Jesus Christ differs completely from faith as defined by Oyedepo and the other gods of men out there. lipsrsealed

Genesis 1:26-28. 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

John 14:8 Philip asks Jesus to show him the Father, who is the same as Jesus, and Jesus replies that anyone who has seen Him has seen the Father.

Jesus Christ in the Bible is also different from the Jesus Christ preached from the many pulpits of the religion of Christianity as well and its more than 47,000 sects/denominations. undecided

Over 47000 different sects/denominations each worshipping a different idol of the person of Jesus Christ. That's not to say other religions don't do the same since you rarely find a religion out there where the magic of special interpretation is not to be found. lipsrsealed

Given that Jesus Christ in Matthew 25 vs 31 - 41 explained that He is the ruler of the jurisdiction that is Heaven(Eternal Reward) in the Kingdom of God, I think it makes sense to believe He is, in fact, God of the Heavenly domain within the Kingdom of God. Do you not think so? undecided

You are right!
But both Qur'anic and Biblical Jesus were born by Mary through the normal birth passage!
Both were fed and protected by Mary!
Both did miracles by praying to God!
Both was sent to the Israelites as the Messiah!
Both Jesus ate food, shit and cried like any human!
Both Jesus prayed to God!
Both Qur'an and Bible believe Jesus will come again!

That is instead faith as defined by your religious gods of men. Faith as defined by Jesus Christ is something entirely different from the lies of your pastors and mogs. undecided

John 14:8 Philip asks Jesus to show him the Father, who is the same as Jesus, and Jesus replies that anyone who has seen Him has seen the Father.

Anyone who has seen the messenger of God has seen God! No one can see God!

Jesus explains your verse below:

John 5:30
I cannot do a single thing of my own initiative. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous because I seek, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

John 6:38
for I have come down from heaven to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

John 14:24
Whoever does not love me does not observe my words. The word that you are hearing is not mine, but belongs to the Father who sent me.

John 14:31
But for the world to know that I love the Father, I am doing just as the Father has commanded me to do. Get up, let us go from here.

John 12:49-50
For I have not spoken of my own initiative, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment about what to say and what to speak. And I know that his commandment means everlasting life. So whatever I speak, I speak just as the Father has told me.”

Jesus Christ literally declares Himself God in Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46 where He declares that He is the judge and King over all the souls whom He will raise back to life when He returns. His God-hood over those in the Kingdom of God is not revealed only in the Gospel of John but in all of the Gospels. lipsrsealed

■ Where was that? And why was Jesus not worshipping himself but praying to God?
The statement was made through the Prophets — Daniel, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Isaiah— and also in the Gospels where on at least two occasions God calls on the people to Obey His Son, Jesus Christ — the New agreement — Jesus Christ. lipsrsealed

He ressurected by which God's power?

Why not worship the father that can't die?

Anyone greater than death will not die at all!

God no get pikin! God created Adam from earth! God is powerful to create anything He wants!

Adam has no parents!
Eve was created from Adam!
Jesus was born with a Mother!
All others have both parents!

What happened was because Jesus was talking in parables purposely so that they won't understand!

Jesus wanted them to die in sins so he explains to his disciples later!

If you need the verses for the opinions above I can give you!

Jesus Christ, the Eternal Life of the Father, cannot die either. He made this known in John 10 vs 7 - 18. He said He laid down His own life and He picked it back up again. lipsrsealed

As for worship, The God of Israel explicitly commanded the Lost sheep of Israel to worship Jesus Christ as they could no longer worship under His Old Law, so why do you reject the Words of the God of Israel? undecided
