Jesus ain't God.

See my defns of "elohim" up the tree. 10% of the time they referred to those NOT GOD in the Bible.




He called himself "elohim" in Jn 10, ma'am. Why bring up lesser 'elohim' to prove he is GOD in the reference to Psalm 82?

Context. 'Elohim' is like us writing 'God'.

Straight translation of 'Lord' would be more like YHWH, but this is semantics anyways, the title is referring to the same Deity.

I will answer that if you answer this first.

Mk 12:35 While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, he asked, “How is it that the
teachers of the law say that the Christ is the son of David?

"Son of David" is not saying divinity. He would be a descendant of David, the Messiah. Through the mother in the flesh or through the father in apparent
comprehension. I am no expert on the lineage issue. I used to know the theories and the rationales for. These slip my mind now.


Mk 12:36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared: “ ‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.” ’
Mk 12:37 David himself calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?” The large crowd
listened to him with delight.

In verse 36 we read 2 Lords “the Lord said to my Lord”and in V37 we read just 1 Lord.
Can you tell the difference between these Lords in Mark to Isaiah’s 21:16 “Lord”?

Psalm 110

110 The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

2 The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

Mark 16

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

Oh you meant Mark 12

35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?

36 For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

You transposed LORD GOD with the Lord Jesus. In fact Jesus is called "lord" many times in NT...this does not correlate to the Lord Adonai of the OT, which usually was a direct parallel to "YHWH."

A very key component to Trin confusion. The Massoretic Text of Psalm 110:

ieue
Yahweh
לַ אדֹ נִ י
l·adn·i
to·lord-of·me
שֵׁ ב
shb
sit-you

And the word ADONAY is not here, rather a form of Adoni. A common reference to a man rather than God. There furthermore isn't ONE LORD which is One Lord Theology. Since how can two Persons of the Godhead be "one lord?"


Isa 21:16 For thus hath the “Lord” said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of a
hireling, all the glory of Kedar shall fail;

This verse I am not familiar with. How does it apply here and why are you bringing it up? Nothead doesn't know all things, just the primal ones at least compared to mainline gomers.

10% of the time you are wrong. ESPECIALLY concerning Thomas' "my lord and my elohim."

All you are saying is that Thomas is saying "my God and my God."

I know this because the exclamation of Thomas was never repeated ever again in NT.

You did not give an alt-terp for thou shalt not kill here.
What is it, JM? What else can it be? Are you a Jain? Don't kill insects?
God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses for the Israelites or the people in Exodus 20.

IOW, God did not give the Ten Commandments to the Gentiles before, during, and after the Lord Jesus Christ ministry here on earth.

The Book of the Covenant [from Gen.20:22 to 23:33] is the exposition of the Ten Commandments.

Ex 24:8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people/Israelites, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you/Israel [and not with the Gentiles] concerning all these words.

IOW again, one cannot separate one from the other because one cannot work without the other or they are one piece of Law of God. They, the Ten Commandments and The Book of the Covenant, are one piece of Law of God designed only for the Israelites during that time.

They are not for the Gentiles during Moses’ and the Prophets’ time, except for the Gentile proselytes, and before and after the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ or of today. IOW, the Law of Moses is not for Gentiles to follow.

For example: In the book of Joshua, everytime the Israelites conquer a city in Canaan they don’t do nothing but kill all the people in that city and take their properties.

Jos 8:22 Then the Israelites who were inside the city came out and started killing the enemy from the rear. So the men of Ai were caught in a trap, and all of them died. Not a single person survived or escaped.
Jos 8:27 Only the cattle and the treasures of the city were not destroyed, for the Israelites kept these for themselves, as the LORD had commanded Joshua.

Now, the question is, were they violating two of God’s commandments in the Ten Commandments?

Ex 20:13 Thou shalt not kill.
Ex 20:15 Thou shalt not steal.

NO! Because these two commandments are applicable only within the community of God and that is, the Israelites ONLY. Outside from this community, as long as God is commanding them, they can do anything to anyone without violating the Ten Commandments and The Book of the Covenant.

We could never understand these two commandments of God, if we base it on Joshua 8:22-27, and if we don’t read The Book of the Covenant where it says,

Ex 21:12 “Anyone who hits a person hard enough to cause death must be put to death.
Ex 21:16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

Can we apply these rules to a non-Israelite then and to Christians now?

No! Christians cannot pick and choose which of the Law of Moses to follow because the whole Law of Moses is one piece of Law of God that one cannot separate for his or her own purposes.

Another example is, tithing. Many Christian churches use this part of the Law of Moses to collect money from the congregation. They use Malachi 3:8-10 for tithing, but if you read this book, God was talking to the priests and the Israelites and not to Gentiles or Christians of today.

IOW, Christians cannot just pick this particular Law of Moses and ignore the rest.

Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

No explanation needed on this verse. One cannot pick and choose which of the Law of Moses to follow otherwise, one is under the curse of God, or “fallen from grace“.

Gal 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

And you, a Gentile, trying to adapt the Law of Moses because your leader says so. Heretics!

You wouldn’t know what to do if you apply the whole Law of Moses to your daily living today.

You will be doing nothing but reading and applying the Law of Moses all day everyday 24x7. Heretics!!!

No, he's saying exactly what it states, When 'God' is used for "other" gods it is always specified, it has to be because in the Hebraic paradigm there is only one Deity to be worshipped. When you read scripture with that understanding you will realize that it is quite easy to differentiate the Hebraic Deity from other 'gods'. "Elohim" written straight with no other description to indicate other 'gods' always means "The G-d".
Granted in this instance it could be 'poetic' or such, but in other context it always means G-d/YHVH.
So, Thomas here would not be saying some 'other' god regardless.

He has to be saying it, since no other believer in his day who authored NT ever repeated it.

Jesus our Lord and God. My Lord and my God.

Your Lord and God. Their Lord and God.

Here is where the 10% comes into play. The cherry picked interpretation, the one of LESSER PROBABILITY comes into play for just such a reason.

Just suppose every disciple before this event or after realized Jesus is the One True God. Now the reason to say the formula which was never said is primal.

And in context Thomas did not believe the apparition before him was JESUS. Why would he all of a sudden believe something ELSE, that Jesus is not only this entity he TOUCHED, but also GOD TOO?

Thomas saying that is not why Xians worship Jesus as G-d or a manifestation of G-d. They do so because the religious background is monotheistic. Jesus in Xianity is not a 'normal' person, that's why in Scripture He is anointed by the three wise men before His baptism by John. The Deific nature is from birth, not acquired. I understand the confusion as many explanations are difficult to decipher, and even in the 'trinity' idea, which officially is monotheistic, people sometimes believe that Jesus is a separate entity in the Godhead. You can notice the obvious problem with this as we would then have imo more than one Deity.

God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses for the Israelites or the people in Exodus 20.

IOW, God did not give the Ten Commandments to the Gentiles before, during, and after the Lord Jesus Christ ministry here on earth.

1) The Ten were so 101 no disciple thought to teach them. Jesus does teach them to Jews as I have depicted but because these were not to Gentiles you think you as a Gentile are excluded. The BASIS of our faith was the original Word of God to OUR Fathers in the Hood, Abraham and Moses. And Abraham NOT EVEN knowing the Shema by text or verbal command was faithful so much to his One God, he placed his own beloved son under Him, and was blessed for his faith, with his spiritual descendants like the stars in the sky...

...YOU being one of these sir. Wow talk about ignorusness to the maximus.

2) Jesus did not teach them to GENTILES since his original ministry was to the Jew and to the God-fearer, whom numbered not many.

3) Your theology is so hokey my example of where it leads went right over your head. Do you really think that German Lutheran avoidance and "blindness" to the Holocaust could have occurred if they even adhered to 101 BASIC theology? Thou shalt not covet, would stop them in their tracks. Do unto others would stop them cold. We are not talking of JESUS' hard sayings, just basic and fundamental Law.

See, morality is righteousness. They had the very same theology as you and look what happened. Their IDOLS were prioritized and they LENT a blind eye to the whole shebang, claiming IGNORANCE later. The LEADERS were prosecuted and hanged, but what of the guards among the clean-up the bodies crew? What of the train guards and gatherers in the slums which harbored displaced Jews? What of the soldiers, the common ones who gathered them INTO the slums? Out of their homes, into trains headed to mass destruction. What of these soldier's families who moved INTO the houses of the forcefully displaced? Really you are blind as many many Christians are blind to the extent that this SORT of thing shall happen again.

God is not to be shirked or ignored. If only a basic heed to the will of YHWH Elohim, and the Holocaust would be deleted along with the common pretentiousness of humans: 6 MILLION JEWS. What war ever killed as many? Iran-Iraq? The Korean War? The 50 thousand Americans who died in Vietnam? Try 120 TIMES this number. Line these 6 million side-by-side and see how far the bodies go...the distance is staggering beyond comprehension. Yet you will WILLFULLY ignore this blood crying out from the ground.

16 average inches for the human body. PRE-starved unto death. 12" after starvation UNTO death. 63360 inches divided by 12 is 5280 bodies to the mile. 6000000 divided by 5280. 1,136 miles of bodies. But the chest cavity is still 16" average so the figure is more like 3960 bodies to the mile. 1515 miles. At 60 mph this would take 25 hours to traverse. Start your day driving and the next day at the same time, with no stops along the way, this mileage is covered.

A lotta bodies, alotta blood. The distance is from my location, Austin TX to New York, as the crow flies. Remember, these were not war enemies of Germany, only innocents. People whom you could call NEIGHBORS.


The Book of the Covenant [from Gen.20:22 to 23:33] is the exposition of the Ten Commandments.

Ex 24:8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people/Israelites, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you/Israel [and not with the Gentiles] concerning all these words.

Are you saying the blood of the covenant in Exodus 24 is REPLACED by the blood of Jesus? I don't refute you here. But this abrogates the Law and the Prophets? No.

Jesus did not come to abrogate the Law in it's pristine and fundamental form. Amen.



IOW again, one cannot separate one from the other because one cannot work without the other or they are one piece of Law of God. They, the Ten Commandments and The Book of the Covenant, are one piece of Law of God designed only for the Israelites during that time.

Ugh you are really getting radical, for no assembly I ever was in said this. What is so offensive to you in the Ten or the Shema or the Golden Rule?

It is basic starting point, and really you will never understand that Jesus was EPITOME of Law and not the abrogator of. Not even Lutherans say this, and I was Wisconsin Synod for a short while.

GOD has an identity stated in EX 3:14.
JESUS uses this name 'I AM' on several occasions referring to Himself ...
A clear claim that He Jesus indeed is God... the reaction of the people...
- they wanted to stone Him making the claim...
- the guards in getsemane fell to the ground...
Clear evidence Christ Jesus indeed is God walking in the flesh between his creation and they did not recognise Him...

So then I do believe the later small Law had changed but not the LARGE LAW. Which is to me, the Ten, the Shema and the Golden Rule.

THE SMALL LAW IS THAT THE TEN AND THE SHEMA? AND THE BIG LAW IS THE WHOLE Law of Moses?

Jesus, whom is said to be in the order of Melchizedek, by Hebrews?
The Lord Jesus Christ is the High Priest according to Hebrews.

READ AND UNDERSTAND:

Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then would no place have been sought for a second.

Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant he hath made the first old. But that which is becoming old and waxeth aged is nigh unto vanishing away.

2Co 3:6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant&#8212;not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

2Co 3:14 But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away.

2Co 3:15 Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.

2Co 3:16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

2Co 3:17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

You&#8217;ve answered or you&#8217;ve contradicted your own statement.


You have to understand the Lord Jesus did not preach to the Gentiles in the four gospels, but only on two occasions.

Mt 15:24 He answered, &#8220;I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.&#8221;

The Gentiles did not get into the picture until the middle part of Acts, and that is, Chapter 10 of Acts. Gentiles were grafted.

Ro 11:11 Again I ask: Did they stumble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious.
Ro 11:17 If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root,
Ro 11:18 do not boast over those branches. If you do, consider this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
Ro 11:19 You will say then, &#8220;Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.&#8221;

You want me to get into this argument so you could play it the way you want. Not interested. But read this anyway this might wake you up into reality that you are a Gentile AND NOT PART OF THE SEMITIC JEWS.

Ro 2:14 (Indeed, when GENTILES, WHO DO NOT HAVE THE LAW, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law,
Ro 2:15 since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them.)
