According to following verses -Is Jesus God? -2

2. Is Jesus really a true God!?

And we know that the son (Jesus) of God is come and hath given us understanding that we may know him (Jehovah) is true, and we are in him (Jehovah) that is true, even in his (Jehovah) Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God (Jehovah) and eternal life.-1 John  5:20

Many christian scholars are confounded in the case of above verse also.  And according to the last part of the above that 'he is the true God and eternal life', they misundrstand and attribute the divinity to Jesus. If we pay attention on the above verse we can get the appropriate answer. The main reason of their misunderstanding is that Jesus had procalimed that 'he is the life'(John 14:6). But the Bible is a book which presents a broad concept and it has a deep message and also  consists of deep knowledge. It can be seen that a single word is used relating to many other persons. There is a threat of getting misconception of the real meaning of any verse if its meaning is not taken in proper way. Already the present day christianity has been involved into so many misconceptions. Thereby they are devided into thousands of denominations and moral values have been declined. As a matter of fact without  the unanimity in thoughts and beliefs in any religious community, even though it occupies a significant portion of the earth in majority, one day it would get the environment of confrontation. Therefore our christian scholars should give the top priority to the analytical study of the Bible. If the christian community would get such deffects, as are found in the other sects such as disunity, immorality, vagueness in the basic beliefs and inner conflicts etc., then what would be the speciality of the christianity than the other religious sects? In spite of having the great divine Book in their hands their involvement in such a degraded stage is highly regrettable.

Now let us examine the above verse. According to some words in the above such as ‘the true’ and ‘the true God’, many christian scholars misunderstand taking these words to have been referred to Jesus and attribute divinity to him. In this regard Jesus says himself as follows.

Jesus answered, thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born and for this cause came I into the world that I should bear witness unto the truth. -John 18:38

The above verse has a great significance in the teachings of Jesus. Because Jesus says himself in the above that what is the real reason of his birth. What is the basic reason of the birth of Jesus? That is "to bear the witness unto truth" what is that truth? The truth means the creator Jehovah. This means Jesus was born to bear  witness about Jehovah. With regard to this the chief disciple of Jesus explains in his epistle as follows

And we know that the son of God is come and hath given us an understanding that we may know him (Jehovah) that is true... -1 John 5:20

Further what is the reason for his explaining the above verse that He is the true God? That is...
But the Lord is the true God, he is the living God and an everlasting king -Jeremiah 10:10

Basing on the above verse Jesus and after the time of Jesus the disciples used to preach the Gospel. Contrary to this many christians forgot the true God who is Jehovah and established Jesus in the capacity of God instead of following his teachings. This is indeed the complete antithetical manner to the teachings of Jesus. Further those who strive to attribute the divinity to Jesus by any means they misinterpret the above verse (1 John 5:20) as a part of their endeavour. According to this some people attract to some words which have been used for both Jehovah and Jesus and so also relating to some other persons. To know this let us see such words in the following verses.

According to following verses -Is Jesus God?

The christian theologians are not paying so much of attention as is necessary for the reformation of social evils which have been widely spread in the christian community. In stead of propagating the moral teachings as had been taught by Jesus, they are more particular in preaching: that- Jesus has redeemed you and offered his life on cross as ransom for your sins. And he is your intercessor.  The concepts such as these make one free from fear of God which ultimately lead one to commiany kind of sin. Thus christianity too entargled in the snare of evils such as debauchery-consuming of intoxicants, raping tribery etc...  Thus the moral values have been diluted with pollution of evils to the extent that the christian community can hardly be discriminated from others. What our findings are that  the teachings of Jesus are not being projected to the expected levels by Jesus through his followers. Let alone the social evils, but theological difference of opinions and sectarian divisions also took deep roots which cannot be plucked up easily. No doubt that one can find such drawbacks in all communities. But what our grievance is that it appears by its teachings that the church has given an indirect sanction to be free from fear of God by such preachings as above mentioned. The teachings of Jesus for building up of morality and for eradication of evil from the society are so high that even if some of them were put in practice and theologiaxs pay their attention on praching them, a very good christian community would have been built up. But the person of Jesus is focussed more as divine a second of the trinity rather than on his real person as a reformer and Christ of God. But christianity has awarded divinity and worships him rather than taking him as a prophet and reformer. We cannot find Jesus to have said in the whole Bible any where that he is a god, nor had he ever preached to worship him. The twelve Apostles and the early disciples never preached the divinity of Jesus. As regards to Jesus we can find two important points of which one is that one shold believe him as a Christ sent of God and the second is that one should follow him according to his teachings.
But to prove the divinity of Jesus christian scholors make a stress on the following verses.

DID JEHOVAH GIVE AWAY HIS GLORY TO JESUS?

In these days  what is the main aspect in the propagation of the Gospel ? It is believed that Jesus is the great  and as a person who possessed of divine glory. Therefore  let us examine carefully howfar this propagation is true in the light of teachings of Jesus himself in the Gospel. 

Jesus answered, if I honour my self, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God. -John 8:54

 

         In this verse Jesus makes clear that what he had, was not his own.

        As a matter of fact the merciful God had been giving a little bit of his glory to the holy prophets to perform the miracles to make people believe in their prophethood right from the beginning in some particular circumstances. So also God had bestowed a little bit of His glory to Jesus, but here the noticeable point is that did Jesus reserve the glory, which he had been given  by God for himself ? .So let us see what Jesus says in this regard in the following verse.

WAS JESUS’ GLORY OF HIS OWN? OR WAS CONFERRED BY GOD?

      Who is Jesus in reality? The immediate answer to this question from church is that ‘Jesus is God’.  When  one wants to  attribute any specific quality  to  any person or  thing the first point necessary to be taken into consideration is, that it should be made clear  whether he or it is having the attributed quality in him or not. Contrary to this if any one  attributes any speciality  to any body according to  his whim and fancy can be termed as  the out come of his absolute ignorance .We have entered in to the scientific era so our beliefs and arguements  should be reasonable and meaningful.  And we have to believe and propagate only such beliefs as have been exhorted by prophets. Then only  we will be called as wise  and also praised by others.  And  importantly  we will enjoy the real peace and virtuous qualities in our personal life. Further we can make the society as fruitful and pieceful. But now a days a lot of supersticious beliefs are growing in the religious sector, and that is the reason why people have lost their peace and moral values in their conduct,  thereby  our society became a place  of immorality and peaceless.

JESUS’ LIFE WAS NOT HIS OWN

Who is Jesus in reality? Is he a God ? If he is  a God, indeed,  he should have owned every thing, and he should not have been given by any other the favours  such as  what he had been conferred on him - his life, power, abilities and  the glory .  Because he who is called as God  should have his  own capability and be one who is independ of all others. But one who depends on others  is not eligible to be called as God . Therefore if it is questioned as “was the life of Jesus was of his own by it self ?”
   Jesus himself gives the answer to this question in the following verse.

As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father. -John 6:57

If we ask Jesus whether the life, which he had possessed was of his own or given by some one else? Jesus answers in the above verse to this question as “I LIVE BY THE FATHER.” This is to mean that  he does not live by his own ability of living, and hence Jesus proclaims as ‘I live by Father’. This is because he  knew the truth. What is that truth? Observe in the following verse.

WHAT DOES THE PROPHECY SAY ABOUT JESUS?

It has been the custom of God of intimating through the prophecies about the Holy persons who would have  to  come in this world. Such type of information is called a prophecy.  Such prophecies were made not only relating to Jesus, but also prophesied in the case of  many other prophets too before Jesus.  And through  these prophecies God informed their signs and  some characteristics who would  have to come in to this world.   There are  two important aims in prophesying  before hand about the advent of the prophets who were to come into this world . One of them is that  people  might not be misled by the  false prophets and another is that the true prophets  might be recognised by comparing the qualities and signs as made mention in the prophecy.

What says  prophecy about the advent of Jesus?, Does it say that God himself would transform as Christ?  Or the person of Jesus was to appear in the capacity of Christ? Now let us examine carefully the proper answer to these questions in the light of  Biblical verses.

IS JESUS CREATOR OR A CREATURE?

             The analytical study of the Bible reveals clear answer to the  question as to  who is Jesus in reality?. Two confounded  beliefs  are there -whether Jesus  is Creator? or  a Creature?. So let us know distinctly  that who is the Creator according to Bible.

WHO IS THE CREATOR?

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. -Genesis 1:1

And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. -Genesis 1:31

Thou, even thou, art Lord alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all thing that are therein, the seas, and all that is threin, and thou preservest them all, and the host of heaven worshippeth thee. -Nehemiah 9:6

       We have a number of verses such as above in the Bible all of which establish the fact that ‘Only Jehovah is the Creator of whole Universe’. Two important points can be noticed from the above verses. One of them is that God has created the heavens and the earth, and the second is that he made all things, which are existing in between these two. From these two points it is evident that  the only  Creator is exclusively beyond the creation. It means except Him everything and what all exist such as all souls, Angels, holy Spirits and Prophets...  all  are His creatures.

According to the holy bible: Jesus Did Not Die On the Cross –1

Dear readers!

         There are good and evil attitudes generally mixed in the nature of human beings. “how far a man controls  the evil attitudes those prevail in his mind, and how far he promotes the good attitude that are taking place in his mind – is only an examination  by God almighty for the life of mankind.

         But not knowing this fact, some people, those badly think, want to get great honors and huge wealth in a short way from common people. That’s why they have chosen the religious ground and have been making some false beliefs and false rituals and making market to their false beliefs in the name of Holy Scriptures. Because these common people do not believe anything without the proof of Holy Scripture.

MAN HAS BEEN CREATED - WHAT FOR?

 Those who follow the Bible should  know  the appropriate  answer for the  question that  what for man has been created? And observe the following verses  what the answer of the Bible about this. 

          Then said the Lord unto Moses, behold, I will rain bread from
          heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a cerain
          rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in
          my law, or not.    -Exodus 16:4  

         ...For the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye love
         the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.    
                                                                                     -Deuteronomy 13:3

ANALYSIS IS GIVEN THE TOP PRIORITY IN THE BIBLE

         We can see a number of strange and peculiar methods as  increasing in the christian community,  whereby all believers are being confused. As a result immorality is taking root and creating disunity and conflicts among them. The reason for  all these  confusions  is the neglegency of the people  not  going in analytic study of the  Bible but  following of the whimsical ways, which they have invented. But  to be frank Bible gives a top priority  for the analysis.

           Thus saith the Lord, stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the

            old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein and ye shall 

           find rest for your souls. -Jermiah 6:16 

  

          On a careful examination of the above verse some important points came in to light. The  first of them is that  if there are  many ways or beliefs  existing  we  should not follow them blindly without analysis. And second is that we have to examine carefully that which of them is the correct way or belief that should be followed in order to get salvation.

Who Is Jesus in reality?

Many People believe Jesus according as to the Propagation or through their family tradition. This is well. It is necessary that every one,  who believes in Jesus,  should know the appropriate answer to the  question  that  WHAT IS THE CORRECT WAY OF BELIEVING JESUS?.  Because it is obvious that one gets salvation only through the appropriate  and accurate  belief in Jesus as propounded by God.  But  if any one believes contrary to this  it is impossible for  him to attain the salvation .  However in these days a lot of misconceptions and confusions  in believing  Jesus are found in the Christian community. Some believe him as begotten son of God and incarnation of God while some believe him as God himself, and some believe him as one of the triune Gods,  and some believe him as the complete  God and complete human being with divine qualities. According to logic these types of  irrelevant opinions  regarding one person cannot be accepted as true. Therefore
