Acts 2:22 (KJV)
Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
"He was a good man, full of the Holy
Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord. Acts
11:24 (New International Version)
Jesus is “Son of man“
(according to The Bible)
“Son of Man”(according to The Bible):
The title ´Son of Man ´ means “man “ ( in Hebrew and in Arabic “ Ben Adam “).
Ezekiel was addressed as ”son of man” (Ezekiel chapter 3:1, 4). Jesus own
personal preference was for term “son of man “, which just means “man “. This
is used 80 times in The New Testament spoken by Jesus himself according to the
Gospels. Jesus’ own personal preference was for the term “son of man “which
just means “man “(in Hebrew and Arabic “Ben Adam “ ). Not once is he reported
to categorically call himself the Son of God in any special sense.
God is not a man / Jesus was a man
God is not a man, that he should lie,
nor a son of man, that he should change his
mind.
Numbers 23:19 (New International
Version)
How then can man be righteous before
God?
Or how can he be pure who is born of
a woman?
6 How much less man, who is a maggot,
And a son of man, who is a worm?”
Job 25:4-6 (New King James Version)
5 For there is one God and one
Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,
1 Timothy 2:5
He (Jesus) was a good man, full of
the Holy Spirit and faith, Acts 11:24 (New International Version).
22 “Men of Israel, hear these words:
Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs
which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know— Acts 2:22
(New King James Version).
Luke 24:19-20 (English Standard
Version)
19And he said to them, "What
things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man
who was(A) a prophet. Luke 24:19-20 (English Standard Version)
God is not born of a woman / Jesus is
born of a woman (Maria)
16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband
of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ. Matthew 1:16 (New King
James Version)
But when the fullness of the time had
come, God sent forth His Son, born[a] of a woman, born under the law, Galatians
4:4 (New King James Version).
How can God be borne by a mortal one as any
mortal ?
A man born of a woman cannot be pure
How then can man be righteous before
God?
Or how can he be pure who is born of
a woman?
Job 25:4 (New King James Version)
But when the fullness of the time had
come, God sent forth His Son, born[a] of a woman, born under the law, Galatians
4:4 (New King James Version)
God has no Siblings / Jesus had
brothers and sisters
55 Is this not the carpenter’s son?
Is not His mother called Mary? And His brothers James, Josef, Simon, and Judas?
56 And His sisters, are they not all with us? Matthew 13:55-56 (New King James
Version).
Jesus was the servant of God
A servant is not greater than his
master
(according to The Bible)
Everyone, except for God, are God’s
servants. Jesus, too, is God’s servant. In a number of places Jesus says with
pride that he is the “servant of God .
13(A) The God of Abraham, the God of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob,(B) the God of our fathers,(C) glorified his
servant[a] Jesus. Acts 3:13 (English Standard Version). 16Truly, truly, I say
to you,(A) a servant[a] is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger
greater than the one who sent him. John 13:16 (English Standard Version)
God, having rising up his servant
sent him to you first, to bless you in turning every one of you from your
wickedness (Act 3: 26).
30Stretch out your hand to heal and
perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant
Jesus." Acts 4:30 (New International Version)
The sick are healed, signs and
wonders are performed: who does all this? It is the hand of God. The name of
Jesus may be invoked, but that is only instrumental, as an intercede, for he at
best is only “the holy servant of God.”
In a number of places Jesus says with
pride that he is the “servant of God .
Jesus was a prophet
God is not a prophet !
(according to The Bible)
Jesus was a man whom God approved of.
This means he was a righteous man. In a number of times Jesus tells the people
that he has been sent by God to the world .He has not come on his own
authority. He does not even act or speak on his authority; but he says and acts
in fulfillment of the commandment and the will of God who has sent him. These
are the true qualities of a prophet and messenger of God. Jesus is reported to
say according to Gospels:
“My food is to do the will of him who
sent me, and to accomplish his work.” John 4: 34
Whoever receives one such child in my
name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me.
Mark 9: 37
He who receives you receives me, and
who receives me receives me receives him who sent me. He who receives a prophet
because he is a prophet receives a prophet’s reward, and he who receives a
righteous man because he is righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s
reward. Matthew 10: 40 - 41
31At that time some Pharisees came to Jesus
and said to him, "Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to
kill you."
32He replied, "Go tell that fox, 'I will
drive out demons and heal people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I
will reach my goal.' 33In any case, I must keep going today and tomorrow and
the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem! Luke 13:31-33
(New International Version)
Jesus Christ’s followers and other
people who saw him and lived with him, repeat time and time again that he is a
prophet.
When the people saw the sign which he
had done, they said, “This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world.
“John 6: 14
And the crowds said, “This is the
prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee. “ Matthew 21: 11
But when they tried to arrest him,
they feared the multitude, because they held him to be a prophet. Matthew 21:
46
19And he said to them, "What
things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man
who was(A) a prophet. Luke 24:19-20 (English Standard Version).
Jesus, an apostle to Israel only
(according to The Bible)
The Bible insists that Jesus Christ
was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel and not to the whole world .Jesus
came to his people (the lost sheep of Israel) 0nly to guide them on the right
path.
21She will give birth to a son, and
you are to give him the name Jesus,[a] because he will save his people from
their sins." Matthew 1:21 (New International Version)
9 I pray for them. I am not praying
for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. John 17:9 (New International Version)
24He answered, "I was sent only
to the lost sheep of Israel." Matthew 15:24 (New International Version)
And his disciples came and begged
him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying after us. “ He (Jesus) answered,
“I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel. “
When Jesus was dispatching his twelve
chosen disciples to go out and spread the Gospel he instructed them to avoid
going into non - Israelites towns.
These twelve Jesus sent out, charging
them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles (I.e. non - Jews), and enter no town of
the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
“Matthew 10. 5 – 6
Jesus referred himself as a prophet:
He who receives you receives me, and
who receives me receives me receives him who sent me. He who receives a prophet
because he is a prophet receives a prophet’s reward, and he who receives a
righteous man because he is righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s
reward. Matthew 10: 40 - 41
Jesus referred himself as a servant
of God:
18 “ Behold! My Servant whom I have
chosen,
My Beloved in whom My soul is well pleased!
I will put My Spirit upon Him,
And He will declare justice to the Gentiles. Matthew 12:18 (New King
James Version)
13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified His Servant Jesus, whom you delivered
up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go.
Acts 3:13 (New King James Version)
27 “For truly against Your holy
Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the
Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together
Acts 4:27 (New King James Version)
30 by stretching out Your hand to
heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy
Servant Jesus.” Acts 4:30 (New King James Version)
Jesus is not God
(according to The Bible)
Jesus said: ”Now this is eternal life: that
they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent”.
John 17:1,3 (New International Version).
Was “God “created from the seed of
David?
003: Concerning his Son Jesus Christ
our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh? Romans 1:
3
The Bible gave father to a fatherless
child (Jesus).
Jesus is made from the seed of David
but he is the “Son of God! Is Human Divine?
The Christians are “programmed “to
believe on the unbelievable things. They can believe that 1 = 3 and 3 = 1 (The
Holy TRINITY). They believe that there is only one God, but beside Him Jesus
Christ is also God and The Holy Ghost is god too in their Holy Communion! They are trained to digest that “ bread “ is
not bread but “ flesh “ and “ wine “ is “ blood “ .
Christians say that God is “immutable
“i.e. unchanging .They do not believe in “incarnation “.The Bible illustrates:
052: And Jesus increased in wisdom
and stature, and in favor with God and man.(Luke 2:52)
If Jesus was God, how could He grow
in knowledge? How did He pass through the state of death? The logical
investigation finds a conflict here. There should be no doubt (or divine
“mysteries”) about God, because doubt is a dangerous tendency. There should be
a logical discussion when considering the religious matters and The Bible
courage the Christians describing; “ Come now, and let us reason together,”
Says the LORD, (Isaiah 1:18).
God is one
(according to the Bible)
There is no other God but one
4 Therefore concerning the eating of
things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that
there is no other God but one. 1 Corinthians 8:4 (New King James Version)
The LORD our God, the LORD is one.
29 Jesus answered him, “The first of
all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one.
Mark 12:29 (New King James Version)
There is no other God
39 Therefore know this day, and
consider it in your heart, that the LORD Himself is God in heaven above and on
the earth beneath; there is no other. Deuteronomy 4:39 (New King James Version)
There is none other besides Him.
35 To you it was shown, that you
might know that the LORD Himself is God; there is none other besides Him.
Deuteronomy 4:35 (New King James Version)
There is no one like the LORD our God
10 So he said, “Tomorrow.” And he
said, “Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one
like the LORD our God. Exodus 8:10 (New King James Version)

covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their
hearts. 1 Kings 8:23 (New King James Version)
20 O LORD, there is none like You,
nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our
ears. 1 Chronicles 17:20 (New King James Version)
8 Among the gods there is none like You, O
Lord;
Nor are there any works lie Your
works.
Psalm 86:8 (New King James Version)

be likened to the
Psalms 89:6
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
Who dwells on high,
Psalms 113:5
There is no savior besides Me
4 “ Yet I am the LORD your God
Ever since the land of Egypt,

That you may know and believe Me,

Nor shall there be after Me.
11 I, even I, am the LORD,
And besides Me there is no savior.

Version)

And his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts:
‘ I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God.

Version)
Jesus according to Jesus
What did Jesus say about Jesus ?
Where does Jesus say, “I am God “or
“I am equal to God “or “worship me “? None of his handful sayings in the Bible
is an explicit of deity. (Although it is quite meager yet the four Gospels
credit it to Jesus!).
Jesus is not equal to the God. He
make it clear
Jesus always expressed his
subordination to his God and Creator.
The only true God has sent Jesus
Jesus said: ”Now this is eternal life: that
they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent”.
John 17:1,3 (New International Version). 16Truly, truly, I say to you,(A) a
servant[a] is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the
one who sent him. John 13:16 (English Standard Version).
Jesus prayed to God
The Prayer in the Garden
32 Then they came to a place which
was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”
Mark 14:32 (New King James Version)
16 So He Himself often withdrew into
the wilderness and prayed. Luke 5:16 (New King James Version)
Jesus made a distinction between
himself and the Father (God).
My teaching is not mine , but his who
sent me; if any man’s will is to do his will , he shall know whether teaching
is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority . He who speaks on his
own authority seeks his own glory; but who seeks the glory of him who sent him
is true, and in him there is no falsehood. John 7: 14 – 18
Jesus was a good man
He (Jesus) was a good man Acts 11:24
(New International Version).
22 “Men of Israel, hear these words:
Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God to you by miracles Acts 2:22 (New King
James Version).

Version)
19And he said to them, "What
things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man
