ointer:JESUS CHRIST is the clearest , most specific picture of god revealing himself to humankind . buddha, confucius, ,muhammad,moses & leaders of others faiths called themselves prophets or teachers , NONE of them ever claimed to be equal with god ...NOT ONE . that is until jesus did & that is what seperates him from the others . jesus basically said that god exists & that your looking at him,though he talked about his father in heaven it was not from a position of seperation but of very close union which was unique to all humankind . jesus said that .... anyone who had seen him had seen the father , anyone who had believed in him had believed in the father . jesus claimed attributes belonging only to god himself.... to forgive people of their sins , to give eternal life to those that believed in him , free people from their habits of sin , give people a more abundant life , etc,etc..... & what proof did jesus give for claiming divinity ........jesus performed miracles , he healed people , the blind , the crippled , the deaf along with raising people from the dead. jesus had power over objects .... he created food out of thin air , enough to feed crowds of people numbering in the thousands , he performed miracles over nature ... walking on water , he once commanded a storm to stop . jesus showed that god is gentle , loving & aware of our shortcomings so god himself showed himself to us in jesus christ & paved a way for our entrance to heaven someday when jesus/god was crucified on the crucifix & was risen from the dead three days later . muhammad , confucius or buddha or any of the hindu gods like ganesh or shiva , etc..... never did any of that . jesus christ said " i am the way , the truth & the life , no man cometh unto the father except through me "
Sal, all I did was ask a question in response to his statement - nothing negative or no bashing - just responding to his statement.
Everyone has their own beliefs, which we are all entitled to.
I wasn't trying to start a controversy but why did you come in and say what you said about me ?
I have never talked down to you or anyone else here and you come in calling me "dumb" and an "idiot".
Really ?
