Jesus must be God.

CommentaryMy opponent would have the reader believe that he cited Biblical scholars when voicing his opinion on what certain verses meant, especially when he totally changed the meaning of what a statement said. Here is an example;"The next argument you provide is based on a definition of God presented by Merriam Webster. I should make it clear that Merriam Webster is not a Biblical dictionary and that Merriam Webster is not contextually relevant to our topic, and so I will disregard this argument by that definition but will respond with this: Jesus is also Man. Therefore, He is limited as a Man while being God. "The rejection of my source is not what I object to, but notice that he does not give a more credible source in its place, he merely gives his opinion why it should be cast aside, with no evidence to support his claim. Here is another commentary by my opponent without evidence to support it;"This passage is very simple when you take into account that Jesus was limited by humanity, that is, human nature. As I have said before, Jesus was limited by becoming Man. Therefore, in this state, Jesus would not access His ability to know all in this sense. "Again, my opponent is not debating, he is preaching, and there is a big difference; debates require that sources be used to support arguments, preaching only requires that a person be willing to believe what he is being told. Disregarding the historical evidence about TrinityMy opponent did not answer the evidence that I put forth showing that Trinity was introduced to the Christian religion by pagan converts, so I must assume that he has conceded this point. Even if he had contested this fact it would still be fruitless because it is an historic fact of history. Condescending remarks have no place in debatesI do not have a thin skin by any means but I call the readers attention to a thinly veiled insult;"Because my opponent has not introduced any new evidence or provided a rebuttal to my own arguments, there is nothing more for me to say, so I will instead use this time to provide additional references for my opponent to use to further his knowledge:"Does my opponent know the level of my knowledge, or how many languages I speak (I speak several, in fact)? Is it not arrogance for my opponent to assume that because he disagrees with someone that he somehow knows more than they? Are not Christians taught to be "harmless as doves and wise as serpeants"? Is my opponent not familiar with the admonishment in his own Christian Bible that says; "Pride goeth before destruction and a hearty spirit before a fall"? Nail in the coffin! Below I provide a exhaustive list of evidence from the Christian Bible proving that there is only one God; Deuteronomy 4:35,39 — Unto thee it was shown, that thou mightest know that the LORD he is God; there is none else beside him. (39) Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else. Deuteronomy 6:4 — Hear, O Israel: The LORD thy God is one LORD. [Note in Mark 12:28-34 how Jesus and a Jewish scribe he encountered understood this text. ] Deuteronomy32:39 — See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. 2 Samuel 7:22 — Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God; for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 1 Kings 8:60 — That all the people of the earth may know that the LORD is God, and that there is none else. 2 KINGS 5:15 — And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel; now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant. 2 Kings 19:15 — And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth. 1 Chronicles 17:20 — O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. Nehemiah 9:6 — Thou, even thou, art LORD alone; thou has made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee. Psalm 18:31 — For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God? Psalm 86:10 — For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone. Isaiah 37:16,20 — O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou has made heaven and earth. (20) Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD, even thou only. Isaiah43:10,11 — Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no savior. Isaiah44:6,8 — Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Fear ye not, neither be afraid; have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any. Isaiah 45:21 — Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time: who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior; there is none beside me. Isaiah 46:9 — For I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me. Hosea 13:4 — Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me; for there is no savior beside me. Joel 2:27 — And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. Zechariah 14:9 — And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one.

Romans 3:30 — Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith. Galatians 3:20 — Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Ephesians 4:6 — One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 1 Timothy 1:17 — Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Timothy 2:5 — For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. James 2:19 — Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. I have provided overwhelming historical and scriptural evidence that Jesus is not God. I have provided irrefutable sources. My opponent has responded with commentary without documentation. "Certainly they disbelieve who say: "Surely Allah is the third (Person) of the three"; and there is no god but One God,…. The Messiah, son of Maryam is but an apostle; apostles before him have indeed passed away; and his mother was a truthful woman, they both used to eat food. See how We make the signs clear to them, then behold how they are turned away. " ( Glorious Qu'ran Surah 5:73 – 75)
