WHEN DID JESUS CHRIST BECOME GOD NEVER THAT IS JESUS CHRIST IS NOT BUT THE SON OF GOD//

Steven Biondi February 6, 2010

Hi John.

re: Jesus Christ is God (in 3000 words)

Your eternal soul depends on believing this, one of several non-negotiable doctrines. We are saved from the dominion of death (darkness) by believing in the Truth (light). Read many verses to prove this claim. I hope you see that we can’t have two answers to a question.

A good reference to ease inquiry would be a Topical Bible of a historically, lexically correct version. Look up Jesus the Christ.

There are some unapproved versions of the Bible that exist either/or/both add to, take away from, change lexically, historically correct translations. The Bible is consistent with itself. You will not find it defining opposing views. For example, one unrecognized version, The New World Translation used by Jehovah’s Witnesses changes scripture – but not consistenly. I’m familiar with John 1:1-5. I will compare the New American Standard Bible with it.

John 1:1 NASB
The Deity of Jesus Christ
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word >was< God.

John 1:1 NWT

In [the] beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was >a< god. (two Gods?)<

>John 1:18 NASB
No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

John 1:18 NWT
No man has seen God at any time; the only-begotten god who is in the bosom [position] with the Father is the one that has explained him.<

>John 10:30 NASB
"I and the Father are one."

John 10:30 NWT
“I and the Father are one.”<

>John 8:58 NASB

Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am."

John 8:57-59 NWT

Jesus said to them: “Most truly I say to YOU, Before Abraham came into existence, I have been.”<

While we may not comprehend it, we can’t have it both ways.

My prayer is that you have a pure heart, believe the truth and be saved into the kingdom of life, the kingdom of His glorious Light.
