"Simon Peter replied, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’ And Jesus answered him, ‘Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven’" (Matt. 16:16-17).
"In the beginning was the Word (i.e. Jesus), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1).
"Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am (I Am = the name/nature of God)" (John 8:58).
"‘I and the Father are one’" (John 10:30).
"For in him [Christ] the whole fulness of deity dwells bodily" (Col. 2:9).
"In many and various ways God spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets; but in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He reflects the glory of God and bears the very stamp of his nature, upholding the universe by his word of power . . ." (Heb. 1:1-3).
"But of the Son he says, "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever, the righteous scepter is the scepter of thy kingdom. . . . And, "Thou, Lord, didst found the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of thy hands." (Heb. 1:8, 10)

Hi Abraham,
I understand that you want no play on words. And since i dont know you (what your background is, the reason for your question, if you are asking an honest question or trying to justify a disbelief, etc.)....
So in light of the post by Jnthn and my ignorance of your intentions, i hope that you will accept a bit of my straying from the path of your original question... in other words, i'll try to stay away from word play, but you have to honestly consider and think of the implications.
In the first chapter of Malachi, God is pointing out to His people that they question and doubt His love for them. In verses 6-14, God turns it around, showing them that they are not giving the "firstfruits"and the "unblemished"; that their offerings and actions are not offered and acted out of love for Him.
Now the New Testament:
In Mat 9:13 (Jesus is answering the Pharisees) But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
In Luke chapter 2, starting at verse 25, Simeon had been promised that he would not die until he saw the Lord's Christ. In verses 30-32, Simeon is praising and thanking God for letting him see God's "salvation... prepared, for all people"...
Just a thought here, Abraham... "prepared" ..for a sacrifice? If it does mean 'prepared for a sacrifice, then it is God that prepared and it is God that sacrificed Jesus. And taking into account Jesus death on the cross AND the rebuke that God gave His people in the above Malachi quote-- do you think that God would sacrifice anything less than perfection?
And according to the Judeo-Christian worldview, only God is perfection. And that also gives extra meaning to Jesus' words to the Pharisees in Mat 9:13 and the verses preceeding. (publicans and sinners; "learn what that meaneth"; etc.)
I hope that i didnt stray too far from your desire of staying away from word play and i hope that it was a good enough answer for you.
God Bless,
johnny

Can we get back to the question at hand ?
.
LOL if that was Sermon / Testimony , then it might have been one of the shortest Sermon / Testimony in history.
I think i see what Jnthn meant. Sorry for giving you the benefit of the doubt.
i showed that at first glance of Mat 9:13 that Jesus was, at the very least, a prophet, come to call sinners to repentance.
In the Lucian account, there is the possibility of implication that Jesus is a sacrifice.
If He is a sacrifice, then who (Who) sacrificed Him and for whom was He sacrificed? (Hint: God is the Who and sinners are the 'whom').
If Jesus is the sacrifice from God, only a Perfect sacrifice would suffice....according to God's own words in Malachi, lest God be a hypocrite Himself.
Who is perfect, according to the Judeo-Christian worldview, apart from God?
(Hint: Jesus is God, according to scripture, which answers your original question)
God Bless,

Hi Jnthn,
Just wondering.. has Abraham said what his belief is? (Christian, Jewish, Islam, atheist, JW, etc)
It's difficult to answer to his terms, when he doesnt even state why he asks these questions. I noticed that he even asked a question in another thread, and when he got one particular answer, he told that person, "no, that's not the answer".
I agree that it does seem like he is not being very honest in his quest, unless his intention is that all religion is mindless and to get all the religious minded persons to think.... IOW, i think he thinks that no one has ever thought on these questions and that all religion is blind faith ... ironic, dont ya think?, since that too, is blind faith.
God Bless,

Who is Yashu'a , Isa , Jesus Christ according to the scriptures ?
Chapter / Verse only no playing on words ok .
[1] Now when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
Jesus is Lord.
[2] (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples),
[3] he left Judea and departed again to Galilee.
[4] He had to pass through Samar'ia.
[5] So he came to a city of Samar'ia, called Sy'char, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
[6] Jacob's well was there, and so Jesus, wearied as he was with his journey, sat down beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.
Jesus became tired. Jesus is a man.
[7] There came a woman of Samar'ia to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."
[8] For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
[9] The Samaritan woman said to him, "How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samar'ia?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.[/QUOTE
Jesus is a Jew.
[QUOTE]
[10] Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, `Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."
Jesus is the gift of God. Jesus is the means of salvation.
[11] The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; where do you get that living water?
[12] Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, and his sons, and his cattle?"
[13] Jesus said to her, "Every one who drinks of this water will thirst again,
[14] but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst; the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."
Jesus gives eternal life.
[15] The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw."
[16] Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."
[17] The woman answered him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You are right in saying, `I have no husband';
[18] for you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have is not your husband; this you said truly."
[19] The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
Jesus is a prophet.
[20] Our fathers worshiped on this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."
[21] Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
[22] You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.
Just thought I'd highlight that for you.
[23] But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.
[24] God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."
[25] The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ); when he comes, he will show us all things."
[26] Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am he."
Jesus is the Messiah. Jesus is the Christ.
[27] Just then his disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but none said, "What do you wish?" or, "Why are you talking with her?"
[28] So the woman left her water jar, and went away into the city, and said to the people,
[29] "Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?"
[30] They went out of the city and were coming to him.
[31] Meanwhile the disciples besought him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."
Jesus is a Rabbi.
[32] But he said to them, "I have food to eat of which you do not know."
[33] So the disciples said to one another, "Has any one brought him food?"
[34] Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.
[35] Do you not say, `There are yet four months, then comes the harvest'? I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see how the fields are already white for harvest.
[36] He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together.
[37] For here the saying holds true, `One sows and another reaps.'
[38] I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor."
[39] Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."
[40] So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days.
[41] And many more believed because of his word.
[42] They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of your words that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."
Jesus is the Savior of the world.
...for starters.
guaca.

You correctly mark me as hypocrite (although your math is alittle off... johnny and xtreem are the same person, which brings your 3 down to a 2 :wink: ).
I'm just wondering if you are the only human on the planet that has never had a hypocritical moment. It's something that is part of being a sinner.
guacamole showed several things that Jesus is (and he showed it within your parameters)...
i would like to add a couple of other things that Jesus is:
Matthew 27:4 innocent blood
Luke 23:47 righteous (keep in mind Rom 3:10)
And just so you know, my comments that seem to have offended you had absolutely no intention of labeling. They were in hopes that you would come with honesty and present your case... or atleast to better explain the purpose of your question.
i'm not quite sure what you mean by:
never been tested now your runing with your tails between your legs
since i dont think i'm running, nor do i feel that you've tested me.
again, may God Bless you,

I believe I started answering your question. Stop running with your tail between your legs, throwing insults, and ignoring my post like that's going to change things.
Here some more for you:
1John.4
[1] Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
[2] By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,
Jesus Christ has "come in the flesh".
Those who acknowledge that are "of God."
Heb.2
[1] Therefore we must pay the closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it.
[2] For if the message declared by angels was valid and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution,
[3] how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him,
[4] while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his own will.
[5] For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.
[6] It has been testified somewhere, "What is man that thou art mindful of him,
or the son of man, that thou carest for him?
[7] Thou didst make him for a little while lower than the angels,
thou hast crowned him with glory and honor,
[8] putting everything in subjection under his feet."
Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.
[9] But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.
Jesus was "for a little while...made lower than the angels."
John.1
[1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The Word existed from the beginning.
The Word was God.
[2] He was in the beginning with God;
[3] all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made.
The Word participated in creation.
[4] In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
[5] The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
[6] There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
[7] He came for testimony, to bear witness to the light, that all might believe through him.
[8] He was not the light, but came to bear witness to the light.
[9] The true light that enlightens every man was coming into the world.
[10] He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world knew him not.
[11] He came to his own home, and his own people received him not.
[12] But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God;
[13] who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
[14] And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father.
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.
The Word was the Son from the Father.
[15] (John bore witness to him, and cried, "This was he of whom I said, `He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.'")
[16] And from his fulness have we all received, grace upon grace.
[17] For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
From the Word we receive grace upon grace.
Grace and truth come through Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the Word.
Jesus Christ is God.
Those who acknowledge that Jesus Christ is God are of God.
Heb.12
[1] Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,
[2] looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Jesus is the perfecter of our faith. There is no subsequent revelation.
Heb.4
[14] Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
[15] For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
[16] Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Jesus, the Son of God, is our great high priest who has passed through the heavens and commands us to hold fast to that confession.
Jesus is without sin.
Mark.1
[1] The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
[2] As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face,
who shall prepare thy way;
[3] the voice of one crying in the wilderness:
Prepare the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight -- "
[4] John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
[5] And there went out to him all the country of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
[6] Now John was clothed with camel's hair, and had a leather girdle around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey.
[7] And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
[8] I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
[9] In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
[10] And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit descending upon him like a dove;
[11] and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased."
Jesus is the Son of God.
Jesus is God's messenger.
Jesus baptizes believers witht he Holy Spirit.
Jesus is Lord.
Rom.10 (http://www.hti.umich.edu/cgi/r/rsv/rsv-idx?type=DIV2&byte=5207334)
[9] because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Jesus died and was raised from the dead.

"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin." (Hebrews 4:15)
"'Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.'" (Matthew 11:28-29)
Abraham, you asked what the word "god" means, in a thread where I believe I was not allowed to post; so...if I may, here I would like to offer you what I have...using scriptures, but also a little notation >
basically, according to my Strong's Concordance Greek dictionary, the word "god" in the Greek manuscript meant basically "deity". And this same word is used for >
(1) our God and Father > "giving thanks always for all things to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ," (Ephesians 5:20)
(2) Jesus, His Son ("the Word") > "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." (John 1:1)
(3) ones "to whom the word of God came" > "'If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came, (and the Scripture cannot be broken),'" (John 10:35)
(4) the "belly" of ones Paul is referring to as "the enemies of the cross of Christ" > "whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame--who mind earthly things." (Philippianns 3:19)
(5) Satan > "whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them." (2 Corinthians 4:4)
this word in Biblical Greek is understood to be "theos", but spelled with Greek letters; also, I believe it can mean an idol or an individual (human or invisible) who is in ruling power > so the same word can have various meanings
to me, personally, "God" means the One invisible who is so very unbelievably wonderful in love very pure and kind in pleasantness which I would say is Heaven's very own pleasantness...and this love having me also love any and all people, with hope for any person; and I experience that this One's love is almighty against any sort of rage or choking depression or paranoia or perversion or immoral stuff that has ever threatened or gotten the better of me; and He is soothing, and kind, and personal and humble, and s-h-a-r-i-n-g this in His love

Who is Yashu'a , Isa , Jesus Christ according to the scriptures ?
Chapter / Verse only no playing on words ok .
Matt. 16:13-17
That would be a good place to start, but there's hardly one place in Scripture that describes all of what He is.
