Originally posted by Christianbookworm View PostAt least you aren't claiming that a human male from Nazereth named Jesus didn't exist and was actually based on the hero myth... now that is not very scholarly at all!

Originally posted by ChaosRain View PostIt would still not make any sense, because whereas Jesus was a very historically benevolent individual, God was certainly not. To call Jesus the "face of God" would be nonsensical, given the two characters' differing natures within the novel.אָכֵ֕ן אַתָּ֖ה אֵ֣ל מִסְתַּתֵּ֑ר אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃

Is Jesus necessarily so limited and unable to expand upon our perception of the nature of God by his teaching and example?

Originally posted by ChaosRain View PostNo, but you are, if you follow the Bible as some here do. I, however, am free to go where I choose.
Originally posted by ChaosRain View PostJesus is limited to his character, and cannot accommodate God's countering character. To say that Jesus was both himself and God would be to have split-personality disorder. He was certainly not teaching by God's example.אָכֵ֕ן אַתָּ֖ה אֵ֣ל מִסְתַּתֵּ֑ר אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃
