Yes But, WHO IS JESUS (REALLY)? |
Yes But, WHO IS JESUS (REALLY)?
Jesus said: "Unless you believe I am He you shall die in your sins."
John 8:24
Who is the "He" to whom He is referring?
Trinitarians would pervert these words of Jesus, and make His words
mean, "unless you believe the doctrine of the trinity... you will die in
your sins."
The Trinitarians say:
"This is unfortunate because if you do not know who
Jesus is (who He REALLY is), then your faith is not
on the true foundation. This is not a light matter.
When you change who Jesus is, you by necessity pervert
the Gospel message."
I agree... When you change who Jesus IS, then you have perverted the Gospel.
Now the Question is, "Who is Jesus (really), and who is it that perverts
the Gospel message?"
FIRST:
What the Bible Teaches, Who is Jesus?
A) What did the Law and Prophets say about Jesus?
Jesus is descendant of Eve, through Abraham, Gen. 3:15, 12:3, 18:18.
Born in the Line of David, Psalms 89:3-4,
Born of a virgin, Isa. 7:14,9:6-7,
Born in Bethlehem Micah 5:2,
A forerunner would precede Him. Mal. 3:1.
He would preach in Galilee. Isa. 9:1-2.
He would be a Prophet, a preacher of deliverance. Deu. 18:15, Isa. 61:1-3.
He would be meek, and rejected. Isa. 42:2, 53:3.
And, He would be ordained a Priest after the order [type or kind] of
Melchizedek. Psalms 110:4.
B) Who does Jesus say He Is?
In Matthew and John there are about 59 references to "My Father."
He referred to God as "My God":
"And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi,
Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why
hast thou forsaken me? [KJV] Mark 15:34
"Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my
Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my
Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. [KJV] John 20:17
He told John's messengers that He was the fulfillment of the prophecies,
"he who is to come." John 7:19-23,
CONFESSIONS OF PETER AND MARTHA
"Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." Mat 16:16
"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that
believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever
liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?"
"She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the
Son of God, which should come into the world." John 11:25-27
There is no evidence that Jesus corrected Peter or Martha. Did Jesus
teach the doctrine of the trinity? No, there is no scripture of Jesus
referring to himself as a person of a multiple personality being, or to
His Father God as a triune being.
C) Who did the Apostles say Jesus is?
John 1:1-3 [Greek]
3788 2258 1722 746 4314 3588 2316
He was in beginning with *THE* God
John distinguished between God the Son and God the Father.
http://www.scripture4all.org/OnlineInterlinear/Greek_Index.htm
"And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God." John 20:28 KJV.
"Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to
God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all
authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies
under his feet." 1 Cor 15:24-25
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man
Christ Jesus" [KJV] I Timothy 2:5
"And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of
sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel." [KJV]
Hebrews 12:24
1 Cor 11:3 "The head of Christ is God."
Did the Apostles teach that Jesus is a member of a 'triune being'? No,
there is no reference to Jesus as a person of a multiple personality
being, or to His Father God as a triune being.
GIVEN ALL AUTHORITY, ALL POWER
"The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make
thine enemies thy footstool. The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength
out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies." Ps 110:1-2 Mat
28:18, 1 Cor 15:24-28.
Since Jesus was given ALL Power and ALL Authority, then He was given
Power to walk on water, the heal the sick, AND to forgive sin.
Did Abraham, Moses, Isaiah or any Old Testament Prophet describe Jesus
as a "persona of a triune being"? No. Nowhere in the Old Testament is
God defined or described as a triune being.
In fact, Deu 6:4 states that the Lord, God, is one, not triune.
SECOND:
What Trinity Doctrine teaches
1) Who do the Trinitarians say Jesus is?
That Jesus is person of a multiple personality being.
That the Holy Spirit is a person of a multiple personality being.
That God the Father is a multiple personality being.
2) When did the doctrine of the trinity come into the Church? After
Ad325-388, and it has continued to be edited and modified, and there are
at least two major versions of it.
3) Who is it that "changes who Jesus is"?
The Trinitarians.
Pagan theology
A.D. 150 Justin Martyr, introduces Greek Philosophy.
A.D. 170 The word "Trias", appears first in Christian literature.
A.D. 200 "Trinitas" is first introduced by Tertullian.
A.D. 260 Sabellius: "Father, Son and Holy Ghost are three names for the
same God".
A.D. 325 "Nicene Creed" affirms Christ to be "Very God of Very God".
A.D. 381 Council of Constantinople invents "Three persons in One God".
A.D. 388 Emperor Theodosius threatens punishment to all who won't
worship the Trinity.
CONCLUSION
Who is it that "changes who Jesus is"?
Since the Old testament Law and prophets do not teach that Israel knew
or worshiped a triune god,
And,
Since Jesus did not state or reveal that He was a person of a triune god,
And,
Since the Apostles did not teach the First Century Church the doctrine
of a triune god,
And,
Since the Apostles did not include the doctrine of a triune god in the
New Testament,
Therefore,
it is those who teach the doctrine of a pagan three headed god who
change who they believe Jesus is.
WHAT DO WE NEED TO BELIEVE?
As Jesus said, "unless you believe I am He," (John 8:24) "you will die
in your sin."
The "He" Jesus claimed to be is the Son of God as foretold in prophecy.
He claimed to be the Son of God as depicted in the Law of Moses,
writings of David and Solomon, and in the Law and Prophets.
If we read the Law, books of wisdom and the prophets, and believe that
Jesus of Nazareth is that Son of God, then we do, in fact, believe that
He is "He."
As Jesus told Martha, John 11:25-27) "I am the resurrection, and the
life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live."
Martha answered, " I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God,
which should come into the world." Martha did not exhibit any knowledge
of a triune being. (In fact, triune gods were an abomination to the Jews.)
If we believe in this same Jesus, as confessed by Martha, as described
by the Old Testament, as described by the Apostles, then we have eternal
life.

Irrelevant. The Greek word is eimi, which means: to be, to exist, to
happen, to be present.

You need to take the whole message into consideration..
John 8:23-29
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of
this world; I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye
believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even
the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is
true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then
shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my
Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I
do always those things that please him.
KJV
"He" is the One from above, (v23) The same One that He spoke of from the
beginning, ie; the Son of the Father (v27), who is with Him, (v29) as well
as the Son of man(v28)

That would be a reasonable conclusion If the preposition was actually
present in the source texts.
The phrase "I am" is significant in the following verses in that it
associates Yeshua with Elohim. It is with Elohim that a group of
individuals share a commonality:
And Elohim said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt
thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Exodus 3:14
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham

Exodus 3:14
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham
was, I am.
John 8:58
Jesus did not say that his name is Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh, as did Yahweh in
Exodus 3:14, which name can be understood in English with various meanings
to reflect the context: "I am who I am"; "I will be who I will be"; "I cause
to be what I cause to be", etc. I believe the context in Exodus 3:14
indicates that the holy name should be understood to be causative, a
reflection of what God was about the cause to be, the realization of his
promise to give Abraham's people the land of Canaan, as well as a
demonstration of His ability to cause whatever He wills to be in the eyes of
the Pharaoh of Egypt. Likewise, I do not believe that the name "Yahweh"
simply designates him as "He is", "He exists", but rather that the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is active in causing his word to be accomplished,
especially as related to any convenant, or promise, he has made: "He [who]
causes to be." As a name, however, EHYEH ASHER EHYEH should be rendered with
as either a transliteration, or in a form commonly used by whatever language
it is rendered into, as are other personal names in Bible translations.
EHYEH is the same verb as YAHWEH, but first person. EHYEH= "I cause to be"
and YAHWEH= "He causes to be". I don't know of any translation that renders
the verb "Yahweh" -- the name the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob calls
himself in Exodus 3:15,16, into English as "HE IS", or "HE WILL BE", "HE
WILL PROVE TO BE", or "The HE IS", etc., as almost every translation does
with with EHYEH in Exodus 3:14.
Some may claim that Jesus was quoting the LXX when he said "I am" in John
8:58. How does the LXX render the name EHYEH ASHER EHYEH? And how does it
render the EHYEH in the phrase where Yahweh states: "You shall tell the
children of Israel this: 'EHYEH has sent me to you.'"? The first phrase is
rendered as "ego eimi ho ohn". Brenton renders this name as "I am the
being." The short form (EHYEH by itself) is rendered "HO OHN" in the LXX,
not "EGO EIMI". Brenton renders the short form of the name as "The being",
not "I am". (I am not saying that the LXX is correct, just pointing out how
it renders the holy name in Exodus 3:14.) Thus if Jesus had been quoting the
LXX regarding the holy name of God, he would have said Before Abraham was,
HO OHN, which really would not make any sense. Of course, Jesus was not
talking about his name (as was the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in Exodus
3:14), but of his existence before Abraham.
The Greek present tense, used in a past setting, relates to an event in the
past before the event spoken of. In English, we we would say something like:
"I have/had been existing since before Abraham was." The only way to express
such an idea in the Koine Greek was to use the present tense verb in a past
setting. Jesus was saying that he had an existence before Abraham was. But
he did not say that he was Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He
claimed the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as his God, whom he worshiped.
The idea that Jesus was saying that he was the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob, or that he was saying that he always existed before Abraham, has to
be added to and read into what Jesus said.

If this is meant to refer to "everlasting father" in Isaiah 9:6, I have no
scriptural reason to believe that this applies to Yahweh who is the one who
performs the things toward the son. -- Isaiah 9:7.

Nor do I have any scriptural reason to think that Yahweh is "Father" as
several different persons.

God calls those things are not as though they were. (Romans 4:17) Those
spoken of in the Old Testament who had faith are reckoned, counted, imputed
(Romans 4:3) as justified to life to God (Luke 20:38; Romans 4:3-24; 5:18;
6:11) by means of Jesus' sacrifice. They are counted as not dead, but
asleep. Thus, though they are asleep in death, in view of the future
resurrection as a result of the ransom sacrifice of Jesus, they are alive to
God.

No, it was Elohim was spoke to Moses in Exodus 3:14
Yes, ELOHIM, YAHWEH, EHYEH, spoke of Moses in Exodus 3:14.
I believe the context in Exodus 3:14
indicates that the holy name should be understood to be causative, a
reflection of what God was about the cause to be, the realization of his
promise to give Abraham's people the land of Canaan, as well as a
demonstration of His ability to cause whatever He wills to be in the eyes
of
the Pharaoh of Egypt. Likewise, I do not believe that the name "Yahweh"
simply designates him as "He is", "He exists", but rather that the God of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is active in causing his word to be
accomplished,
especially as related to any convenant, or promise, he has made: "He
[who]
causes to be.
O.K. They are your beliefs.
" As a name, however, EHYEH ASHER EHYEH should be rendered with
as either a transliteration, or in a form commonly used by whatever
language
it is rendered into, as are other personal names in Bible translations.
Why do you think that EHYEH ASHER EHYEH is a personal name?
EHYEH is simply a different verb form from YAHWEH; they are both the same
name from different aspects, as the context shows.

Jesus did indeed leave the glory he had with his God and Father (John 17:5)
and became a human being -- nothing more, nothing less. As a sinless human
being, he was prefigured by Adam when Adam before Adam became corrupted.
(Romans 5:14) Never having fallen short of the glory of God, Jesus had the
full crown of glory as a human being. (Romans 3:23) Thus, in him was life, a
life that could be offered in sacrifice for the world of mankind, which
human life he did offer to his God and Father. Jesus is now no longer in the
days of his flesh, and is now the last Adam, the life-giving spirit being (1
Corinthians 15:45), possessing the glory of the heavenly, not the
earthly. -- 1 Corinthians 15:40.
None of this negates that Jesus is the Michael the archangel.
and presented that unto the ONE True G-D, as a holy substitute for the
fallen adam.
and the Hope is Bodily we become like him, not G-D's or even g-ds,
but put on the second Adam.
but then I believe in a bodily ressurection
All resurrections are bodily, whether that body be the glory of the
heavenly, or the earthly. -- 1 Corinthians 15:40.
I am supposing the idea is that bodily resurrection is meant to refer to
Jesus' being resurrected, supposedly with the same body of flesh that he
died with.
Neither the world nor the church will ever again see Jesus in the flesh. Why
not? Because he sacrificed his flesh once for all time. He never takes it
back, nor does he have any reason to take it back. If he should take that
flesh back, then the sacrifice would become void, for in order to completely
fufill the condemnation upon Adam, Jesus' humanity has to be dead forever.
The very purpose of Jesus' becoming flesh was to sacrifice that flesh for
the sin of the
world. Having presented that flesh, his body, in sacrifice after his
ascension, he has no need to ever again become flesh.
The apostle Paul calls attention to the difference between heavenly bodies
and earthly bodies, and declares that they have different glories. (1
Corinthians 15:40) He tells us that the first Adam was made a living soul, a
human being, but that our redeemer, he who came from heaven, who humbled
himself, and took the earthly nature -- "for the suffering of death"
(Hebrews 2:9) -- being foreshadowed by sinless Adam (Romans 5:14), and being
crowned with the earthly glory as was sinless Adam (Psalm 8:5; Hebrews 2:9).
Jesus' body of was prepared by his God, without the taint of sin or
condemnation in Adam. (Hebrews 10:5) But Jesus did not remain flesh, for he
offered his earthly glory, his flesh, his body, in sacrifice for the church
and the world. (John 6:51; Hebrews 10:10; 1 John 2:2) What we need to
remember is what Jesus sacrificed, what he offered to his God, was human
life and all that pertains to it. Jesus did not die for spirit beings; he
died for human beings, the "all" that are dying in Adam. -- 1 Corinthians
15:21,22; Romans 5:12- 19.
John tells us of Jesus that "in him was life, and the life was the light of
men." (John 1:4) What does this mean, that in Jesus, as a human "was life"?
John 9:5 gives us the answer. Since Jesus, unlike Adam, was totally
obedient, his sinless human life offered light to the dying race of mankind.
Thus Jesus said: "As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the
world." (John 9:5, New King James version) The good news is that Jesus came
with a perfect human life that he could offer in sacrifice to his God on
man's behalf in order to atone for the sin of the world. Thus Jesus, while a
man, possessed life, and by his continued obedience brought life and
incorruption to light. (2 Timothy 1:10) Jesus condemned sin in the flesh by
showing that a sinless, incorrupt human can obey God's laws. -- Romans 8:3;
1 Timothy 1:10.
==========
http://atonement.reslight.net/c-s.html
Jesus, as a human, as most know the scriptures say, was without sin. Unlike
dying mankind, Jesus had life, thus in him was life! How thankful we can be
that the great Logos, the Word of God, the only direct living creation of
God, the one through whom all things were made, when the offer was made, and
the "joy set before him," said to his God, "Lo I come (in the volume of the
book it is written of me) to do thy will, 0 God." (John 1:1-3, Diaglott
Literal; Hebrews 10:7; 12:2; Revelation 3:14). The life and personality of
the Logos was then transferred and he became the babe of Bethlehem. "He was
made
flesh and being found in fashion [likeness] as a man [sinful flesh -- Romans
8:3] he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of
the cross [stauros]." - John 1:14; Philippians 2:8; Hebrews 2:14.
Jesus' human body was not prepared from sinful human stock, but Jesus says
of his God: "But a body did you prepare for me." (Hebrews 10:5)
It is thus this sinless human body, having sinless life, that Jesus
willingly offered in sacrifice. (Hebrews 10:10) Yes, in Jesus *was* life --
human life, crowned with the glory of a sinless man, who by sinlessness had
not fallen short of the glory of God. -- Romans 3:23; Hebrews 2:9.
Thus seen, what did Jesus sacrifice?
He gave his humanity -- including his body of flesh -- as an offsetting
price, which sacrifice he formally presented to his God as priest after his
ascension. - - Hebrews 8:4; 9:24-26; 10:10.
1) Jesus gave his blood in sacrifice.
Matthew 26:28 - for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured
out for many for the remission of sins.
Mark 14:24 - He said to them, "This is my blood of the new covenant, which
is poured out for many.
Luke 22:20 - He took the cup in like manner after supper, saying, "This cup
is the new covenant in my blood, that which is poured out for you.
Acts 20:28 - Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy
Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God which he
obtained with the blood of his own Son. - Revised Standard Version.
Romans 5:9 - Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be
saved from God's wrath through him.
Ephesians 1:7 - in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the
forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.
However, what does blood represent? Jesus' human soul, which he also gave in
sacrifice.
Leviticus 17:11 - For the life [Hebrew, nephesh - soul] of the flesh is in
the blood.
Deuteronomy 12:23 - The blood is the life [Hebrew, nephesh - soul].
The human soul consists of the body made from the dust of the ground and the
neshamah, representing the activation of the body by spirit of life as
received from God. -- Genesis 2:7.
2) Yes, Jesus did sacrifice his human body: He thus was not raised as a
human, but as a spirit being, with a spiritual body.
Hebrews 10:10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of
the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:11 Every priest indeed stands day by day ministering and often
offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
Hebrews 10:12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever,
sat down on the right hand of God;
Hebrews 10:13 henceforth expecting until his enemies to be made the
footstool of his feet.
Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are
sanctified.
Luke 22:19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and
gave to them, saying, "This is *my body which is given [as an offering in
sacrifice to God - Ephesians 5:2; Hebrews 9:14] for you*. Do this in memory
of me."
3) Jesus sacrificed his flesh:
John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone
eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give
is my flesh, for the life of the world.
4) Jesus sacrificed his human soul:
Matthew 20:28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve,
and to give his life [soul] as a ransom [price to offset] for many.
Isaiah 53:12 He *poured out his soul* to death, and was numbered with the
transgressors: yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the
transgressors.
He died; he was totally dead, ceased to be sentient, else there has been no
ransom. His body was given in sacrifice. (Hebrews 10:10; Luke 22:19) Jesus'
soul -- his human sentiency -- was given in sacrifice (Ecclesiastes 9:5) and
went into sheol, where there is no work, device, knowledge or wisdom, and
wherein one cannot give thanks to, or praise to, Yahweh. (Isaiah 53:12;
Matthew 20:28; Mark 10:45; Ecclesiastes 9:10; Psalm 6:5; Isaiah 38:18)
Jesus' human blood -- which represents his human soul/being (Leviticus
17:11; Deuteronomy 12:23) -- was given in sacrifice. (Mark 14:24; Acts
20:28; Hebrews 9:14) Thus his soul -- his being -- as raised, made alive,
from the oblivious condition of sheol was no longer human, but spirit, with
a spiritual, not a physical, body.
Once we realize that the human soul consists of the body of flesh activated
by the neshamah, or spirit of life from God (Genesis 2:7), we can see how
Jesus gave his entire humanity in sacrifice; he is no longer in the days of
his flesh, and the world will never again literally see Jesus, either in the
flesh, or in his heavenly glory. -- Hebrews 5:7.

in the corruptable body the Blood contains the life
while the incoruptable body, the spirit contains the life
in the Flesh and bone body.

becomes incorruptable, but being changed, but it is the same
body that has changed

so the Flesh and Blood body takes on a Flesh and bone body.
Paul never says this body which is corruptible must take on incorruption,
although some translators render some of Paul's words to make it appear
that is what he said.
Paul wrote: "For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal
must put on immortality. But when this corruptible will have put on
incorruption, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then what is
written will happen: 'Death is swallowed up in victory.'" (1 Corinthians
15:53,54)
It is somewhat silly to think that God will gather together the same exat
atoms from other bodies or that bodies that died with the same atoms would
have to share those atoms. It is not the body that is raised, but rather the
soul "with" a body, whether that body be spiritual or physical. The question
Paul raised was "*with* what body will they [the dead] be raised?" He never,
ever, says that they will be raised with the body they died in. Indeed, if
the thought was that they are raised with the same body they died with,
there would be no need to raise the question.
Paul shows that the present sowing by the Christian is not sowing the body
that will be, but that the Christian doing the sowing is given, "appointed",
a body as it pleases God. He then goes on to show that there is a heavenly
glory and and earthly glory, a physical body and an earthly body. He
differentiates between these; he does not confound them.
Elsewhere Paul likens the Christian's present body to a "house" or "tent",
which is dissolved:
2 Corinthians 5:1 - For we know that if the earthly house of our tent is
dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands,
eternal, in the heavens.
Does this mean that each Christian already has a body now in the heavens?
Does a Christian, in effect, have two actual bodies, one that is dying here
on earth and another already in heaven that is waiting for him? No, not
literally. However, Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:37,38, Paul says that what is
being sown is given, or more correctly, appointed a body, as a seed that
must die first before what is produced. What that body is will not be seen
until the full growth of the seed is manifested. The sowing, the
development, of that seed into fruit is the developing of the fruit of God's
spirit. (Galatians 5:22,23) Jesus indicates that true Christians will not
all develop the fruit to the same degree, and thus Paul does not answer that
all will be raised with the same kind of body. (Matthew 13:8,23) When a
Christian first accepts Christ, he reckoned, counted, imputed justification
based on faith in the blood of Jesus. The seed planted is not the body, but
what kind of body God gives to that seed is determined by how it is sown. To
each Christian, God gives, or appoints, its own body, whether it turns out
to be a heavenly, spiritual body, or an earthly, physical body. (1
Corinthians 15:37,38) It, the sowing, is now sown in an environment of
corruption, for it must develop while yet in a world and in a body that has
been subjected to corruption. (Romans 8:21) But "it", that which was sown,
will be raised in incorruption, that is, to a point of overcoming in
perfection of faith and love where it will be impossible for such an one to
turn against God, and thus such an one can no longer be hurt by the second
death. (Revelation 2:11) For such overcomers, "it", spoken of in 1
Corinthians 15:44, is not the "body" itself, but "it" is sown first as a
physical body (as appointed by God), that "it" -- that which is being sown,
the new creature in Christ -- may be raised as "a spiritual body." But Paul
adds: "There is a physical body, and there is also a spiritual body". He
does not confound the two, but does indicate that not all will be raised a
"spiritual body", that some will remain on the earthly plane of glory, that
is, to be raised "with" "a physical body".
Paul continues to illustrate this saying: "So also it is written, 'The first
man, Adam, became a living soul.' The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
However, that which is spiritual isn't first, but that which is physical,
then that which is spiritual." (1 Corinthians 15:45,46) He further expands
on the concept of the two "kinds" of bodies received in the resurrection.
When a Christian is first begotten of the spirit, he is given, or appointed,
so to speak, the same standing as the "first Adam", who had an earthly,
physical body, not a heavenly, spiritual body. Jesus, however, is now a
spirit being in heaven, having a spiritual body. Nevertheless, Jesus did
have an earthly, physical sinless body before his death while on earth.
Jesus' was never corrupted, and proved himself incorruptible -- he put on
incorruption. He sacrificed that perfect, sinless body for Adam and the race
in Adam. (Hebrews 10:10) Likewise, with all the new creation in Christ; they
are first justified and appointed sinless life on the physical, earthly
plane, with the hopes of attaining the perfection, the goal or "mark" spoken
of Philippians 3:14, so as to receive the heavenly, spiritual body in the
resurrection.
All, however, whether they receive life with a spiritual or earthly body,
must eventually put on incorruption, prove themselves 100% incorruptible
toward righteousness, before death will be swallowed up in victory. (1
Corinthians 15:54; Isaiah 25:8) Only a few attain such a degree of
incorruptibility in this age, but in the age to come, matters will be
different.

Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God which he
obtained with the blood of his own Son. - Revised Standard Version.
Romans 5:9 - Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be
saved from God's wrath through him.
Ephesians 1:7 - in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the
forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.
However, what does blood represent? Jesus' human soul, which he also gave in
sacrifice.
Leviticus 17:11 - For the life [Hebrew, nephesh - soul] of the flesh is in
the blood.
Deuteronomy 12:23 - The blood is the life [Hebrew, nephesh - soul].
The human soul consists of the body made from the dust of the ground and the
neshamah, representing the activation of the body by spirit of life as
received from God. -- Genesis 2:7.
2) Yes, Jesus did sacrifice his human body: He thus was not raised as a
human, but as a spirit being, with a spiritual body.
Hebrews 10:10 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of
the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:11 Every priest indeed stands day by day ministering and often
offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
Hebrews 10:12 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever,
sat down on the right hand of God;
Hebrews 10:13 henceforth expecting until his enemies to be made the
footstool of his feet.
Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are
sanctified.
Luke 22:19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and
gave to them, saying, "This is *my body which is given [as an offering in
sacrifice to God - Ephesians 5:2; Hebrews 9:14] for you*. Do this in memory
of me."
3) Jesus sacrificed his flesh:
John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone
eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give
is my flesh, for the life of the world.
4) Jesus sacrificed his human soul:
Matthew 20:28 even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve,
and to give his life [soul] as a ransom [price to offset] for many.
Isaiah 53:12 He *poured out his soul* to death, and was numbered with the
transgressors: yet he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the
transgressors.
He died; he was totally dead, ceased to be sentient, else there has been no
ransom. His body was given in sacrifice. (Hebrews 10:10; Luke 22:19) Jesus'
soul -- his human sentiency -- was given in sacrifice (Ecclesiastes 9:5) and
went into sheol, where there is no work, device, knowledge or wisdom, and
wherein one cannot give thanks to, or praise to, Yahweh. (Isaiah 53:12;
Matthew 20:28; Mark 10:45; Ecclesiastes 9:10; Psalm 6:5; Isaiah 38:18)
Jesus' human blood -- which represents his human soul/being (Leviticus
17:11; Deuteronomy 12:23) -- was given in sacrifice. (Mark 14:24; Acts
20:28; Hebrews 9:14) Thus his soul -- his being -- as raised, made alive,
from the oblivious condition of sheol was no longer human, but spirit, with
a spiritual, not a physical, body.
Once we realize that the human soul consists of the body of flesh activated
by the neshamah, or spirit of life from God (Genesis 2:7), we can see how
Jesus gave his entire humanity in sacrifice; he is no longer in the days of
his flesh, and the world will never again literally see Jesus, either in the
flesh, or in his heavenly glory. -- Hebrews 5:7.

Yes, Jesus is not EHYEH. EHYEH (Yahweh) sent Jesus. Jesus could do nothing
of himself, but EHYEH (Yahweh) can. Blessed be the God and Father of the
Lord Jesus!
Yahweh God, by means of his holy spirit, reveals through the scriptures that
Jesus was sent by Yahweh, speaks for Yahweh, represents Yahweh, and was
raised and glorified by the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Jesus never
claimed to be, nor do the scriptures present Jesus as, the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob, whom Jesus represents and speaks for. -- Deuteronomy

Yes, there is no reason to add to the scripture a doctrine that Jesus was
saying that he was EHYEH (Yahweh). Such a doctrine has to be added to and
read into what Jesus said.
Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of

say unto them?
And Elohim said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt
thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Exodus 3:13-14
And the next verse:
Exodus 3:15 God [ELOHIM] said moreover to Moses, "You shall tell the
children of Israel this, 'Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This
is my name forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.
Thus, ELOHIM in these verses is YAHWEH, EHYEH, the God of Abraham, Isaac,
and Jacob -- the same God who raised up Jesus as a prophet like Moses. Moses
in prophecy stated:
Deuteronomy 18:15 Yahweh your God [ELOHIM] will raise up to you a prophet
from the midst of you, of your brothers, like me; to him you shall listen.
Peter applies this prophecy to Jesus, who was to be sent by Yahweh.
Acts 3:18 But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his
prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.
Acts 3:19 Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted
out, that so there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the
Lord [Yahweh],
Acts3:20 and that he [Yahweh] may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for
you before,
Acts 3:21 whom the heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all
things, whereof God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been
from ancient times.
Acts 3:22 For Moses indeed said to the fathers, 'The Lord [Yahweh] God will
raise up a prophet to you from among your brothers, like me. You will listen
to him in all things whatever he says to you.
Acts 3:23 It will be, that every soul that will not listen to that prophet
will be utterly destroyed from among the people.'
Acts 3:24 Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed
after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.
It is this God, Yahweh [EHYEH], that Peter later identifies as the "God and
Father of our Lord Jesus." -- 1 Peter 1:3.
It is this God, Yahweh [EHYEH], that anointed Jesus. -- Isaiah 61:1; Acts
2:36; 10:38.
Jesus is not Yahweh [EHYEH] who anointed him.

"Jesus" is a character in NT and other 1-4 century
literature, invented by creative writers.
His life episodes are largely taken from the life
stories of historical and mythical characters,
primarily from the life of the militant anti-Roman
leader known as "Judas the Galilean".
There is a very good reason why he is still identified as a Galilean,
since the original character and his followers were
Galileans. They are known as the "Fourth Philosophy",
i.e. the Messianist Zealots, who crowned Judas the Galilean
as their king/messiah. -- L.

No, Malachi who prophesied the coming of LORD God [EL YH] before the day of
