Did you not see my previous post?
I did and it proved nothing
He said He and the Father are one.
John 10:30 "I (Jesus) and the Father are One." This verse is severely misunderstood and is taken out of context,
These verses prove only that Jesus and the Father are one in that no man can pluck the sheep out of either's hand. Father is holding something in his hand and son is also holding something and no one can pull it of of eithers hand , are the father and son the same person ?
It does not at all state that Jesus is God's equal in everything. In fact the words of Jesus,
" My Father, who gave them me is Greater than ALL...," in
John 10:29 completely negates this claim, otherwise we are left with a contradiction just a sentence apart.
29 Jesus says the Father is greater than ALL, this obviously includes Jesus since he is not the Father. So therefore how you try and assume that this verse shows equality between Jesus and the Father is beyond me.In fact this is not the first time that Jesus says the Father is greater than him, he does it again later:
28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I (John 14:28)
So here we once again have Jesus claiming the Father is greater than him, so how is Jesus equal to the Father when Jesus says the contrary?
However so what did Jesus mean in John 10 when Jesus said the Father is greater than ALL? Jesus placed himself in the category of ALL people,
1-The fact is that the Bible shows that the Father is greater than Jesus in essence, the Father is all-knowing and Jesus is not.
2-The Father gives Jesus everything from miracle to doctrine.
3-Jesus begs the Father to save him, obviously showing that life and death is controlled by the Father and NOT Jesus.
He said that those who have seen Him have seen the Father.
The Bible says:
"No man hath seen God at any time," John 1:18
Again watch reason 8 in the video
[09:20]Reason #08 - No one has seen God!
He said He will judge the nations.
.
Jesus does everything according to will of the God, for instance Jesus does not do things according to what he thinks or feels, rather he does things which is in line with God's will. So when Jesus does judge the people, Jesus judges the people in line with God's will, not his own, as Jesus himself says:
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because
I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. (John 5:30)
So when Jesus Judges the people, he judges them not according to his own judgement, rather he judges the people according to God's will. Hence you can already see that it is already God who is in real control, not Jesus, because Jesus simply judges on God's will. For instance in Islam we believe the prophet Muhammad will intercede for the believers, yet the prophet Muhammad is given the right to intercede, and he can only intercede for those who have been given permission to be interceded for, and those who can be saved by his intercession can only be saved by God's will and permission, hence in reality all the power of intercession is in God's hand, the prophet Muhammad is simply having the honour and blessing of carrying the task out.
The same goes for Jesus, he will be judge, but he is given the right to judge, and he can only judge those who have been given permission to be judged by God, and his judgement cannot be his own personal judgement but rather must be in line with God's will, hence in reality all judgement is with God and not with Jesus. This is exactly why Jesus said the following:
I judge no man. (John 8:15)
How can Jesus judge no man when he says he will judge people? Is this a contradiction? Not really, the reason he says he judges no man is because of the explanation I gave above, it all fits the picture. Yes, Jesus will judge people, but he is given permission to judge, it is not his own right and power, and on top of that Jesus will judge people according to God's will, not his own, hence in reality all judgement is with God, not Jesus, and this is precisely why Jesus eventually says he judges no man.
