Three person God identified in the Bible?

[Cooper]

And, going back to what I said in response to that: We are created in the image of God, of course, but that does not include our bodies (because God didn't have a body when he created us) and certainly includes many more things than soul and spirit.

God is three persons, we are not. If God is tripartite, then he is divisible--it takes all three to be the one God and if one part is missing, he is no longer God.

Every post you make is in denial of Christ's deity, and you call yourself a Christian. I tried to put you on ignore, but it will not allow me...

So, God has a body?

When he ate with Abraham he did.

If that’s what you think, then you have understood very little of what I said. I have consistently been very clear that Jesus is God, that that is one of the very reasons for the doctrine of the Trinity. I think I even clarified that for you previously.

Sure, when he came down (likely the pre-incarnate Christ), but as he even at that time existed in and of himself, as he existed for eternity past, he didn't have a body.

How do you know that God didn't have a body when He created us? "Then God said, “Let us make humans in our image, according to our likeness..." Genesis 1:26a That implies that God did have a body.

Not really. God is spirit (John 4:24) and Jesus said that "a spirit does not have flesh and bones" (Luke 24:39). There are many ways in which we are created in God's image, but our bodies are not one of them.

The Almighty who walked and talked with the two persons Adam and Eve in the Garden is both man and God.

Only God can forgive our sins, but to do that, He had to become man to take our sins upon himself and die in our room and stead. He even took on the image of a man in the Old Testament when he spoke to Abraham, but you don't believe it. He took on the image of a man again on the road to Emmaus, after he rose from the dead, but you don't believe it.

Your sentence contradicts itself.

I don't believe what, exactly?

This is a blatant misrepresentation of my position and a violation of the ToS. I strongly recommend you go back through this thread and read what I've written.

It's fine, there is no contradiction. That God, or perhaps better, the Son of God, could manifest in the flesh for a moment in time does not contradict the fact that God has always been spirit and existed without a body for eternity past, up until the Son actually became a man.

Jesus was speaking about himself when he said that, he did have flesh and bones

1) We also know that a father is never his own son nor a son his own father. It is irrational to believe otherwise, even when it is applied to God.

2) We should also make sure we're praising the God of the Bible, otherwise it's idolatry.

3) So, God has a body?

Yes, but that doesn't negate the truth of what he said, that "a spirit does not have flesh and bones."

Simply posting things like this doesn't help anything. What do you think these things say? Why did I post them? I don't see what these have to do with the post you quoted.

My intent is to show Jesus and the Father as two distinct persons. Not define the trinity. You were asking about the Father and thrones. I showed that Jesus has a place on His Fathers throne. The Father did not give His throne away. He is God and is the one depicted on the throne as you read in revelation. You then asked for references on what I posted . I gave those references.

Its clear to me and many others that the Father is not the Son and the Son is not the Father. My intent to show this doesn't seem to satisfy you but I rest my case.

Honestly, I was confused which thread I was in.

I see your point now.

You told me to go back over what you had posted. See #569.

That was the Son. God the Son.

That’s true, however I don’t think Free is denying the divinity of Christ.


What makes you believe he does?

Conclusion: Jesus is not "God with us."

A constant theme and a denial of Christ's divinity.
