How Could Jesus be God if He was Seen by Man?

First, it ignores the fact that man only saw Jesus (?the Word??John 1:1) after ?the Word became flesh and dwelt among us? (John 1:14). He came in a veiled form. No human has ever seen Jesus in His true image (i.e., as a spirit Being?John 4:24?in all His glory and splendor). In his letter to the church at Philippi, the apostle Paul mentioned that Christ?Who had existed in heaven ?in the form of God???made Himself of no reputation,? and took on the ?likeness of men? (Philippians 2:6-7). Men saw an embodiment of God as Jesus dwelt here in a fleshly form. Men saw ?the Word? that ?became flesh.? But no one has ever seen God?s true, complete image (as a spirit Being).

Jesus is the Son of God.
God sent his holy Son to pay for our Sins so that we may be saved.
John 3:16.

Jesus isn't God. Jesus is God's son. There is a trinity, The Father, The Son, & The Holy Spirit.

I've explained this a million times already so one just gonna give a short answer.
The trinity is bogus, impossible, and pure nonsense. Any logical person knows this already.

Everyone has their own beliefs. But in the end who's loss will it be. One or the other. Nobody knows, yall. You have to rely on your faith. Like the Polar Express says, seeing isnt believing.

Report as
What do you mean you believe what I believe in? I'm an atheist and you are clearly christian so you can't be talking about religious beliefs. I don't know what your talking about.
Report as
More love to the question? I don't get that either. I said I've explained this a bunch of times already so that's why I didn't feel like going into detail.

We don't have to disagree on everything..
Report as
Yes and we probably don't disagree on everything. However, in this religion section, we will disagree on nearly everything.

So you love being with people that you disagree on everything...why aren't you with atheists...I know that you love being around Christians it makes you feel safe...

I don't know how you could have possibly come to that conclusion or why you would assume that?

Why ask silly questions? Try reading the new Testament! You will not find one place where Jesus proclaimed, I am God! You are not a Christian are you?!

Hi
I'm not a Christian, but it is our faith that Christ is God. Jesus, I exhort you also do not doubt that.

If you believe in the Trinity, and a lot of religions don't, God is in three different forms. God the Father, God the Son, (Jesus), and God the Holy Spirit, but they are all God.

Allah says :

( 116 ) And [beware the Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah?'" He will say, "Exalted are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.

( 117 ) I said not to them except what You commanded me - to worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. And I was a witness over them as long as I was among them; but when You took me up, You were the Observer over them, and You are, over all things, Witness.

( 118 ) If You should punish them - indeed they are Your servants; but if You forgive them - indeed it is You who is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

( 119 ) Allah will say, "This is the Day when the truthful will benefit from their truthfulness." For them are gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide forever, Allah being pleased with them, and they with Him. That is the great attainment.
Quran (5:116-119)

Jesus was physically human. The body was just a vessel that held the spirit of God. The body could be looked upon as any other human. The only diff was that he was born without the sin nature inherent in all other humans and God was in him. God also sat in heaven because He is GOD. He is not constrained or restrained by human limitations like space, time and physics as humans are.
Actually Levite priests were alliwed to look upon the Glory of God but onky behind the Veil in the inner room of the temple and only after and extensive set of rituals and sacrifices. No other human has been able to look upon the full Glory.
Its difficult to further understand the point you are trying to get across.
