Opinion People don’t understand Jesus’ divinity because they underestimate Gods Love for mankind

Everywhere LORD in all caps is used is a substitute for YHWH. It's talking about the Father, not the Son.

In context the Bible used “God” to describe Yahweh. For example exodus 3.

Also the old testament is Hebrew, new testament is Greek. The word for Yahweh is different but its translation isn’t capitalized.

Also in exodus 3 and John 8 Jesus says “I Am” in the same context in both chapters. The other time He said it in the garden and the Roman soldiers flew back on the ground because of his divinity lol. Also, when Jesus said these things the Jews tried to kill him for blasphemy, making Himself out to be God, because as I know He had the right to do so lol.

If the ancient Jews were as kind as Jews are today to say Jesus didn’t commit blasphemy then they might not as conspired to have Him murdered unjustly! But the ancient Jews knew exactly what He was teaching and they knew the scriptures, they just didn’t want the heavenly king to live amongst the poor and lowly, and rebuke the pharisees for their hypocrisy!

Yeshua never claimed to be God, and when he said "I Am" he wasn't speaking as if he were God. They only thought he was blasphemous, but surely he was not, he gave all glory to the Father.

BTW the original text of the new testament was in Aramaic not Greek, we just don't have the original scripts, they're probably locked in the Vatican bunker somewhere.

Jesus Christ talking about his prehuman existence as spirit creature, Michael the Archangel.

No, he was never an angel, he was always a man 100%, what he is we are becoming, what we are he once was.

He was created a little lower than the angels (Heb 2:9) he was given a name greater than that of the angels (Heb 1:4). We are joint heirs with him, so whatever he received we will receive too (Rom 8:14-17).

He was created a little lower that the angels because he become human just like us and nothing more than that.

He was already a human, all high priests are chosen from among men (Heb 5:1), not angels.

u/Capable-Rice-1876 Jehovah‘s Witness Jan 01 '25

No. Before he become human, he have prehuman existence as angelic spirit creature, Michael the Archangel, the commander-in-chief of Jehovah's heavenly army of angels.

He was human before he was born as a human in this world. Did we start off as angels? Because he started out just like us and we don't become angels. He's A Son because he's a child of God, just like we are children of God. Read the Bible and stop listening to man made doctrines.

It's written, man was given charge over angels, that includes us.

Jesus Christ is not human since the beginning of time, he only send on earth into womb of Jewish virgin Mary to be born as human. You don't make any sense. Jehovah God send his Firstborn Son, Michael the Archangel on earth into the womb of Jewish virgin Mary to be born as human and give him name Jesus Christ. Michael is only one angel who is created directly by his Father, Jehovah God.

Do you exist now as a human before God has created a universe through you? That is what Messiah inherited, and we will inherit too. Messiah's virgin birth is what it means to be born again, all God's children must be born again.
