Jesus is a Sinless Man, Not God! 

"Jesus is a man, and God is God."

A Different Approach!

We are commanded to “Rightly divide the word” (2 Tim 2:15), and to “Shun the traditions of men” (Col 2:8). Do you have the fortitude to do just that, especially when examining the doctrine of the Trinity?

My unorthodox approach will show how the Trinity doctrine lacks scriptural support. If it seemed to have solved the nature of God theologically, it has failed scripturally and logically. 

My interest and, hopefully, yours, is to discover what God is saying, not what a system of theology says! Although the scriptures are profoundly deep, they are equally plain and simple to understand if we allow His Spirit and reason to guide us. 

..............................

Do not confuse Jesus with God!

Those who think God can become a man (one God in 3 persons) need to do some serious thinking, perhaps by observing keenly God's natural wonders to gain a proper perspective of who He really is!

Once you can actually see that God can NEVER be a man, you will see the Trinity doctrine for what it is: Unscriptural and illogical! One reason why God cannot be a man is this passage!

“And according to the law, almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.” (Hebrews 9:22)

I hope you caught it? If our salvation hinged on "The shedding of blood," then whose blood was offered? To say it was God's is really beyond silly! 

God's law demanded a sacrifice of a real human, with no prior existence, with real flesh and blood. It cannot be God, for He is "SPIRIT," and spirit couldn't die because "God cannot die," even if He wanted to! (1 Tim 6:16)

What was God's solution? He provided the sacrificial human Son (Gen 3:15), whom the whole law and the prophets pointed to. Jesus' life equalled Adam's. 

Why did it have to be Jesus? Because he was the ONLY candidate for a "life for life" law ruling. The blood of a sinless man, who never preexisted, was the only way to atone for Adam's lost life. 

Neither God, nor an angel, nor a pre-existing son, nor an Adamic man could have done it. Only Jesus could.

No matter how you spin it, theologically or philosophically, God the Creator Spirit Almighty could not be the one sacrificed in Adam's place! (See Gen 9:6; Deut 19:21)

Could God Become a Man?

God cannot be anyone else but God! You cannot say that God the Son stripped himself of all his powers to become human! This is nonsense and unscriptural. See the article: How did Jesus empty himself?

Below are important scriptures that make it scripturally and technically impossible for God to be a "man."

God is only One, not three in one!

“And Jesus answered…Hear O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.” (Mark 12:29). 

..............................

God Never Changes!

“The Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

 (James 1:17)

..............................

God's Glory is Sovereign

“I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another.” (Isa 42:8). 

..............................

God is not a Man!

“God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent” (Num 23:19). 

..............................

God does not die!

“Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise.” (1 Tim 6:16)

..............................

God can not be tempted 

“God cannot be tempted with evil.” (James 1:13). 

..............................

God Never Seen!

“Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me and live.” (Ex 33:20) 

“Who (God), no man can approach...no man hath seen, nor can see.” (1 Tim 6:16). 

“No man hath seen God at any time.” (John 1:18).

..............................

God Is Unequalled!

“I am God, and there is no one like Me.” (Isa 46:9 ) 

“Before Me, there was no God formed, And there will be none after Me.” (Isa 43:10)

"The Man Jesus Christ"

1 Timothy 2:5

Though Jesus has been in heaven, the apostle still called him, "The MAN Jesus Christ." (1 Tim 2:5) Why not call him "The God Jesus?" It's indeed a paradox. I will let you chew on it for a while.

If "The man Jesus Christ" is not coequal and coeternal with the Father, what is he then? I will tell you. Jesus SHARES or PARTAKES of God's "divine nature." The special UNION between God and Christ, which they call the trinity, is not exclusive after all. 

God desired that all true believers also "be one" with Him, as He and the Son are one. The forerunner to receive this union is Jesus, and after him, true believers. Through Christ, true believers are granted to share in the same "divine nature" of God.

I'm fully aware that advanced theology doesn't agree with this. What matters to me, and hopefully you, is the plain and simple statements by Jesus and his apostles.

"He has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire." (2 Pet 1:4 ESV)

"That they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us." (John 17:21 ESV) 

The Dark Side of the Trinity!

The trinity doctrine darkens the truth about God and His Son. It is a doctrine of "deceiving spirits" (1 Tim 4:1) masquerading as "angels of light and righteousness" (2 Cor 11:14-15). It may very well be an "antichrist" doctrine (Compare 2 John 1:7). The "trinity" is nothing more than theology on paper without any scriptural support. 

Portraying God as a human diminishes His glory. It is a serious matter, whether knowing it or not!

If you "love the truth of God" as revealed in the scriptures contextually, you won't be easily deluded by deceiving doctrines. The trinity is not an easy doctrine to shake off. It might, just might be one of these "strong delusions" that God permits in the churches to see whether we hear Christ's voice or man's? (See 2 Thess 2:10)

So, what will you believe? Theology or the truth of God as revealed in the Scriptures? I pray you choose the latter.
