One God Report #111) Top Five NT Verses that Show Jesus is NOT God
In this episode we continue our countdown of the top 10 New Testament verses that show that Jesus is NOT God. Verses in this episode include:
(5.5) 1Corinthians 15:21
For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.
5. Acts 17:31
“…because He (God) has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all men by raising him from the dead." (Act 17:31 RSV)
4. Acts 2:22, 36
"Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know…
Let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified."
3. 1 Timothy 2:4-5
God… “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”
2. 1 Corinthians 8:6
Yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all and through whom we exist.
1. John 17:3
“Father….this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.”
Compare John’s purpose statement: John 20:30-31: “Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.”
“Consolation” Verses:
Many verses which declare that God, someone other than Jesus, raised the Lord Jesus from the Dead, e.g.,
1 Cor. 6:14, Romans 10:9
“And God raised the Lord and will also raise us by his power.”
Romans 10:9
“…believe in your heart that God raised him (the Lord Jesus) from the dead”
Acts 5:30
The God of our fathers raised Jesus, whom you killed by hanging him on a tree.
Matthew 24:36
“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.”
John 14:28 (10:29)
“The Father is greater than I”
