  1. Hello everyone, Just came across this site while doing some research and reading. And I'd like to discuss the items that were stated here. Please correct me if I unintentionally break any forum rules. I'd like to start a dialog with two verses. John 5:16 So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him. In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.” For this reason they tried all the more to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. - The Jews knew exactly what He meant... John 10:30 I and the Father are one. Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?” “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.” -They understood his claim for being God and were trying to stone him for it. My question to this is... Was Jesus lying? Jesus was both 100% God and 100% man. Jesus knew hunger John 4:6 (being a man) but also knew thoughts of men as God would Matthew 9:4 (also pointing out the Jesus forgives sins, the Jews knew exactly what he meant by this and said he was blaspheming, for only God forgives sins. But then Jesus proves what he said by healing the man) These are just 2 examples of Jesus being God and just from the book of John. As for the humanity and Godhead of Jesus. I can provide more examples. Looking forward to a reply, Sincerely, CH
