Is he God, a god, or a phophet?

Anyone who believes that Jesus was JUST a prophet needs to rethink their ideas.  He stated who he was.  He was either who He said He was, or a liar or crazy.  \n\nHe WAS and IS God in the flesh.  Not a God.  The God.

God plainly and simply the answer is God.\n\nThe heavens declare the glory of God.

Yes I believe in God, but not the way traditional Christians do.  I'm a Gnostic Christian.

Hmm.  I wouldn't say this is a full description, but definitely an important part.  At least of the god that I believe in.  One that wants us to question everything, since that's how we learn.

If there is a god, he is an atheist. He doesn't believe in a higher power.\n\nIf there is a god, he also loves atheists, since we use our brains (given by Him) to analyze His creation, use His rules of logic to test our ideas. We demand evidence for outlandish claims, and reject faith & dogma. \n\nI agree. If a god exists, it would have to favor atheists & humanists.

Well, except that the Egyptian religion is much closer to Hinduism in that beyond the "Trinity" there is a Brahman or higher aspect from which these three are all actually one whereas the Christian Trinity states clearly that there is one God in three Persons. Hinduism and Egyptian religion share this higher concept and reject the idea that the names of the Gods in the Trinity are individual Persons..individual Gods. They are merely reflections of the higher Divine. \n\nI apologize that the name of the higher Egyptian Brahman type eludes me. Let me explain it from Hinduism (since I know the names). I have friends that actually practice the Egyptian religion and have studied it (and I've studied a great deal myself..including reading hieroglyphs).\n\nIn Hinduism there is one God. This one God is called Brahman. It can be thought of as both Nirguna Brahman (without form, name, and attribute) and as Saguna Brahman (with form, name and attribute). Everything in the universe is manifested from Brahman. Brahman is infinite...limitless...without any limits. Brahman is beyond form, name, and attributes and yet it also become form, name, and attributes when it manifested the universe. The problem of course is that it is very difficult to worship the infinite unknown without form, name, and attribute (the word Brahman literally just means "supreme" or "highest"). Hinduism then has the Trimurti or Trinity. Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. Brahma represents Creation, Vishnue represents Preservation, and Shive represents Dissolution. But Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva are NOT seperate from Brahman. They are Brahman! When Hindus worship whatever name and/or form, they are actually worshipping Brahman. The Egyptian religion is the same.\n\nSo................\n\nWhen worshipping the Christian Trinity there is God the Father, Jesus the son, and the Holy Spirit who are all individually unique and to be worshipped....yet all three are God...they are all said to be God. One God in Three Persons. When worshipping Jesus, Jesus is the bridge to God. If you worshipped the Holy Spirit, you are still worshipping God. If you just worship God the Father, you are still just worshiping God. \n\nThere really isn't much of a difference. It often appears on the outside that CHristians seem to be worshipping three Gods, but through theological teachings you realized that there is God who has resided in Heaven (the Father), this God manifests in human form as Jesus, and also interacts with people now through the Holy Spirit. While each are individually identifiable because of their qualities (forms), they are all actually God. Hindus and Egyptians would agree. Hindus go so far as to have avatars or incarnations of God all the time (even today) that they worship and Egyptians often did, too...this was their pharoah.

I believe there is a Goddess and a God. Everything in nature requires balance, so why would the same not be true of God?\n\nPlus, in the OT, when God talks about himself, the original Hebrew text actually in the female form, not male.

To be able to understand what it means would mean that you were God. It is IMPOSSIBLE for a human with a finite mind and a mortal, physical body to even begin to comprehend a multi-faceted God. A God who lives in the past, present and future all at the same time. A God who is everywhere all at the same time and who knows all that there is to know all the time. The Trinity is a mystery but God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are ONE.

god is what it's faithful want it to be. It's the perfect idol. They can carry it, talk to it, offer themselves for judgement, pretend it hears, and pretend to be guided. It has no face or body but its hypothetic son's, has no house but the one people built for it, has no color, race or language but the one people gives to it. No wonder it's uneradicable. You suppress it here and it'll grow stronger there, especially where there is misery. In short: god is a metamorph...

What's the differance? They all point to the same God..

Yes, God has many names. I choose to call him by the one name that sets Him apart from all others...Jesus!

God says He's a jealous God and I imagine He knows more about Himself than I do.\n\nConsider this: God is supreme.  He is GOD.  He wasn't invented by man, or He wouldn't be God.  He is all-knowing when we obviously aren't.  He's all-powerful when we obviously aren't.  He has always existed when we obviously were born not all that long ago.  He is holy and we definitely aren't.  He is GOD and is infinitely more awe-inspiring than we are.  Basically, He is worthy of praise.  He deserves it.  Just like kings and royalty get respect, He should get just as much and more.  He created us, we didn't make ourselves.  So imagine all that; imagine what the word "God" infers.\n\nAnd then read Exodus 20:2-5: "'Iam the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.  You shall have no other gods before Me.  You shall not make for yourself a carved image...you shall not bow down to them nor serve them.  For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God...."  \n\nIf God is really God, He has some claims on us.  Because we are not God.  We are His creation.  And one of those claims He has on us is that we worship His awesomeness.  I mean, imagine your favorite singer, actor, writer, athlete, and then imagine you trying to tell the media that, no, YOU are better than this person when obviously you stink next to their talent!  That is how we act as humans most of the time.  We don't give God His due.  And He has a right to be jealous.  Don't know if that answers your question, but that kind of jealousy is righteous.  Ours is petty.
