You've got it mixed up. This is the actual scripture:\n\nFor God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.\n\nNowhere does it say God killed Jesus.\n\nGod gave his Son to the people to show His eternal Love for us. \n\nThe misguided people killed Jesus.

Lazarus was not a disciple.  He was the brother of Mary and Martha and a friend of Jesus.  Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead.\nMost people believe that John was "the disciple that Jesus loved".\nIf you could update your question, would you please reference the passage, and indicate which version of the Bible you are referring to?

Don't worry your little head over it, they said the same thing about 6/6/66. It ain't gonna happen, all date setting is useless. The Father Only, had this information, during the Incarnation of Jesus. He kept it in His Own Power & Devine Knowledge till Jesus returned to Heaven & once again took His Seat as God. The Bible says, "He willingly laid aside His Godhood, not thinking It to be something to hold on to. So He could taste Death for every man. Having done so He returned to Heaven, and we know Him no more after the flesh." He took up His Godhood, and now when He returns, He comes back as God Almighty. No man will be able to hurt Him as they did 2,000 years ago. He will slay 200,000,000 with the Sword of His Mouth (His Word) and split the Mount of Olives in two when He arrives at Jerusalem, after Armageddon is finished. Then the Jews will recognize Him as Messiah,  "When they look upon Him Whom they pierced." The nimber 666 is the numerical value of the name of a man who will become the anti-christ. There are 3 things that will be used in the anti-christ kingdom for people that wish to buy or sell. 1. His Mark (currently unknown) 2. His name (currently unknown) 3. The number of his name (666 currently all we know of the anti-christ) The Scriptures call him "the king of the North" "the Assyrian, the oppressor of God's People." This points to modern day Syria, it is due North of Jerusalem. Keep your eyes on Syria, I think the anti-christ will prove the Scriptures Right once again. By the way, God's Name adds up to 777 & Jesus adds up to 888. God's being Perfect Completeness & Jesus' being the number of New Beginnings. 6,000 yrs from Adam, 1,000 yrs for the Millinium equals 7,000 years. Eternity begins at the end of Jesus' 1,000 year Reign. God Bless, Pastor "B"

Mainstream Bible scholars don't believe the book of John was written by the apostle John, or that Jesus actually said the things "John" claims Jesus said. Given all that, I wouldn't waste time trying to interpret it. It is just the opinion of some anonymous guy 2000 years ago. I prefer to trust my own Life experience.

Matthew 27:43. Read and Study this. Jesus is the Son of God. The Son of God  IS  synonomous with "The Word"  This  is  what  The Son of God means, it means "The Word" Jn 1:1\n\n   AND  Jesus  did  say,  "Before  Abraham  existed,  " I  AM ' !"\n \n"I  AM"  was the name God/YHWH  gave to Moses to give to God's people.  When Moses asked God,    God/YHWH  Said  to \nMoses, tell  My people  that  "I AM"  has  sent  you.\n  \n\nBefore  Abraham existed, Jesus existed with His Father, YHWH\nas "THE  WORD".  which  became flesh.  Jesus is  "I AM".\n\n\nYou  can  choose  to believe  the old testament (The Tanak=Scriptures of the Jews),  and the new testament, &  the words of Jesus, both which speak only the Truth,   or  you  can  choose to reject it.\n\nP.S -  Jesus is not an image, God did not 'create' an image of Himself,  Jesus  is the  incarnation  of  God.\n\n"In the beginning was "The Word" and "The Word" was with God, and "The Word" was God.    And  "The Word" was made flesh, was incarnated, and dwelt amoung mankind and mankind beheld His Glory.   "The Word" that became flesh, was given the name Jesus, Immanuel which means "God With us"\n\nI have studied in hundreds of texts, Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic.  And well as many many Hebrew-Greek Concordances of the Bible, Studied the History of the Bible and the History of the Christian Church.  Over 40 years of studying.\nI do not claim perfection.\n\nBut the incarnation is God becoming flesh,  "The Word" becoming flesh,  Jesus,  is  NO  doubt the Truth !!\nJesus, in His own words said He is the Great "I AM"\nAnd many Apostles were put to death because of this strong unwavering belief, including the Apostle Paul.\n\nIt is your choice to believe the Truth or not.\n\nEvery human being, including yourself has  Free Will !!

Jhn 1:41  He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. \n\n\n Jhn 1:42  And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone. \n\n\n Jhn 1:43 ¶ The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me. \n\n\n Jhn 1:44  Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. \n\n\n Jhn 1:45  Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. \n\n\n Jhn 1:46  And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see. \n\n\n Jhn 1:47  Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! \n\n\n Jhn 1:48  Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. \n\n\n Jhn 1:49  Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel. \n\n\n Jhn 1:50  Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. \n\n\n Jhn 1:51  And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man. \n\nBelow is an article excerpted from this Web site:\nhttp://crossroadspc.org/thebarrel/2000_01_16.html\n\nOur approach to this passage will hinge our understanding of Jesus' words to Nathaniel. In the past some scholars have distorted this story by presenting Jesus ability to see Nathaniel sitting under a fig tree as the exercise of omniscience of his deity. That is he literally saw Nathaniel, even through the man was physically hidden from sight. This may have been true but I would like us to consider another more likely scenario. Rather than exercising his divine attributes Jesus was demonstrating his human ability to read people and draw conclusions about them based on his observations.\n\nhttp://www.ccel.org/bible/phillips/CN170-START.htm

An Aramaic scholar tells me that nowhere in the original texts of the Bible [written in Aramaic, soon after Jesus was crucified] was it mentioned that Jesus [or anyone else, for that matter !] said that he is the Son of God.\n...Jesus actually said 'WE are the CHILDREN of God' - to imply that all human beings are equal in God's eyes.\n...But in subsequent translations, the intepreters [who already had the setting-up of a powerful religion in their minds] conveniently changed Jesus' statement from the plural to the singular. And [male chauvinists, all !] corrected the gender-neutral 'children' into 'son(s)' as well !\n...If we take Jesus' own words [spoken in Aramaic] into account, then all of humanity [including Jesus !] will be children of God.\n...But, several people [including even some christians] found it [and still find it] difficult to digest the mis-translated statement that Jesus himself claimed that he alone was the 'son of God' !\n...From the overall image that one has of Jesus, he comes through as a thorough gentleman - who cannot really be associated with mouthing such 'tall claims' !\nThose are the handiwork of Jesus' 2nd, 3rd and 4th generations of 'followers' - who needed such crudities as 'prop's for their 'campaigns' !

Let's get one thing straight. The verses you quoted were statements made by Jesus; not Almighty God. The trinity doctrine that is widely taught in Christendom is really throwing you off. When Jesus is making these statements he's humbly acknowledging that in fact the "father" is greater than him. This is further reiterated in John 14:28. Why would almighty God who knows all things would not know for instance the day of Judgment?_Psalms 83:18 Notice that the scripture that you quoted (Mark 13:2) says in the 2nd part of the verse:"neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but the "Father." Again this stresses that Jesus or the Son of God doesn't know the day, but his FATHER would know. Clearly this shows that Jehovah God and Jesus are two different people and that this shows a distinction between them. If Jesus and God were the same wouldn't Jesus know the day of Judgement too?\nThe many other statements that Jesus makes further show that he is not equal to his father._Philippians 2:6: "who, although he was existing in God's form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God."_1 Corinthians 11:3, John 20:17. Similiarly, no son is equal to his father or the same as him. Sure they may look alike, talk, or act alike but you recognize them as two separate entities not combined in one. In John 5:19 Jesus makes it clear that he doesn't do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. Also whatever that One does he also does in like manner.\nAfter reasoning from the scriptures you can conclude that from your statements above, Jesus was not only recognizing his father as greater than he was but was giving his father praise and honor by giving him the credit. You can also conlcude that if you read the Bible nodenominationally you would not come to the conclusion that God is part of a trinity which is contradicted in the scriptures. Instead Christ is "one" with God (not literally) in that they are always in harmony with each other just like a husband and wife were to be one as in united together._Genesis 2:24. The trinity really blurs the relationship between God and Jesus and is a source of confusion for many.

Answer is quite long so hope that u will read it. \nU are MISINTERPRETING Jesus' meaning in this passage since a sound rule of exegesis is to interpret scripture in light of scripture. Once this is done, we discover the true meaning of Jesus' words:\n\n"The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 'If you are the Son of God,' he said, 'throw yourself down from here. For it is written: "He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."'\nJesus answered, 'It says: "Do not put the Lord your God to the test."'" Luke 4:9-12\n\nIn light of this passage, Jesus was not telling his followers to go around picking up snakes or drinking poison. Christ's point was that no matter what the enemy tries to do in thwarting the efforts of the believers, he will never succeed. This is based solely on the promises of Christ that his authority rests upon all true believers to accomplish his will in our lives:\n\n"'The seventy-two returned with joy and said, 'Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.' He replied, 'I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.'" Luke 10:17-20 \n\nThe Holy Bible proceeds to document how Jesus' promises in Mark 16 were fulfilled in the lives of true believers:\n\n"When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language. Utterly amazed, they asked: 'Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs-we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!' Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, 'What does this mean?'" Acts 2:1-12\n\n"The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon's Colonnade. No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people. Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter's shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed." Acts 5:12-16\n\n"God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them. Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, 'In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.' Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. [One day] the evi

So if the followers of Jesus (pbuh) considered God to be their "Father," then how did they regard Jesus? \n\n"And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet." Matthew 14:5 (compare with Matthew 21:26) \n\n"And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee." Matthew 21:11 \n\n"But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet." Matthew 21:46 \n\n"And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:" Luke 24:19 \n\n"The woman sayest unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet." John 4:19 \n\n"Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world." John 6:14 \n\n"Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet." John 7:40 \n\n"And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people." Luke 7:16 \n\n"They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet." John 9:17 \n\nIndeed, how did Jesus himself describe himself? Let us read: \n\n"Nevertheless I (Jesus) must walk to day, and to morrow, and the [day] following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem." Luke 13:33 \n\nAnd they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. Matthew 13:57, Mark 6:4, Luke 4:24, John 4:43 \n\nThis is once again confirmed in the noble Qur'an: \n\n«"And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! Verily! I am the messenger of Allah unto you, confirming that which was [revealed] before me in the Torah"» The noble Qur'an, Al-Saf (61):6

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. \n\nJohn 10:28-29 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.

hee hee - no don't think so! In the bible visions always come as a response to a difficult time - the Christians were being persecuted in a big way so God gave John these visions to say to these persecuted Christians "Look, its all going to be sorted out - keep trusting" (i paraphrase, obviously!)
