Bible Commentary on John 10:36?
814854
Jesus is not the Almighty God.  He never claimed to be and he always refered to someone higher than himself.  He said he came to do that ones will and he never does anything out of his own initiative.  Anyone who claims Jesus to be the Almighty God should go and read the bible again - and very carefully this time.  \n\nJohn17:3 - Jesus sent by God\nJohn14:28 - Father greater\nPhilippians 2: 5-11.  Never made himself equal to God\n\nAnd many other parts...

The Gospel of John was written by a follower of that largest religion, so I don't think you're going to find the hard, unbiased evidence you're looking for there.\n\nIn fact, if you come right down to it, we cannot confirm or deny that Jesus said any of the things attributed to him.\n\nDoes that matter?  No.  What matters is that people BELIEVE he is the Son of God who died, rose, and ascended into heaven.  A philosophy professor of mine always argued that faith and reason do not stand in opposition to one another, nor must they agree.  Rather, they stand apart as coequals, as equally valid ways to finding truth.  He convinced me.

"In the Begining was the Word and the word was with God and the Word was God." John 1:1\n\nStart with the Gospels, read Romans, then probably see where it takes you next...  Study the Bible reference the original language then you get a better feeling of what the writer is really trying to say... A lot is lost in modern translation

I love the book of John.  This passage particularly.  \n\nYou gave me pause with your question however.  I pray daily, but I do not confess daily.  Maybe I should.

Very good!  If more Christians displayed such a sense of humor, we wouldn't have so much trouble with hostilities in this section of Yahoo! Answers, let alone in the rest of the world.  Isn't there plenty of stuff about joy and lightheartedness and so forth in the gospels?  Howcum so many Christians forget that part?

Proverbs 8:22-31 is purely about wisdom.\nIt has nothing to do with jebus.\nAnd by knowing this, this shows what John 1:1 is about - wisdom, not about some guy being born.

It says just the oposite.\n\n                           Matthew 28:19-20\n19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: \n\n 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

The following text is what it's all about for a Chrisitan.\n\n1 John 4\n7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. \n\n13We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. 14And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. 16And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. \n        God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 17In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. 18There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. \n\n19We love because he first loved us. 20If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 21And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.\n\nI have personally seen God work in my life, I have allowed him to lead me since I graduated college, and have ended up where I never would have believed.  He has answered my prayers in the past, he has given me guidance, I have seen him work through friends and family.  He has even graciously given me dreams in which angels have appeared to reaffirm my faith.  I love God, for I know him and know his love for me.\n\nRomans 1:20\nFor since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

I have asked that question many times. Jesus did not say in the the 6th Chapter of John that his words are symbols, They are true body and true blood.

We should encourage each other that the Living Word is that which makes true the words in the Bible and not the other way around. \n\nThe Bible doesn't even point to the Bible. The Bible points to the Lord ... and so when I point to the Bible ... it is not for any other reason except for the highest hope that in there they might be able to focus on Jesus. And with that highest hope, it is now that I will point to the Bible (or actually the lack thereof) to demonstrate what I am talking about.\n\nWhen Saul (who became Paul) was stopped on the road, he was stopped by Jesus Christ the Lord, but this was not the Jesus of the New Testament ... nor the historic Jesus. At that time none of the books of the NT had been written, not even the gospels ... and though Saul had much (if not all) of the OT memorized ... Saul, like the Pharisees of that time, were searching the scriptures in vain, for they had not come to Christ for Life. However, provided that the Lord Jesus revealed many mysteries to Paul, it was then BY FOCUSSING on Jesus ... that we have two-thirds of the scriptures of the New Testament, for Paul only knew the Risen Lord by experience and experience alone.\n\nI am not saying "don't read your Bible."\nI am not saying "don't read your Bible."\nI am not saying "don't read your Bible." (thrice for effect.)\n\nWhat I am saying is that we should NOT underestimate the effect of focussing on Jesus because the nearness of the Lord and the instruction by the Spirit (that leads us to all Truth) is the perspective FROM WHICH the scriptures are written ... and any of us so blessed by the nearness and the instruction might one day find that the Bible reads like a deja vu (spelling?) \n\nWe might find ourselves reading what Paul wrote and saying to ourselves: "That sounds like something that I would have said."\n\nAnd it is to this end ... this highest hope ... that I say AMEN to the Bible, but even more so to the inspiration by which it was written and to which it points - the Risen Lord - the Living Word!

hmmmm, this will be good!!\n\nFor: GINEVRA1WEASLEY, how is he pulling things of contexts when it's from your very own Bible? 32 (Bible) Scholars couldn't get it right and I doubt that you'll be able to get it right..

He....   darn it.  I thought I had the recipe sitting here but I seem to have lost it.\n\nGeez, what kind of question is that any way?\n\nLet's assume for a minute that you are asking about a just a mundane operation like walking from one town to another.  The inclusion of the word "exactly" in a question about a 2000 year old event makes one wonder what your epistemelogical standard is.   \n\nThe quick and the dirty of the situation is, I don't know.  I think it probably did happen though. I'm not a fundementalist, so therefore it's not necessary for the New Testament accounts, in this case the Gospel of John, to be completly inerrant for me to sign on.  They just have to be generally historically accurate, like any other set of historical documents from the time.\n\nSome people's a priori commitment to pure materialism aside, the story seems to be authentic to me.  It has specific details that a good old propaganda story probably wouldn't contain.  Such as Jesus's disagreement with his mother and his consequent quip at her.  And then he actuallly does what she suggested.  Propaganda created from whole cloth would probably contain less contraversy in it.  \n\nThe Gospel of John is actually the New Testament book that we have the earliest documentary evidence of.  Part of it was found in the Nag Hammadi (sp?) library in Egypt and has been dated to about 130 a.d.   That's pretty darn close to the events described compared to most ancient historical documents that are considered authoritative.

Philip one of the disciples ask  Jesus to show them the Father. And Jesus answered him: 'have I been w/ you for just a short time, how come you are asking me to show you the father? Those who have seen me has seen the Father. If you don't believe me, then believe in the WORKS that I did'.\n\nIn short Jesus was telling the disciples that he did what his Father would have done if He came to earth. Just like a son, doing the works of a father--we say: 'like father, like son'.
