Default We Proved Christ

Conclusion: if you can't find a single fault with Jesus being God, then there is only one option that is reasonable, to come to the cross as a helpless sinner to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior.

But we can find many faults. Therefore the only option is to reject the stories about Jesus as unhistorical.

Sorry to be pedantic, but the OP reads more like a premise than a conclusion.

But you have to concede that by posting the thread ten times, he added considerable weight to his premise!

Maybe everybody should post their replies in all 8 threads?

Also eta: SfG, what exactly does this thread have to do with Biblical Criticism and History?

-M

eta: Other threads are gone now. Thanks mods.

Wow, after all my years of careful study of evolutionary biology, I now want to reject all that science has found and embrace the jewish carpenter god king because it was posted 8 times here.

Anything posted 8 times must be true.

Jesus lied.

John 7:8,10"Go to the feast yourselves,I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet come. So saying he remained in Galilee. But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private."

Note that Jesus said without qualification, that he was NOT going up to the feast.

Titus 1:2...which God, who never lies, promised ages ago

Argument 1

God never lies

Jesus lied

Therefore Jesus is not God

Argument 2

Lying is a sin

Jesus lied

Jesus is not sinless.

If Jesus is not sinless, then by your own argument he cannot be the Saviour of the world.

I think a mod should move these threads that SfG is starting. They have nothing to do with BC&H whatsoever.

Jesus who? Where is this evidence for the particular Jesus that you're referencing? Can you explain what you mean by finding a fault with Jesus being God? Are you asking if we think this is problematic?
