what do you have you to say on this incidence?

One story about Jesus in the bible that is confusing and incoherent is the story of the fig tree. Matthew 21:18-19 states, "Early in the morning, as Jesus was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, “May you never bear fruit again!” Immediately the tree withered."

1. Jesus was hungry (God hungry?)

2. He cursed the fig tree because it wasn't bearing fruit.
A). God didn't know the tree didn't have fruit
B). He cursed a perfectly good tree that was only conforming to its nature to bear fruit in the season God designed it to.

3. The Human nature of Jesus overrode his divine nature and cursed the tree.

For me 3 is an incredibly huge problem. His "divine" nature did not stop his human nature from curse.

Plz avoid your emotions while answering and reasoning this out. plz.
 
The essential uses of the name of God the Father in the New Testament are Theos (θεός the Greek term for God), Kyrios (i.e. Lord in Greek) and Patēr (πατήρ i.e. Father in Greek). The Aramaic word "Abba" (אבא), meaning "Father" is used by Jesus in Mark 14:36 and also appears in Romans 8:15 and Galatians 4:6.

I have not comprehend fully to your position, but I can add this,

Believing that Jesus was God it bcomes a dogmatic belief that cant be proved intellectually or even Biblically. Let me give you three things to show clearly that aworshipping of false god. 1. A tempted god by a Devil can never be God according to the Bible.

2. A dead god is a false god as God is Immortal and can never taste death for a second talkless of three days and three nights. 3. God is not a Man or Son of a Man and no eyes has ever seen him according to the Bible.Moreover,it is written in the Bible thus:"A curse is on a man who is hanged on a gibbet" Are you serving an Accursed god? Are these things truly stated in the Bible that pple believe as their Holy Book.

If anyone tries to tell you that Jesus is not God in the flesh close your ears because anyone who believes that blasphemy will not enter into Heaven. Jesus said if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins. If Jesus wasn’t God how could He die for our sins?

Not only your sins or my sins, but everyone in the whole world. God said that He is the only Savior. Can God lie? Scripture clearly says there is only one God so you must believe the Trinity. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are 3 divine persons in one.

These Bible verses are to show and prove that Jesus is God unlike what the Mormons teach. The Pharisees were angered because Jesus claimed to be God. If you claim Jesus is not God what makes you different from the Pharisees?

“Jesus is the only God who has a date in history.”

“Jesus Christ God’s Son died for me. Jesus rose from the grave for me, Jesus represents me, Jesus is for me. Jesus will raise me when I die. Your gods body or your religious body that you worship is still in the grave for he or she is not God. Only Jesus God’s Son is God. Worship Him.

“Jesus was God in the form of man. That’s hard for people to swallow that, even today, that “He was God.” That’s what He was. He wasn’t nothing less than God. He was God manifested in flesh.”

“If Jesus is not God, then there is no Christianity, and we who worship Him are nothing more than idolaters. Conversely, if He is God, those who say He was merely a good man, or even the best of men, are blasphemers. More serious still, if He is not God, then He is a blasphemer in the fullest sense of the word. If He is not God, He is not even good.” J. Oswald Sanders

“We tend to focus our attention at Christmas on the infancy of Christ. The greater truth of the holiday is His deity. More astonishing than a baby in the manger is the truth that this promised baby is the omnipotent Creator of the heavens and the earth!” John F. MacArthur

“If Jesus Christ is not true God, how could he help us? If he is not true man, how could he help us?” — Dietrich Bonhoeffer

“Jesus Christ is God in human flesh, and the story of His life, death, and resurrection is the only Good News the world will ever hear.” Billy Graham

“Either Jesus is the Son of God ; or a madman or worse. But His being just a great teacher? He’s not left that open to us.” C.S. Lewis

“The deity of Christ is the key doctrine of the scriptures. Reject it, and the Bible becomes a jumble of words without any unifying theme. Accept it, and the Bible becomes an intelligible and ordered revelation of God in the person of Jesus Christ.” J. Oswald Sanders

“Only by being both deity and humanity could Jesus Christ bridge the gap between where God is.” — David Jeremiah

“To see what God is like, we must look at Jesus. He perfectly represents God to men in a form which they can see and know and understand.” — William Barclay

“Touching His human nature, Jesus is no longer present with us. Touching his Divine nature, He is never absent from us.” — R.C. Sproul

“God’s nature is revealed most perfectly in the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, as recorded in the New Testament of the Bible, who was sent by God to reveal the divine nature, summarized in ‘God is Love.’” — George F. R. Ellis

What does the Bible say about Jesus being God?

1. John 10:30 “The Father and I are one.”

2. Philippians 2:5-6 “You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to.”


3. John 17:21 “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.”

4. John 1:18 “No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.“

5. Colossians 2:9-10 “For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily. and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.“

So this is aclear manifestation that the bible is full of contradictions..........
 
Jesus is both. 100% man, and 100% God.

He acquired manly status out of pure love to human kind that had destroyed the relationship between him and God. Being man was deliberate decision, for special mission.

But generally speaking; Jesus has always been and will always be GOD. Even during his manhood he was not simply a 'normal' human being. He was a saviour, a simple but feared leader by worldly leaders.. a miracle man who's teachings were intertwined with his way of life.

May Jesus himself help you to understand these[emoji120].

Well JESUS was 100% human and 100% GOD(this is very confusing of course), open ur minds brethren..... Jesus was born like any other human, he spent 9months in the womb of a woman like any other human, he had to do work(carpentry) to earn money like any other human, sometimes he felt hunger just like any other human....YESU ALIISHI KAMA BINADAMU NA WALA HAKUVUKA AU HAKUKWEPA STAGES ZOZOTE ZA UKUAJI....so he was 100% human and that human soul was the one that died in that cross, UUNGU HAIKUFA(that GODLINESS did Not die)

JESUS was 100% GOD, when he was on earth he forgave the sins of the wicked, and the bible tells us there's only one lawmaker and only one who can forgive and Jesus forgave when he was on earth, he was 100% GOD, the bible says JESUS will judge and punish the wicked and the bible also tells us theres only one judge and one punisher and that is GOD, so tell me how would Jesus fit in that role if he wasn't GOD and he wasn't the lawmaker???

Long story short, Jesus was the one who created this universe and all the things, he was the one that gave moses the ten commandments on mount horeb, he was the one who did all those miracles for the Jews in the wilderness through mosses..... JESUS IS ALL OVER THE OLD TESTAMENT, SOME OF THE PEOPLE AND THE EVENTS WERE PREDICTING THE COMING OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR... EVEN THE SACRIFICIAL SYSTEM WAS POINTING TO JESUS' DEATH ON THE CROSS

Daaah aisee mambo mengi muda mchache, ntarudi badae kuendelea...

IF U DONT BELIEVE THIS WHILE UR ALIVE, ONCE HE HAS RESURRECTED U IN THE DAY OF HIS COMING, HE WILL COME WITH HIS FULL MIGHT AND HIS FULL GODLINESS TO PROVE IT TO U, STAY WAIT AND SEE

When and how do the two separate?

Who suffered the pains of the Jews was jesus god or jesus man?
 
Can you first define your Key words,
GOD , MAN and 100%, what are these?

Then, so you can help me engage in this reasoning critically, also offer KEY differences between the two (GOD and MAN).
