Are you asking me? Because I actually do believe He Jesus Christ, the Messiah, is God. :)The Scriptures, the Zoar and many more..how is it that you cannot believe that Mashiach is Theos?

Ahh, thank you. No worries. :)Oh my, Sorry TLHKA..the question was not directed to you and you are doing a sterling job in using the Scriptures to SHOW that Messiah is God.
My apology dear friend.

I think this is the crux of the issue here.Nope, not pride, it's the truth. I've seen the Father and he has taught me beyond the bible about God. Discussing the bible isn't going to cover my understanding of God, which is what we have here.
I would challenge anyone who does question who Jesus really is to do just that. It’s the most important question to answer in this lifetime.
Thanks Goldie75. I've seen God the Father as spelled out in the second book of Enoch. I don't doubt that he talked to me either. I know who he is and what form he takes. He talked with me in a Godly way but I heard him as a man speaks with another man. Nothing can change that and for me to deny it would be unforgivable sin. I'll stick with what I know, not what other people want me to do, which is back peddle back out from God. I also know how powerful God the Father is. He's shown me some of his power.I think this is the crux of the issue here.
I used to think I had understanding about God beyond what is in the Bible - I had experiences to go with it too. So I think I get where you’re coming from - at least a bit…
As time’s gone on I’ve come to a greater appreciation for the authority of scripture - it’s been painful and humbling to let some of my old ideas go..also realising my ‘experiences’ mainly happened when I was in a state of heightened mental illness…ie hallucinating.
There’s lots of things I don’t fully understand or have the answers to. But that the bible is God’s Word to us, and that Jesus Christ is God I have no doubt. If one believes the Bible is God’s Word, and reads carefully with an open and prayerful mind the whole gospel of John, I honestly can’t see how anyone could question who Jesus truly is. I would challenge anyone who does question who Jesus really is to do just that. It’s the most important question to answer in this lifetime.
YES ...to all of this!!the bible is God’s Word to us, and that Jesus Christ is God I have no doubt.

Not in John 1The Word was God. Jesus is the Word.
So, who did Jesus claim to be?
Not in John 1
The messiah. The Big Reveal of Jesus’ ministry.
mark 14:61-62 The messiah. The Big Reveal of Jesus’ ministry.
The Word Became Flesh
Also, for obvious reasons, you are pretending the Word becoming flesh means God became flesh.
For obvious reasons, you are pretending the Word became flesh in John 1 is any different than any prophet who ever lived.
The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.
Must understand Gods creation began with the first born Son Jesus.
With your reasoning I am God.You have much to learn, and I say this in a loving way, people are generally lazy, too lazy to study their own bibles but would rather listen to YouTube or any other "BoobTube" on the Internet.
Should the Internet go "lights out" what will you do?
Have you redeem the time? If so, how?

I could are less to much scripture that declares Christ to be the first born of the first century creation.Is Christ the first "created being?"
What is monogenes?
