    To add to what Jason04srt4 has already indicated Jesus IS God, the mystery of the Godhead is not easy for humans to understand but it entails 3 entities which are One and act as one, according to Scripture.

    How is Jesus God, when he is supposed to be the son of God? Is he his own Dad?

    That would mean that the people in Alabama had it right all along and the rest of the world was wrong that incest is best....in some weird way. Later, QD.

    its not that jesus IS god
    its the trinity.

    holy spirit, jesus, and god

    iirc.. basically like a court system.. in order to the trinity as listed on the prev. line.

    holy spirit =messenger(those police officer guy who gives the judge stuff)
    jesus =attorney (prays for us, etc. etc.)
    god =judge

    these are very basic to just give you an idea.

    Actually according to Scripture Christ is both mediator AND judge.
    You might say that heavens court is 'rigged' in your favor.

    Like I said, the mystery of the Godhead is not easily understood...obviously youre no exception.

    How can three 'persons' be one? Yet they are. Perhaps a better way to put it is that Jesus Christ is PART of God which entails 3 things, Father, Son & Holy Spirit. All 3 function together as One.

    The confusing part to some (you too evidently) is that Christ is not a son in the earthly sense. He has always existed as part of God and is not a created being like an angel or human. In fact, He is the Creator.

    I don't know if you're too old to process that I am just asking a GODdamn question because I don't know or if you're just too busy trying to be the smartest guy on IA to realize that I am just asking a GODdamn question because I don't know, but there is no GODdamn reason to emphasize that I don't know much about this GODdamn shit. So quit with the GODdamn "you too evidently" bullshit and just try answering the GODdamn question. Or is that too GODdamn hard?

    Now, if you can see that I am just asking a GODdamn question here:
    The scenario from what you guys are saying (the way I am reading it) is that God impregnated Mary and nine months later (or whenever Mary has this kid) she gives birth to God and they call God Jesus.

    Check this out: I DON'T UNDERSTAND!

    There. Now you don't have to point it out to me that I don't get it. Later, QD.

    I'll answer the question any way I see fit. But thanks for your input.

    I would also add that my statement was clearly not a jab at you but simply placed you in the same boat with all the rest of us. Thats not an insult.
    The fact you seem to find it so is your problem really. There's no intention there.

    There's no need to "place me in the same boat." It was unnecessary to point that out. I never claimed to know everything or most anything about this crap. That's why I asked. Not to be told that it's obvious I don't know. So I guess you're just too goddamn old to realize shit, huh? Fucking dummy. Learn how to speak to others and they may not take you "the wrong way." Later, QD.
