In order to sin, you have to transgress the law of the most high. If your nation was not GIVEN THE LAW how can you sin? The HEBREWS were the only ones who COULD SIN and were accountable for their sins because the most high only gave THEIR NATION his laws. I swear some of you Christians are children of Satan, teaching the commandments of men and not reading the book.

[RayeVision]

your pagan God Jesus is NOT the messiah spoken about in scripture. There is no prophecy in Isaiah that foretells the messiah. I swear you Christians just take a verse out of context and run with it...smh. The scriptures themself SAY that the messiah was MADE SIN and came to save HIS PEOPLE..who are his people? The Hebrews. the ENTIRE bible is a book for the Hebrews. Who did the most high give his laws to? The HEBREWS. The messiah did not atone for the entire worlds sins, JUST THE HEBREWS.

[dmhtuber]

If Jesus is not God and just an agent, then He has the sinful nature of Adam, and if that is true, He could not atone for our sins, since He is sinful Himself.

[dmhtuber]

This settles it: "For unto us a Child is born. Unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6).

[dmhtuber]

Of course Jesus is God. If He is able to come inside your heart and change your life completely, then He is God. If He is able to regenerate your spirit, He is God. If He is able to deliver men from a guilty conscience and put joy in their hearts, He is God.

@JayEss2k Yes , he was trying to show that people in the 1st century believe in the deity of the Logos. It happens that those people are polytheists and Hellenistic Jews deeply influenced by pagan philosophy.
