And they say: "None shall enter paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian." Those are their (vain) desires. Say: "Produce your proof if ye are truthful." Sura 2 Verse 111
Yes. He did not say that he is God, first of all jesus didn't come here for himself but his father sent. If jesus did say he is god, then he would disobey the father because he wanted them to know the father.
HE'S FATHER GAVE HIM AUTHORITY
in jesus name, every KNEE shall BOW, every TONGUES CONFESS that he is LORD!!!
Yes, it was revealed to David but it is about Jesus. Just as the other prophets talked about the coming messiah, David wasn't referring to himself but the messiah. In Jeremiah 31:9 when it says firstborn it isn't referring to him as the first created or resurrected. This is made clear by Genesis it says "Joseph named his firstborn Manasseh and said, "It is because God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father's household."...
...The second son he named Ephraim and said, "It is because God has made me fruitful in the land of my suffering." Gen 41:51-52 He called him firstborn as a title of preeminence. "I have surely heard Ephraim's moaning: You disciplined me like an unruly calf, and I have been disciplined. Restore me, and I will return, because you are the LORD my God. After I strayed, I repented; after I came to understand, I beat my breast. I was ashamed and humiliated because I bore the disgrace of my youth.'..
...Is not Ephraim my dear son, the child in whom I delight? Though I often speak against him, I still remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him; I have great compassion for him, declares the LORD." Jer 31:18-20 just as with Ephraim, god is showing his favor towards Israel by calling it firstborn. Because Israel was the chosen nation that god made a covenant with. If you read a little bit more into Jeremiah it talks about the coming messiah. "The time is coming," declares the LORD,"...
..when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. It will not be like the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them, declares the LORD." This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time," declares the LORD. "I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
...No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest," declares the LORD. "For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more." Jer 31:31-34 Some of the other confusion can come from the fact that God is our Father. So, we are all this children. This is true for the reference that was made to Adam in Luke. But Jesus is a part of the Trinity.
"Before I formed thee in the belly (of your mother) I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."
Jesus Christ was in the knowledge of God before Abraham walked this earth, just like anyother tom dick and harry.
God knew every human being before this world was created. That doesn't make Jesus Christ divine.
There is no way that it can be proven that Psalms 2:7 refers to Jesus since Psalms was revealed to Prophet David. Besides there are various other prophets in both the OT and NT who have been called the sons of God or "firstborn" of God. e.g
Yes. He did not say that he is God, first of all jesus didn't come here for himself but his father sent. If jesus did say he is god, then he would disobey the father because he wanted them to know the father.

I agree. Jesus Christ pbuh existed before Abraham pbuh walked this earth. But the question is
How was he(Jesus)?
Was he like Jim Cavezal, a Caucassian white man with blue eyes and God tranformed him to become a sperm and placed it in the womb of Mary?
Ofcourse not. He was in the knowledge of God. Just like God told Jeremiah.
