'Who do men say that I am"????????
Who do you say that He is"????????
This is that which distinguishes TRUE belief from
FALSE belief.
THIS IS THE GOSPEL! To be wrong here is to preach a
FALSE GOSPEL!
Bill Taylor has posted on this with the utmost
clarity. IMO the participating (TT) Mormons deny this central tenet. In so doing
they consciously place themselves outside of real Christianity thus occupying a
pseudo-Christian 'space'.
It'd be helpful to have 'them' respond clearly on
this point:
WHO IS JESUS THE CHRIST?

Jesus was not the man who became a god
Jesus was the only true God who became a man
LDS Theology has it exactly backwards
1 Tim 3:16 And without controversy great is the
mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh,
justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the
Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into
glory.
Jesus was all God and became all man he has a dual
nature.

Yes, John. I understand that you see it that way. But why?
Why do you think Jesus represents the Son of Mankind? I'm not sure
that makes any sense to me. I view Jesus as being a divine being, a
deity from before the world was created. Do you not believe
likewise? Isn't that why he was called the Son of God? Do you
think he became less than the Son of God, or less than divine when he was on
the earth? It seems to me that for Protestants to consider him reduced
to mankind status would be contrary to his divine authorship. In fact,
that's the charge many have leveled against LDS theology, that we have
reduced God to mankind status in effect. So it somewhat surprises me
that you would suggest such, JD.

DAVEH: Where did you get that idea,
Kevin? Son of Man refers to Jesus, and I stipulated such
several days ago. What I am trying to point out to you is the root
meaning of Son of Man....in that Jesus' Father is a man
who has been exalted and now resides in heaven. That's why he
is called Heavenly Father, which is distinctly different than the Son
of Man. Heavenly Father is the Man part of the title
for Jesus, who is the Son of Man.
Actually, I
believe that we have the Son of Mankind and the Son of God The
incarnation brought these two worlds together - God in the
flesh - reconciling man to Himself. does this
makes any sense to you, Dave.
