Biblical Languages 301 Guidelines
This is where we come to delve into the biblical text. Theology is not our foremost thought, but we realize it is something that will be dealt with in nearly every conversation. Feel free to use the original languages to make your point (meaning Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic). This is an exegetical discussion area, so please limit topics to purely biblical ones.
This is not the section for debates between theists and atheists. While a theistic viewpoint is not required for discussion in this area, discussion does presuppose a respect for the integrity of the Biblical text (or the willingness to accept such a presupposition for discussion purposes) and a respect for the integrity of the faith of others and a lack of an agenda to undermine the faith of others.

Did the Word become flesh (Jn. 1:14)?
John 1:3,
All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.
Was the Son of God born of the seed of David (Rom. 1:1-4)?
Romans 1:4,
. . . And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: . . .
The Son of God was the Son of God before He was born the man. He always was the Son of God (Proverbs 30:4).
What was born of Mary was the man, not God. (Acts 17:28; 2 Chronicles 2:6; Jeremiah 23:24.)
I have little desire to continue this conversation; we've made our positions clear, and further argument is unlikely to budge either of us.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

NKJV = "was born"

Indeed. Why, then, are you ignoring clear statements in scripture in order to twist less clear statements to support your contention? That is not honest biblical interpretation. It is a clear sign that your personal beliefs are driving your reading of the scriptures, and not vice versa.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

You want to separate the man from God as if the Son was a ghost who possessed the man. Like OBP said, that is nestorianism.
No one is saying Mary literally created God by giving birth to Jesus. derp.

The Christ is both God and man (Ephesians 5:5). Nowhere does the holy scripture teach Mary gave birth to God when she gave birth to the man who is the Christ. God did not change, the Word changed (John 1:14) becoming flesh. And the Word was always God and still is (Hebrews 1:3; etc). The Word being God (John 1:1; Malachi 3:6) is not what changed, the Word being with God is how He changed (John 1:2).Last edited by 37818; 07-18-2017, 11:42 AM.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

Sounds like you know you are wrong and are trying to deflect. You want to separate Jesus from the Son while claiming you are not.Last edited by 37818; 07-18-2017, 08:46 PM.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

Here is the task, is there any reference in the NT where Jesus is called Lord where being called Lord can only mean that He is God?
The deity of Jesus being the Christ is not at issue.
The Trinity is not at issue.
It is my understanding that Jesus being the one Lord in the NT has to do with His incarnation and exultation by God (Acts 2:36; 1 Corinthians 8;6; 1 Corinthians 15:24-28).. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV

No. You do not want to hear the view. It is one thing not to agree, it is another to refuse to hear it. The Son of God was the Son of God before the incarnation to be the Christ.
You want to say both that the Man and the Son are one being, and also separate them so that only the Man was born. Can't have it both ways.
