I made this thread for you Goey.
hi Anna I am bothering you with these questions again.
There is something else I am not really understanding from the Bible. I started to read the new testament again..to refresh my memory. Well I remember when we were studying Genesis my professor said that christians believe that Jesus was with God when he created the world. Genesis 1:25 "let us make humankin in our image, according to our likeness...." anywho will im reading the new testament I have this book its called the life of jesus...so it helps me answer some questions i dont know about.
but there is something it says that i never understood. it says "in the beginning the Word already existed. He was with God and he was God. He was in the beginning with God. He created everything there is. Nothing exists that he didnt make. Life itself was in him, and this life gives light to everyone. The light shines through the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it."
okay from that the only thing that i do not get is "he was God" I just never understood that. So Jesus was with God and he was God himself. Does that have to do with that fact that its believed God took on a human form for 33 years. (if that makes sense...I dont know Im so lost with this)

Jesus was God's first creation,and so he is called firstborn.
colossoans 1;15-16 (he is the image of invisible God,the fisrtborn of over all creation.For by him all things were created;things in heavan and on earth visible and invisible....)
Jesus was God's *master worker* in creating all other things in heavan and earth. (proverbs: 8:22-31 , colossians 1;17 * he is before all things and in him all things hold together*).
Jesus also was God's spokesman.That is why he is called *the word* (revelation 19;13 * He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood,and his name is Word of God*).
Goey read Mark 10;18 * why you call me good? No one is good-expect God alone.* Is Jesus denying to be GOD?
.
Do you remeber the part where Jesus prays for himself? (John 17 *Father,the time has come. Glorify your Son,that your son may glorify you........I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do.and now Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you befor the word began).
Prayer means communicating/connecting with God .If he was God why would he pray?
Goey,sorry for my futile effort to answer your question.
