Well, we have another No vote. Now it's 8 Yeses to 16 Nos. (Counting mine. I probably should have abstained, since I voted No based on entirely different criteria from the others, probably.

)

So, Oneness No voters, hasn't the One and only Person of the Godhead done different things in different offices (or manifestations or whatever you prefer)? Did God create the universe? Did He later do certain things in relation to His creation, such as giving laws? And did He later become a man, and do other things in relation to His creation, such as healing some people, and dying for mankind to save us from the consequences of breaking those laws?

I'd say that as God, yes... Jesus has taken lives. But as a man, no.

Since you used the name "Jesus" I will take it as meaning "the man, Christ Jesus". No, the man Christ Jesus never killed anyone.

I just asked about Jesus. Didn't specify as man or as anything else. You said "as God, yes... Jesus has taken lives".

See this post: http://apostolicfriendsforum.com/sho...132#post895132. Want to change your vote?

If Jesus as a man would be "no better than Mohammad" if He had killed anyone, how do you allow for Jesus as God killing people? (And, presumably, being "better than Mohammad".)
