God Is Not A Man!

[Robert Sanders]

Numbers

Chapter 23

19: God is not a man, that he should lie;
neither the son of man, that he should repent:
hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken,
and shall he not make it good?

[Monterrey]

You are right He is not a man. But He robed Himself in flesh to become our salvation.

1Ti 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.

The verse you quoted is not talking about physical characteristics of God but about the failings of man. Man lies but God does not.

[Amanah]

God incarnated himself in flesh, while also being fully human, but sinless like Adam and Eve before the fall. Jesus had/has a body/mind/soul/spirit, a completely perfect human being. Jesus also embodies all the fullness of the Godhead, and we are complete in Him.

Do you believe that Jesus is God?

Absolutely! Course you are meaning the Spirit that resided in the flesh right? The flesh of Jesus was not God.

The flesh refers to the sonship, that was not God.

The Spirit that resided in that flesh was and is God. That Spirit is also named Jesus.

When we recieve the Holy Ghost we are receiving the Spirit of Jesus who is God.

Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever;
Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Joh 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

When we receive the Holy Ghost we receive God.

I was wondering(thinking to myself)
What or how much proof that proved all this you have said is false,
would it take for you to not believe this you have said.

Now do not get offended, I just would like to know just how
honest you are with yourself and others, seeking the truth.

Sir Robert,

Do you not believe that the Spirit that dwelled in Jesus was God?

Is that what you are trying to write?

If not then by all means, write on.

Please answer this for me before
we go any farther with this discussion.
Then I will answer all your questions.

[Luke]

Jesus was both God and man. He was literally God made flesh.
