There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.

This is not a new idea, as, of course you know. John wrote I John in response to this heresy and the JW's continue to hold this belief today!!

No, Jesus isn't God, He's the Son of God. The Christ. The Lamb of God.

I am reminded of Praxaes signature:
Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:

There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

That being understood, why are you here? Just sayin'

1 Tim 3:16
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.
KJV

I hate to tell you this but the Bible is not wrong, you are.

Amen! Sad but true. When you try to believe a false interpretation and prove it to be true with the Word of God you only get yourself confused and prove that you do not know the real God. People who serve gods that are not real walk in darkness and do not see the error of their ways as they try to serve a god that is not there.

Acts 17:23 (KJV)
23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, To The Unknown God. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.

He was an angelic being who became a man. Yes, He was human.

Those who don't have the same view as you are blind?

Billions of people for almost 2000 years were apparently blind until suddenly, in 1913, their eyes were opened?

Why are you demanding answers in a forum which you don't own?

Some people believe the Church of the Living God was virtually invisible and defeated for almost 2000 years until, suddenly, it reappeared in 1913.

Go figure.

But he was only human, not both Human and Angelic right?

That is what I said, you believe He was just a man
