basically...your sins are forgiven if you ask for forgiveness and a truly sorry, God can read our hearts so you cant fool him. if you a born again after you've had a really sinful life as long as you try your hardest to not sin and ask for forgiveness when you do and be truly thankful with all your heart you will be foregiven It is upto God whether he thinks that your heart has good intentions and repents. Basically unless you ask for forgiveness, how do expect to be foregiven? unless you are truly sorry and repent, serving God and trying your best to please him. He will be the Judge and his decision is just.

OF course its sinful. its having sexual desires whilst looking at another female. fair enough if your single, you dont have much else to look at...but i believe if you have a partner...you are making them feel like they are less attractive for you, i mean why cant ur partner be enough to get you off...why need porn? if you cant happily just look at your partner then u must have a problem...as in sexual addiction.

and it gives females and males self confidence issues being compared to these people who do it for a job. like many girls can deep throat or have massive implants in their breasts, tiny waists, clean shaven all the time, no imperfections. its unrealistic and setting to high of a standard for women. and think about animal, child or pregnant porn. Thats just sick. it goes to far. if u wanna watch sex then tape urself with ur partner and watch that. no need to look else where!!

i would like to ask a few questions if i may about the trinity belief....

Where in the bible does it say we are to belive Jesus is God? because as far as i know it only says we are to accept him as Gods Son.

What commandment would i be breaking if i didnt beleive in the trinity?

What commandment are you breaking if the trinity isnt real?

Why did many people die over questioning the trinity?

Why wasnt the whole concept taught in the bible? I mean if your saying it wasnt really clear then arent u saying Jesus didnt do his job properly?? cause i think something so significant would be taught and talked about throughout the bible. Trinitarians just twist the words to their own liking.

Why would God make himself a cornerstone of his own house?

why would "part of him" (Jesus, the Son) only be given the place of honor next to God's right hand after he did what he did for us? if he was God wouldnt he already be there and entitled to it? and notice it says next to GODS right hand...not his own.

Why would it say GOD gave him authority? God wouldnt need to give himself authority.

God cannot die.....it says in the bible... so then if Jesus is God then he couldnt have really died. God is either immortal or mortal? he cant be both.

God is all knowing...yet Jesus learned things? are u saying he forgot while he was on earth?

Jesus refers to his Father as "my GOD"

it says "therefore O' God , YOUR GOD has annointed you"..... GOD doesnt have a God..so how does that work if jesus is God? Would God need to annoint himself?

God is reffered to as the Gardener, Jesus is the Vine and we are the fruit. this is showing God is higher than Jesus...and many many times throughout the bible there are verses that support God the Father being higher than Jesus.

why isnt the Father, the son and the holy spirit always mentioned altogether all the time?

theres no consistancy in the bible of "us" "we" or "our".

would God refer to himself as a servant of himself?

Would God give himself honor and glory for what part of him did? no he gave it to his son.

Would God need to ask himself for help?

How can God be co-heirs with us to himself?

why would God say to himself ...Today i have become your father??

Jesus says to make us all "one" and God and himself are "one"....... this means one in essence. not one human being...not one God.

the bible says "one and only"        If Jesus wasnt God what would he have to say in the bible to make you believe it?

why would Jesus say that neither is he that was sent greater than the one who sent him? and the Father who is greater than i am? and why do u call me good? only GOD is good.  The head of every woman is man, the head of every man is Christ and the head of christ is God?????? 

why would God say about himself look at my servant whom i have chosen, he is my beloved who pleases me,

i will put my spirit upon him..... why would he need to put his spirit upon himself or part of himself?

God makes Jesus wisdom itself.. would he need to do that to himself?

its says God gave his son as a sacrafice for our sins...not sacrificed himself through the son

jesus says John 7:16- My message is not my own, it comes from GOD who sent me.

it says in the bible Jesus deserves far more honor than Moses.... Hebrews 3:2.... for he was faithful to God, who appointed him just as moses served faithfully when he was entrusted with God's entire house. But Jesus deserves far more Glory than moses........but christ as the Son, is in charge of God's entire house. ...( see GODS entire house not his own)

why would God make part of himself a priest for himself?

jesus says to God... i will proclaim YOUR name to my bros and sis's. i will praise YOU among YOUR assembled ppl.

Jesus is NOW crowned with glory and honor, Yes by GODS grace, Jesus tasted death for everyone... Heb 2:9

Eph 4:5 There is ONE Lord, one faith, one baptism...and ONE GOD and FATHER, who is over ALL and IN ALL and living THROUGH ALL.

would God need to entrust everything to himself?

1 Peter 1:20- God chose him as your ransom long before the world began.

1 tim 6:15 ... and only Almighty God, the King of all kings and Lord of all Lords. He ALONE can NEVER DIE, as he lives in light so brilliant that no human eye can approach him. No human eye has ever seen him, nor ever will.

So if Jesus were God then we have seen him and therefore this verse is invalid. same with this verse..1 Tim 2:17

John 4:23....when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. For God is spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth. ( not worship us, or we are looking for ..)

jesus says.. Their worship is a farce, for they teach man-made ideas as commands from God. (like the trinity created 325 yrs after christs death. )

Heb 5:4 no one can become high priest simply cause he wants such honor, he must be called by God for this work...that is why Christ did not honor himself by assuming he would become high priest. No he was chosen by GOD.!!!!!!!!

John 14 trust in God, and trust also in me.  ( so he is referred to seperatly from God here)

1 Chron 17:11-14 “For when you die and join your ancestors, I will raise up one of your descendants, one of your sons, and I will make his kingdom strong. He is the one who will build a house-a temple-for me. And I will secure his throne forever. I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will never take my favor from him as I took it from the one who ruled before you. I will confirm him as king over my house and my kingdom for all time, and his throne will be secure forever.”

Deut 18:18 I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell the people everything I command him. I will personally deal with anyone who will not listen to the messages the prophet proclaims on my behalf.

Hebrews 1: Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son. God promised everything to the Son as an inheritance and through the Son he created the universe. The Son radiates God's own glory and express the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor, at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven. This shows that the Son is far greater than the angels, just as the name God gave him is greater than their names.

( 1. God spoke through other prophets but they were not God.... so to me same goes for Jesus...as it goes on to say and now he has spoken to us through his son. 2. God gave an inheritance to the Son.

3.He radiates Gods own glory and express the very character...but doesnt say he is the very character? It also says that he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. So God has the power and is the only way the Son maintains it. 4. He sits in the place of honor at the majestic God in heaven right hand. He is of high honor. 5. It says The Sons name is greater than the angels but it doesnt say he is as great as God...and it also says God gave him a name greater than theirs...so he's greater than the angels...i agree...but still doesnt say he is as great as God himself or is God.????? please correct me if you dont agree...this is just going by what the facts say in the bible.)

4.Mathew 20:23 “But I have no right to say who sits on my right or my left. My father has prepared those places for the ones he has chosen.”

(If jesus were God why wouldnt he have the right to say who sits on his right and left??)

5.1 Corinthians 8:6 – But we know that there is only One God, the Father who created everything, and we live for him. And there is only one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom God made everything and through whom we have been given life.

"Jesus answered them, 'Is it not written in your Law, "I said ye are gods. If He can call them gods, unto whom the word of God came, say ye of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world, "Thou blasphemeth," because I said I am the son of God?'" (John 10:34-36).  Thats right.. i believe hes the Son of God.

Psalm 82:6  "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' " 

"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 2 Corinthians 4:4 (IMAGE of God)

1.The Trinity doctrine is not taught anywhere in scripture, but trinities were common in Paganism and were prominent in Egypt and Babylon.

2.The beginnings of recognition of this doctrine started at the Council of Nicea approximately 325 AD. Hundreds of years after the last book in the Bible was written.

3.The Council of Nicea was organized by the Roman Emperor Constantine and he had the final say on matters that he had little understanding of.

4.Creed followed creed, and eventually idols were accepted as forms that we can worship God through, and Mary was exalted to be the Mother of God and worship of the saints was sanctioned.

5.The organized church was built on top of these creeds. The creeds were and are the foundation for many of today's churches/denominations. These denominations are different to the Body of Christ spoken of in the scriptures. This shows us that most denominations are still rooted in a creed and in particular the Trinity doctrine. Most denominations still have the Trinity doctrine as a foundation and this doctrine originally came from Babylon.

6.The mother of these denominations the Roman Catholic Church murdered approximately 50 million people, had armies and banned access to scripture to Christians. This time is known today as the Dark Ages.

7.Some relief came during the Reformation where the teachings and authority of the Catholic Church were challenged. The Reformation restored many truths back to the Body of Christ.

8.As a result many new denominations started up and unfortunately they held onto some of the creeds and in particular the Trinity doctrine.

Now the Trinity doctrine says that God is made up of 3 persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. But the truth is that the only true God is the Father. The son is just that, he is the Son ofGod, not God himself.

The scriptures show us that we believers are united in doctrine by believing the following:

1.God exists and rewards those that seek him.

2.We must repent of our sins and turn to God and serve him.

3.Jesus is the only way to God and we should be baptized into his name.

4.Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.

5.Jesus died for our sins and was raised from the dead to the highest position (throne), that he may present us to God, holy and sanctified.

6.Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to the Church.

7.The Spirit of God leads us and teaches us all things.

8.That Jesus will return to earth and all the earthly kingdoms will fall. The Kingdom of God will come to earth.

I can have true unity of purpose with anyone that believes these points. The Trinity should never be pushed or taught as a doctrine, but today it is taught not only as a doctrine, but a foundational one. But the Trinity doctrine as a foundation is another foundation. Another foundation is not the true foundation.

1 Corinthians 3:11

For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Now Matthew 16:13-18 has a key for us.

But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"

16 Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

17 Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.

I believe that we need all three ( God, Jesus and Holy spirit) to have a relationship with God.

But i do not agree they make up One God. I believe God chose Jesus before the world began...just like it says in the bible.

He gave him special authorities like he gave to satan...unfortunalty for satan he missused his powers...whereas Jesus did the will of God (as it says in the bible...Gods will, not mine)

God chose Jesus as a way of saving us. He needed to make Jesus human and come to earth to spread the word, teach us how we should be, show us the very nature of who God is and what he's like. He needed Jesus to be a sacrafice to pay for our sins, because God cannot die. Because Jesus did as God had commanded him to ( as the bible says) he was then seated at the right hand of GOD. He is Gods one and only Son, we are Gods heirs along with Jesus.

Jesus came here to show us his Father , the ONE TRUE GOD, and for us to know Jesus who is Lord. and He deserves that role in heaven after all he did for us. he is the pathway to Gods kingdom.

I believe God made everything through Jesus.

The Father is the Most High God, Jesus the Word, the Christ, the Messiah came from God, and we (followers/believers) come from Christ.

God is the Most High God, Jesus is the Image of God and we are the image of Christ.

God exists inside and outside of creation, Jesus sits on the Fathers Throne and we will sit on Jesus throne.

We are at the right hand of Christ, Jesus is at the right hand of God, God is at the right hand of no-one.

The Father is the Gardner, Jesus is the Vine, we are the branches.

he Father is the Most High God, Jesus is the Mediator and we are Mankind.

The Most High God our Father, created all things through Jesus the Word, the result is creation. We are part of that creation, but we are made in the image of God, because we are like Jesus.

The Son speaks on behalf of God, we speak on behalf of Christ.

The Father is the Almighty God. Jesus is the Mighty God and we are gods.

Jesus is the only begotten of the Father (born of the Father), we are born of Christ.

There are many god's but for us there is but one God the Father.

The word God can refer to the Father, the Son, Man, Satan, Idols and Angels. We must read each scripture in context.

Jesus called his Father his God and our God. He said this on Earth and in Heaven.

Jesus tells us that his Father is greater than himself.

There are things that the Son does not know, but only the Father knows.

The Son is subject to the Father, and only does what his Father does, and speaks what he hears his Father speaking.

God gives all things to the Son, Jesus doesn't give it to himself. All good things originate in the Father.

I challenge anyone to fit the trinity doctrine with these points. I can also provide you with scriptural reference to all these points, if necessary.

Now I want to point out some things regarding the trinity doctrine.

The word trinity is not mentioned in the scriptures, nor is it taught by anyone including Jesus and Paul.

The trinity doctrine states that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are all equal and co-eternal. This is contrary to scripture.

The trinity doctrine became official some three hundred years after the last book in the bible was written.

The trinity doctrine became official upon one man's decision. That person was not Christ, but Constantine a Roman Emperor. He was trying to solve a conflict that needed a final ruling, lest it weaken the empire through division. He had little or no understanding of the subject at hand.

Those who drew the doctrine did not claim divine inspiration as far as I know.

The Jews appose the trinity doctrine on the basis that there is only one God as stated many times in the Old Testament.

The Egyptians worshipped a trinity.

When Constantine made the trinity doctrine official by order of the Roman Empire, the most influential person promoting the trinity doctrine was Athanasius, who was from Alexandria in Egypt.

The Babylonians worshipped a trinity too. They also worshipped the Mother of God and money.

anyway even if something else created us....well God created the universe. so ..? but it says he created us. so u can either go by what people from our history have written about or u can go with ur fantasy that maybe we just we created from the big bang nonsense??? i think this world works far to well to just be evolution. as in how theres air, water, food, all that sort of things...not that we humans have made the world work. we've destroyed the world. everything fits together too well to be just "evolutionised"

Colossians 2:8- DONT LET ANYONE CAPTURE YOU WITH EMPTY PHILOSOPHIES AND HIGH-SOUNDING NONSENSE THAT COME FROM HUMAN THINKING OR THE SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES OF THIS WORLD, RATHER THAN FROM CHRIST.

And look at what Jesus says in;

*John 7:16

and he says to the Father......to know YOU the ONE TRUE GOD! john 17:3

Jesus cannot be the Father who he refers to as the one true God because he is the son not the father

1 point

wheres the proof in the bible that supports God the Son and God the Holy Spirit?

WHere did jesus say we are to believe he is God himself?

We are brothers and sisters of Jesus and Sons of God....are u sayin we are brother and sisters with God?

How can we be Heirs of God and co heirs with jesus if he was God???

there is NOTHING in the bible that CLEARLY supports the trinity.

Jesus says that u need two witnesses and says that he and God are the two....NOT ONE!

wheres the consistancy of Us and we and our???

Colossians 2:8- DONT LET ANYONE CAPTURE YOU WITH EMPTY PHILOSOPHIES AND HIGH-SOUNDING NONSENSE THAT COME FROM HUMAN THINKING OR THE SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES OF THIS WORLD, RATHER THAN FROM CHRIST.

I ask those who believe in the "trinity" ....if God was just one God, what would jesus or God need to say in the bible that God is just ONE?...because to me words like the ONE and ONLY, and God alone (how can u be alone if theres 3 parts?)

Jesus is of high honor.... God gave him authority...if jesus was God why would he need to be given authority?

If jesus was God wouldnt he have made it clear to us when he came down to earth? If so..then you are saying that he didnt do his job properly.

why would God refer to himself as a servant??? why does Jesus have a different will to his father? if they are "one God" then wouldnt they have the same will? Theres no consistancy in the bible that supports the trinity. Jesus is tempted, God cannot be.

1 Chron 17:11-14 “For when you die and join your ancestors, I will raise up one of your descendants, one of your sons, and I will make his kingdom strong. He is the one who will build a house-a temple-for me. And I will secure his throne forever. I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will never take my favor from him as I took it from the one who ruled before you. I will confirm him as king over my house and my kingdom for all time, and his throne will be secure forever.”

Deut 18:18 I will raise up a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell the people everything I command him. I will personally deal with anyone who will not listen to the messages the prophet proclaims on my behalf.

(So the coming of jesus was refered to as raising up a prophit, not that He was personally coming to earth)

Jesus said to God “ I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters. I will praise you among your assembled people. I will put my trust in him. That is, I and the children God has given me.”

Jesus never says proclaim our name...or that we are your one true God.

Also....if you are right then where does it say in the bible i will not be saved if i dont believe this? if i am right and God is not a truine God...then havent you broken the first commandment???

Hebrews 3:2 “.... think carefully about this Jesus whom we declare to be God's messenger and High Priest. For he was faithful to God, who apponted him just as Moses served faithfully when was entrusted with God's entire house. But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself. For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.” ....... “ But Christ, as the Son, is in charge of God's entire house.”

(1. They refer to Jesus as Gods messenger and High Priest. Not God himself?? 2. Jesus was faithful to God who appointed him. 3. Moses also was entrusted with Gods entire house. 4. Jesus deserves more glory than Moses, but doesnt say as much glory as God himself? 5. Jesus is in charge of God's house. )

GOD CHOSE JESUS-ebrews 5:4 And no one can become a high priest simply because he wants such honor. He must be called by God for his work, just as Aaron was. That is why Christ did not honor himself by assuming he could become high priest. No, he was chosen by God, who said to him ;

“You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

Mathew 12:18- Look at my servant, whom I have chosen. He is my beloved, who pleases me. I will put my spirit upon him and he will proclaim justice to the nations. ...... and his name will be the hope of the world.

( so God is calling Jesus his servant? If Jesus was God I didnt think he could be a servant of himself

or be chosen??? doesnt make sense??? and God says he'll put his spirit upon Jesus...why would he need to do that if Jesus was God???? )

Mathew 20:23 “But I have no right to say who sits on my right or my left. My father has prepared those places for the ones he has chosen.”

(If jesus were God why wouldnt he have the right to say who sits on his right and left??)

Jesus says “why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.”

God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son as proof of loyalty to God. Back then giving your sons life as a ransom was of huge value. I know you said you wouldnt want to worship a God that sacrificed someone else to save us....but he gave us his son. I am honored and greatful God was willing to give his one and only son for me, and that Jesus was willing to die for me.

God alone cannot die....as it says in these passages...

1 tim 2:17 All honor and Glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen.

1 Tim 6:25 ... and only the almighty God, the King of all kings and Lord of all lords. He alone can never die, and he lives in light so brilliant that no human can approach him. No human eye has ever seen him, nor ever will. All honor and power to him forever. Amen! ( If jesus was God then we would have seen God....but we only saw God's greatness through Jesus.He was not God himself cause like it says no one has seen God and no one will..humanly speaking)

Isiah 11:2-3

The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him- the spirit of wisdom and of understanding. The spirit of counsel and of power, the spirit of knowledge and of fear of the LORD. And he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears.

(Jesus feared God. God cannot fear himself. He created fear. Didnt he?)

The Trinity is One. [The word "trinity" simply means a group of three.]

The Trinity is One. We do not confess three Gods, but one God in three persons , the 'consubstantial Trinity.' The divine persons do not share the one divinity among themselves but each of them is God whole and entire. "The Father is that which the Son is, the Son is that which the Father is, the Father and the Son that which the Holy Spirit is, i.e. by nature one God". (emphasis mine)

So let's pause for a moment and list the essential elements in this Dogma of the Trinity from what we have read:

1.God is a Trinity but is not three Gods.

2.The Trinity is one God in three persons

3.These three divine persons do not share the one divinity

4.Each of the divine persons is God whole and entire

5.These divine persons are really distinct from one another.

i believe that this whole trinity thing is part of satans work to twist the truth about our LORD GOD and who Jesus Christ was.

i read the bible with an open mind. did not know anything about the trinity and therefore was on no side...but tried to find the truth...i feel God has revealed lots to me. too many to put on here and most of its been covered anyway.

I really encourage people to search for the truth...seek and you shall find, ask and you shall recieve. and remember the first commandment always. God nor Jesus ever told us we were to believe they are one GOD together but of one essence just like when Christ asks us to be one like he and the Father are one. doesnt really make us one human. Alot of diff religions at that time of constantine beleived in 3 Gods, so it was a 'popular' thing then. doesnt make it real...its not in the bible so i refuse to believe it...and by sayin this i am not breaking any commandments of God.

1 Corinthians 1:20 – “So where does this leave the philosophers, the scholars and the worlds brilliant debators? ............... since God in his wisdom saw to it that the world would never know him through human wisdom...”

1:30- God has united you with Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy and he freed us from sin.

Therefore as the scriptures say:

“If you want to boast, boast only about the LORD.”

(1. It doesnt say God has united you with himself through Jesus. 2. it says to boast only about the LORD.)

Heb 7: While Jesus was here on earth, he offered prayers and pleadings, with a loud cry and tears, to the one who could rescue him from death. And God heard his prayers because of his deep reverence for God. Even though Jesus was God's Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered. In this way, God qualified him as a perfect high priest, and he became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey him. And God designated him to be a high priest in the order of Melchizedek.

1 John 5:13 And God has given us his Spirit as proof that we live in him and he in us...... the Father sent his Son to be the savior of the world. (so trinitarians try to say that when it says this about Jesus that it means He is God yet he says he is in us and we are in him too....but we are not God. Why is it that its used as one rule for Jesus and another rule for everyone else?)

1 Peter 1:20-21- God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but he has now revealed him to you in these last days. And you have placed your faith and hope in God because he raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory.

(isnt this saying God chose him, not himself? And it says he GAVE him great glory. And God raised Jesus from the dead not Jesus raised himself from the dead. )

So John 1:1 highlights the quality of the Word, that he was "divine," "godlike," "a god," but not Almighty God. This harmonizes with the rest of the Bible, which shows that Jesus, here called "the Word" in his role as God's Spokesman, was an obedient subordinate sent to earth by his Superior, Almighty God.

Is the Spirit GOD different from the Holy Spirit? Do we serve two Spirits in ONE GOD? Let's also look at the true scriptural doctrine( I Cor.8:6, I Tim.2:5). Where is the Holy Spirit mentioned? Does scripture ever mention an intimate relationship with the Father and the Holy Spirit? Does scripture ever mention an intimate relationship between Christ and the Holy Spirit?

The Bible does not teach the doctrine of the Trinity.

The term "trinity" is first used in a religious sense at the close of the 2nd century; it does not appear in New Testament manuscripts.

The doctrine of the Trinity is elaborate and contradictory, and denies one of the most important truths of the Bible

Yet the majority of Christians who believe in this doctrine find it hard to understand, and even more difficult to explain.

But should such a significant doctrine, dealing with the very nature of our great God in heaven, and which, according to the Catholic Catechism, has significant bearing on our faith - should such a significant doctrine be beyond our ability to understand and comprehend?

Rev 3:12+ Jesus calls his Father My God on several occassions.

James 2:17- Whatever is Good and perfect comes down to us from God our Father who created all the lights in the heavens.

God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son as proof of loyalty to God. Back then giving your sons life as a ransom was of huge value. I know you said you wouldnt want to worship a God that sacrificed someone else to save us....but he gave us his son. I am honored and greatful God was willing to give his one and only son for me, and that Jesus was willing to die for me.

God alone cannot die....as it says in these passages...

1 tim 2:17 All honor and Glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen.

1 Tim 6:25 ... and only the almighty God, the King of all kings and Lord of all lords. He alone can never die, and he lives in light so brilliant that no human can approach him. No human eye has ever seen him, nor ever will. All honor and power to him forever. Amen! ( If jesus was God then we would have seen God....but we only saw God's greatness through Jesus.He was not God himself cause like it says no one has seen God and no one will..humanly speaking)
