REASONS WHY JESUS IS NOT GOD

[font=verdana]REASONS WHY JESUS IS NOT GOD? [/font]
Jesus is a figure who is loved and revered by billions of people
the world over. Yet there is so much confusion surrounding the
status of this colossal personality. Muslims and Christians
both hold Jesus in high regard but view him in very different
ways.
The questions raised in this debate aim to get to the heart of
the issues surrounding Jesus: IS JESUS GOD?
We should all know that anything that is created can never be
God either man, things, Angel, or prophet.
The question now is �IS JESUS GOD?�, before the question will be
answered we will analyse the relationship between God and Jesus,
there are lot of evidences to proof that Jesus can never be God,
but some of it will be discussed here.
Firstly, Jesus was sent to direct people to worship God only
Mark 12:29, Mat. 19:17, Luk. 18:19, John 17:3 �And eternal life
is this: to know you, *the only true God,* and Jesus Christ whom
you have sent�. This is a clear statement from Jesus, he
differentiate between him and his Creator, and there are lot of
verses where Jesus regarded himself and God as two separate
entities, for example John 8:18 �I testify on my own behalf, but
the Father who sent me testifies on my behalf, too.�
John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God;
trust also in me."
John 14:28 �for the Father is greater than I.� even Jesus agreed
that God is greater than him.
Jesus said John 20:17 �I�m going up to my Father and your
Father, to my God and your God�
If Jesus was God, He would not have regarded God�s testimony as
separate from his own, that is why Allah says in Qur'an 2:72
�Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah
(Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)." *But the Messiah (Jesus) said:
"O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.�*
Is it sensible to say God live inside a woman for good nine
months and pass through private part of woman to this world?
when it is mentioned Job 15:14 �What is man, that he should be
clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be
righteous?�
God has no record of genealogy but Jesus has record of genealogy
Mat. 1:1, which means there is no way a mortal can know record
of genealogy of God, this to proof that Jesus is not God.
And also how can a helpless child be God because Mary and Joseph
received a message from God above to flee with Jesus to Egypt.
Mat. 2:13.
There a lot of features of God which no one has but if we can
see any one or thing that possess this features, that thing can
be called God, but if it/he lack 1 of it, that thing or person
can never be God but Jesus lack all features of God, which we
will know from this debate.
=> God has knowledge over all things but Jesus declared himself
that he doesn't know the day of judgement, even angels except
only God (Mark 13:32), can we say someone that is not all
knowing be God.
=> GOD Almighty can not be tempted (James 1:13) but Jesus was
tempted by satan (Mat. 1:4)
=> No one can see God and survive (Exo 33:20, 1 John 4:20) but
thousands of people saw Jesus
=> Jesus referred himself as Son of Man (Matthew 5:9, 17:22,
8:20, 18:11, 26:2, Luke 9:22, John 5:27) but God is neither a
man nor a son of a man (Numbers 23:19)
=> God is the most powerful (Psalms 66:3, Q 2:20 but Jesus is
powerless (John 5:30, 5:19)
=> God does not change: I the Lord do not change. [Malachi
3:6:]. Jesus however went through many changes in his life such
as age, height, weight etc.
=> God is independent (Q112:2) but Jesus depends on God (Mat.
26:39, John 6:57, Hebrew 5:7)
=> God doesn�t need sleep, food or water (Q2:157) but Jesus
however ate, drank, slept
=> Jesus agreed that he is not good only God is good (Mark
10:38, Luke 18:19, Mat 19:17)
=> According to Christian Jesus died as recorded in Matthew
27:27-56 but Bible says that God is infinite Psalm 102:27-27
These are just some of the *proofs* within the Bible, which make
it clear that the nature of Jesus and God is completely
different. Some people may claim that Jesus had both a human
and a divine nature. This is a claim that Jesus never made, and
is in clear contradiction to the Bible which maintains that God
has one nature (Hebrew 1:13).
What emerges, when we consider the historical and logical facts
about Jesus� life, is conclusive proof not only that Jesus
cannot be God, but that he never claimed to be God, But there is
not a single verse in the entire Bible in which Jesus says "I am
God, worship me." But he directed people to worship God only as
he said in Luke 4:8 �You shall worship the Lord your God, and
Him only you shall serve.� But God claimed to be God in
countless verse of the bible and Qur'an. Isaiah 43:3 �For I am
your Lord, your God, the holy one of isreal, your savior� Qur'an
18:14 �I am Allah, there is no god but I, therefore worship Me,
and keep up prayer (salat) for my remembrance�

For those that can think is it possible to say Jesus is God?
that's what make many Americans to be atheists before ISLAM
reached them because they can reason and think how can God be a
Jew why not Fulani or Hindi by tribe, God is not powerful he had
to come down inform of human being,
This is uncommon irrational believe that is why we say
christianity is upon pivoted heresies.
