JOHN 5:30 I DO NOTHING ON MY OWN, CANT BE GOD

I can do nothing on my own. (John 5:30) How can he be God if he is powerless, hopeless and helpless, who else has heard this reason to deny Jesus? Mostly from Muslims and Jeohvah Witness I must add.

The Truth is Christians believe, Jesus is both God and the incarnated God, in flesh known as the man called Jesus Christ, one person within the hypostatic union relating to the three persons of the Trinity. The Father, Son & Holy Spirit.

In Galatians 4:4 Jesus was under the law, as a man, He was obligated to keep the law. In His humbled state of being lower than the angels Hebrew 2:9, Jesus was cooperating with the limitations of being a man Philippians 2:5-8. Therefore, He was in complete subjection to the Father so that He might fulfill the law and be the sacrifice for our sins Hebrews 5:10 and offer salvation.

Only until Jesus Baptism did He start to perform Miracles. It was at that point that the Holy Spirit came upon Him. Therefore, Jesus was performing His miracles not by His own power but by the power of the Holy Spirit. This same Holy Spirit is our comforter, is the light of God that rebuilds falling man into Born Again Christians. Matthew 17:20)

GENEALOGY MESSAGE IN THE BOOK OF GENESIS
I have got a Job planting seeds for Jesus Our Lord and Saviour, He will work with them to grow in His Mighty Name. So here is a great Seed.

Seed 1 - Are you aware that every name in the Bible have a purpose and a meaning, ever heard of the Gospel hidden within the genealogy of The Book of Genesis? From Adam to Noah research, the Hebrew meanings of these names, the following message to all mankind appears. “Man (is) appointed mortal sorrow; (but) the Blessed God shall come down teaching (that) His death shall bring (the) despairing rest” God is Good and is Our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus. Christ is Life. John 3:16. @ChristIS
Mormons, Muslims and Jehovah Witnesses all have additional scripture, a book, the cult members all regard as the highest of authority, above the Holy Bible. Interestingly all three members then proceed to use the bible to confirm their own religions, whilst at the same time hypocritically deny the authority of the Holy Bible, by not reading, a simple lack of understanding, false assertions, claims of corruption, contradictions, lies or an absoulte favourite of mine, our bibles infallible even though no Christian actually claims the bible is fallible.

So they either claim to be Christians which Mormons and JW are certainty not, or from the Abrahamic faith, again Islam is certainty not. So if they claim to be of Christian stock, but then hold a different gospel, in Mormons case their gospel in ‘The Book of Mormon' can be found below.

2 Nephi 25:23 "for we labour diligently to write, to "persuade our children, and also our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to god; for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do"

Notice the last words of this verse, “that we are saved, after all we can do" after all a Mormon can do, sounds like the death, burial a resurrection of Jesus Christ, is not good enough for the remission of sins in Mormonism .

What does the Bible say about our salvation.

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 - “1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain, 3¶For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures"

Christ is Life. John 3:16.
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
"God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,"
— Hebrews 1:1 (KJV)

THE 3 FOUNDATION PRINCIPLES TO MY CHRISTIAN FAITH.

Christians know three Truths of the Holy Bible, three foundational principles to support our bible and sustain our biblical world view.

1) Their is only 1 God.
2) 3 person are described as God.
3) 3 persons are distinct from each other.

All working as one, together, throughout the ages to fuflill the Gospels. If you remove one of the three principles, and leave two remaining principle understandings, then use only the two remaining understandings when reading scripture, you get a completely different world view, a heretical belief systems, blinded to His Word. This is Satan making himself like God, throughout history. This has caused Man and his interpretations to create the denominations that has been the plight of Christs Church. And has caused many to fall from lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6)

As shown below:
Remove principle 1, we are left with, 3 person described as God and 3 persons are distinct from each other, that describes Polythism.

Remove principle 2, from the above principles and with only 1 God and 3 person are distinct from each other, you are left with Araianisim. A heresy from the 2nd century, from Egypt, and one of two main reason for the Council of Nicea in 325AD, plus its the Jeohavah Witnessess we see today.

Remove principle 3, and we have 1 God with 3 person are described as God, we now have Sabellianism. In Christian History, Sabellianism in the Eastern church or Patripassianism in the Western church is the belief that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three different modes or aspects of God, as opposed to a Trinitarian view of three distinct persons within the Godhead.[1] The term Sabellianism comes from Sabellius, who was a theologian and priest from the 3rd century.

In conclusion, we know God In the bible as the invisible one called YHVH, Yahovah, He has revealed his majesty and made himself known to His creation in the three persons described as Father, Son and Holy Spirit throughout time and within scripture in its entirety from Genesis to Revelation. Each person of the Godhead is distinct, and the three Persons of the Trinity, again the godhead are equal in nature and one in being, but they are distinct in Person and distinguishable in their works.

Psalm 119:40-50 KJV — Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness. VAU. Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word. So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word. And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments. So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever. And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts. I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed. And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved. My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes. ZAIN. Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope. This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
TRINITY IS NOT IN THE BIBLE, ITS MADE UP.
The word ‘Trinity’ is not in the bible, it does not exist, it is false. Have you ever heard this objection, in fact, this is a common objection towards the Trinity, especially from within Islam, but they're not alone, deniers to Christ divinity proclaim this.

His Word shows them to be hypocritical, It's illogical to claim that since a word "Trinity" is not found in the Bible, then the concept is not taught therein. An objection demonstrates prejudice against the teaching of the Trinity. Upon unpacking this statement its clear its a premises they hold, without any serious study into God's Word to truly see if it is taught or not.

The first thing I do, when I hear this objection is inform them many biblical concepts that people believe, don't have a specific word. For example, the word "bible" is not found in the Bible, but it's used to describe the Bible. Likewise, "omniscience" which means "all-knowing," "omnipotence" which means "all-powerful," and "omnipresence" which means "present everywhere," are words not found in the Bible, but we use them to describe the attributes of God. We don't have to see a specific word in the Bible in order for the concept it describes to be true.

We can list other words that the Bible does not use, but the concepts are mentioned a few are as follows:

Atheism is the teaching that there is no God. "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God'" (Psalm 14:1).
Divinity which means divine quality or godlike character. Yet, we speak of the godlike quality of the Lord God. See Psalm 139.
Incarnation which means the word (God) who became flesh. Yet, this is definitely taught in the Bible (John 1:1, 14).
Monotheism is the teaching that there is only one God (Isaiah 43:10; 44:8).
Rapture is the teaching that the Christians who are alive when Jesus returns will be caught up to meet Him in the air (1 Thess. 4:16-18).

Nevertheless, there are scriptures that demonstrate a Trinitarian aspect.

Matt. 28:19, Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
2 Cor. 13:14, The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
Eph. 4:4-7, There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift.
Jude 20-21, "But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith; praying in the Holy Spirit; 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life."

Counter questions I ask to said deniers of Christ divinity are as follows:

IF ISALM – Is the Word Thawed is the Quran? Tawhid (Arabic: توحيد‎ tawḥīd, meaning "unification or oneness of God" How do you unify one?
IF JEOHVAH WITNESSESS - Do You Accept Pauls writings? They will always say yes, then proceed to read Galatians 1:8-9. Paul says "any other gospels reject them.
IF MORMONISIM - What Is The purpose of the Mormon Faith? They will beat around the bush here with regards to the answer, so for the sake of time just say, I'm aware Mormons ultimate point to the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ is that we become like Gods. But the bible teaches our Identity is not who we become, but who we are in relationship to God, Ephesians 1:5, Romans 8:23, 9:4, It's clear we become adopted sons and daughters of God, Romans 8:1 - we are uncommendable In Christ, Romans 8:39 we are inseparable from God's love.

Much more can be used to dispute all of theses cults. However it is not us that convert people, we simply plant seeds, not arguing, for we are tasked to proclaim His Word in ‘Whom He is’ and ‘What He did’ theses are the seeds of the Lord, His gospel found in (1 Corthinthians 15:1-4)

"To destroy a people you must first sever their roots." - 'Alexander Solzhenitsyn'. The only truth is Christ, our roots our Christianity, we must return to them. Christ is Life. John 3:16.
ISLAMS FALSE PREMISE TOWARDS THE BIBLE.
The Quran, is believed to have been ‘sent down’ from heaven uncorrupted by the hands of men. It is this belief in scripture as a revelation which has been ‘sent down’ what Muslims always do is impose this premise upon the Bible, but fail to understand it is wrong for Islam to assume that the Bible can be measured using the same criteria as that imposed on the Quran.

Please remember The Bible is not simply one book compiled by one man as Islam claim for their Quran, but a compilation of 66 books, written by more than 40 authors, over a period of 1500 years! Christians have always maintained that the entire Bible shows the imprint of human hands. Evidence of this can be found in the variety of human languages used, the varying styles of writing, the differences in the author’s intellects and temperaments, as well as the apparent allusions to the author’s contemporary concepts of scientific knowledge, without which the scriptures would not have been understood by the people of that time. That does not mean, however, that the Bible is not authoritative, for each of the writers received their revelation by means of inspiration.

In 2 Timothy 3:16, we are told that all Scripture is inspired. The word used for inspiration is theopneustos which means “God-breathed,” implying that what was written had its origin in God Himself.

In 2 Peter 1:21 we read that the writers were “carried along” by God. Thus, God used each writer, including his personality to accomplish a divinely authoritative work, for God cannot inspire error.

The Bible speaks many times of its inspiration:

In Luke 24:27,44; John 5:39; and Hebrews 10:7, Jesus says that what was written about him in the Old Testament would come to pass.

Romans 3:2 and Hebrews 5:12 refer to the Old Testament as the Word of God.

In 1 Corinthians 2:13, “This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit.” This is corroborated in 2 Timothy 3:16.

In 1 Thessalonians 2:13, Paul when referring to that which he had written says, “…you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the Word of God…”

Peter speaks of the inspiration of Paul’s writings in 2 Peter 3:15-16, where he maintains that, “…Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom that God gave him. He writes the same way in all his letters…”

Earlier, in 2 Peter 1:21 Peter writes, “For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along [moved] by the Holy Spirit.”

And then finally in Revelation 22:18,19 the writer John, referring to the book of Revelation states, “…if anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life…”
