Will all who believe that God became a man, lived a sinless life, was crucified, and rose from the dead, please post here.

Setting aside our denominational or doctrinal differences momentarily, I would like to know how many of us there are here in this forum.

All others need not reply! (Unless you can't resist)

My God is the God and Father of Jesus Christ, His son. He is indeed sinless, but He is the son of God, not God the Father.🙂

Amazing that you can contradict yourself in the space of so few words! Is your God the father or the son? Note that you can't respond that he is both here because you have already said he is "not God the Father".

I don't see a contradiction....God is God the Father....Jesus is His son. Two separate entities...

I don't see the contradiction in what you posted either. I think it was just misread.

Only if you tell us if you are a body, a soul, or a spirit. Well which is it? You certainly can't be all of them at once.

I am a body. The body that is me contains a brain. That brain's activity is my mind and consciousness. I do not have a soul or a spirit in any metaphysical sense.

So you feel no spiritual connection with anything?

"My God is the God and Father of Jesus Christ, His son. He is indeed sinless, but He is the son of God, not God the Father.

I don't think extracting the bold bits changes the semantics of the above so...
My God is the God and Father...He is not God the Father

And now I paraphrase very slightly but still, I hope, keeping the semantic meaning of the original:
My God is the God and Father
My God is not God the Father

Really I'm being pedantic and pointing out what I presume is a simple typo but your insistance that the glaring contradiction does not exist implies that you did actually mean this. You have explicitly stated the your god is the Father and is not the Father. Did you really mean to say that?

I would expect you to say that he is both the father and the son (and the holy spirit) and that you made a simple semantic typo. I'm amazed that you are defending the typo.

I don't see a contradiction either.

I believe that "He" is refering to Jesus, not God. It's the only way the sentence makes sense within the context of the discussion. Granted it could have been phrased better.
