VHB:
Just so, if Jesus as a human being is 'God' so say then we all are. We are no different in that we are all its expression.
No, Jesus was and is the only perfect human to have ever lived. And as many people whom think themselves perfect I have yet to encounter one or ever hear of someone whom has encountered a perfect human being.

The main most troubling fact is: there does not exist a "gospel attributed to the writer JESUS on or about 33 AD". This is a total boomerang to Christian theosophy but NO ONE cares or thinks this is significant.

arpgme: Why would there be a Gospel of Jesus around 33 AD near the year of his death? It took a while for people to believe in Jesus and it took a while for the Christians to get settled from escaping prosecution. They would stay hidden by just talking about Jesus (Oral Tradition) and then eventually they wrote The Gospels of Jesus. As for the documents at 150 AD, those who were prosecuting Christians were destroying documents even today were do not have the original writings of The Gospels only earlier copies.
Jesus is ONE with God The Father; even Jesus prayed when he was physical.

A thread sure to elicit response...
Have loved the discussion and banter!
"'gods' best expression of ITSELF" ... I have surely considered this...though...not including the word 'best', when considering myself --- but...every possibility must be explored --- best to worst.
So Good To See You - VetHumanBeing!
Our basis is the Bible. Jesus is God and He himself declared that he is the "I AM", the God of Moses. Thus, this is the very reason why he was crucified by the Jews because of this blasphemy.

Could you please give me the biblical scriptures that says that Jesus is God and that He Himself declares this?
Also are you aware of the written records that reveal that Jesus was never charged or convicted of the accusation that He was God? Are you aware that the penalty of claiming to be the son of God was to be stoned and not crucified? And are you aware that Jesus stood trial on the charge of His claim to be the Christ (Messiah)? Not God but God's only begotten Son. Jesus stood trial in the hall of hewed stones and the votes were cast. Out of the 71 votes of the Sanhedrin 40 votes were in Jesus' favor while 31 votes were not in His favor. Jesus was acquitted from the Jewish courts and then stood trial and convicted by Roman decree of only one man.

1. Jesus; just as Mohammed, Buddha is a stepped down version of an energyform encompassing the 9 dimensions (Kether to Malkuth) Qabala version of spirit becoming a material form as an "insert" personality to change an archetype/eon.
2. There is no such thing as 'god' as a 'being' it is a field of energy comprised of a series of 1s and 0s, OR simply information.
3. You are yourselves 'gods' best expression of ITSELF; as much as you deny it; it is the truth you are its better expression as visualized as an INDIVIDUAL; what other point was to be made except you fathom/realize who you are? GOD AS YOU ENCOMBRANCE.
4. Walt Disney or Shakespeare would fit the human into a shape that made sense, cartoonish or poetic, you make that determination.
The world is becoming as it was before that big deluge
Earth: The nightmare planet. A place where people are now rejecting all the virtues of good, and replacing them with the virtues of self and darkness

akushla99 How exacting can you get?! Clear & precise...Walt had a field day, some people just love being cartoons of themselves...
Indeed, what other 'point' could there be?!...with interest, pixellation only good when you squint...
Denial builds walls that only they, that deny, can topple...since they built them...perfection is where you are right now...

Yearly on the first weekend of May (on Saturday) and on the 19th September amazement spreads through Naples Cathedral. There one can marvel at how the blood of the beheaded San Gennaro liquefies in its ampoule. The day of the blood miracle is an important feast for Naples and the people celebrate it accordingly.

I like your signature, but my God is not an atheist and He let's me laugh. I may get b*tch slapped for it, but it is worth it.
Rich Mullins, a well-know Christian recording artist. (R.I.P.) said: "Good taste is the enemy of art." Can you wrap your mind around that? At the beginning of this song he talks about how he sees God. If ever I heard a man talk about God as one who knows Him as a WILD MAN Rich would be the one who "gets" God.

and I hope you laugh, too.
(BTW God proofread my post and gave it HIS stamp of approval).

No one ever said there was one god only available to all. As I see it you design your individual idea of 'god' to suit your own sensibilities (that being what rings truth). Personally without us (humans) acknowledging a higher creator being, IT would not exist at all, not without our input or more interesting 'our creation of it out of our own minds' (we created God out of necessity; do not want to fathom/contemplate we are on our own oar less, rudderless with no direction). I like this quote "Good taste is the enemy of art"; but is God Art? I would say so as we are the most imaginative of apes make a theory manifest into 'something tangible' without us God would not exist (not the other way around). George Carlin got the God concept as well. Thank you for your reply and bringing attention to Rich Mullins.
What you say is exactly the opposite of the true message of good news. The world and many people do indeed make their own version of Christ and God, but this is not the direction Christ gave, nor is it in any way acceptable for anyone to do. When people do this, they expose their own desire to not be accountable to any ruler except themselves, and this shows that people will forgo virtue for serving themselves which is man's epitaph anyways. unless they take it upon themselves to break free from this bondage of immorality. It is still a choice.
