Made Himself God
33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? John 10:33-34 (KJV) Makest thyself God – I have often heard this verse used to support…

Selfish Ambition
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13 (KJV) Lay down his life – Really think about this verse. It has taken on a whole new meaning for me lately. Perhaps after my explanation, it will for you too. What does it truly mean to…

John 6:4
And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. John 6:4 (KJV) Passover – Last week I suggested that if John 6:4 is removed, everything begins to align much better in the timeline of Yeshua’s ministry. We looked at all the surrounding text that exposed the reason that Passover could not have been happening…

Timeline of Yeshua’s Ministry
And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. John 6:4 (KJV) If you’re at all familiar with the chronology of the ministry of Christ, this verse should cause some hesitation. It doesn’t align with the rest of the gospels, ie. Matthew, Mark, and Luke. And yet this one verse is the basis for…

Who is Yeshua’s God?
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. John 20:17 (KJV) My God – What an odd question for me to ask isn’t…

A Mental Shift in the Cosmos
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 (KJV) World – When I explain to people that the Hebrew word for a “human soul” is the same word for an “animal soul,” they smile and comment…

I Am
As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. John 18:6 (KJV) I am – I know what we’ve been taught. Yeshua is evoking the term “I am” as a representation of His divinity, and as the Trinitarians preach, establishing Himself as God in…

New Year’s Resolutions
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. John 14:12 (KJV) Greater works – The New Year is here, not God’s designated New Year, but nevertheless January 1st is…
