« on: April 03, 2013, 10:47:33 AM »Does the Bible say that Yahweh created Jesus?
Yes it does. GOD Almighty created the flesh and blood Jesus, and GOD Almighty MADE Jesus from the Word. I have also covered this topic in one of my debates in great details:
Is Jesus the GOD-Man? |

Jesus Christ belongs to the World of Command. He is a BEING. We belong to the world of Creations. We are CREATURES. Our SPIRITS belong to the World of Command. And so does also the Word, the Holy Spirit, Melchizedek (the Jews' Highest Priest who had no father and no mother, and no beginning and no end, whom Christ had to be created "in his order", and had to be Miraculous like Melchizedek in order to be a match to him, and be made "in the order of Melchizedek". See Genesis 14:18, Psalm 110:4, Hebrews 5:6-10, Hebrews 6:20, Hebrews 7:1-20), and perhaps many of the Angels and many of the invisible Beings out there. Yet, everything is under the Power and Command and Control of Allah Almighyty:
"In blasphemy indeed are those that say that God is Christ the son of Mary. Say: "Who then hath the least power against God, if His will were to destroy Christ the son of Mary, his mother, and all every - one that is on the earth? For to God belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between. He createth what He pleaseth. For God hath power over all things." (The Noble Quran, 5:17)"
Jesus was declared to be the "first and the last" and the "beginning and the end". So what is Jesus' first or beginning? It's when he WAS or WAS MADE according to John 1:1. Jesus came from the "REALM OF COMMAND" according to the Glorious Quran. The Bible also agrees with this:
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was
Why did I cross "
The Word encompasses Jesus:

From brother Shaad: The Logos and Jesus are differentiated in Revelation....
Revelation 20:4
King James Version (KJV)
Jazaka Allah Khayr, dear brother Shaad. I took the
liberty to add the emphasis to your text, akhi. Indeed, the Word of
GOD Almighty
ENCOMPASSES Jesus,
because he was made/created from it; exactly as Islam declares. www.answering-christianity.com/word_of_god.htm
Take care, |
One might ask: Why was "God" crossed out and replaced with "with authority"?
Answer: Because the same word (THEOS or the compound one HOTHEOS) was also used for satan to describe him the "God of this world" in 2 Corinthians 4:4:
"The GOD of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (From the NIV Bible, 2 Corinthians 4:4)"
SATAN WAS CALLED GOD in 2 Corinthians 4:4. Yet, satan, like the idols, fails the challenge of GOD Almighty to prove that they are GOD:
Isaiah 41
21 Come then, says the Lord, your pleadings! Let the King of Jacob hear your contentions;
22 let them come forward, these other gods, and tell us the future. So read the past for us, that the study of it may disclose what needs must follow; coming events make known.
23 Foretell you what is yet to be, we shall know you are gods indeed. Then, if you have the power, grant good or ill fortune to mankind; confer we, and pass judgment on it!
24 Why, you are all empty air, a nothing that nothing can effect; he courts his own shame, that makes choice of you.
Satan can not do any of these. So THEOS ("God", the same Greek word used for The Word in John 1:1) means having rule and authority, and not being actually GOD Almighty Himself.
The cursed satan obviously was no one's Creator. So the use of the word "GOD" for him is a mistranslation, because GOD here means one with authority or rule, and not actually Allah Almighty Himself. The same thing about Jesus Christ, who was created from the Word of Allah Almighty. Jesus was given a limited authority by Allah Almighty here on earth ONLY:
John 5
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
John 17:21-22
21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
Matthew 28:18
18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
The Bible declares that Jesus is the one who will inherit EARTH after he crushes satan. This is where he is called the HEIR OF GOD. The Bible limits Jesus inheritence to earth only, and also limits Jesus' power and authority to earth only as well. Please visit:
http://www.answering-christianity.com/jesus_heir_of_god_lie.htm
This is also where Jesus was called called:
1- Mighty God.
2- Wonderful Counsler.
3- Everlasting Father (Rabbi).
4- Prince of Peace.
This is all discussed in great details at: http://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php/topic,868.msg3122.html#msg3122.
All Jewish Rabbis were called "Father". This is also where Roman Catholics get the "Father" title from. And Jesus being "Everlasting Father" means he is the highest Jewish Rabbi and Messiah, because he is the Messiah and the King of the Jews. See the previous posts above for a lot more details.
Also, Son of GOD in the Bible means a Righteous Chosen Servant of GOD Almighty. Also, GOD Almighty called "THE FATHER" means He is the Al-Knowing and Al-Mighty GOD Almighty. Also, all believers are called GOD in the Bible:
Psalm 82:6 "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' "

Son of GOD definition: In the Bible, "the Son" refers to the Messiah, - the Ultimate Messenger to the Jews. Son in their time meant Servant of GOD. Allah Almighty also explained it precisely like this in the Glorious Quran: "....servants raised to honour. (The Noble Quran, 21:26)". Please visit: www.answering-christianity.com/definition_son_of_god.htm
This is what we will be called in Heaven, and Allah
Almighty also does recognize "Son of GOD" title in the Glorious
Quran, but Says that they are no more than pious "....servants
raised to honour.
(The Noble Quran, 21:26)".
Nothing Divine about them except that they exist with Allah Almighty
Eternally in Heaven. But as far as Divine Authority and Power, all
Divine Authority and Power belong to Allah Almighty Alone and none
else. You can visit: Trinity Crucified! 100s of verses thoroughly destroy the trinity lie.

Messiah definition: www.answering-christianity.com/definition_of_maseeh_in_quran.htm |
2 The same was in the beginning with God (YAHWEH ALMIGHTY).
3 All things were made by him (that's YAHWEH ALMIGHTY); and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
The World of GOD's Command:
In Islam there are:
1- GOD Almighty, the Supreme and Soverign LORD and Creator of Everything.
2- Then under GOD Almighty, there is what is known in Islam as عالم الأمر or the World of Command. This is where the Word of GOD Almighty, the Spirit (includes the Holy Spirit), and perhaps many of the special Angels were all WERE MADE IN. Allah Almighty Made a reference regarding this World in many Noble Verses such as the following:
2:117 بديع السماوات والارض واذا قضى امرا فانما يقول له كن فيكون
[002:117] To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: When He decreeth a matter, He saith to it: "Be," and it is.
3:47 قالت رب انى يكون لي ولد ولم يمسسني بشر قال كذلك الله يخلق مايشاء اذا قضى امرا فانما يقول له كن فيكون
[003:047] She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He said: "Even so: God createth what He willeth: When He hath decreed a plan, He but saith to it, 'Be,' and it is!
3:59 ان مثل عيسى عند الله كمثل ادم خلقه من تراب ثم قال له كن فيكون
[003:059] The similitude of Jesus before God is as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him: "Be". And he was.
6:73 وهو الذي خلق السماوات والارض بالحق ويوم يقول كن فيكون قوله الحق وله الملك يوم ينفخ في الصور عالم الغيب والشهادة وهو الحكيم الخبير
[006:073] It is He who created the heavens and the earth in true (proportions): the day He saith, "Be," behold! it is. His word is the truth. His will be the dominion the day the trumpet will be blown. He knoweth the unseen as well as that which is open. For He is the Wise, well acquainted (with all things).
16:40 انما قولنا لشئ اذا اردناه ان نقول له كن فيكون
[016:040] For to anything which We have willed, We but say the word, "Be", and it is.
19:35 ماكان لله ان يتخذ من ولد سبحانه اذا قضى امرا فانما يقول له كن فيكون
[019:035] It is not befitting to (the majesty of) God that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! when He determines a matter, He only says to it, "Be", and it is.
"They ask thee concerning the Spirit (of inspiration). Say: 'The Spirit (cometh) by command of my Lord: of knowledge it is only a little that is communicated to you, (O men!)' (The Noble Quran, 17:85)"
[097:004] Therein come down the angels and the Spirit by God's Command, on every errand:
This World we call in Islam "Aalam Al-Amr" (عالم الأمر) or the World of the Command of GOD Almighty, where everything in it was Created by a Simple Command from GOD Almighty of BE and THEY WERE.
The Bible too speaks about Spirits, and interestingly, the Spirit of FEARING GOD will rest upon Jesus, the Servant of GOD Almighty:
Isaiah 11:1-3
"1. A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.
2. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him (Jesus)-- the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of
counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD (Jesus fearing his GOD)--
3. and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or
decide by what he hears with his ears;"

3- And there is Alam Al-Khalq (عالم الخلق) or the World of Creation. This is where the water and dust, and the flesh and blood creations are. And this is also where the SELF (nafs) and the SPIRIT (rouh), two seperate beings, enter into our fleshes to make us Humans. This is also where we carry the Attributes of GOD Almighty in Islam, or as the Bible puts it, this is where we have become the Image of GOD Almighty, or were created in the Image of GOD Almighty.
I talked about SELF (nafs) and SPIRIT (rouh) in great details in the past on this blog. For ample more details, please visit:

And what is Jesus' End or Last?
According to the Bible, Jesus Christ must inherit the earth from GOD Almighty by crushing all evil on it, forever. Jesus is the HEIR OF GOD ALMIGHTY only on earth and nothing more. The Bible makes this abdundantly clear. Please visit:
www.answering-christianity.com/jesus_heir_of_god_lie.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/ac7.htm#links
The Bible also calls all believers as the HEIRS OF GOD ALMIGHTY. So Jesus' Last or End is when the Lord Jesus Christ defeats the army of the anti-Christ, and establishes the Kingdom of GOD Almighty here on Earth while the earth and the Universe lasts, and before DEATH comes upon all creations:
[003:185] Every soul shall have a taste of death: And only on the Day of Judgment shall you be paid your full recompense. Only he who is saved far from the Fire and admitted to the Garden will have attained the object (of Life): For the life of this world is but goods and chattels of deception.
According to Islam, everything that was ever created and made by Allah Almighty will and must taste death. They must go through death. Only Allah Almighty doesn't die and never dies, and will never die.
I ask Allah Almighty that this helps to clarify the blasphemous trinity confusions.
Take care,
