Jesus doesn't consider himself good?

[LookingUp]

I said he was more than a prophet. Your first scripture shows that he is The Savior. Your second scripture supports my position that Jesus and The Father are 2 different entities.

The second set of scripture shows the differences clearly......Jesus is the heir to God's creation. He is God's representative. He sits on the right hand of God....not in God's seat.

Katydid, could you address post #28?

Jesus purposefully spoke to the people in parables.

The answer to Jesus' riddle is very simple.


Jesus is God

We agree that Jesus is God's representative. However, the Colossians passage says more than "Jesus is savior." It says that Jesus is the image of God. And the Hebrews passage elaborates on this by saying that not only does Jesus represent God, he is the radiance of his glory and the exact representation of his nature. Jesus tells Philip "If you have seen me, you have seen the father." In Philippians Paul says that while Jesus existed in the form of God, he was found in appearance as a man. In his gospel, John says that God came as a man and in his first letter he warns us to watch out for those who deny that he came in the flesh.

Mark 10:18
“Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.

Luke 18:19
“Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.

Just trying to figure this one out...

It's so simple, but I can't answer this question because of restrictions.
