Or even Him having existed before time, before the creation, in a form that we were fashion after, when God did decide to create man. Doesn't it seem unique to you that both men on the earth and the angels in heaven have the same form, but are not the same creations? It seems to me that God had a purpose that was just not earthly.

Malachi's response: Sounds like a nice explanation Doug. The problem is there are no scriptures in the Hebrew Bible nor GT to support it. Again, if you approach the study with preconceived ideas, nothing could dissaprove it! You will always have an answer to the problem. If Jesus was to say I am not G-d you would just say, he said this when he was in his human mode or the human nature is not G-d. It goes on and on.

Approach it without preconceived concepts and definitions and you will see that the evidence is overwhelming that Jesus is not G-d or equal with G-d in any way.

Malachi
