our we equal to Christ?

No, I don't think so. I look up to Christ, I follow Him. I don't really know though...

NO i am in no way even close to Christ let alone equal. i would love to know what the scripture was that the minister used to back up that statement.

no, i am definatly not anywhere close to being equal with Christ. for one thing, Christ was/is sinless while i, while on this earth living this life of mine, am still sinful.

Moved to the workshop ok?

It's more appropriate there

I belive this should be put...

God sees us no worse than Christ.

We sin. Jesus doesn't. This is why he was sent to take our sin. The best way to explain it is, if we are Christians, God will not judge us for the actual sins we committed, but judge our representative Jesus who took the sins for us. Jesus is sinless. So we too will be seen as sinless is Gods eyes. This is why the only way to the father is through the son.

I know I am not even close. I am not even worthy enough to hold the dirt that fell off of Jesus' sandals. He was without sin. I sin on a daily basis. With Jesus he followed God's will completely. Unfortunately, I fail very often but thank the Lord for the gift of grace and forgiveness. Or I would be in a world of MESS..lol.
