A man did not become God that is impossible.
God became a Man.
The scriptures show us that Jesus existed in heaven before coming to earth.
Wow! God cannot and did not become a man and of course man cannot become God.
Now God can come and dwell in men is true and He does and does in some.
Now the case with Jesus is, God came and dwelt in Him in full measure, In ALL Fullness! He was Fully God the Father with us in His Body!
Joh 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
I've done some thinking on this problem of how Jesus a man be inside all believers. Obviously the spirit of God is inside or with all believers, and scripture says that the holy spirit is the spirit of Jesus. So here's my thought on that. Jesus had the spirit of God within him thus the holy spirit is the spirit of Jesus because the holy spirit is in Jesus in all it's fullness. So we who know Jesus know him by God's and JEsus holy spirit. And that is the reality that I experience. God knows us through his spirit, Jesus knows us through the same holy spirit, it cannot be otherwise. Is God the Holy Spirit, yes because the bible says so, Is Jesus the holy Spirit, no because the bible says the Holy spirit is the spirit of JEsus not the holy spirit is Jesus. God gave JEsus the holy Spirit just as God gave us the Holy Spirit and it is through that same holy Spirit that both Jesus and Christians know each other.
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Here's another way to look at it. I have a physical body, If I stretch out my arm in a hole just big enough to accomidate it and reach all the way to the back of the hole and grab a mouse, one could say I have a mouse, but it's only my hand that has a mouse, yet we'd say I have a mouse. Jesus has the holy spirit that reaches into or to all Christians and it's with that Holy Spirit that we know each other.

You are wrong when you say the Bible does NOT say Jesus is the Holy Spirit. The Bible SAYS Jesus is the Holy Spirit.So we who know Jesus know him by God's and JEsus holy spirit.

I have the Holy Spirit inside me. That does NOT mean YOU HAVE ME INSIDE YOU!God gave JEsus the holy Spirit just as God gave us the Holy Spirit and it is through that same holy Spirit that both Jesus and Christians know each other.
Jesus SAYS that he HIMSELF will live inside us.If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
And that one Spirit is God and Jesus is not another God!
Joh 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
You are badly mistaken.
Are you saved? If you are saved, do you have Jesus HIMSELF living inside you?
Do you think that you have a man's spirit living inside you, BESIDES YOUR OWN SPIRIT?
NO. We do not receive the spirit of a Man.
You keep wrongly teaching that Jesus was a mere man who became God.
Jesus IS God come as a Man.
Those saved are NOT given another spirit of a man to be with them forever.
We are given the Spirit of God.
Jesus is God.
We are given the Spirit of Christ who is God.
If Jesus had a mans spirit---THEN HOW IS IT THAT A MANS SPIRIT CAN LIVE IN THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE?Jesus had His, a man's spirit and also God the Father's in ALL fullness.
You speak of things that you do not know.There is but one Spirit of Deity and that is the Father or you are not a non Trinitarian.
That ONE SPIRIT IS GOD, and that PROVES JESUS IS THAT ONE GOD.Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
And that one Spirit is God and Jesus is not another God!
Sister This,
The LORD, God the Father is the one and only Holy Spirit. Jesus is not another God but He is the man God chose to come into and dwell in, in ALL fullness in the fullness of time!
You are expounding Trinitarian.
When you say Jesus is that Spirit you are misinformed. God the Father Only is that Spirit.
After the incarnation He and the Father became one,
Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one.
And so now, He is a man and fully God also bodily as scripture states.
Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
If Jesus had a mans spirit---THEN HOW IS IT THAT A MANS SPIRIT CAN LIVE IN THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE?
You are badly mistaken.
You speak of things that you do not know.
Trinitarians rightly say there are three, but they wrongly say that the three are DISTINCT, which means different. They wrongly say that the three are SEPARATE.
The trinity rightly says that Jesus is God, but they wrongly say Jesus is not the Father.
Since Jesus IS God, then he is also the Father who is God; for there is only ONE GOD AND HE IS THE FATHER.
That ONE SPIRIT IS GOD, and that PROVES JESUS IS THAT ONE GOD.
How MANY SPIRITS DO YOU HAVE LIVING INSIDE OF YOU THAT ARE GIVEN YOU FROM GOD?
We are ONLY GIVEN ONE SPIRIT---so then, how does God the Father AND Jesus Christ live in you if we only have one Spirit? I will tell you how. We are given one Spirit, and that one Spirit is God and that one Spirit is Jesus, because Jesus IS GOD.
Seems like this thread has morphed from what non trinitarians believe to the oness doctrine.
Numbers can sure be tricky.
Well it is going nowhere at least with some participators, may be some guests that can pick out the truth from the error.
Well, a true non Trinitarian does not see any other than the Father The King of Israel as the one and only God as there is no other..
The following verses state far more than the average begin to see,
Isa 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
Isa 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
Isa 43:12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.
Jesus is CALLED the SAVIOR.
You say there is none beside God. That is Jesus speaking.
Jesus is God.
If Jesus is not God, then who is that besides God named Jesus!
Mark 16:19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.
Psalm 110:1
Of David. A psalm. The LORD says to my lord: "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."
At that time here is the verse that tells us of this,
You will notice LORD and LORD
Isa 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. ( it is I, I, not we, we! )
It is LORD of Hosts back yonder that sits on the right of God and did until incarnate in Jesus and then after crucifixion He is there now but serving as our High Priest!
LORD of Hosts is the Father's extension of Himself to go separate and to be incarnate in Jesus in the fullness of time when He finally would be born of Mary, thus made of woman and His is the body prepared for the indwelling!
Cannot you see that LORD of Hosts is the one to be incarnate in Christ?
Jesus is CALLED the SAVIOR.
You say there is none beside God. That is Jesus speaking.
Jesus is God.
If Jesus is not God, then who is that besides God named Jesus!
Mark 16:19 After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.
Psalm 110:1
Of David. A psalm. The LORD says to my lord: "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."
No, Jesus saw himself as a man and said straight clear and plain that His Father is God and our Father and our God.
Joh 20:17 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.
Jesus Spirit IS the Holy Spirit, which is God.He definitely could speak as God as the Father dwelt in Him in ALL fullness! Thus making Him fully God in a body of the man that He was.
Again there comes a time when the vested Deity returns to the Father and this verse cinches it!
1Co 15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
You made that up; show which scripture says that.God the Father then will no longer be extended in Jesus!
God is the Lord of Hosts.
Jesus is God come in the flesh as the Son of Man.
