8 thoughts on “When a Christian claims you don’t know God…”
Say to this kafir that his relationship is with a “god-man” which is not identical to god, and at the same time he believes father is “too holy” to have direct relationship with creatures. this is the filth they know
He kept saying I don’t know God so I kept responding by saying I know God is not a man. He never responded to that. Just another loser with his head in the sand.
Ezekiel 28 does a good job of showing why God is not a man and vise versa.
1The word of the LORD came to me:
2″Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: “‘In the pride of your heart you say, “I am a god; I sit on the throne of a god in the heart of the seas.” But you are a mere mortal and not a god, though you think you are as wise as a god.
3Are you wiser than Daniel? Is no secret hidden from you?
6″‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “‘Because you think you are wise, as wise as a god,
7I am going to bring foreigners against you, the most ruthless of nations; they will draw their swords against your beauty and wisdom and pierce your shining splendor.
8They will bring you down to the pit, and you will die a violent death in the heart of the seas.
9Will you then say, “I am a god,” in the presence of those who kill you? You will be but a mortal, not a god, in the hands of those who slay you.
10You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hands of foreigners. I have spoken, declares the Sovereign LORD.'”
so here we see certain qualities that if possessed disqualifies one from being God:
1.being not all knowing
2.being overpowered and killed by humans
3.dying
4.dying a cursed/humiliating death
I should mention that point 4 isn’t as strong as the above three. while most bible commentaries i’ve read say that is the intended meaning of “death of the uncircumcised” others say it’s about unbelief or not being properly buried so kinda a toss up there.
The question then is why God would use such criteria against the king of tyre when he was going to die for the sins of mankind?
think about it, if a random man appears to them with holes in his hands and feet and looks western european, their shirk stained heart would cause them to take this as “yhwh”
this confirms to all that they hate the BELIEF of an unseen GOD
A belief GOD in torah again and again confirms. “You did not see no form….”
i have a question. Why did coins back in jesus’ day have images of pagan gods?
“But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” 16They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
“Caesar’s,” they replied.
17Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”
Quote:
third is that the currency in use in jesus’s day, the tyrian shekel, bears the image of the god of tyre, baal melqart (“heracles” in interpretio graeca). this is one of the primary reasons that when the zealots take control of jerusalem in 66-68 CE, they begin minting their own currency, without a graven image of a foreign god on it. but the implication here, had jesus said this to contemporary pharisees, was that you should give to baal what is baal’s. rather than the pharisees shutting up and getting pwned, they’d have literally stoned him.
Because “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s” is found in a few independent sources the saying is considered authentic BUT it has been modified from its original context.

Good point. If God planned on taking human form, then He wouldn’t make this argument to refute the king of Tyre.
