So, even though the Bible tells us that Jesus is Emmanuel, you flat out deny that Jesus is Emmanuel.
No Emmanuel is one of the name Jesus posses, it simply does not mean what trinitarian cliams it means. Jesus is not called Emmanuel (God with us) in the sense that he is God and was with man, but rather, that Gods prescene was with him and the people whom he was among.
Since, by the word "God", you mean "God the Father", here is what you are saying: "Nothing about the name implies Jesus was God the Father."
No, since I'm clearing speaking to a trinitarian and am therefore using langauge with their thoughts in mind, as usual you assume. Leave it up to me to define what I mean by what I say and never assume.
What Trinitarian has ever claimed that Jesus is God the Father? None.
What Trinitarian has ever claimed that the name, Emmanuel, implies that Jesus is God the Father? None.
You only make yourself look like a fool when you twist and claim I mean things that I've never expressed and then go on to waffle questions to me regarding things I've never said. Where did I claim Jesus is God the father for you to ask "what Trinitarian has ever claimed that the name,
Emmanuel, implies that Jesus is God the Father"? I never claimed Jesus is God the Father, you could litreally argue with yourself.
By the way, should not you Russellites, you "Jehovah's Witnesses", be claiming that Jesus' (the John 1:1 Word's) name, Emmanuel, means "a god with us"?
Why would JW's claim that? Again the meaning of Emmanuel "God with us" relates to Gods presence and acceptance was with Jesus and for his people. When John the baptiser was born his Father said said under inspiration
"Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has visited and redeemed his people" (Luke 1:68), had YHWH actaully visited his people upon the birth of John? Nope, yet the statement still stands and relates to Gods prescene being with John and his family. Likewise Jesus being called Emmanuel (God with us) isn't saying Jesus as G-god is with his people, but rather, that YHWH was with his people through Jesus.
