Jesus was no simple son of God in my book...he had it all...the power to forgive, transfer a criminal to Paradise, know all things, etc.


Because of the Title of this thread - I'm going to add ...the Holy Spirit has
visited me so many times over decades...it wasn't until around 2005-6 when I saw a TV pastor talk,
that I said, "OH! Christians call this the Holy Spirit ...yes...ok.
I always called it, (the visits), 'God' period. But, ok it's God's Spirit - so I can say Holy Spirit then, easily."

At that time I wasn't thinking of a Trinity ---the Spirit of God to me was God, period.
(I wasn't Baptized in the Holy Spirit until July 2009.)

No fancy separation in me .

Jesus was and is a god. He was the first born of God. It was thru Jesus' prehuman existence that all things came into existence except himself (Jesus).
