Presuming the question to refer to the three times the New Testament records God's voice speaking from heaven while Jesus was on the earth:
Matthew 3:17 - And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." (Following Jesus' baptism)
Matthew 17:5 - While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!" (Following the Transfiguration)
John 12:28 - "Father, glorify Your name." Then a voice came from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it and will glorify it again." (Following Jesus' "Triumphal Entry" into Jerusalem)

How could Jesus be tempted 3 times yet it Says after Satan tempted Him in All things he departed?
1) Satan said to Jesus, who was fasting, if you are hungry, turn the bread into stones. Jesus said man does not live by bread alone, but, by every word that comes from God. 2) Satan said to Jesus, why not throw yourself off a cliff and see if the angels will catch you? Jesus said not to put God to the test and force God to save you. 3) Satan then said that if Jesus were to worship him (the devil), then the devil would give all the kingdoms on Earth to rule. Jesus said, thou shall worship the Lord God, and no other than the Lord God. With that, the devil, Satan, departed. Jesus refused to do what the devil said, and the devil gave up trying to tempt Jesus.
Do jehovahs believe that Jesus is God?
No they do not. Mainly because Jesus did not believe or teach that he was God. Infact he often said and taught things that showed he was not God. The famous prayer he taught his followers at Matthew 6 shows his father was the God he wanted his followers to pray to. The night before his death Jesus talked of "the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ". (john 17:3) So they were clearly separate. At Acts 2:31,32 Peter talked of "this Jesus whom God resurected." (How could God resurect Jesus if Jesus was God?) Jesus apostles believed the same. The apostle Paul once described Christ as the head of the congregation, "and the head of Christ is God". (Not "the head of God is God) Jesus told his followers he the father (God) was greater than he was, that God knew things he did not and many other things that contradict any idea Jesus was God. He even cried out "My God why have you forsaken me?" when he was dying (which makes no sense if he was God)
How many times is the phrase 'and God said' used in the bible?
New World Translation: Variants of: 'and God said" occurances: "and God said" = 3 "and Jehovah said" = 5 "Jehovah God said" = 1 (without the 'and') "Jehovah said" = 140 (without the 'and') "God said" = 26 "Lord said" = 11 "Lord Jehovah said" = 1 "and the Lord said" = 3 Making a total of approx 190 times. But then we should not forget about: "Jesus said" and all its variants.
Which of god's names do some scholars think that jesus is claiming with his I AM statements?
I think the 'scholars' said Jesus was claiming to be 'GOD' with the statement attributed to Jesus in John 8:58 by comparing the "I am" with the "I AM" in Exodus 3:14 - clever play with word!God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.'" [Exodus 3:14]"Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" [John 8:58]
Is Jesses God or not?
It's complicated to explain. There is only one god, the Holy Spirt and Jesus are a part of God, however they are 3 separate beings. Jesus referred to as God his father. Jesus said that he and the father were(and are one). This is often called the Trinity, although The Bible never uses that exact word.
Was Jesus a good or bad man?
Jesus plainly stated that he was more than a good man. He said: "I am God's Son." (John 10:36) The most reliable testimony came from God himself. He twice said concerning Jesus: "This is my Son." (Matthew 3:17; 17:5) Just think: The Scriptures report only a few occasions when God's own voice was heard on earth-yet on two of them he affirmed Jesus as his Son! This is by far the best proof that Jesus was who he said he was.
Who is your father God or Jesus?
God Aswer 1: Jesus is not God. God is God. Jesus is prophet of god. Don't get confused. Jesus himself never told anyone that his God. He told people to worship God not him. People got confused through out the time and said that Jesus himself is God. Answer 2: What is it about father of God? God doesn't need a father for good sake his a God. If God has a father, than he's just a human. God does not reproduce. There's only 1 god, him, he alone. He's good enough to create everything in this world, I don't think he needs his father to create him. Answer 3: first off, Jesus is God. however, there are three aspects, so to speak, of God known as the trinity. they are God the father, God the son, and God the Holy Spirit. its a 3 in 1 type thing. the spirit of Jesus has always been here and is part of God's spirit. as for your question, your father is God. jesus was God in human form and because he was human, was less than God the father, that is why jesus said to pray to God the father. but in spirit, they are one and the same. and Jesus did say that he was God: Jesus in John 8:58 claims to be the great "I Am" the holy name of God. but Jesus is a prophet of God as well.
Was Jesus who he said he was?
When he was asked, "are you the son of God?" he answered, "You rightly say that I am." (Luke 22:70)

Is Jesus gods son?
1. Jesus is not God's son in a physical sense, as though God had a physical body and impregnated Mary. 2. Jesus is eternal as God the Father is eternal. He is the expression of the heart of God, and as such always streams forth or pours out from God, since God's heart or essential nature has always existed. In this sense, God is said to generate Jesus, but there is never a time when Jesus did not exist. 3. Jesus is spoken of as the Son because he always does the will of God the Father in all situations, therefore being in that sense an obedient son. Yes, Jesus is God's son. "and behold, a voice from heaven said, 'this is my beloved Son, With whom I am well pleased.'" Mathew 3:17 E.S.V. Christian view Yes he is Muslims viewNo Jesus (Peace be upon him) was not son of God. He is one of the 5 greatest prophets (namely: Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad; peace be upon them). Refer to question below. ========== The Bible says Jesus is God's son. Not sure how he is the Father of Jesus' physical body but he clearly was - Mary was a virgin - not having "known" man - when Jesus was born. Some kind of artificial insemination? If he could bring Adam into being something as simple as adding half the chromosomes to an egg would be trivial by comparison.
Which commandment pertains to god?
Genesis 20:3 "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Jesus was upset with the Pharisees in John 10:34 and said "I said you are gods."
What are the sacred signs in which we meet Jesus and receive from his share in God's life?
There is nothing secret about Jesus or Christianity. The Bible makes it clear. If you want to 'meet' Jesus or share in the life God has provided through Jesus then you must be born again (born spiritually). Read John chapter 3, John 3:7 Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.'
