My friend, there are numerous cases wherein Christ Jesus called God "Father".

Here are a few examples: Jesus gave them this answer: "Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. (John 5:19, New International Version)

"For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. (John 12:49, New American Standard Bible)

17 When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, 2 since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. (John 17:1-3, English Standard Version)

Why did Jesus say do not call anyone father on earth Mt 23 910?

Jesus said this to condemn pride and pretense. It is quite ok to call you dad father. Jesus was speaking of spiritual titles and giving undue spiritual authority to a human being, as if he were the the source of truth rather than God.


If Jesus of Nazareth is a member of the Holy Trinity is he also a God?

The question is asking if Jesus of Nazareth is a member of the Holy Trinity is he also a God? In the bible, Jesus Christ is know as other titles- see Isaiah 9:6 makes reference to Wonderful Counsellor, Redeemer and so forth..... Primarily, Jesus of Nazareth is known as the Son of God. He is also part of the Trinity as it says in Matthew 28V19 '19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,'. This scripture explains that he is part of the Trinity, this does not make him a God, but the Son of a God. it is through him that we are saved today and we worship him because of what he achieved on earth during his 3.5 years of ministry. We who call ourselves Christians have to live by his example. Jesus is represented in the bible as God's Son made in his image, therefore, Jesus is a member of the trinity, but he is not a God as such.


Who did God speak to in an audible voice in both the Old and New Testament?

If Jesus and God are one why did God kill?

God, according to Christian belief, is a benevolent and just deity. The concept of the Trinity in Christianity teaches that God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are distinct persons but one God. In the Bible, instances of God bringing about death are often seen as acts of judgment or as part of a larger plan for humanity's salvation.
