Let us study...
there is an on-going belief that Jesus was really just a man. He was made God after centuries later.
Is there a pattern where we can based this proposition? let's see...
The book of Mark was written 65-80
The book of Matthew was written 80-100
The book of Luke was written 80-100
The book of John was written 90-120
If you read the gospels starting from the earliest manuscript w/c is Mark, you will notice that Jesus was being portrayed as Man. Then as you continue you will see the progression.
Verses being added by the authors to show Jesus as son of god.
watch the progression and the alteration...watch it carefully...
In
Mark 1:1-The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
if you are using the NIV bible it says in the commentary below that in some manuscript the phrase " Son of god " is not found. hmmm?
Mark 8:29-But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ.
Matthew 16:15-16- 15"But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
kita mo sa addition? hehe
In mark...it only says " you are the Christ ", well christ could only mean anointed one, it does not have a strong emphasis on Jesus' Godhood.
BUT in Matthew...after the phrase " you are the Christ " naay addition " The Son of the Living God ". see the attempt to deify Jesus? tsk tsk..
Remember guys Mark is Older than Matthew and its been proven that Matthew used Mark as reference sa iyang pagsulat sa Gospel according to Matthew.
so after 15 years instead nga you are the christ, ni evolve na into you are the Son of god.
More to come.
exciting ni...kebs...
