Please tell which two scriptures Peter consulted when he realized that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God?

I can see what you all are doing. Even when Scriptural truths are presented that Jesus was not God (even the words out of his own mouth) you deny them. You state no proofs are being presented when in fact they are.

I don’t think most of you are interested in the Truth. You are interested in proving how right you are, even when you are very wrong.

Those who want to know the Truth will know it. And will not be confused by those who pass off man-made doctrines as if they were from God.

God said Jesus is his Son. What could be clearer than that?

>>Please tell which two scriptures Peter consulted when he realized that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God?<<

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Immanuel - from im and el (with us is God)

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Daniel 7:13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. 14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

Then Jesus identified himself as that “son of man” who would be “coming in the clouds of heaven”.

Mark 14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

Those who deny that Jesus was truly God and truly man deny what both the Old and the New Testaments say. Jesus said that those who denied His words will be judged on the last day.

John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

Unless you understand that Jesus was truly man and speaking as a man at times and that He was also truly God you cannot you will be judged with those who denied His words.

There are no scriptural proofs that Jesus was not God...There is plenty of scriptural proof however that the Holy Spirit, Jesus and the Father are 3 separate entities...And there is abundant scriptural proof that those 3 are also one entity...

You are telling us that God can't or wouldn't do that...God says otherwise...We believe God...

And the Son said that he and the Father are one...That's just as clear...Apparently you're are convinced that you can only pick one of those to believe...We don't have that burden...We believe both...
