They probably don’t want to offend Muslims with a Christian concept of Jesus — but even yet one would think the system would ask whose idea of Jesus you meant, offering the most common possibilities for that idea first — the best a soulless system could do.

As Jesus Himself asked, “Who do you say that I am?” He left Himself open to being looked at through various ideas.

There was an answer to that question and needs to be in context. The question was rhetorical, not open ended as if people could put anything in the blank.

“You are the Christ.”

In post 4, you wrote, “As Jesus Himself asked, “Who do you say that I am?” He left Himself open to being looked at through various ideas.”


Best to always read the Bible in context. In the next line after the one you quoted above, Peter answers Jesus saying, “You are the Christ.” Elsewhere Jesus says, “I and my father are one.” All the apostles that Jesus gave authority to speak in his name said Jesus was the Christ, son of God, and presented that position several times to large groups. This is just a touch of what is found in the Bible showing Jesus is the son of God (part of the Trinity).
