Many Christians have been taught and believe that Jesus Christ is Almighty God because he actually forgave sins while he was on earth. Does forgiving sins mean that Jesus is God? Let’s analyze the scriptures objectively, and see for ourselves.

Mark 2:5-7 – “When Jesus saw their faith, he saw to the  paralytic, ‘Child, your sins are forgiven.’ Now some of the scribes were sitting there asking themselves, ‘ Why does this man speak that way?

“LORD [Yahweh], are you not from everlasting? My God, my Holy One, you will never die” (Habakkuk 1:12 NIV)

Again, contrary to the Trinitarian assertion that without Jesus being God, then his blood is “ordinary”, and could not atone for sins, we see clearly stated that Jesus’ blood is precious, and does indeed atone for our sins. Why? Because, “God cannot be tempted” (James 1:13 NIV).  Jesus is the only one who has
