well, in a linear context it is useless to talk of the will being anything other than free. However, the freedom of the will is a very important concept in many philosophical and metaphysical systems.
I don't doubt this. I haven't studies much into this. Any basic theology/philosophy courses you'd recommend?

I went into university as a sociology major, until I took intro to phil and intro to poli sci. I realized that the possible world of truth was far greater than I had ever imagined, and was in a constant state of mind blow. I suggest getting an intro to philosophy book, like this one:

So then you consider both Mohammed and Jesus on equal footing. Good. So let me ask you this next - look at this list:

1. Jesus
2. Mohammed
3. David Koresh

All three of these men claimed to be prophets and to receive messages directly from God. What criteria are you using to say that one is greater than the other, or has a more valid message?
You forgot David Icke. He is at least worthy of a top 3 place.

I did not read all this thread. I do know that Jesus himself actually claimed to be God.


Now whether or not you believe him is another question.

Yes Jesus was God in the flesh. But he was also his son. Wait I am confused? I need to read my Bible more often.

God in the flesh is referred to as The Son of God. Though they are the same person. Just as the Holy Spirit is God.

The Trinity is hard enough to explain and I think the best way for God to explain it was to call Jesus his son and for Jesus to call himself the son.


Jesus actually claiming to be Yahweh refutes all other claims that he was just the son.  If Jesus would have never made this claim then I could see where the confusion would lie.

Homoiousianism which maintained that the Son was "like in substance" but not necessarily to be identified with the essence of the Father.

Homoianism which declared that the Son was similar to God the father, without reference to substance or essence. Some supporters of Homoian formulae also supported one of the other descriptions. Other Homoians declared that God the father was so incomparable and ineffably transcendent that even the ideas of likeness, similarity or identity in substance or essence with the subordinate Son and the Holy Spirit were heretical and not justified by the Gospels. They held that the Father was like the Son in some sense but that even to speak of ousia was impertinent speculation.

Heterousianism (including anomoeanism) which held that God the father and the son were unlike in substance and/or attributes.

As a whole christians don't all agree there are more theories
