Jesus, a perfect man?

Again, I want to share some opinion of a Christian in Facebook fanspage. He says, "Jesus came to earth to be a perfect man, not to demand worship as God." Do you agree or not? He quote Philippians 2:5-11 John 1:29-34 Luke 3:21-22

Jesus was definitely not a perfect being. He had his flaws and imperfections. For one thing, he considered himself superior to others. That is why he would always preach. If he was really perfect, then he would not have preached. A perfect man’s presence is enough for others to learn from him. Just his being is enough. He need not utter even a single word.

Why then He considered as God, Son of God or Holy Spirit? He is a human, give miracles by God to become a prophet.

It is difficult to explain. What I know is this. Jesus Christ is a great spiritual leader. He is God within himself and well, that is what I read about explation to Jesus Christ. I read it about NDE and OBE.

Hmm, that remind me to the lesson of Budha. The question now, do people able to become like Him?

Yes, I agree with your friend. As others have quoted, the Scriptures themselves tell us that Jesus did not come to be worshiped as God - at least while He was alive in human form. He was, above all, humble while being zealous about the Father and what He knew to be true.

Yes, he wanted to be worshiped "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." -Matthew 10:37

How about these verses? Mark 10:17-19 And as he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to him and knelt before him, and began asking him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"18 And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.” 19 You know the commandments, 'Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.'" Luke 18:18-23 And a certain ruler questioned Him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"19 And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.20 You know the commandments, 'Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your father and mother.'"21 And he said, "All these things I have kept from my youth."22 And when Jesus heard this, he said to him, "One thing you still lack; sell all that you possess, and distribute it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."23 But when he had heard these things, he became very sad; for he was extremely rich. He rejected the worship to Him.

Hi, I am Hindu. But I have heard about Jesus. Everything about him inspired me. I think Jesus came to earth to be perfect. but he didn't demand worship as God. I don't know anything about bible. But I respect Jesus and the christian religion and its teachings.

Jesus is a great man who I believe and love, respect him a lot and I agree with you. God is the only one, if we say Jesus is God then how about all those humans and the world and prophets who were before time of born of jesus? who made those in that time? so for me God is the only one . and Jesus is a great man of God.

No, he didn't : John " Eternal life that worship you alone are the true God, and Jesus Christ, who You sent)) John [20: 17] "go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God." Matthew [23: 9:10] "And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven, Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ." John [12: 49] "For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak." John [12: 49] "For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak." Matthew 5:16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven." 21: 7 "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." John [11:41:42] And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me . And I knew that thou hearest me always : but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. "

You could found so many of verses about it, sis. Cause the bible contains not only the words of God to Jesus and the prophets before Him through Gabriel/Jibril. But also, the words of Jesus to His disciples and the words of disciples to the people.
