So if people say Jesus is God then how come a LOT of people saw him and they didnt die right then and there?
they didn't die, because Jesus took on the Nature of God. He was clothed in human form so ppl could see Him and not die.
Hebrews 2:14
John 14: 28
Philippians 2: 5-8
Colossians 1 :15
John 17:11,18,21
Exodus 33:18-23
Exodus 34: 29-30,33-35
i didnt see what hebrews had to do with the subject.
in john jesus says the father is greater then it seems like he's saying he is not god and so as to not have him god and the holy ghost being one brought up that idea was made by pagans.
in Philipians in 6 it says who although he [ jesus ] was existing in god's form gave no consideration to a seizure, namely that he should be equal to god. 7 no but he emptied himself and took a slave's form and came to be in the likeness of men. so it says jesus Should Be equal to god but i guess the should be says he isnt just like god and it supports it in john 14 when it says [ the father is greater then i am ]
collosians says he is the image of the invisible god the firstborn of all creation or it says he isnt god again because god made all creation and the thing the image is showing has to be made before the image.
John again i dont know what to say of this but it says jesus and god are the same again but i believe he means that their the same in knowledge of good and bad not power because of the[ he is greater then i ] thing in the other john. and also jesus saying let the desciples become 1 just as we are, so how could ordinary beings become 1 being? so that supports the idea that jesus and god are 1 in purpose.
Exodus 33 i dont know what this has to do with the subject but i guess he did see god and then his face got all shiny but i guess you can only not see his face. but i still dont see how it proves jesus is god.
Exodus 34 i guess it just says his face has god's glory all over it and it was too bright to behold but still it doesnt mean the same thing wouldnt happen if it was power all over his face.
well theres all i say to improve my case and just to tell you i believe that jesus is god's son and god is named Jehovah and if you would like to know more go to
