Jesus Christ the Son of God exalted

Try this and think honestly:

Jesus Christ
Seated at the Right Hand of God
Acts 2:22-24, 32-36 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Until I make thy foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Verse 22 A man approved of God
Verse 23 crucified and slain
Verse 24,32 God raised him from the dead
Verse 33 God exalted him
Verse 34 God seated him at His right hand
Verse 36 God made him Lord & Christ
Jesus Christ was a man. He was approved of God, yet still a man. He was not one third of a triune God. He was the promised Christ. The man who would walk the walk the first man, Adam, failed to walk. He was crucified and slain - the true passover lamb chosen out of the flock (again a man) and sacrificed for our sins. He was raised from the dead by God. He did not raise himself. God raised him. He was exalted by God and sits today at God's right hand. God does not sit beside Himself. Jesus Christ sits at God's right hand. God has made Jesus to be our Lord and Christ. He walked the walk for us. He was our substitute and we have an identification with him.
The Right Hand
In the Bible the right hand is the hand of blessing. Gen. 48:13-19 tells how Joseph's younger son (Ephraim) received Jacob's blessing instead of his firstborn (Manasseh). Jacob laid his right hand on Ephraim signifying blessing. The right hand also is used to signify strength and salvation. Psalm 20:6 declares that "the Lord saveth ...with the saving strength of his right hand." God has placed Jesus Christ at His right hand to bless and to save us and to show forth His strength.
Intercession
I Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
I John 2:1b...we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
Romans 8:34...Christ, ...who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Jesus Christ sits at God's right hand as our advocate and mediator making intercession for us when we fail to live up to God's Word. He has taken our sins upon himself and now pleads our case to the Father continually. We do not need a priest or to perform sacrifices to purge our sins. Jesus Christ has accomplished it all and sits at God's right hand as our constant advocate.

Was Christ born(or created?) before he was born?
This doctrine is derived most prominently from the gospel of John, and in particular from the phrase in John 1:14 (KJV): "And the Word was made flesh…." But was "the Word" synonymous with "the Messiah" in Jewish understanding? Hardly. The Jews would have understood it to mean "plan" or "purpose," that which was clearly and specifically declared in Genesis 3:15—a "seed" of a woman who would destroy the works of the Devil. This plan of God for the salvation of man finally "became flesh" in Jesus Christ. This verse is not establishing a doctrine of Incarnation contrary to all prophetic expectations, nor a teaching of pre-existence. It is a teaching of God's great love in bringing into existence His plan to save mankind from their sin.
A pre-existent divine being taking on human flesh and being raised by regular human parents sounds so mythological that it has often been derided by critics, especially Jews and Muslims.

Haven't you figured out by now that Jesus Christ is not God!?
Matthew 1:18
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost [Holy Spirit]. “…before they came together” means that before Joseph and Mary had sexual intercourse Mary was already pregnant, and the child she was carrying was conceived in her by God, who is the Holy Spirit”.
THE GIVER and HIS GIFT -- The Holy Spirit is God(Jehovah) our Creator(Elohim). The God and the Father of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the offspring of God, only begotten, physically, by Divine conception of God, the Giver; Holy Spirit! God's gift is holy spirit, which is power from on high. We are baptized by this gift from God, the Giver.
Scripture tells us that God is “immortal,” which means “not subject to death,” but Jesus died. - 1 Timothy 1:17.

Jesus Christ was the offspring of Mary and God. Thus he was born with no sinful nature in him (as the life of the flesh which was corrupted by sin is passed from father to son by the seed of the father), yet he was totally a man. He had to grow and mature and learn to walk with God just as any other man. He had to learn of his mission to redeem man and he had to fulfill all the genetic requirements of the promised seed of the woman. He had to be a descendent of Adam, Abraham, and David. He was and is God's plan for the redemption of man. He is the only begotten son of God.

God is His WORD(LOGOS)! John 1:14 And the Logos was made flesh, . . . God's plan for restoring order was made or became flesh in the person of His son, Jesus Christ. God did not become flesh; His plan did. Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie . . . John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time . . . 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; How can God be a mediator between Himself and another party? Further, years after Jesus Christ's ascension and his installation at his Father's right hand - his Father still calls him a man; he was not God and did not become God. Jesus Christ is the first fruit of the dead with a new spiritual body, the same that the saved are promised.
The revolving god syndrome of our witty religuous folk: "oneness"!
How many sons have you known that became their father? How many fathers are their own son? HUH??
Sons are born by the natural process that God established in the beginning, and God can not transgress his own laws of nature, hence, Genesis 3:15, the promise, that is Jesus Christ today.

Christ makes known God - what do you think "the way" means anyway!
He is the faithful son of his literal Father, God; simple now hey?

Who do you say that i am!?

Matthew 16:15-17 KJV
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Trinitarians have three gods with one nature, while they say that Jesus has two natures(let them do the math here; and believe me, they sure will try). And we thought "common core" is bad! This theological heresy "takes the cake"; hands down at that(emphasized).
This is a monumental obstacle of the faith, and demonstrates great disrespect to the integrity of Christ's accomplishments, as well as stripping God of his rightful magnitude.
Now look at John 14:12 and tell me that you can relate to this truth!

John 14:12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

No! Nobody is gonna do works that is great, huh, GREATER?? than God!!

Mark 14:36
And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

Romans 8:15
For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Galatians 4:6
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
God is unchangeable, God is omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent.
. God is eternal and immortal; God can not die; God can not be born; God is Spirit; God has no form or comliness.
