“WHY DO YOU CHAGE ME WITH SAYING A VERY EVIL THIMG? IS IT BECAUSE I SAID, ‘I AM GOD’S SON’?” (We know that Scripture is always true.) “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.(Ps.46)… My heart is changed within me; all my compassion is aroused. I will not carry out my fierce anger, nor will I devastate Ephraim again. For I am God, and not a man—the Holy One among you. I will not come against their cities. They will follow the LORD; he will roar like a lion. When he roars, his children will come trembling from the west. They will come from Egypt, trembling like sparrows, from Assyria, fluttering like doves. I will settle them in their homes,” declares the LORD.(Hos.11)… “How long will you keep us waiting? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered, “I did tell you. But you do not believe. The kinds of things I do in my Father’s name speak for me. But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep. “My sheep listen to my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never die. No one can steal them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than anyone. No one can steal them out of my Father’s hand. 30 I and the Father are one.” Again the Jews picked up stones to kill him. But Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many miracles from the Father. Which one of these are you throwing stones at me for?” “We are not throwing stones at you for any of these,” replied the Jews. “We are stoning you for saying a very evil thing. You are only a man. But you claim to be God.” Jesus answered them, “Didn’t God say in your Law, ‘I have said you are gods’? (Psalm 82:6) We know that Scripture is always true. God spoke to some people and called them “‘gods.’” If that is true, what about the One the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why do you charge me with saying a very evil thing? Is it because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’? (John.10)
