Transfigured | Jesus does NOT claim to be God in John 8:58 - Detailed Analysis @transfigured3673 | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This episode is about John 8:58 "Before Abraham was, I AM". I argue that this is a mistranslation and that Jesus is not making a claim to deity. I show that this passage does not support pre-existence or the deity of Christ but is perfectly compatible with a Biblical Unitarian perspective. I mention Melito of Sardis, Justin Martyr, John Chrysostom, John Calvin, Jordan Peterson, Kathy Newman, 2 Corinthians 3:4-18, John 3:14, Romans 12:4-5, John 6 Bread of Life, John 3 you must be born again, Nicodemus, John 4 The Samaritan Woman at the well, Prologue of John 1, John 9 healing of the blind man, Moses lifting up the serpent, BB Warfield, Charles Hodge, Exodus 3:13-15, Matthew 14:26 Jesus walking on water with Peter, John 20:30-3, Matthew 26:63-68, John 10:27-36 I and the Father are one, and many others as well.
