'I am God and Not Man' (Muslims Distort Hosea 11:9)


SOME MUSLIMS are TRYING SO HARD to disprove the divinity of Jesus Christ by using verses like Hosea 11:9.

A MUSLIM, Vergilio Balgua Cerbito, posted in a thread in the FB group Answering Muslims: "OSEAS 11:9 SAPAGKAT AKO AY "DIYOS" .....DIYOS DIYOS DIYOS AT HINDI TAO...."HINDI TAO" ,,,,,HINDI TAO ... naiintindihan mo ba?????"

[HOSEA 11:9 BECAUSE I AM "GOD' .....GOD GOD GOD AND NOT MAN...."NOT MAN" ,,,,,NOT MAN ... do you understand?????]

A. DISTORTION
MUSLIMS are DISTORTING HOSEA 11:9 by quoting it ONLY PARTLY to show that God was denying that HE BECAME MAN as Jesus did.

If we read the verse IN FULL, we will see that GOD IS NOT DENYING that HE BECAME MAN.

HOSEA 11:9
I will not execute My fierce anger;
I will not destroy Ephraim again.
For I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst,
And I will not come in wrath.

When MUSLIMS quote the verse, they ONLY CITE "For I AM GOD and NOT MAN."

They DELIBERATELY DO NOT QUOTE the part which GIVES the REASON why God said He is "NOT MAN." That part which says, "I will not execute My fierce anger."

If we read the parts together, we will have "I will not execute My fierce anger ... For I am God and not man."

With that, we see that the verse is NOT A DENIAL of GOD BECOMING MAN but of God saying that HE DOES NOT GET ANGRY AS MAN DOES.

God denying that HE CAN BECOME MAN is SO MUCH DIFFERENT from God saying that HE DOES NOT GET ANGRY LIKE MAN.

Clearly, MUSLIMS DELIBERATELY MISQUOTE HOSEA 11:9 to MISLEAD and DECEIVE PEOPLE.

But WHAT KIND of a RELIGION is ISLAM if its MEMBERS WILLFULLY and KNOWINGLY DECEIVE OTHERS?

That is the question.

B. GOD BECAME MAN
While MUSLIMS DISTORT HOSEA 11:9 to deny that GOD can BECOME MAN, the verse actually tells of GOD COMING to HIS PEOPLE, which points to GOD BECOMING MAN.

The last two phrases of HOSEA 11:9 show God saying that He is "the Holy One in your midst. I will not COME in wrath."

GOD is ALREADY in the MIDST of HIS PEOPLE. HE is ALREADY PRESENT TO THEM.
And yet, GOD said "I WILL NOT COME in WRATH."

It tells of a FUTURE TIME when GOD will COME to HIS PEOPLE.

That FUTURE TIME is when GOD will BECOME MAN and be "GOD WITH US (Matthew 1:23)," which was fulfilled with the BIRTH of JESUS CHRIST--who is GOD the ONLY SON. (John 1:18)

When GOD THE SON became MAN, He DID NOT COME in WRATH or ANGER but in LOVE and MERCY. GOD THE SON even DIED on the CROSS to SAVE MANKIND.

  1. He did not die on the cross. The 4 gospels say " He is alive" Count how many alive word in the 4 gospels. He asked for food and ate to show you fools that he was alive he didn't die therefore not a resurrected body. He prayed to be saved and God saved him. Look for the verse where M Magdalene went to the tomb carrying 25 lbs of medicaments. She knew that JC was still alive. What is she gonna do with medicaments for a dead body?

    1. Sorry but your brand of selective reading will not work.

      Indeed, Jesus is alive. And that was before He died and after He rose again from the dead.

      Please read the Gospels properly to know the truth.

  2. There is no such thing as man- God or God-man. Or God cannot become man. That is clear enough if you use your tiny brain. You can make a computer table or chair but you can never be a computer table or chair.

    1. You are thinking as a man.

      God is God and He is all powerful.

      God chose to become man to save man. To believe that God is incapable of coming in the flesh would be to limit God.

  3. It's true that you really can't question God or that God is a trinity. Others couldn't grasp the thought of how God is described in the bible. Well, it is said in the BIBLE that God's foolishness is wiser than human wisdom. So you really can't say that something impossible could never be possible. :)

    1. When did Roman Catholics do a massive killing of humanity?

      Jesus truly warned in in Luke 19:27 that all who refused to accept Him as God and King will be slaughtered on JUDGMENT DAY.

      So, that is a stern warning to all who refuse to acknowledge the divinity of Jesus.

      I hope you already accepted Jesus as your Lord, God and Savior. For your sake.

  6. IF "FATHER", "SON" & "HOLY GHOST" ARE ONE

    With all the explanation Muslims have been given to Christians about the misunderstood statement of Jesus saying "I and my Father are One" which means Oneness in Purpose but they Denied and Proceeded with their Claims that Jesus is God himself.

  7. CHRISTIANITY: MEN WITHOUT RELIGION

    ISLAM: RELIGION WITHOUT MEN

    A Muslim never lacks proofs about the purity and truthfulness of his religion, but what he lacks are those truthful brothers who stand for Allah and His Prophet SAW testifying to the truth. Indeed, in this age, Islam is a religion without men (custodians and propagators) whereas Christianity is men without a religion; yet, by their endeavour, adventurous spirit, patience and monetary contributions they are able to falsify truth and make falsehood appear true. In this materialistic age most of humanity have become slaves to wealth, fashions, and mansions.

    There is none worthy of worship but Allah and in Him (Alone) do I put my trust, and towards Him am I destined.

  8. Paul vs Jesus & the Disciples


    ❖ Jesus said "Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. [Matthew 7:15]

    Paul was rejected by the Disciples of Jesus ☞ But when saul (Paul) had come to Jerusalem he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him and did not believe that he was a disciple [Acts 9:26]

    Paul cursed the disciples ☛ If we or an angel from heaven preach any other Gospel to you than what we have preached to you let him be a curse " [Gal 1:18]

    Paul complained to his Disciple Timothy ☛ This you know that all those in Asia (Disciples and real followers of Jesus) have turned away from me [2 Tim. 1:15]

    Paul killer of the Disciples ☞ Jesus said " He was a murderer from the beginning " [John 8:44]

  9. JUST ONE MESSAGE

    After the creation of Adam, just one
    original message has been repeatedly
    delivered to mankind throughout the
    history of humanity.
    Thus, to remind people about it and bring
    them back on track, many prophets and
    messengers including Adam, Noah,
    Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad
    were sent by the only true God to convey
    this message:
