Jesus, the SON of the God Almighty who is His Father in Heaven, here talking and answering questions about when the end will come.
NLT version in Matthew 24:36 (but read all of Matthew 24)
36 “However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.
Mark 16:19
19 When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 20 And the disciples went everywhere and preached, and the Lord worked through them, confirming what they said by many miraculous signs.
(If Jesus is our Creator God, is he now sitting next to Himself? Did he take himself up?) This is selling short both Jesus and His Father. This is not to be taken lightly by you and i as Jesus and His Father do not take it lightly at all.
If you are a regular reader of my blog here you will know that i chose to call Jesus’s Father in Heaven, Jehovah God Almighty. They are completely two separate entities/powers. Others may call our God our Creator, Yahweh or a myriad of other names as He Himself states he has many names he can and will go by. What ever He chooses. When we simply always refer to Him as “God”, that is selling Him short. God is only a title, such as “president” or “emperor”. Remember, Satan is described as “the god of this system of things”. Even presidents and emperors have names, so how can our Most High God not have a name? He has a name just like you and i do. It is best to pray to Him to share with you His name and get comfortable with it. Use it, He loves that, as it brings glory to Him of which He deserves.
I guarantee you it will bring you closer to Him both physically and in knowledge of Him and His Son Jesus.

For those who take Jesus as God, they should question than why God would have faked a death. God can not die but Jesus really did. In accepting his death as a ransom for our sin, recognising he is fully human (of flesh and blood) we shal be giving him the honour he is due and look forward to being judged by this man who is now mediator between God and man.

How can a person be two in one and say of the other that he is the son while he knows it is him and not be a liar or a fraud? God is no liar and we should listen to Him and accept what He tells us in His Word which is infallible. In it Jehovah God declares more than once that Jesus is His son.

If Jesus was God how did it come that all those who did see Jesus did not die, because in Scriptures God clearly says that those who see God die, because no man may see Him and live. (Exodus 33:20)
