What if God was one of us.

Don't forget Sister Jesus is a human being.  

Jesus Christ was partial human being and He was God as well when He was on this earth. He is now 100% God.

I think your wrong sister. Jesus was never partial human being. He was fully human and fully God. And he still is

I think that Jesus will forever be God-man. He sacrificed for us. Jesus now does not have a human body that we have on earth. He has a heavenly body which is imperishable.

And he was and is and will always be PERFECT!  Jesus walked the earth a sinless man.  Fully man fully God!  He is NOTHING LIKE US.

That is why the song is so offensive !!  This is exactly the kind of thing that brings God down to  lesser in peoples depraved minds. The song is veiled in massive deception. It is not agreeing with  Gods character but it has lessened him to being like us.  He certainly isnt  "one of us" . We are not righteous on our own. We are a wicked people. We are helpless w/o the LORD! We are perishing for denying the LORD.

God is the Alpha and the Omega the creator of all things great and small. God is Majesty! God is Sovereign!  God is and always has been and always will be GOD . God has the power to destroy both the body and the soul. Last I checked, I bow to him and not the other way around.

God is only IN US  and certainly not one of us.   God is not in everyone. He has given us his word to deem who is his and who isnt and how to  get there! 

Another reason the song makes my stomach turn: The pope is last person the LORD is going to fellowship with! He will judge him straight to hell because he  is the picture of everything that opposes Christ! The pope sits at the top of a faith that is  filth and lucre! He is the  choir boy for the synagogue of Satan.

I do see your point. Jesus had a human body on earth but he was sinless unlike a human.Jesus had to be born under the law. He had to shed His blood for our sins which required a human body with flesh and blood. Yes, the idea of bringing Jesus Christ down to our level is offensive. A "worldly" song?

Does anyone remember the song what if God was one of us ? I love that song so much. For some reason I feel like God is sitting right next to me when I listen to it. The part where it says what if he was sitting on a bus making his way home. Then I thought of Jesus making his way to Lazarus and Martha and Mary's home. Sitting with them. What if Jesus was one of us making his way home to us ? I think he does everyday.  It brings tears to my eyes to think of him making his way to us. He has a face that i think would show his expectation while he is making his way home to us. I can just see him. He would not look like somebody so high and mighty but like someone who was one of us just like the song. Now people he is of course high and mighty. But he is also lowly and meek and kind. I can prove that,he wants to be with me Wayne. He has to be lowly then lol. But Jesus is a friend. If we have no friends we do have one friend who makes his way to us. I do have some friends but i know if i was alone without friends my true friend who cares for me as I am. He sees my faults and my pitiful selfishness. He just keeps trying to awaking me to be like him. The part of the song yes yes God is great yes yes God is good is singing so true of God. I do love this song.  I know it's not really a Christian song but it surely expresses God's goodness.

I like Spirit in the Sky myself

Sorry you got offended.  The song is not christian.  Maybe I take the meaning God is one of us in a different way then you. I don't mean in a sinful way at all. I mean in a human way. I show that in my post when I said I could see Jesus on his way to Lazarus home where he would fellowship with them. He is one of us because we belong to the Trinity. And Jesus  (God) is a human being one of us. You cannot prove the RCC is the church of satan.sorry but that's fundamentalist nonsense. There are true Christians in every church. The tares and the wheat abide together till the end of the world. We bow to God yes. He is over all. But Christ is human too.

Php 2:5 ESV Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

Php 2:6  who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

Php 2:7  but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

Php 2:8  And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Php 2:9  Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,

Php 2:10  so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

Php 2:11  and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

God did become like one of us but without sin.  

Now we must reflect Jesus to all and stop being the bratty little kids.  Believe me, I have cared for street people and the indigent in the hospital. The odors did get to me of sick people and unbathed people.  But I had to see their need not just for sanitation but for nutrition and health, their pain and fatigue, illness, and sin.  All of these things Christ died for.  He bore our infirmities and our human condition.  And He has compassion.  

 Mar 2:17  ESV And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.”
