1.2.3.9
Because he was
called " Lord "?
Was Jesus God because people addressed him as
"my lord." Not according to the Bible. In the Bible we find that
this was a common practice with many others besides Jesus. For
example:
Prophet Abraham:
"Therefore Sarah laughed within herself,
saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord
(Abraham) being old also?"
Genesis 18:12
Esau:
"And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall
ye speak unto my lord Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have
sojourned with Laban, and stayed there until now:"
Genesis 32:4
Joseph:
"And we said unto my lord, We have a
father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one;
and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and
his father loveth him."
Genesis 44:20
David:
"And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me,
my lord, [upon] me [let this] iniquity [be]: and let thine
handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the
words of thine handmaid."
1 Samuel 25:24
