Luke 22:42

It is very weird to me that Christ wanted something different than God while he was praying this prayer.  As I sit here and think about Christians who will tell you that the Trinity is a lie, I finally have an argument that I don't believe can be matched.

When Christ is praying He does not pray to God as if referring to Himself.  He goes beyond that and even admits to not desiring the same thing that God desires.  I feel that if you are the same person as who you are talking to and you (the one talking) want a different thing than what you (the one you’re talking to) wants then that either makes you insane or else a different person.

Now since I feel this way, and I do not want to call Messiah insane, crazy, or schizophrenic I will instead say that I feel as if Yeshua had a separate desire than God at this time.  These two different desires make him a separate being in my opinion.

Do I feel as if Christ is God, yes!  Do I feel as if Christ is God the Father, no.  Do I feel as if His impact in any of our lives is lessened by him disagreeing with another part of the Trinity, no!  Do I feel as if Christ was wrong to disagree with God, no.  Christ never once showed an inkling of disobedience while here on Earth.  If he would have not taken the cross like They had planned sin would have occurred.  However, He would not have started disobeying when His mission was almost fulfilled.

I don’t know how theologically sound this argument is because I do not know that much about theology, but I am open to suggestions, ridicule, love, hate, or any type of conversation on this topic.  Let’s chat…

Luke 22:42 "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done."
