Where in the bible does jesus claim divinity

Jesus Said He Was Equal to God. The Bible never records Jesus saying the precise words, “I am God.” That does not mean, however, that He did not proclaim that He is God. Take for example Jesus’ words in John 10:30, “I and the Father are one.” We need only to look at the Jews’ reaction to His statement to know He was claiming to be God. They tried to stone Him for this very reason: “You, a mere man, claim to be God” (John 10:33). The Jews understood exactly what Jesus was claiming—deity. When Jesus declared, “I and the Father are one,” He was saying that He and the Father are of one nature and essence. John 8:58 is another example. Jesus declared, “I tell you the truth … before Abraham was born, I am!” Jews who heard this statement responded by taking up stones to kill Him for blasphemy, as the Mosaic Law commanded (Leviticus 24:16).

Jesus Said He Existed Before Abraham.

"Your father Abraham rejoiced as he looked forward to my coming. He saw it and was glad."
The people said, "You aren't even fifty years old. How can you say you have seen Abraham?"
Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth before Abraham was even born, I Am!"4

Jesus Said to See Him is the Same as Seeing God
Jesus shouted to the crowds, "If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me. For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me. I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark."5

"No one can come to the Father except through me. If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!"
Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied."
Jesus replied, "Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don't know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you?"6

Jesus Said He Could Forgive Sins
"...that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he then said to the paralytic--"Rise, pick up your bed and go home." And he rose and went home. When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God..."7

He said to them, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins."8

Jesus Said He Is the Judge and Can Grant Eternal Life
"For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will. The Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father."9

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live."10

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand."11

"For it is my Father's will that all who see his Son and believe in him should have eternal life. I will raise them up at the last day."12

Jesus Said He Was the Same as God
"The Father and I are one."
Once again the people picked up stones to kill him.
Jesus said, "At my Father's direction I have done many good works. For which one are you going to stone me?"
They replied, "We're stoning you not for any good work, but for blasphemy! You, a mere man, claim to be God."13

¿A qué se debe que exportemos gran variedad de productos y no se industrializa en nuestro país el Ecuador? ¿por qué?

Mila [183]

Answer:

Los sombreros de esta empresa son parte de las exportaciones industrializadas que registra el Banco Central del Ecuador. Los envíos totales de sombreros representaron USD 7 millones, en el 2009, y USD 15,5 millones el año pasado. Es decir se incrementó el doble. “Son productos artesanales, pero el prensado se cumple con una máquina que la maneja un operario. Además tenemos el sello de calidad ISO 9001-2008”, explica la empresaria. Ortega sostiene que para posicionarse en el extranjero la estrategia pasa por manejarse con seriedad y elaborando productos de calidad. Esta táctica permitió que las ventas de la compañía crecieran un 25%, entre el 2013 y el 2014. Otro segmento que creció poco más del doble en los últimos seis años, en cuanto a sus exportaciones industrializadas, fue el de elaborados de cacao. Las exportaciones pasaron de USD 60 millones a 132 millones, entre 2009 y 2014. Una de las empresas que participa en este segmento es República del Cacao, que exporta a Perú, Canadá, Jordania, Chile, Colombia, Panamá, Estados Unidos, entre otros mercados. Su gerente, Gonzalo Chiriboga, cuenta que la estrategia es crear puntos de venta propios, en lugar de exportar a grandes cadenas. “Desarrollamos chocolate boutiques propias, localizadas en ubicaciones de alto tráfico como los aeropuertos de Bogotá, Lima o Cuzco. Hoy contamos con 19 boutiques en Ecuador, Colombia y Perú”. Adicionalmente, la marca cuenta con una red de vendedores especializados en colocar el producto en hoteles, restaurantes y pastelerías. El modelo de República del Cacao incluye un complejo proceso de control de las variables críticas del negocio, el trabajo en las plantaciones de cacao con 1 800 aliados finqueros, hasta el contacto con el consumidor en las boutiques de chocolate. Según la Asociación Nacional de Exportadores de Cacao, el sector cacaotero exportó alrededor de 238 000 toneladas el año pasado. De esa cifra el 84% fue cacao en grano; el 15,5% correspondió a productos semielaborados; y el 0,5% fue en producto acabado. Pero pese a que hay sectores como el de los sombreros, café elaborado, productos del mar o elaborados de cacao que han experimentado un crecimiento, de forma global, las exportaciones industrializadas han perdido peso en la canasta exportable global del país. La participación de los bienes industrializados exportados, en el 2009, era del 24%, un año después bajó a 22,6%. Este último porcentaje se mantuvo sin mayor variación en el 2011 y 2012, pero cayó a partir del 2013, al ubicarse en 19% y el año anterior bajó al 16,5%. Para Felipe Ribadeneira, presidente de la Federación Ecuatoriana de Exportadores, el peso de las exportaciones de manufacturas es bueno, pero pudo ser mejor. “Si se hubiera tenido una política exterior clara, si no nos tomábamos ochos años

How can an individual be freed from addiction? mention the measures

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Some of the measures one can take to free themselves from addiction are a steady job, creative work, avoiding the source of addiction and the company of addicts, surrounding oneself with support and love, and, if possible, getting professional help.

Explanation:

Individual who is suffering from the addiction problem of any kind (alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, gambling, etc.) can take the precautionary measurements to free themselves:

Stay away from the source of the addiction – this means avoiding whatever provokes their addiction, the substance or activity, and the places where they are performed and consumed
Stay away from the company of other addicts – people who suffer from addiction often are part of the group which encourages that type of behavior. The individual should leave the group, avoid people who suffer from addiction, and find better surroundings that will encourage safe and responsible behavior.
Find support in friends and family – as mentioned, the support is important, and one should get surrounded by people who can back them up and help them fight addictive behavior. These connections should be full of harmony, communication, love, and respect for feelings.
Have a steady job – Job is one of the best ways not only to keep the person occupied but to introduce them to a healthy society and healthy behavior. Finding a good job can be encouraging and provoke good feelings that will help in avoiding sources of addiction and the need for it.
Engage in creative work – many programs that help people fight addiction include creative work. It has been proven this is a good strategy to channel the emotions and get occupied, while also making something of value.
If possible, get professional help from a therapist, clinic, or design program – the professional help is not readily available for everyone, and can often be expensive, but if it is possible one should approach professionals who work on fighting the addiction. These people or programs should be trustworthy, one should feel safe and cared for by the therapists and doctors, and they should come from the individual’s own wish to get better.

The correct answer is ''a group comparison study.''

Explanation:

The group comparison study is the study of a group of people or organizations that have not participated in a public intervention, which is compared with a group that has participated, in order to analyze the net effects of the intervention. Whatever the mode of selection of the comparison group, its characteristics should be as similar as possible to those of the direct recipients. To do this correctly, the specific characteristics of each group must be described in depth at the beginning of the study.
