Do you believe that God became a man a son of man?
Jesus, the son of God, took on humanity, and became a man. He is also the son of man, which was a title used to refer to the Messiah throughout the OT. You are mixing up two different titles/states with that sentence.

Do you believe Jesus is God?
 
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man,
that he should lie;
neither the son of man
,
that he should repent:
hath he said, and shall he not do it?
or hath he spoken,
and shall he not make it good?
Who would tell you and the rest of the Christians
that this is not true that God became a man a son of man?

Who told Eve…

You will surely not die after God told her she would die
if she ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil?
 
I believe Numbers 23:19. I just don’t believe what you have to say about it.
I do not have anything to say about it.
I just read it word for word.

Like this for example…

God is not a man.

That needs not to be explained to me.
I understand it.

Who would tell you John was a liar when he said the Word, Jesus, became flesh?

It is not written Jesus became flesh.
You have added to it the name Jesus in place of the Word.

Please stick with the exact words as it is written
when asking me a question about scripture.
 
I actually think the numbers passage pretty clearly implies the fallen nature of man, in other words God cannot do evil.

OP, the entire bible has to be read in historical, cultural and litererary context while bearing in mind that it has been translated from an ancient language. The Catholic church does not believe that the story of creation in 6 days is a literal account for example. Another example is that the KJV bible makes reference to unicorns. The word was taken from the Latin translation unicornis, which came from a Greek word meaning ‘one horn’. The passage in Hebrew actually might refer to a rhino or horned cow, but no reason to think God is talking about mythical horses.

And needs no explanation.

If God thought it needed to be explained
He would have explained it.
 
I do believe John 1:14.

How come you did not answer my question?
So you are willing to toss out the entire New Testament for your erroneous thinking?
Dying the divinity of Christ…that’s pretty serious.
Or are you just trolling?

Seems we have a lot of that around here this week.
 
Are we talking about whether the entirety of the Godhead is a spirit and hence not male in a literal sense, or is the OP talking about the Arian heresy?
It seems to me, if understanding serves, that the issue is not maleness per se but human-bodiedness.

Which is only an issue, either way, if one rejects the Incarnation.

I am willing to discuss with you
any verse from the new testament when you post it.
 
Better your should read it.
Jesus explains Himself pretty well.
