Was Jesus begotten or created?

, , Bible Doctrine, , 25,905

 

Jesus is the Word of God

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning…

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. And we beheld His glory, a glory as of an only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. 

Definition of ‘Created’

“Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” 

By this we know the Word was not made as it couldn’t came through him or it if he or it didn’t exist.

Definition of ‘Begotten’

Means fathered. Directly from the Father. Begotten of the Father.

Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee…

Conclusion

Whatever was first had to be begotten in order for all that followed to be created.

Whatever, whoever was first had to come from God’s own nature because there was nothing else but God to be derived from. He is the image of God.

But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.

    Hi Oxy,

    Seems like you're close to the Trinity doctrine.  Why don't you just accept the conclusions of the church that have been accepted for 1500 years?

    Hi CB:

    You say:
    The Bible says that there are three deities. Believe the Bible!

    And my bible says:

    4:6
    One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

    And also,

    1Ti 2:5
    For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

    Are these verses of scripture in your bible?

    God Bless

    Hush oxy,
    The first law of trinitarianism is to agree and to pretend unity and to oppose those who put scripture first. Do not speak either of the bitter hatred that has led to mass murder among the denominations.

    Isa 9:6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

    It seems that you have a problem here 94, because Jesus The Mighty God is referred to here as The everlasting Father.

    One God means one Godhead. The Godhead is our Father, so is each Person within, though One holds the “office” of “The Father”.

    There is one Godhead, and one mediator between the Godhead and men.   Jesus Christ our mediator, was incarnate as a man yet He was still God.

    Hi CB,
    You lose company even on the wide road with your personalised doctrines.

    Three versions of trinity belief on this page yet they claim unity.

    One God means one Godhead. The Godhead is our Father, so is each Person within, though One holds the “office” of “The Father”.

    And I say:

    I believe that you are a little confused and are trying your best to confuse me, but I know what “ONE GOD” means.  You say that “ONE HAS THE OFFICE OF FATHER” and then you refer me to a scripture that Jesus name will be called by several titles including “THE EVERLASTING FATHER”.  So then you are saying both are Jehovah the “ONE GOD” and if Jesus is the “EVERLASTING FATHER”, then both share the office of FATHER”.

    It is pointless to discuss the scriptures with you.  You won't admit your mistakes.  You said that there are “THREE DIETIES”.

    Ephesians 4:6 states very clearly that there is:
    One God and Father of all, who is above all (including Jesus), and through all, and in you all.

    Anyway, I love you and desire the very best that God has for you and your family.  I pray that God will give you revelation knowledge in the truth of his Word.

    God Bless

    Hi CB,
    So you say there are three persons in God and one of them is The Father.
    Then you say all have the office of Father but are unable to show three.
    So the Father is just a a meaningless office to you and God is not a father?
    Actually God is the father of Jesus by His own Spirit.

    Nick, here is a Scripture that might help you.

    Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatever I have said to you.

    If the Holy Spirit and the Father were one and the same, would the Father send Himself? And would the Father travel under His alter ego, ie the Holy Spirit?

    And if the Holy Spirit is not an identity in His own right, why did Jesus say whom instead of it?

    I have quoted the following Scripture also in the past, but you seem to prefer to put your own interpretation on it.

    Joh 16:13 However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth. For He shall not speak of Himself, but whatever He hears, He shall speak. And He will announce to you things to come.

    The Holy Spirit is called He six times in this one verse and these are the words of Jesus.

    He is the Spirit of Truth
    He will come
    He will guide
    He will speak
    He will hear
    He will announce

    What more do you need?

    Hi w,
    1cor 8
    ' 1Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

    2And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

    3But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

    4As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

    5For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

    6But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.'

    No need for inference.
    God speaks.

    So are you saying Jesus just “inferred” that the Holy Spirit is He?

    Jesus said it, it is recorded in Scripture. That is good enough for me. If you want to disbelieve Jesus and Scripture then there is no hope for you.

    Hi Oxy,
    Look at Acts 5 and you will see that the Holy Spirit is as God on earth. God did not spawn His Spirit as another person.
    The Holy Spirit proceeds from God.

    You are so right in your own eyes Nick that you can't see the web of deception that has engulfed you. The Scripture I quoted is very plain, but you chose to ignore it.

    This is why I stopped coming here before. There are none so blind as those who will not see.

    Hi Oxy,
    That is one approach when what you teach is your own doctrines.
    Another is to check them against what is revealed.
    Then you may learn to abide.
    Our lord told us to.
