NH.
You read the verse again because there are no commas in the original Greek.
1Cor 8
But to us there is but one God the Father,There is also one God the Son.
Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
It seems that you have changed your “one Lord” into two Lords.
There are actually three.
2Co 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit:
Try again.
December 23, 2006 at 9:38 am#35056NickHassanParticipantHi CB,
You say
“There is also one God the Son.”
There are no God the Son references in scripture so where do you derive this?

One of the biggests camels swallowed yet is that for us there are several Gods.December 27, 2006 at 6:42 am#35354Cult BusterParticipantThere are Three separate Beings, each God and equal with one another. Though they hold different offices, they are nevertherless each God.
Three Divine beings within the Godhead with three different offices they choose to perform,
H2O can exist in three different realities, yet remain H20
• Ice
• Liquid
• or SteamEach Person of the Godhead can choose a different office, yet remain God.
Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Isaiah 6:3 says, “And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.” Did you catch that? That's one “holy” for each person of the Godhead!
All praise to God the Father… God the Son Jesus Christ… and God the Holy Spirit! ALL Three merit perfect praise. Holy, Holy, Holy! If there is only one God they would not have repeated the worshipful praise three times.
Holy! Holy! Holy!

Quote (John 17:3) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. The person who raises this question is obviously assuming Unitarianism.
We note from the following verses in John that:
1.Jesus is God’s Son and also God along with the Father according to John 1:1 “and the Word was God” and Hebrews 1:8 and a multitude of other scripture. “But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.”
2.Jesus gives eternal life to all that God gives him, which is a claim to being absolute Deity since only God can give eternal life.
3.Jesus existed in glory with the Father even before the world was created.
4.Jesus demands to be glorified by God, something which no mere creature could ever demand.
5.Jesus states that everything that the Father has belongs to him, which makes him the heir of everything that exists.
6.Jesus indwells all the believers, an indication that Christ is omnipresent and therefore God since God alone is omnipresent.
7.Jesus is the object of the Father’s love even before the creation of the world.Thus, the context makes it clear that Jesus’ statement about the Father being the only true God in no way was meant to deny that Christ is God as well, since he goes on to make claims that only God could make.
Jesus is simply addressing the Father for being the only true God since this is what he truly is, and yet we know from the same Bible that the only true God exists as Three separate Persons. The Holy Scriptures plainly show that both the Son and the Holy Spirit are also truly God.
Therefore, since the one true God exists as a Godhead this means that the three Persons can be addressed as the only true God both individually and collectively.
Putting it another way:
•The Godhead is the only true God.
•Each specific member of the Godhead is the only true God.
•Therefore, the members of the Godhead are the only true God, whether individually or collectively.Rev 4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

The trinity doctrine does not state that in rank all of the Godhead are equal. But as far as the nature of God his substance and his essence the Father,Son and Holy Spirit is One and equal.
A Father may be greater in rank than a Son. But the Son is equal to the Father in nature, substance and essence. The Son is no less human than the Father.
Jesus is no less God than the Father.

Redeemed and sent from God, what goes up must come down.
Rev 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
Hbr 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
We must have the resurrection of life, and Christ and Daniel say both good and bad come forth from the grave, some to shame and they shall do wickedly, For time is granted by grace time to do so wandering stars in our love feasts ordained from long ago, that stain their robs again, after receiving the New life. Some are still asleep?
Other in Daniels resurrection are purified and made holy and lead many to righteousness. Working spirits blessed. They have the trinity or what ever!!!
What happened in the heavens then, at this time on earth like never before.
Before the throne a multitude of people praise of all the nations, wearing white robs washed clean from their sins
The old heavens was a place unrighteousness could enter, even Satan himself visited that is where God redeemed with Christs life all men that he died for all men? and saved them from the dust? to rise to judgment days, and no longer can unrighteousness enter and rest in the prepared place where the lamb and the father are the light off, but shall be out side.
So some cannot receive this saying, save to whom it is given?
Mat 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
A millstone tied around a neck will have been better for them, for satans dose not want any to hear his voice from the graves, and be made alive!
Jhn 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
Jhn 5:28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,And from the grave because that’s the only way one shall be renewed with the new Holy ghost, by the washing of the regenerations,
Tts 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Putting it another way:
• The Godhead is the only true God.
• Each specific member of the Godhead is the only true God.
• Therefore, the members of the Godhead are the only true God, whether individually or collectively.So, Jesus is called “God” or “mighty one” a few times. Jehovah, the Almighty is called God more than a thousand times specifically and hundreds of more times not so specifically.
How many times are we told that the holy spirit is God?
