JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD?

[gollamudi]

Let's come back to the Topic ” Logos”.

Bumped for newer member

[gollamudi]

Hi Mandy,
Thanks for bumping. Of course you might have meant it for Pulivarthy, he is my friend from India a believer of Trinity.

I want the attention of brother Nick on Jn 1:1
If he believes the 'word' was another apart from the person God then he is making two Gods in the beginning.

Love to you
Adam

Hi GM,
For us there is one God, the Father.
Jesus tried to help men get over this stuff.

Speaking of men in Jn 10 he said

33The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

34Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

35If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

36Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

Get over it.

[gollamudi]

May same Jesus help you to know that his Father alone is the True God.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
Is the Father, the only true God, not your God?
He is mine.
Words should not cause you to stumble.

[gollamudi]

Same is true with you my brother I am trying to say the same.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
Then tell us what Jesus meant in Jn 10 when he quoted scripture calling men gods.

[gollamudi]

Judges or people who are appointed by God which does not make them True God.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
True.
So what are you trying to say?
Did you think Jesus was the one true God?
We do not.

[gollamudi]

I don't make him at all you people are making Jesus God by saying he was existing as a person who was 'word' in the beginning with God.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
So what if others were with God too?
God did use the word “US” when He spoke of making man.
The sons of God rejoiced when the foundations of earth were laid so they were there too.[jb38]

[gollamudi]

Elohim(gods or angels) were with God.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
How can you say that having been so anxious to say so a minute ago?

[gollamudi]

What god or angels?

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
So GODS were with God?

[gollamudi]

I take the meaning of Elohim as 'angels' here than 'gods' which all of you claim. Angels were with God when He laid the foundations of the world no Gods my brother.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
So you withdraw your previous post?
Make your mind up .

[gollamudi]

Please see my post I was referring the word 'Elohim” which was meaning as 'angels or 'gods'.
I always prefer the apt meaning to the context which is 'angels' than 'gods'.

[NickHassan]

Hi GM,
Apt, or doctrinally driven?
