Hi Mike:The question you say is:Quote And the question is why JESUS, (not God who foreknew everything), would have referred to a glory HE HIMSELF HAD before the creation of the world. God told him that he was foreordained, and about the glory that he had with him from the beginning.Jesus refers to Psalm 110 here: Quote Mat 22:42 Saying, What…[Read more]
