FOR US, CHRIST HAS ENDURED THE CROSS
Having found himself in the position of a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient unto death, death on the cross. (Philippians 2.7-9)

Gene, YHWH is the god of gods, and therefore cannot literally be the only god.
Me
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
This is the only TRUE GOD that is important to consider along with the Lord Jesus Christ.

See it is true. The Trinity / Binity treat God as a substance or essense.
But God is a person / identity.

Precisely, because God is a person, HE HAS A SUBSTANCE THAT IS OWN TO HIM …
AND THE SON IS THE PERFECT REFLECTION OF THE PERSON OF THE FATHER ACCORDING TO HEBREWS 1: 3Berean replied to the topic John 1:1 in the forum Scriptural Teachings 4 years, 10 months ago
HI LU
Does God have essence or IS God essence? Can you answer that?
Or maybe you think that God does not have essence. It would be impossible for the Son to be the exact representation of the Father’s essence if He did not have any essence?
Undebunked.
AMEN LU
HEBREWS 1: 3 AFFIRMS THIS.

SINCE GOD IS OMNIPOTENT, WHY THEN MAKE A MIRACLE FOR HIS SON TO CREATE THE UNIVERSE WHEN HE CAN EVERYTHING.
THIS THESIS DOESN’T STAND UP … (that’s my opinion)THEN IN THE CASE ( This is what I believe) OR GOD HAS CREATED EVERYTHING BY HIS OMNIPOTENT WORKER, WHY WOULD HE CHOOSE TO ACT SO ????

God did not perform a miracle through his Son to create the universe. THE ONLY SON BEGOTTEN HAS INHERITED HIS FATHER’S ABILITY TO CREATE THE UNIVERSE.

But if you say that Jesus Christ is the Word that was with God before the cosmos, that he emptied himself and came in the flesh, was obedient to God, sacrificed for our sins as the Lamb of God, rose from the dead as death is defeated, and is now in the glory that he had with God before the cosmos, then you have zero…[Read more]
