Gene,

John 1:14 clearly identifies the Word as Jesus, who is the only begotten of the Father.

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

Hi Proclaimer,

You: Likewise, we know that the Word was theos means the Word was divine as there is no definite article in John 1:1c.

Me: I agree.

Hi LU,

If Jesus is Yahweh, then that would contradict Isaiah 45:5.

“I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
Besides me, there is no God.” Isaiah 45:5

The Bible is a harmony.
So Hebrews 1 has to fit with Isaiah 45:5

If you disagree, then please tell me who is speaking in Isaiah 45:5?
If you say the Father and the Son together, then…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

I finally got it.
God is not a nature. He is an identity.
Thanks for making that clear.
It’s very hard to think clear sometimes because of
the things we were being indoctrinated in our past.

Hi Carmel,

Thanks for your post.

@Lightenup

Hi LU,

I have to correct my statement.
There are manuscripts that calls Jesus with the article “THE only begotten God” in John 1.18.
And some without the article.
Does this make any difference?
Well, I have to study that a little bit more.

@Lightenup

Hi LU,

Thanks for your answer.
I believe that Jesus is an only begotten God.

There is no article in the greek.

Do you believe that Jesus is Almighty God or a lesser God?

@t8

Hi Proclaimer,

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

But the question is if He is also God or just a god?

The Bible is the inspired Word of God​.
The Hebrews didn’t develop their God to be the only God.
Yahweh was and is the one and only God.
“I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
Besides me, there is no God.” Isaiah 45:5

Gene,

I have found a very clear quote from Irenaeus.
He said in his Book Against Heresies, 4.5.2.
“Christ Himself, therefore, together with the Father, is the God of the living, who spoke to Moses, and who was also manifested to the fathers.”

What about that?
If you reject that, then you are cherry picking.
That’s not very hones…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

You: Irenaeus taught that the Father is the only God

Me: Irenaeus also said in his Book Against Heresies 1.10.1.
“Christ Jesus, our Lord, and God, and Saviour, and King, according to the will of the invisible Father”

Well, what do you make of that statement?

Hi Gene,

You: Irenaeus. (CD. 185 AD). is exactly right, he has presented the truth correctly,

Me: Irenaeus also said in his Book Against Heresies 1.10.1.
“Christ Jesus, our Lord, and God, and Saviour, and King, according to the will of the invisible Father”

Well, what do you make of that statement?

Hi Adam,

You: Are Yahweh and El the same god OR different gods?

Me: Isaiah 45:5
I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
Besides me, there is no God.

Hi Adam,

I hope you will repent of your stubborn and rebellious heart and
believe in the Bible.
Because the Bible is the Word of God.

God bless,

Danny

Hi Adam,

If secular scholarship contradicts the Bible then
we have to reject secular scholarship.
Because the Bible is the Word of God.
The Hebrews didn’t develop their God to be the only God.
Over and over again Yahweh himself said that He is the only true God.
Believe Him or not.
It’s your decision.

Hi Adam,

So what you are saying is that we can’t trust our Bibles today?

God was not able to protect His Word?

@gadam123

Hi Adam,

The Bible is a harmony.
So Deuteronomy 32 has to fit with Isaiah 45 for example.
Let’s read Isaiah 45:21,22

“Declare and present it.
Yes, let them take counsel together.
Who has shown this from ancient time?
Who has declared it of old?
Haven’t I, Yahweh?
There is no other God besides me, a just God and
a Savior.
There is no o…[Read more]
