Mike,Read the difference if the comma is removed:John 1:18 NIV18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father’s side, has made him known.John 1:18 NIV18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only who is at the Father’s side, has made him known.

John 1:1 calls the Word 'theos' who is with the theos and so it is very likely that only 17 verses later, 'theos' is the intended word who is in the bosom of the Father, not to mention that it is in the earliest manuscripts.

Mike,Quote They must avoid this part of the word “monogenes”, because they, being Trinitarians, don't like the implication that their God#2 was “begotten”. The Trinitarian creeds mention that the Son was 'begotten before the ages' so I don't think what you said is a true reflection of the Trinitarians. You really don't have a grasp on what that…[Read more]

t8,I'm not saying the Father and Son are are one being. They are two. Also, their original nature establishes the Father and the Son as divine and deity. Acquiring divine nature does not establish one as divine AND deity.

Pierre,Do you want a scripture that proves that Jehovah is still both God of gods and Lord of lords? You don't believe that Jehovah is still both, is that right?
Lightenup replied to the topic Delusions in the forum Truth or Tradition 13 years, 9 months ago
Thanks Pierre for confirming that you believe the delusion that Jehovah is no longer the Lord of lords in the NT.The truth is that Jehovah is still the God of gods and the Lord of lords and that Jesus is that Lord of lords. As a babe in a manger, He was Lord. He didn't become Lord when He became the King of the throne of David…He was Lord when…[Read more]

Quote Remember Kathi is quoting you in the section that is called DELUTIONS.It is called “Delusions” Pierre.
Lightenup replied to the topic Delusions in the forum Truth or Tradition 13 years, 9 months ago
Scriptural fact: In the OT, Jehovah is the God of gods and Lord of lords.Delusion: In the NT, Jehovah is only the God of gods and not the Lord of lords.

Mike,you asked:Quote Kathi, why is it that you can easily see the difference between Jesus and his servants, but not between God and His servant Jesus? Because Jesus' servants didn't get credit for creation (but Jesus and God do), salvation of all mankind (but Jesus and God do), aren't called the 'First and the Last,' (but Jesus and God are) raise…[Read more]
