Hi JA,you say:Quote First up – I don't need to read what Ignatious, Tertullian, Erasmus, or Prosmetus said. They aren't in the Scriptures – so all that they said is pointless – might as well believe Stephen Hawkin or that one who claimed he found the secret of life and it's evolution – Darwin, or someone like that was it?If what John's disciple,…[Read more]

Keith,I think you have to look at the context. Tertullian puts it well:Quote I will therefore not speak of gods at all, nor of lords, but I shall follow the apostle; so that if the Father and the Son, are alike to be invoked, I shall call the Father “God,” and invoke Jesus Christ as “Lord.”79177917 Rom. i. 7.

Roo,Coming into being means a finished existence, not an unfinished existence. Foundations were being laid when the seas were being marked out, day 3. Read Proverbs 8.

Roo,I know Christ is divine and also man. When did the Son become the divine Son? You don't think He was the divine Son before the incarnation? The church father's do and I have shown you over and over.

Jack,No one before God the Father was formed and no other God, (a source of all things) came into being. The Son was not the source of Himself but came from the source. God is declaring that there is no other unbegotten God and anything coming into being would not be an unbegotten God like He was. The unbegotten God was the only true God and…[Read more]
