If the one true God calls the only begotten Son: “God” and “YHVH our Righteousness” then it is so.

Heb 1, Jeremiah 23:6.

Bump for Gene to clarify:

Jodi,

If you walk in Jesus’ ways, you too will serve your head as Jesus did his.

Jesus served his “head” and we are to do likewise and follow our head in the same manner. The head of man is Christ. If we do well, we ultimately serve both the Father and the Son.

Gene, who does “Adonoi ” refer to, the Almighty God or a human ruler?

Gene,

Would you be interested in how the Shema is sung by the Jews here:

Gene,

You said this to Berean:

Berean…..Again, your mixing up the “word” God, Which is a discriptor of a relationship, with the “word” LORD, A “PERSON”.

YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND IT AS THE “LORD” is,  “the person,” who is our “GOD”,  “which describes our relationship,   with that person.”  Just as Jesus said when he quoted the SHERMA.
THE LORD “…

Gene,

You said:

IT’S just that simple, anything  you believe as the “Power” you lean on and trust in” is your GOD, even if it is not the “TRUE” GOD, that you are trusting in.

Who is this talking about as having the “Power” now:

Ephesians 1:18I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the…[Read more]

@t8

You said: The God of this world is not the God of the cosmos.

This will tell you who is in charge of this world/age.

Ephesians 1:18I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, 19and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who…[Read more]

@t8

You said: Jesus Christ is Lord and God made him Lord. For us there is one Lord, the Lord Jesus Christ.

I say:

Jesus Christ is the theos who is our one Lord with the theos who is our one God, they alone created the heavens and the earth as YHVH.

Great post Berean! I hadn’t seen Ephesians 3:9 in a while. Good to see you back.

Blessings, LU

Gene,

Actually it was The LORD “our” God that said “there is “No” God besides me.”

@t8

Regarding this post:

LU:Who is the next highest theos?

t8:Jesus Christ the son of the living God who is called the Word of God is the highest appointed living being. There is none above him, only the Father. In other words he is not the one true Theos and the Most High. He is his son. While he is not God, he is the most like him. So like him…

@t8,

Can you please respond to this regarding John 1:1:

You have been told many times that the theos in “the word was theos” is a noun. You keep using it as an adjective.

@t8

You said: Only one theos is the most high. That is the Father.

Who is the next highest theos?

@y8

You said:

As for gods, they are a dime a dozen. And not all gods are false. There is the one true God. God of this world. Even Jesus said, “ye are gods”. When you understand the usage of theos, then the confusion will disappear. If Theos to you means the only true God in every instance, then yes, you will remain confused and may need to res…

@t8

You said:

John 1:1 doesn’t lead us to reconcile two as God.

It simply states that the Word was with God in the beginning and that this Word was what God created all things through. The Word is theos means the Word was divine.

You have been told many times that the theos in “the word was theos” is a noun. You keep using it as an adjective. S…[Read more]

@t8

Can you state this in other words because I don’t understand what you are getting at:

Again, scripture is not telling us that we need to reconcile Jesus as God so I don’t need to bother doing that.

Thanks, LU
