GOD CANNOT DIE, JESUS DIED.
QUICK FACTS:
We all know and agree Jesus was a MAN.
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14.
We all know and agree Jesus was the SON of MAN.
For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS.1 Timothy 2:5.
Even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:28.
We all know, and agree Jesus DIED by sacrificing His own life and taking the penalty paying the price for everybody’s sin.
What did John mean by saying:
In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
John 1:1?
Well friends, I asked Mr Anthony Buzzard this same question, and He sent me an email saying:
Simon, Yes, We would say that Jesus is what the word and wisdom of God became!
Yes the word and wisdom of God became emodied in the Man Jesus
The Messiah lord not the GOD LORD, ie Luke 2;11 the Messiah lord.
One German put it this way “Jesus is what the word and wisdom became not one to one equal with the word.
Now we have beauriful harmony with Matt and Mark and Luke and the rest of the NT.

"No responsible NT scholar would claim that the doctrine of the Trinity was taught by Jesus, or preached by the earliest Christians, or consciously held by any writer in the NT" (A.T. Hanson, The Image of the Invisible God).

Friends, after years and countless debates, I now believe Mr Anthony Buzzard is correct and that I was wrong,
even though there are still a few mysteries.
The fact is if Jesus preexisted His flesh, then there would be countless contradictions throughout the Bible, and Jesus could not be 100% MAN if He preexisted His flesh, and Hebrews makes this very important fact clear that Jesus was NOT an angel, and that GOD did NOT speak THROUGH Jesus in the beginning until His arrival as a MAN.
1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the ages.
Hebrews 1:
Notice another false translation at the end of Hebrews 1:2?
English Standard Version
but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.
Trinitarians have added in the word world, when it should be ages, meaning GOD has spoke to us THROUGH His Son where He is (RE) creating the ages THROUGH His Son on His arrival and not before.
Notice how the Hebrews writer says: but in these last days, which is referring to the end of the verse (the ages) Hebrews 1:2,
that GOD is (RE) creating the ages (New Creation) THROUGH His Son.
This is referring to the new world to come, and the people who take up their cross and follow Jesus and who become the over-comers.
And this explains why GOD the Father has said countless times He is GOD alone who created ALL THINGS alone on His own.
English Standard Version
Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb: “I am the LORD, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself, Isaiah 44:24
For thus says the LORD, who created the heavens (he is God!), who formed the earth and made it (he established it; he did not create it empty, he formed it to be inhabited!): “I am the LORD, and there is no other. Isaiah 45:18
I am the LORD, and there is no other, besides me there is no God; I equip you, though you do not know me, Isaiah 45:5.
Notice once we understand the truth, knowing Jesus was not with GOD and did not exist before His flesh, but was first and the most important person in GODS mind and plan to come and be born as a MAN, we then understand why GOD said so many times He alone created all things, and there are no contradictions to why GOD said: “I am the LORD, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself, Isaiah 44:24, which then explains why Jesus is not mentioned by GOD in doing the creating in Genesis.
The Biblical FACTS:
As we have seen. Jesus became a man, and the SON of MAN.
Contrary, to the fact that GOD, CANNOT be a MAN, or A SON OF MAN.
Just as we are told in Numbers 23:19.
GOD IS NOT MAN, THAT HE SHOULD LIE, OR A SON OF MAN, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?
As we have also seen. Jesus died on the cross.
Contrary, to the fact that GOD ALMIGHTY CANNOT DIE.
who alone has immortality who dwells in unapproachable light whom no one has ever seen, or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.1 Timothy 6:16.
The scriptures do NOT contradict EXCEPT for those who teach Jesus is GOD who then CONTRADICT the word of GOD.
The scriptures are very clear. Jesus was a MAN, and the SON of MAN, and DIED.
GOD ALMIGHTY CANNOT become a MAN, and the SON of MAN, and DIE.
These simple facts, are one of countless proofs that prove MOST have been deceived.
THE BIBLICAL FACTS PROVE JESUS IS NOT GOD, BUT THE SON OF HIS ONE TRUE GOD, JUST AS JESUS HAS ALWAYS DECLARED.
do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said,
‘I am the Son of God’?
Col 1:15-20 15 Who is the Image of the invisible God, Firstborn of every creature, 16 for in Him is all created, that in the heavens and that on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones, or lordships, or sovereignties, or authorities, all is created through Him and for Him, 17 and He is before all, and all has its cohesion in Him." 18 And He is the Head of the body, the ecclesia, Who is Sovereign, Firstborn from among the dead, that in all He may be becoming first, 19 for in Him the entire complement delights to dwell, 20 and through Him to reconcile all to Him (making peace through the blood of His cross), through Him, whether those on the earth or those in the heavens."
ReplyDeleteYou needn't deny the Sonship of The Image of God to deny the trinity. Father begot His Sin before all else, anf thru His Son created all else. And at the consummation the Son shall return all reconciled to His Father. May Father grant you the wisdom to understand the scripture He gave to Paul.
WHY dont you read my article on Colossians 1:15-20 which you prove not to understand?
DeleteAs Jesus is the IMAGE of His GOD, that alone PROVES Jesus is NOT that SAME GOD He is the IMAGE of.
6 for in Him is all created, that in the heavens and that on the earth, the visible and the invisible, REFERS to Matthew 28:18 And having come to them, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "All authority in heaven and on the earth has been given to Me.
In Colossians 1:15-20 Paul is referring to the NEW CREATION in CHRIST as we are told in Hebrews 1:2: in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the ages.
Try reading my articles on Colossians 1:15-20 first? https://wwwrealdiscoveriesorg-simon.blogspot.com/2019/10/the-true-meaning-and-misunderstanding.html
And I do NOT DENY that Jesus is the Image of His GOD, your TRINITY faith does.
You understand that GOD begot His SON, and yet in your other hand you say the SON always existed, a typical TRINITARIAN contradiction.
