Hi. It should be noted that the term God the Son and God the Spirit is not used anywhere in the bible at all. In addition, this scripture does not refer to the three as been one God. What it does highlight is the God's Son was ON earth being baptized with holy spirit and then receiving the approval from his Father and his God (John 20:20)Do we honestly thing that the Almighty would lower himself to be a man that gets baptized by another mortal man? How absurd. Does not scripture tell us that God SENT his son! It should also be noted that God's justice required that a perfect man (as was Adam) be sacrificed to redeem mankind. And that is is exactly the whole concept and reality of Jesus, as God's only begotten Son, coming to the earth to be our personal Saviour. Or did we miss the understanding of Abraham offering his son Isaac? Abraham did not offer himself. They were separate beings (albeit the same nature - human, just as God the Father and the Son of God are SEPARATE Spirit Beings (same nature. |

It should be further noted that to deny any office of Christ as intended is to deny Christ: 1John 2:21 - 24: 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. 24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. "But there was a greater witness than he; even God himself, by a voice from heaven, bore a testimony to him; and angels, at his incarnation, declared him to be the Saviour, which is Christ the Lord; yea, the devil himself, who is a liar, and the father of ties in other things, knew and owned Jesus to be the Christ; so that those that deny him are the worst of liars, even worse than the devil himself. This may have regard not only to the Jews, that deny Jesus to be the Messiah, but chiefly to such who went by the name of Christians; who denied either his proper deity, or real humanity, as Ebion and Cerinthus, which was denying him to be the God-man, the Mediator, and Messiah; and is true of all such that deny him in any of his offices, or in things relating to them, as his Gospel, and any of the peculiar doctrines of it, delivered by him, and so deny his prophetic office; or any of his ordinances, institutions, and appointments, as lawgiver in his house, and King of saints, and so deny him in his kingly office; or reject him as the alone Saviour, joining their own works with him, in the business of salvation, and oppose his sacrifice and satisfaction, and despise his imputed righteousness, and so deny him in his priestly office." - John Gill Stand in His grace, WOS |
