1 | The ransom - God or man? | 1 Cor 15:21 | BradK | 132474 | ||
Alien, I'm really not sure why you persist in continuing this thread for "contemplative" reasons? Two points for comment: 1. You write "So Jesus being the ransom, he must be created. Is this Scriptural? (Col 1:15; Rev 3:14; Prov 8:22)" No. He is the Eternal Son of God, begotten not made. He is the I AM of John 8:58. Christ is co-existant and eternal with the Father (Is. 7:14). 2. You write "The theme is the vindication of God's rightful sovereignty" No. Actually, the theme of scripture is the person of the Lord, Jesus Christ from Genesis to Revelation.

"Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am." John 8:58 "I and my Father are one." John 10:30 "But if I do, though you believe not me, believe the works: that you may know and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him." John 10:38 "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak to you I speak not of myself but the Father that dwells in me, he does the works." John 14:10 "That the glory which you gave me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one." John 17:22 "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things were created by him, and for him." Colossians 1:15,16 "For in him dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." Colossians 2:9 "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seens of angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." 1 Timothy 3:16 "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, Has in these last days spoken to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;" Hebrews 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing made that was made." John 1:1-3 |
