Bible Note: What is the meaning behind your statement, “He is the second greatest personage in the universe.” In what respect could the second person of the Godhead be less then the first person of more then the third person, since the resurrection and seating on the throne of God in heaven? John 20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. The only way God could pay the price for man sin would be to restrict Himself by taking on the form of a man so he could shed His own blood, for our payment for sin. God become a man and accepted the temporary restrictions so he could rectify man's curse. Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. All of the former equality between the Godhead has been restored. John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. CDBJ |
