Bible Question: What about the verse where Jesus says that if you have seen the me, you have seen the Father. How can i see Jesus and the father at the same time and them not be the same. Also what about the verse in 1 Tim that says that God was manifest in the flesh. I also have always had one other problem, In matt mark luke and John the Bible says that the Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary. Therefore by the laws of the Trinitarian doctrine make the Holy Spirit the Father????????? |
Bible Answer: Dear HR212,The point is the Father and Son are the same and always were. In John's gospel, the apostle lays down this great truth that Jesus Christ is one with God the Father. Jn 1:14 concurs with the verse in 1Tim and teaches us, "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only,who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." And, Do the laws of Trinitarian doctrine make the Holy Spirit the Father? I would say Yes,we know that Joseph was not the father, and the Holy Spirit and the Father are one and the same. 1Cor.2:10,11 says,"but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God." And also read Matt. 28:19,"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, are you in agreement with this, HolyRoller212? |
