Subject: Why Did god call jesus his begotten sun? |
Bible Note: Mark, Scripture does not teach Jesus the Christ, the only begotten Son of God was created! None of the passages you reference teach this and indeed no passage of scripture will teach it. Hebrews 1:3 says that He (Jesus) is the "radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature". Exact representation does not allow for the concept the He was created. In fact, to be the "exact representation" clearly proclaims the deity of Jesus. John 1:1-3 should help clear this up for you. John 1:1-3 (NASB) 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 1:2 He was in the beginning with God. 1:3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. The Word spoken of here is Jesus the Son of God and it clearly says the Word was God. Verse 2 clearly tells us He was in the beginning with God. All things! Don't miss this! ALL THINGS came into being through Him and nothing came into being but through Him. He did not create Himself! Scripture clearly teaches that Christ Jesus is indeed God. He God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are eternal. From eternity past to eternity future Christ Jesus was and will be! Hope this helps. Steve |
