Subject: The ransom - God or man? |
Bible Note: 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.
