Bible Note: Isa 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. Isa 45:12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded. God himself made the earth... I am not attacking what you are saying because I believe we are on the same page. Jesus did create the worlds because he is God, manifest in the flesh. God is a spirit though, he is so much bigger than Jesus "the man" was. Note what was prayed in Jn. 17:5-6 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: Here Jesus says glorify me with the glory which I had with the before the world was. So he had come down out of that "glory" status. Phil. 2:6 says he was in the FORM of God, NOT that he was God as God is a Spirit. Jesus was equal with God because he was God (IN THE FORM OF A HUMAN) No where will you find that he calls himself God. He eludes to it everywhere and those with the revelation understood that he was. Because he was God in the form of a man it wasn't wrong for him to be equal with God because he was God, everything that he could be "manifest in flesh." Until Jesus was glorified, he was unable to have omnipresence and the attributes of God the spirit. Although he was everything God could be wrapped up in the form of a man. He was completely God in that sense, finding himself in the Form of God, (again not God directly as God is a spirit and that was the very thing in Jn. 10:33 that appauled the Jews the most that a man would say he was God) Jesus has always been because Jesus is God. I am saying Jesus the man or body, flesh was created. 1 Pe. 1:20 says... "Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world but was manifest in these last times for you..." The body was formed or manifest. The man was created. But the divinity, God that was in that man (2 co. 5:19) has always been. Col. 2:9 says that the fullness of the Godhead dwelt in him bodily. Jn. 14:26 Says the Holy Ghost will be sent in His name Jn. 5:43 Jesus said he is come in his fathers name Jn. 17:6 Jesus said he had manifest or shown plainly the name of the father 1 Co. 8:4 says there is none other God but one I believe God has always been and he manifest himself as man in order to save us. In the Old testament it testifies that God alone is our saviour in the NT is states Jesus alone is our Savior, They are the same. Not only in purpose but the same. God laid down his own life 1 Jn. 3:16. TRINITY is a word man has made up in a poor effort to describe the Godhead. Ultimatly the Godhead was in Jesus and the 3 are one. Jesus has all power and it is through him and his propitiation we will be saved. God bless you |
