SON OF GOD

afriendnexdor

WHEN THE TERM SON OF GOD IS IN REFERENCE TO THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST, WHERE IN SCRITURES DOES IT REFERS TO AN ACT OF CREATION. OUR UNDERTANDING OF THIS VERY IMPORTANT QUESTON, DETERMINE OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE PERSON AND NATURE OF JEHOVAH HIMSELF. ONE CANNOT CLAIM TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD WITHOUT FULLY UNDESTANDING THE ESSENTIAL NATURE AND PERSONALITY OF THIS LORD. IT IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL WHEN SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURES ONE SHOULD ALLOW OUR PREVIOUSLY HELD RELIGIUS BELIEFS BE A FACTOR IN INTERPRETATING GOD's WORD. THE VERY NATURE OF DIVINE TRUTH HAS IT's ORIGIN IN THE PERSON OF JEHOVAH HIMSELF.

Your evidently a Jehovahs Witness>Welcome..
I believe God Created all. And then said" LET US make man in OUR image"(Gen1:26)
So He is Body, Soul, & Spirit. Just as I am ....I have a Body a soul, & I sure do have Spirit.
One God!!!As is stated in Isaiah 44:24 ."..I ALONE!!! I ALONE who spread out the earth by MYSELF!!!!! "
I make alot of things by myself but the three of my parts do it ,my Body ,my soul,my spiirit is in the whole
ending of the final finish
But of course you are not allowed to even THINK TRINITY!!!

But welcome to this place of INDIVIDIAL THINKING

Welcome!

I believe Jehovah is ONE- not a trinity. Jesus is his son, just as my best friends son is not my best friend, but is his son, so with Jehovah and Jesus.

See how we can indiviualy THINK!!!!! You believe Your way.I believe mine....
I dont even call God> Jehovah.....I call HIM GOD>The WAY, Truth ,Life.
Just as when I look into the mirror It is MY Image.but when I walk away the image is gone
when I stand in front of my GOD & truly look at HIM,listen to HIM & do as HE suggests,
I am in HIS image, but often I am afraid I fail to keep HIM in my focus He knows me though
That is way he died for me...a sinner ....I am happy I can think as I like NOW!!! No man on earth
tells me what I MUST believe ....
But thanks for sharing your view...

Band on the Run

Being a son of God is no big deal. The messianic term "son of God" is crucial. THWH has many sons, all notable Jewish rulers, prophets,etc. There is only one son of man. I believe it started in Isaiah but the concept may have been around a long time before the prophet used it. When Jesus is called Son of God, God favors Jesus. Strangely, if I recall correctly, Jesus merely alludes to the son of man. He never states expressly that he is the son of man. It has been a long while since I've been around people who discuss "son of God," opinions. Daniel Berrigan once gave a sermon that stated that the Son of Man was too boggling for a human mind.

The Witness concept of Jesus Christology makes no sense to me. Michael - Jesus -who knows? There is no Biblical truth for either a Trinity view of Christ or the JW view. Micheal seems to be unique to the Witnesses. The whole thing seems to ravel away if one thinks Michael's force was given up. God is the creator. He can create forces from nothing. Also, Michael was/is a very impt angel. What a waste of resources.
