“That the God
of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of
wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.” Ephesians 1:17 (NKJV)
In
the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.
Then Jesus said to them, “When you
lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing
of Myself; but as My Father taught Me,
I speak these things. And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things
that please Him.” As He spoke these words, many believed in Him. John 8:28-30 (NKJV)
“And this is eternal life, that
they may know You, the only true God,
and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” John 17:3 (NKJV)
When Jesus speaks of the Father “but as My Father taught
Me, I speak these things,” He’s referring to the God of the [Bible], “You
the only true God.” I say “the God
of the [Bible]” because some believe Jesus claims to be God in [Bible] when clearly
Jesus knows who sent Him (John 17:3).
“This is My beloved Son, in whom I
am well pleased. Hear Him!” Matthew 17:5 (NKJV)
“The only true God” is not only “well pleased”
with Jesus knowing who sent Him, that same God is calling for us to believe
these things Jesus said, “Hear Him!”
“Therefore
whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who
is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My
Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 10:32-33 (NKJV)
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God
abides in him, and he in God. 1 John
4:15 (NKJV)
After reading Matthew 10:32-33 and 1 John 4:15, would you
say letting others know “Jesus is the Son of God” is the safest thing
one could do? I would.
“And to the angel of the church in
Thyatira write, ‘These things says the
Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine
brass:’” Revelation 2:18 (NKJV)
I know it’s safe to tell others Jesus is “the Son of God”
because in Revelation 2:18, Jesus is calling Himself, “the Son of God.” If God is pleased with these things Jesus said,
found in the [Bible], who am I to question them.
I was listening to a thirty minute program the local
“Christian” radio station that was nearing its end when I heard, “Use Your word
to convict Your church.” The statement was
one of the many prayers offered up to God mind you. The speaker on the radio is a follower of the
Anthanasian Creed.
Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.” John 7:16 (NKJV)
“He who does not love Me does not
keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who
sent Me.” John 14:24 (NKJV)
I’d make sure you’d be willing to accept these things Jesus
said in John 7:16 and 14:24 as pleasing to God, before trying to make the
Anthanasian Creed “the Son is
God” and the [Biblical] Jesus out to be one and the same. If you’re praying God “use Your word to
convict Your church,” you’d have to agree with these things Jesus said. These things Jesus said, don’t support the
Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is
God.”
Nothing has caused more people to
stray from God’s word to false teachings, than the Anthanasian Creed.
If the follower of that creed would take just a brief
moment, to consider what they’re saying when they say the Anthanasian Creed is
[Biblically] sound, they’d see there’s no [Biblical] reason to believe it at
all. As a “tradition” maybe, but that’ll
be as far as it goes.
The greatest error in interpreting the [Scripture] is the
substitution of having to believe the doctrine of the “Trinity” to be saved,
for God’s plan of salvation.
God bless.
In His Care… Jim
