Concerning Jesus
Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?” John 18:33-34 (NKJV)
Is the idea that “the Son is God” fresh off the press today, or something that’s been around for quite some time now? It’s obviously a new thing for the person having heard/read about it for the first time today, but it doesn’t change the fact that it has a long history from times gone by. It was actually birthed in AD 325, as part of what’s known to us today as the Anthanasian Creed. Unlike the (John 18:33-34) Biblical account of Jesus’s encounter with Pilate back then, trustworthy as is, the tale of the Anthanasian Creed changes from one generation to the next. Did you hear “the Son is God” from someone else, or did you find it out for yourself? It doesn’t matter where one stood in AD 325, for, or against the Anthanasian Creed. This is now, and it needs to be seen for what it is today, false doctrine.
Jesus saying “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me” back then, sets the stage for us.
For those teaching “the Son is God” as true today, the question becomes, “are you speaking for yourself about” it, “or did others tell you this concerning” Jesus? It’s safe to say today that there’s no support for the Anthanasian Creed’s “the Son is God,” whatsoever, in the Bible.
God bless.
In His Care… Jim
