“Blessed be
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of
all comfort,” 2 Corinthians 1:3 (NKJV)
In
the precious and beautiful name of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” greetings.
While listening to the local “Christian” radio station I heard a
pastor say, “As God He was immortal and could not die, as Man He could.” My first thought after hearing it was, how
many times I have heard followers of that creed say God died on a cross. This pastor is a follower of the Anthanasian
Creed.
Obviously, because the all-knowing God of the [Bible] isn’t,
wasn’t, nor could be dead, it had to be the Son of God who happens to be Messiah Yeshua, dying on a cross
for the sin of the world some two thousand years ago. This pastor is convinced of it being the
Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is
God”.
Whatever that creed makes “the Son is God” out to be, contradicts
the teachings of the [Biblical] Yeshua. According
to the teachings of the [Biblical] Yeshua, the Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is God” doesn’t exist.
The pastor is left with no choice but
to defend a false doctrine, for as long as he chooses to believe it.
Ask any follower of the Anthanasian Creed if it’s “God” dying on a
cross some two thousand years ago. If
they tell you anything else but “Yes…it was God,” they’ll be contradicting their
very own teachings concerning the matter.
There’s a very good chance you’ll hear “Yes… it was God but” from them. Get ready if you do. They’re looking to justify a [false] method
of salvation.
Whatever they have to say can only be
traced back to 325-AD. This is when the
Anthanasian Creed was adopted and became the doctrine of the Catholic Church. Prior to the Anthanasian Creeds “the Son is God” surfacing, believing
that the Son of God and the
[Biblical] Yeshua are one and the same was the only thing one needed to do.
In order to keep the Anthanasian Creeds [false] method of
salvation up and running, its followers are [forced] to say “God” died on a cross for the sin of
the world some two thousand years ago. The
all-knowing God of the [Bible] cannot die.
This is [Biblically] correct. The
Son of God dying on a cross
for the sin of the world some two thousand years ago, again, [Biblically]
correct.
If it’s [Biblically] sound to begin
with my friends, it’ll agree throughout.
Being one with God so to speak.
The all-knowing God of the [Bible] isn’t, wasn’t, nor can be, a
man, nor dead.
“For God so
loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in
Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 (NKJV)
Those believing the all-knowing God of the [Bible] died on a cross
some two thousand years ago, have [you] given any thought to what it is you’re [actually]
saying when [you] say God died? Unless
you’re saying this to a “captive” audience of one, yourself, others are hearing
it as well. I would think about that if
I were you, before ever thinking about saying it again.
Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be
subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.
1 Corinthians 15:28 (NKJV)
In God’s plan of salvation “then the Son Himself” [Messiah Yeshua] “will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him,” [subject to God], “that God may be all in all”.
Unlike the Anthanasian Creed which surfaced in 325-AD, what you’ve
just read in 1 Corinthians 15:28 was written by someone from the first century,
the Apostle Paul. Any questions as to
which of these, the Anthanasian Creed or Paul’s writings, was inspired by
God. It can’t be both! I’m sticking with Paul.
“The God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.”
Apostle Saul (who is also called Paul), 2 Corinthians 11:31 (NKJV)
At this point
in Paul’s life, he has turned from persecuting [true] followers of the
[Biblical] Yeshua, as a result of his encounter with Yeshua on the road to Damascus
(Acts 9:1-22, NKJV). I see no reason for
him to steer people away from the teachings of the [Biblical] Yeshua. When Paul wrote to those living in Corinth
then, he obviously knew [exactly] who God is. “The God and Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ”. He even took it one step
further in what we know of today as 2 Corinthians 11:31, confirming his
relationship to God, saying, “our” his God “knows that I am not lying.”
I’m sticking
with Paul.
God bless.
In His Care… Jim
