“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.
The bible is preached today but not with [Scripture]. For those that believe the Anthanasian Creed,
their so called “biblical truths” are nothing more than the writings of those
not mentioned in the [Bible]. Followers
of that creed won’t see it that way but there’s no other way to explain what
didn’t exist prior to 325-AD; the Anthanasian Creeds that one has method of
salvation having to believe [or else] “the Son is God” to be saved.
Don’t confuse the all-knowing God of the [Bible] with the Anthanasian
Creeds “the Son is God,” for
nothing could be further from the truth.
“But of that day and hour no one
knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor
the Son, but only the Father.” Mark 13:32 (NKJV)
Would you say Jesus knows all things, after reading “nor
the Son” in Mark 13:32? I
wouldn’t. How about the Anthanasian
Creeds 100% “God and Man, the Son is
God,” would you say it is possible for the Son to be 100% God but not know 100%
of what God knows? I wouldn’t. It is [Biblically] impossible for the
all-knowing God of the [Bible] to not know all things, 100% of the time.
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God
abides in him, and he in God. 1 John
4:15 (NKJV)
Would you say the person confessing “Jesus is the Son of God,” and the Lord and the
Savior of their life, and rejects the Anthanasian Creed altogether, is
saved? I would. I know the Anthanasian Creed has absolutely
nothing to do with the salvation of one’s soul.
Unfortunately there is many a local “church” that requires one to believe
the Anthanasian Creed to become a “member.”
“I have manifested Your Name to the
men You have given Me out of the world. They
were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.” John 17:6 (NKJV)
And you are
Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
1 Corinthians 3:23 (NKJV)
Just as “They were Yours” is crystal clear, “You
gave them to Me” is as well. True
followers of Messiah Yeshua “Jesus,” those that “have kept Your word,”
were known by God, and were in God, but were separated from Him with Adam and
Eve’s fall in the Garden of Eden. Everything
was meant to be God’s but He knew people were going to fail, so it was
necessary for Him to give us to Jesus as a means to return to Him.
How about “you are Christ’s” and “Christ is God’s,”
would you say the writers of John 17:6 and 1 Corinthians 3:23, John and Paul,
who happen to be true followers of Messiah Yeshua are “Christ’s”? I would.
How about Jesus, is there ever a time when He’s not “God’s”? I wouldn’t give it a second thought if I were
you.
I realize how easy it would be to mistake “Christ is
God’s” in 1 Corinthians 3:23, for Jesus is God. Jesus is the Christ which is to say,
Messiah. Ignoring the [‘s] in “Christ
is God’s” to make it “Christ is God” can’t be done. The verse is correct as written.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in
Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we
should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us as
to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure
of his will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us
accepted in the Beloved. Ephesians 1:3-6 (NKJV)
Let’s cut to
the chase, the Anthanasian Creed is a prime example of replacement theology. God’s plan of salvation is available for all
to see in the [Bible]. It is more than
sufficient enough as is, and should be treated that way.
God bless.
In His Care…
