| Jan 7, 2023 at 16:32 | comment | added | Revelation Lad | How can Jesus be the appearance of God yet also be God? Exactly as the Scripture states: And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed. (John 17:5) The appearance of God is glory. Jesus had this appearance before and He has it "plus" now. | |

| Dec 31, 2020 at 11:22 | comment | added | Steve | “ death no longer has... ” clearly meaning it did have. Heb 5:7 supports this too. John 1:1 speaks not of Jesus. 20:28 is often misapplied by those seeking support for a God Jesus. Jesus said he was a man, was he lying if he was God all along? No immortal God of the scripture can die unless we make stuff up. Jesus is lord, this is explained in 1 Cor 8:6 very clearly, and he isn’t God in a zillion texts alike. This is BH not Christianity. We should look to the text above all. Thx for your comments. | |
| Dec 31, 2020 at 10:19 | comment | added | Anne | Jesus was never 'mastered' by death. He willingly allowed his body to become subject to death, though he need never have died, never having sinned. (Death can only legitimately claim sinners.) He gave himself over to death, for a brief time, his resurrection proving he had mastered death. The Gk in Romans 6:9 denotes lordship but as with Satan's lordship, it is assumed wrongly - yet allowed by God to fulfil his purposes in thwarting them - both. Jesus IS Lord for the very reason that he is God, as in John 1:1 & 20:28. | |

| Dec 30, 2020 at 21:11 | comment | added | Steve | “ all things are effectively subject to the Son from before the founding of the world“ You are missing the difference b/w ‘would be’ and ‘is’ subject. Jesus was mastered by death, ie. subject to it, until his death, Rom 6:9.The ‘outcome’ was always known and prophesied, but the reality waited on Jesus success. If Jesus was God he would certainly not be subject to death! | |
| Dec 28, 2020 at 17:47 | comment | added | Anne | Just as the Godhead decreed that the Son would be slain, from before the founding of the world, and that the Father would make his enemies the stool for the Son's feet from before even Jesus became flesh, so all things are effectively subject to the Son from before the founding of the world. What has been decided in eternity, in the counsels of the Godhead, is as good as done. Revelation shows that perspective. Heaven's vantage-point in eternity shows that the Son is God, just as is the seven-fold Spirit of God guarding the throne of God in heaven. Therefore, -1 | |
