“How does ‘the Word was a god’ fit with the Bible’s teaching that there is only one God?”

[DavidTree]

Gen 1:27 assures only 1/2 of the US created= HE. Prov 8:27-28 backs that truth up-only a HE created -

The HE is YHWH the WORD that was ELOHIM and became flesh = YHWH YAHshua HaMashiach

All THREE are included as Echad ELOHIM = Genesis chapter 1 = John chapter 1

The HOLY SPIRIT is Uniquely Eternal just as the FATHER just as the SON = Echad ELOHIM

 

[FreeInChrist]

It isn't even a living being. It has 0 equality with the Father and son.

Oy veh .... SMH

The idea that the Holy Spirit is just an impersonal force doesn’t survive even a basic reading of Scripture.

The Holy Spirit speaks, teaches, guides, and can be grieved (Acts 13:2; John 14:26; John 16:13; Ephesians 4:30). A force does none of those things .....those are personal actions.

Acts 5:3–4 goes further: lying to the Holy Spirit is lying to God. Not to a force BUTto God.

And Matthew 28:19 places the Holy Spirit alongside the Father and the Son in a single divine name. If He were merely a force, that inclusion would make no sense.

Pointing to verses about the Spirit being “poured out” doesn’t solve this, it just ignores the passages where He clearly acts, speaks, and is identified as God.

So this is not a defensible biblical position, it is a selective reading that leaves out the very verses that contradict it.

Jesus is called supreme Creator

Yes unity of purpose as John 17 explains.

same chapter is where Jesus stated that He shares in very glory of God

The Holy Spirit is called by Paul the Spirit of Jesus and of the Father

 

[JesusFan]

Its 100% fact in Greek the true God at both spots is called a different Greek word than the Word and satan are called. To show the difference of God and god.

Both the Father and Jesus called Theos

 

[JesusFan]

No such word in Gods bible as trinity.

Neither can you find bible

It also come VERY close to committing blasphemy against Him, and Jesus told us how bad that will be

Very true.

“Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter;
but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation”— because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Flee from religion and run to the LORD Jesus Christ and escape eternal condemnation

You are in error. Jehovah is Elohim as the name Elijah testifies to-El( Elohim) is Jehovah. The Hebrew word for God=Elohim=The supreme one = nothing plural about it in the Hebrew language. Twisting by men in darkness makes it plural for the true God.

God used the holy spirit as a go between, God asked the question, God sought the answer. Catholicism encyclopedia says--In most instances the holy spirit is NOT spoken of as a living being. If its a living being, tell us its personal name? Both Father and son have personal names. Explain why one does not have to know the holy spirit to get eternal life, but has to know the Father and the son( John 17:3) Explain to all of us whu its never shown on a throne as the Father and son are?

Where is that, i never saw that statement ever in the bible.

 

[Keiw1]

God shares glory with Jesus according to Revelation.

 

[Keiw1]

The Holy Spirit is called by Paul the Spirit of Jesus and of the Father

How do you know Paul was referring to the holy spirit there. Revelation mentions 7 spirits from God.

The holy spirit carries Jesus' Fathers will 100%. So its against the Father really.

The Holy Spirit is a Person

Which would be a reference to the Holy Spirit

 

[JesusFan]

Where is that, i never saw that statement ever in the bible.

for by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or rulers, or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. Colossians 1:16

But it does not say... as YOU have proved.... it never says.

While you are so busy idolizing the RCC's teachings, ask yourself this.

You quote " Both Father and son have personal names."

We all have read the YHWH from the old testament. We all have read the I AM, from the old testament. But the son was never given a name ...only called the Word.... until the incarnation.

Yours is a very weak proof of whatever you are tryig to proove.

While you are at it... try explaining the purpose of the Father, the purpose of the Son, and the purpose of the Holy Spirit....

I can think of one reason that as yet the Holy Spirit is not on the throne... CAN YOU??

CAN ANYONE?
