Grerting in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I can only speak for "Diversified Oneness", and not for any other Oneness. first thanks for the questions. second, in diversified oneness, there is no such thing as bi-partite. but there is the "EQUAL SHARE" of God, or the G243 ἄλλος allos or the H259 אֶחָד 'echad of God in a. Natural human flesh, and b. now in resurrected and glorified flesh.
This is the first time I have ever heard of the doctrine of diversified oneness or the doctrine of equal share. Therefore I cannot comment on them.
and as for the IMAGE of Adam/man. there are two lines from Adam, a fallen state, (which was produce outside of the Garden of Eden), and the line that did not fall, (that was from the inside of the Garden, the offspring, who did knot take wives from the fallen line), that Melchisedec is of. not all men fell before the flood, per the Godly line. per Romans 5:14 "Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come."
One has to believe that God would not develop a godly line only to destroy it along with the ungodly line and at the same time and in the same way and for the same reason. What advantage did the godly line have over the ungodly line? Only eight people were saved, as in delivered, by water. Every other creature that breathed air was destroyed no matter what line they were in. The souls of all of them went to hell (
which is in the center of the earth), see 1 peter 3
But why were they destroyed according to the textual testimony? Here it is:
Ge 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and
that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (nothing about breaking laws)
6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created
from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
It was not because they had broken God's law because he had not given them a single law. This is the point of Romans 5 when it says this;
12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all (from Adam to Moses) have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
So Adam was given one law and he became the transgressor, the only transgressor before the flood because no one else could break that law because God had sealed off the entrance to the garden where the tree was before anyone was born of Adam.
The pre-flood world lasted just 1656 years before every person except one was totally corrupt in his thinking. The whole experiment would have failed had it not been for that one man. This same scenario will play out again in human history and one man will arise to save through the judgement the few who are left. This incident is a figure for the future incident when the element of God's judgement will be fire that destroys rather than water.
Here is that one man to whom the figure that is Noah points.
Mt 3:10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees (
trees are persons in Biblical symbolism): therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
(obviously the baptisms are two different baptisms, one former and one latter)
12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
So men were as gods before the law knowing good and evil and were condemned by their own knowledge of good and evil and they had no inward power to resist the evil because the flesh is weak. Romans 1 gives us the lot of this world.
Ro 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
(This is where you fail. You do not acknowledge the Godhead but you are twice as guilty because you have what they had to testify of the trinity as well as the testimony of God himself in his complete Bible).
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Here is the principle of judgement among different men with different degrees of understanding;
11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. (
this of course requires the consciousness of right and wrong)
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts,
their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another)
16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
second ERROR. Adam was CREATED in the IMAGE of God not as any or some kind of tri-partite, no, but a one-partite as in MANKIND of a ECHAD in an EQUALITY "SHARING" of ONE. for the Man was formed First, then the woman, but the Woman is ... "of" .... the man, meaning they are One in an Echad of sharing.
Well, that settles it (tee-hee). it is as clear as any mud I have ever seen.
all fallen state line of Mankind must be ....... "RESTORED"/Born Again.
please post book, chapter, and verse to that effect.
If yopu request just one I will give you just one;
Mt 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
ok, if you're here to help, good. first evidence of God as ONE. is the Person in John 1:3 who MADE ALL THINGS, is he the same one Person in Isaiah 44:24 who MADE ALL THING? ...... and please Note, he who made all things was "ALONE" and "BY HIMSELF".
I'll be looking for your answer, thanks in advance
God pointed to his creation to declare his person before he sent his Son. Then his Son testifies to his triune person. He has done this in many places and in many ways. However I will give you one.
Jesus Christ is a man, said in scripture that he was and is God manifest in the flesh. In Isaiah 53 the scriptures asks "who hath believed our report and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed, for he shall grow up as a tender plant, and as root out of a dry ground: he hath no form or comeliness; and when we shall see him there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief:
Jesus Christ was and is a Jew as related to men. He always will be. He was a common man and he appeared as other Jewish men. This means he was probably about 6' tall and weighed maybe around 175 lbs. He is presently sitting of the throne of his Father God at his right hand in this person in heaven, hearing the prayers of those who are his on the earth and conducting his office as high priest being the go between of the saved and the Father.
But the scriptures says this present tense statement:
1Jo 5:11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
The physical person of Jesus Christ, the one sitting right now on the Father's throne in heaven, is not dwelling in the bodies of the believers on the earth, yet we are told if we have not the son we do not have eternal life.
What is eternal life? Answer:
1Jo 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
So, in one paragraph we are told that Christ is in the body of the believer and that the believer is in Christ and the two are one.
Now note what is said here about the Spirit of God and Christ and make the correct application:
Ro 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that
the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not
the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Which is it? The Spirit of God or the Spirit of Christ? The answer is yes. The Spirit is God The Spirit is Christ. The Spirit is the Spirit.
Three in one and one in three, the trinity. This is how the scriptures reveals God.
Now I have been somewhat random in dealing with this post and making these comments. But it is because I am being evangelistic. I am sure there are certain things one must believe about Jesus Christ in order to be saved by God and given eternal life, which is his Spirit to indwell the body. The blood of Jesus Christ that he shed in his death for us all can and will wash away our sins when we put our faith in him and believe that God raised this body from the dead and the trinitarian image of the man Jesus Christ, soul. body. and Spirit will be created in us when we receive his Spirit that he poured out at the cross so we might be reconcile to God.
2Co 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
2Co 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give
the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
Sadly, The darkness is often too great in the mind of some for the light to enter in and that one is lost to God forever and goes to hell.
Jesus Christ is God who became the God-man to save our souls from death and hell. Believe it please and be saved.
