The Only True God and the Deity of Christ – Why Translations Matter Pt. 2a

In my previous discussion (/2019/06/05/the-only-true-god-and-the-deity-of-christ-why-translations-matter/), I employed the English Standard Version (ESV) of the Holy Bible to show that the Lord Jesus, in union with the Father, is identified as the only Master, Lord, and God of all creation, especially of believers. I am now going to

The Trinitarian Beliefs of the Ante-Nicene Period Pt. 2

The Case of Origen In this section (/2019/06/15/the-trinitarian-beliefs-of-the-ante-nicene-period-pt-1/), I am going to quote from the third chapter of Fortman’s book where he discusses Origen’s Trinitarian views. All bold, capital and/or underline emphasis will be mine. Origen The second point is the procession of the

Revisiting Jesus’ Subordination to the Father Pt. 4

We come to the final part of my series (/2019/06/16/revisiting-jesus-subordination-to-the-father-pt-3/). Christ – The eternal King! Anti-Trinitarians will also quote 1 Corinthians 15:28 to prove that Jesus is not God. Here is the passage, this time adding verses 24-27 for context: “After that the end will come, when

Revisiting Jesus’ Subordination to the Father Pt. 3

I continue from where I left off (/2019/06/16/revisiting-jesus-subordination-to-the-father-pt-2/). Christ – The God-man who reigns supreme over all creation In case the readers are still uncertain whether the inspired Apostle believed and taught that Christ is the eternal God (yet not the Father or the Holy Spirit) the following

Jesus is the Most High God!

In this post, I am going to present the evidence that identifies Jesus as the most High God. 1. Jehovah is the Most High God. The God-breathed Scriptures are quite clear that Jehovah is the Most High God: “And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up

Jehovah Gets Pierced! Pt. 2

In this section (/2019/06/10/jehovah-gets-pierced/) I am going to address the two main objections to reading Zechariah 12:10 as “they will look to/on Me.” Here, once again, is how the passage reads: “I will pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of

The Only True God and the Deity of Christ: Why Translations Matter

In this post I am going to show how the particular translation one employs will have a direct impact on how one goes about defending and/or refuting specific objections leveled against the core, essential doctrines of the Christian faith. I will be using the English Standard Version as a

The Lord of Glory: An Exposition of John 17:3 Pt. 3

I come to the final part of my exposition (/2019/05/23/the-lord-of-glory-an-exposition-of-john-173-pt-2/). Jesus shares God’s incommunicable attributes In John 17 where Jesus says that he and the Father shared the same Divine glory Christ also spoke of being omnipresent: “I in them, and You in Me; that they

The Lord of Glory: An Exposition of John 17:3 Pt. 2

I continue with my exegesis of John 17:3 (/2019/05/23/the-lord-of-glory-an-exposition-of-john-173-pt-1/). Jesus – The Visible Appearance of Yahweh God John provides further confirmation that Jesus had the glory which belongs uniquely to Yahweh: “Jesus replied, ‘The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified (doxasthe). I

The Lord of Glory: An Exposition of John 17:3 Pt. 1

In this series of posts I will provide a thorough exegesis of John 17:3 in light of the immediate and overall contexts of the God-breathed Scriptures to show that, far from refuting Christ’s Deity, this text actually presupposes it. Here is the verse in question along with some
