U-24. Revelation 1:8-I am the ALPHA and OMEGA!
This phrase “I am the Alpha and the Omega” is found four times in the Bible and all four times are in the book of Revelation. Most Christians know that BOTH Almighty God the Father AND His Son Jesus spoke these same words in the first person singular. In other words, Almighty God the Father said, “I am Alpha and Omega” and the SON OF Almighty God the Father ALSO said, “I am the Alpha and Omega”. And both the Oneness Christians and the Trinitarian Christians interpret these four verses to mean that Jesus is saying that he is Yahweh HIMSELF. But that is NOT what these four verses state. These four verses simply say, “I am the Alpha and the Omega.” So then, what did Jesus mean when he said that he was the Alpha and the Omega? And what did Yahweh the Father mean when he said that he was the Alpha and the Omega? The Alpha and the Omega are the first and the last LETTERS of the Greek alphabet. The alphabet in any language is used to form WORDS. And the first and last LETTERS of the Hebrew alphabet are the Aleph and the Tav. So I believe that Jesus was saying that he is the Aleph and the Tav in the SCRIPTURES. In other words, Jesus is saying that he is PROPHESIED to come in the written word of God. Please read the study “WHAT DO THE ALEPH AND THE TAV MEAN?” But for now, just briefly, Jesus told the children of Israel that they searched the Scriptures for ETERNAL LIFE and that the SCRIPTURES testify of HIM. So Jesus is saying that he is the living word of God that was made flesh and that he has the teaching of the word of God that brings eternal life to those who believe and obey his teachings under the New Covenant written in the New Testament. And Yahweh the Father is saying that He created the Aleph and the Tav. In other words, Yahweh came up with the idea to form words to speak out from His mouth to create everything in the Universe. For you see, Yahweh ALONE and by Himself created everything that exists by SPEAKING words out from His mouth. And then, Yahweh the Father watches over and PERFORMS His spoken of prophecy, His Word, to make them come to pass or come into existence where they never existed before. For a deeper understanding of the meaning of Aleph and the Tav in the Old Testament as being HIDDEN prophecies of Jesus, then please read part two of this study that I have titled “WHAT DOES I AM THE ALPHA AND OMEGA MEAN?” But for now, here is part one of this series of studies on what it truly means when Jesus said that he came OUT FROM God. Again, this phrase “ALPHA AND OMEGA” is used four times in the Bible, and all four times it is used are found in the book of Revelation. The purpose of this study is to find if these verses where this phrase “I am the Alpha and Omega” prove without a doubt that Jesus is the Almighty God Himself. In other words, is Jesus one and the same divine eternal being with the Father. For you see, to say that Jesus is Almighty God Himself is actually saying that Jesus is the Father. I do know understand how Trinitarian Christians have a hard time seeing that the SON OF God is under and subject to his God who is the Father. So how could the Son of God actually be the same God that he is UNDER and subject to? Plain and SIMPLE, Yahweh the Father is the Alpha and the Omega or all of the letters that form His WORD, because Almighty God the Father is the one that the WORD came out from. And Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega or all of the letters that form the WORD, because Jesus is what the WORD became as the FULFILLMENT of what Yahweh PROPHESIED and then PERFORMED His OWN spoken word of PROPHECY. Please keep in mind that IF these verses do in fact teach that Jesus is Almighty God, as in, one and the same being as Almighty God the FATHER, then this would NOT prove the DOCTRINE of the Trinity that clearly teaches that Jesus is NOT the Father. But rather, these four Alpha and Omega verses of Scripture would be more supportive of the false doctrine of ONENESS, which teaches that Jesus is the FATHER. Let us begin this study in God's word by reading Revelation 1:8. I will highlight in orange the words and pronouns that refer to Almighty God Yahweh the Father.
Revelation 1:8.
“I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, SAYS the Lord, which is, which was, and which is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.”
The word of God makes it perfectly clear that the one who is speaking and saying that he is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, is the Lord God Almighty. We know this again by comparing Scripture with Scripture.
Take a look at the last part of Revelation 4:8 b.
“...Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, which is, and which is to come.”
The phase or words “which was, which is, and which is to come” always refer to the Lord God Almighty, which from what I can see always refers to Almighty God the FATHER in the word of God. The disciples of Jesus always clearly identified the ONE God as being the Father and the ONE Lord as being Jesus the Christ. Simply do a word search in a Bible concordance using the phrase “one God” for yourself or you can click on the link to the study “DOES HEBREWS 1:10 PROVE that JESUS is YAHWEH?” and scroll down toward the end of that study to find every verse in the New Testament clearly identifying the FATHER as the ONE God, who is the God OF Jesus the anointed of God. Also this will become quite clear as we continue this study in God's word in search for the TRUTH of the whole word of God. The next time this phrase containing the words “Alpha and Omega” is found in Revelation 1:10,11.
Please read Revelation 1:10,11.
“I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard BEHIND me a great VOICE, as of a trumpet, 11. Saying, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last: and what you see, write in a book, and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia.”
Again, the one who is speaking in this verse is ALSO Almighty God, the Father. Some may argue with this, because in some Bibles the words are in red. Keep in mind that they have been placed in red letters by the translators, who have INTERPRETED these words to be the words of Jesus as the one who is speaking. Again, please keep in mind that it is important to remember that these words in red letters are printed in red by the translator to signify that Jesus is the one speaking. And thus, it is only the OPINION or the INTERPRETATION of the translator to be the words of Jesus. HOWEVER, in this particular case in Revelation 1:8, these translators have made an error concerning this verse. And I will plainly show you WHY I say that the red lettered word in this case are NOT the words of Jesus. All we need to do is to read the context and compare the context along with another verse of Scripture spoken by John in chapter 4. Remember that the first rule of interpretation is to consider the whole CONTEXT in which the verse in question is found. First I want to draw your attention to verse 10 that we just read where John hears BEHIND him a great voice as of a TRUMPET. Clearly seeing and understanding that there are TWO voices that John hears in this CONTEXT is very important to discerning the TRUTH of WHO is the one that is saying that he is the Alpha and Omega, THE ALMIGHTY. With this in mind now let's continue to read Revelation 1:12-15.
Revelation 1:12-15.
“And I turned to SEE the VOICE (As of a TRUMPET) that spoke with me. And being turned I SAW seven golden candlesticks; 13. And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks one like the Son of man clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. 14. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; 15. And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in the furnace; and HIS voice as the sound of MANY WATERS.”
You see my dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, there were TWO DIFFERENT voices. The FIRST voice that was behind John that he could NOT SEE the one who had a great voice as of a TRUMPET. And in a moment you will clearly see that the FIRST voice as of a TRUMPET was the voice of Almighty God the FATHER. And thus you will see that the SECOND voice, which belongs to the one John SAW when he turned to see the FIRST voice as of a trumpet, but instead John SAW one like the Son of man and HIS voice was as the sound of many waters. You see, the one having the FIRST voice that John did NOT see was as of a TRUMPET, which John ONLY heard the one who was speaking. BUT John did NOT actually see the one who was speaking that had the voice of a TRUMPET. Keep in mind that this is in complete harmony with God's word that says, NO man has seen God nor can see him.
Please read 1 Timothy 6:14-16.
“That you keep this commandment without spot, not rebuking it, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: 15. Which in his times (Speaking of both the first and second comings of Jesus) he (Jesus) shall show, WHO is the blessed and ONLY Potentate (The word Potentate means Sovereign or over all, which means the ALMIGHTY. Jesus came to show us the FATHER who is the ONLY Potentate. And since the Father is the God OF His Son Jesus, then that means that Jesus is NOT the Almighty God. But rather, Jesus came to SHOW us his God and Father WHO the ONE TRUE and ONLY Almighty God, according to John 17:1-3. You see, Almighty God Yahweh the Father is the ETERNAL King), the King of kings, and Lord of lords; 16. Who ONLY has immortality, dwelling in the light which NO man can approach unto; whom NO man has seen, NOR CAN SEE: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.”
God Himself is Spirit and invisible so no mortal man can ever see the invisible Almighty God the Father who has always had immortality, and who is not a man, nor the son of man. So again, John did NOT SEE the one whose voice was as of a trumpet, but rather only TURNED to see the one speaking and when John turned he saw instead one like the Son of man, who had a DIFFERENT voice as the sound of many waters. Pay attention to what the word of God is actually saying and notice how as John turned to SEE who was speaking he INSTEAD saw one like the Son of MAN and when he heard HIS voice it was DIFFERENT than the FIRST voice. You may be thinking that I am reading too much into this, but if you keep reading you will see otherwise. John confirms that there were TWO different voices in Revelation 4:1. This is known as letting Scripture interpret Scripture, rather than interpreting a verse with ones own bias opinion. Please notice that John calls this, voice as of a trumpet, the FIRST voice that he heard.
Revelation 4:1.
“After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the FIRST voice which I heard as it were a TRUMPET talking with me; which said Come up hither, and I will show things which must come hereafter.”
So in this verse you can see that John is finishing up telling us what he BOTH saw and heard when he was in the Spirit on the Lord's day back in Revelation 1:8-10. The word “FIRST” used here, lets us know that there were no less than one other voice. And that means there were at least TWO voices that John heard on the Lord's day. In other words, the word “first” demands that there be a no less than a SECOND voice, but NOT necessarily a third or fourth voice and so on. Again, the FIRST voice, as of a TRUMPET, was Almighty God the Father's voice.
Revelation 1:8. “I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, SAYS the Lord, which is, which was, and which is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.”
So CLEARLY, the one speaking in this verse, Revelation 1:8 is THE ALMIGHTY God who is the FATHER. This will be proven without a doubt as we continue this study in God's word. But before we take a closer look at the phrase “which is, which was, and which is to come”, let us look at the third time that this phrase “Alpha and Omega” is used, which is found in Revelation 21:6.
Revelation 21:6.
“And he said unto me, it is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the living water of life freely.”
This verse is ALSO referring to Almighty God the Father. The context makes it clear that it is God the Father saying, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.”
Back up to verses 3-6 a in Revelation 21.
“And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and he shall be his people, and God HIMSELF shall be with them, and be their God. 4. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5. And HE that sat upon THE THRONE said, Behold I make all things new. And HE said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 6. And HE (The one who sits upon THE THRONE) said unto me, it is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end....”
The word of TRUTH, the Holy Bible teaches us that it is Almighty God HIMSELF that sits upon THE THRONE and Jesus HIS SON is seated at his right hand. Please read Revelation 5:1 along with verse 7.
Revelation 5:1,7.
“5. And I saw in the right hand of HIM that sat on THE THRONE a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals... ...7. And he (Speaking of the Lamb, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root and OFFSPRING OF David) came and TOOK the BOOK out of the HAND of HIM the sat upon the THRONE.”
The word of God leaves no doubt that it is Almighty God HIMSELF that sits upon the THRONE. So in all three of these verses, it is Almighty God the Father who says that He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Before we look at the fourth and final time we find this phrase “I am the Alpha and the Omega” let's go to Isaiah 44:6 and take a look.
Isaiah 44:6.
“Thus says the LORD (Yahweh) the King of Israel, and HIS REDEEMER the LORD (Yahweh) of hosts; I am the first and the last; and beside me there is NO God.”
In this verse, we clearly see that Almighty God tells us Himself that there is NO other God beside him. In other words, there is but ONE God, who is the Most-High God. The LITERAL translation actually says that there is no God APART from me. Please read the studies “THERE IS BUT ONE GOD!” and “OUR GOD IS ONE!” But for now, please know and understand that God highly exalted the Son of MAN Jesus to become the God of the whole earth to rule FOR Yahweh for 1000 years. Also, notice that Almighty God, the LORD or Yahweh of hosts, the LORD or Yahweh the King of Israel is HIS REDEEMER. So who is the HIS that this verse is referring to? In verse 1 we see that it is Jacob his servant and Israel whom he has chosen that is being spoken to.
Isaiah 44:1.
“Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant: and Israel, whom I have chosen.”
Now let's back up in the previous chapter Isaiah 43:1-4 and learn more of who Jacob and Israel are symbolically representing. Who they are FORESHADOWING to come. Many passages in the Old Testament give both a historical account of what is happening and also a PROPHECY of what will take place yet in the future.
Isaiah 43:1-4.
“But now, thus says the Lord that CREATED YOU, O Jacob, and FORMED you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have REDEEMED you, I have called you by your name; you are mine. 2. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon you. 3. For I am the Lord YOUR God, the Holy One of Israel, YOUR SAVIOR: I gave Egypt for your RANSOM (The price you paid) Ethiopia and Seba for YOU. 4. Since YOU were precious in my sight, YOU have been honorable, and I have loved YOU: therefore I will give MEN FOR YOU, and PEOPLE for YOUR LIFE:”
Your LIFE is referring to Your RANSOM, the price that YOU paid by dying on the cross to redeem them to me of your OWN free will to obey My will. Therefore, or for that very reason, I, your God and Father, will GIVE men to avenge AND those who believe in you as your people, or your children. Now, we all agree that Jesus is the ONLY ONE that we know that God gave for a RANSOM for mankind. So to me, Egypt is a type or a shadow of the world or mankind. God gave MEN or MANKIND to His Son for the price that His human Son paid to redeem mankind back to God. Notice that there are TWO groups of people, MEN, and PEOPLE. So in my own opinion, since Jesus will execute the WRATH of God upon the MEN that REJECT him. then I am seeing that the PEOPLE for your LIFE is referring to BELIEVERS. So to me, this verse is telling us that Almighty God is the Lord God and SAVIOR of Jesus. And thus, Almighty God the Father CREATED and FORMED Jesus. Then the word goes on and says that God Almighty gave Egypt, which is to say the world or all of mankind in return for Jesus being a RANSOM. Jesus gave HIS LIFE of his own free will in return for our freedom from Satan. Jesus set the captives free by his RANSOM, his death, and resurrection. God prophesied, and said, I will give MEN for you, speaking of Jesus His SON, and PEOPLE for YOUR LIFE. Jacob and Israel are also types and shadows of Jesus, his church, and the children of Israel that will be saved during the 1000 year reign of Jesus. Now, with this in mind, let us take a look at the last or fourth time the phrase “I am the Alpha and Omega” occurs in the Bible. It may very well be that verse is Jesus himself doing the speaking. Or is could very well be Jesus speaking FOR his God and Father, since Jesus is coming to rule FOR Yahweh in the NAME of Yahweh for 1000 years. And since Yahweh the Father is BRINGING His first begotten into the world to come, according the Hebrews 1:6, then it may very well be that Yahweh the Father is speaking in verse 13 even though it SEEMS like Jesus is doing the speaking. But even if Jesus is doing the speaking and Jesus is saying that SAME words that Yahweh says in the first three occurrences of this phrase “I am the Alpha and Omega”, then that still does NOT prove that Jesus is saying the he is Almighty God Himself. I am only showing you OTHER ways to interpret Revelation 22:13 which is used to TRY and prove that Jesus is Almighty God Himself.
Look at Revelation 22:12,13.
“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man according as his work shall be. 13. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.”
It seems pretty clear that this is Jesus speaking here. BUT, to me, it is NOT clear that Jesus saying that he HIMSELF is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last to MEAN that Jesus is Almighty God HIMSELF. For you see, just because Jesus says these words which Almighty God says about Himself in the other three occurrences that we already covered does NOT prove that Jesus is Almighty God Yahweh HIMSELF. Now, I believe that Jesus is speaking these words FOR Yahweh because in the very next verse Jesus says HIS commandment as opposed to saying MY commandments. Or again, it might be that Jesus is speaking of himself in verse 12, and then, Yahweh, who will BRING His first begotten into the world to be worshiped in the world to come, according to Hebrews 1:6, is the Father speaking of Himself in verse 13. And then, in verse 14, it is Jesus speaking again referring to HIS commandments that the Father put into his mouth to speak. Either way, I am seeing that verse 13 is speaking of the Father, because Jesus says HIS commandments in verse 14, as opposed to saying “my” commandments.
Please read Revelation 22:14.
“Blessed are they that do HIS (Or Yahweh the Father’s) commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.”
Those that teach the doctrine of the Trinity and that Jesus is Almighty God Yahweh HIMSELF claim that this verse definitely shows that Jesus and God the Father are one and the SAME Almighty God simply because Jesus says, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” They argue that since the Father said the SAME exact words, then that proves that Jesus is Yahweh Himself. If one is to accept this deduction and line of REASONING as being the ONLY way to interpret this verse, then they must THROW OUT all the other verses of the Bible that clearly show that Jesus is the SON of God and NOT Almighty God HIMSELF. Jesus was, is, and ever shall be UNDER Almighty God the Father and SUBJECT to his God his Father. Also, when one demands that Jesus is Yahweh, then to ME, they are demanding that Jesus is the FATHER. Now, if my father were to say “I am a carpenter” in the first person singular, and then me, also being a carpenter, would say the same thing, “I am a carpenter”, does this make me and my father be one and the SAME person or being? Obviously, the answer is NO, it does not. But rather, we are both CARPENTERS. Now, we can both work TOGETHER on the same project and my father carpenter is my BOSS and I am under and subject to me boss carpenter. And my boss carpenter might even send me out to do a job FOR him to REPRESENT my father’s carpenter COMPANY. But that does not make me to be the BOSS over one jobs in my father’s carpenter company has on other places. So then, neither does this or any other verse of Scripture where Jesus says the SAME thing as his God and Father prove that Jesus is the ONE TRUE and ONLY Almighty God Himself just because he says the same words as his Father. Jesus was MADE to become a God over the earth and not over the entire Universe. And Jesus will ONLY rule for 1000 years FOR his God in the NAME of his God. So you can see that in the LIGHT of the WHOLE word of God, that the ALMIGHTY God can NOT have another God over Himself. For you see, then that God over him would then be the ALMIGHTY God. And the Father is the God OF His SON, Jesus, much like an earth King might have his son rule for him in his name for a day. Keep in mind that a single DAY is as a 1000 years and a thousand years is as a single DAY. Now AGAIN, IF Jesus himself is saying these words, I am ALPHA and OMEGA, in Revelation 22:13, which are the same words that Almighty God also spoke in the other three occurrences, then, to me, this would support the false ONENESS DOCTRINE more so than the doctrine of the Trinity, which correctly teaches that Jesus is NOT the Father. However, the Oneness doctrine is correct by saying that the ONLY TRUE God is ONE God in ONE PERSON. So there is a little truth in BOTH of those false doctrines. And to me, the correct sound Biblical Jesus is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus that I teach, because that is what the Bible ITSELF teaches us in SIMPLICITY. Now again, it can also be interpreted that Jesus is speaking here on behalf of his Father. It may be that BOTH the Father and Jesus are speaking in these words to apply to themselves but in slightly different ways. But I personally believe that Jesus is speaking in BEHALF OF or FOR Yahweh. You see, when Jesus comes again, Almighty God the Father is coming with him, or more precisely Almighty God the Father is BRINGING his SON, Jesus WITH him. And they are traveling together in the city of God. But that is another study for another day. The reason I say that it can also be that Jesus is speaking for God the Father when he said “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last,” is because of the very next verse. Again, taking into account the CONTEXT.
Revelation 22:14.
“Blessed are they that do HIS commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates of the city.”
If Jesus were truly Almighty God HIMSELF as some falsely teach, then he would have said, “Blessed are they that do MY commandments.”
So it is my conclusion that just because Jesus seems to say of himself that he is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last does NOT prove that he is God, being FULLY God in the flesh and the one TRUE God, Almighty God who ALONE is the Father. Even IF the word of God clearly shows that Jesus says he is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last, it would still have to be ASSUMED that Jesus and Almighty God the Father are one and the same “God” on the basis that they both said they were Alpha and Omega. However, in doing this, I again say that one would have to IGNORE the rest of the word of God that CLEARLY and without a doubt teaches us that Jesus is God's SON and the Son of MAN. There are many verses of Scriptures that clearly show Jesus himself calling Almighty God the Father HIS GOD which simply CANNOT be interpreted any other way. And to me, the simplest way to reconcile there being TWO separate PERSONS called “God” is to understand the word “God” and being a TITLE like the word “King” is a TITLE. Anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear can clearly see that God set or APPOINTED His Son to be His King to rule for Yahweh in the world to come. So Jesus being God by TITLE does NOT contradict any other verse of Scripture in the Bible. Can you not see that Jesus being under and subject to his God and Father can NOT be interpreted in any other way? But on the other hand, EVERY single verse of Scripture that is used by those that teach the Trinity and that Jesus is God can INDEED be interpreted in another way. Whereas, there are ALSO many multiple verses the CLEARLY and PLAINLY show that Jesus is the SON of God, the Son of MAN, the Christ or anointed one, that he could do nothing of himself. Another verse of Scripture says that Jesus did not know the day or the hour, but God the Father knew. There are verse that teach us that Jesus is the servant of God, a fellow servant with us, our brother. Other verses teach us that Jesus has a will of his own that was different from his Father. And how about Jesus was tempted whereas God cannot be tempted. And there are many, many more, plainly stated facts that, without a doubt, prove that Jesus was not, is not, nor ever shall be Almighty God HIMSELF or even equal with HIS God and Father. And NOT ONE, NO NOT ONE single verse Scripture can be found that clearly and plainly states as a FACT that Jesus is the ONE TRUE and ONLY ALMIGHTY God Himself. For you see, while there can be many Gods under Yahweh, there can only be ONE Almighty God. But there can be an IMAGE OF God, there can be a REPRESENTATIVE of God, there cane be a servant of God. God can set or appoint one of His CREATURES to be His King. So why is it so hard for some Christians to see that God MADE His human Son Jesus to be both Lord and Christ AFTER the cross and resurrection, according to Acts 2:36. Please read the quick list of reasons why Jesus is GOD, but that Jesus is NOT THE ONE TRUE and ONLY ALMIGHTY God who ALONE is the FATHER entitled “37 THINGS TO PONDER ABOUT JESUS BEING GOD” Also, the other following studies will help you to also help others to come out of the false doctrine of Oneness and the false doctrine of the Trinity. All these studies consider all of the Scripture, which is why I use the term the WHOLE word of God. The whole word of God means all of the CONTEXT and ALL of the Scriptures, and NOT just a few vague, isolated verses that are taken out of their context. I also have all of my studies showing the errors of interpretation listed with links under one LINK. So if you are questioning either the doctrine of the Trinity or the doctrine of Oneness Pentecostal doctrine, then I implore you to read all the studies under the heading >>>VERSE used for the Trinity!<<< And in that subject heading I also have studies with links to all of the verses used to try and prove that Jesus pre-existed in the eternity past as God the Son. And I have my other subject heading >>>Is the Oneness doctrine BIBLICAL?<<< linked in the heading on the subject of the Trinity. This way you can send just ONE link to share with others in-depth Bible studies explaining WHY Jesus is the ANOINTED and Highly Exalted Son of MAN and not Almighty God Himself in the FLESH.
“THE DEITY OF JESUS AND THE TRINITY” “DID JESUS CREATE ALL THINGS?” “WHO is OUR SAVIOR, GOD or JESUS”
Thanks for reading and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God. Again, below are some other verses that are used to try and support the doctrine of the Trinity and the deity of Jesus during the days of his FLESH. There may be other verses which you may be having trouble seeing any other way than what you were dogmatically taught, but I assure you that each and every verse used by those who teach the doctrine of the Trinity and the doctrine of Oneness do indeed have a different meaning that does NOT CONTRADICT any other part of God's word.
