-Removed-From Proverbs 30
The words of Agur son of Jakeh. The oracle.
The man declares, I am weary, O God; I am weary, O God, and worn out.
Surely I am too stupid to be a man.
I have not the understanding of a man.
I have not learned wisdom, nor have I knowledge of the Holy One.
Who has ascended to heaven and come down?
Who has gathered the wind in his fists?
Who has wrapped up the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is his name, and what is his son's name?
Surely you know!
Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
Do not add to his words, lest he rebuke you and you be found a liar.
Why did you alert my posts sonship? 🙂
If by "alert" your post you mean you suspect that I pushed the exclamation mark to notify the webmaster of your post - I did not do that.
If you suspect that I was the reason why your post was removed, I WAS NOT THE CAUSE.
I have more important things to be involved with (if that is what you are talking about).
Divegeester,
I would ask you a question about your belief in a non-eternal Son of God.
Why, if the Son of God was no longer needed, did not God just leave Him DEAD when He was crucified?
Expressed in other words - when the Son died accomplishing redemption, WHY not God just leave Him DEAD? What was the need for Him to be resurrected ?
I welcome this assertion by you, if it is true, and I do believe you.
Furthermore then, I apologise for assuming it was you.
Thankyou. I have nothing against the summary in and of itself.
I mean the form or style of you expressing your thoughts in that way is fine with me.
I can freely refer back to each line of that creedal like paragraph if I need to.
Right now I want to know what your thoughts are about "Well, once Jesus died for our redemption, WHY couldn't God just leave Him dead, if a Son was no longer necessary?"
None of this interferes with the deity of jesus, the lordship of jesus the names of Jesus. We still access the father through jesus because that is the given name by which we are saved.
Okay, you highlight this as the crucial point.
I got it.
But you have the name remaining but the Person behind the name goes away ??
