“He never speaks of Himself directly as God, but the aim of His revelation was to lead men to see God in Him.” (Westcott, The Gospel According to St. John, p. 297).
“(John) does not expressly affirm the identification of the Word with Jesus Christ.” (Westcott, Ibid., p. 16).
“(Rev. 3:15) might no doubt bear the Arian meaning, the first thing created.” (Hort, Revelation, p.36).
I would like to give a special thanks to my family and fellowship for teaching me these truths and scriptures for as long as I can remember.
I am also very greatful to the ministry that taught them this truth (The Way) and its founder Dr. Wierwille for his work in this field. It is worthwhile to note his major book on this topic (Jesus Christ Is Not God) as well as not to neglect the countless teachings him and his ministry have provided me that dive deep into the many verses related.
I am also very thankful for the work of John W. Schoenheit, Mark H. Graeser, John A. Lynn for carrying forth this message and their work in One Lord and One God.
There are countless others that have made a deep impact on me regarding this field, from simple conversations to your boldness in proclaiming this with all who are willing to hear. Thank you!
Have you ever asked yourself, if Jesus was not God, what part of the rest of the bible doesn’t fit?
For example, if there was no resurrection from the dead, then there are a lot of things within the bible which stop fitting…such as eternal life and the promise to so many looking forward to the coming kingdom.
