| 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. Romans
1:20 |
The invisible or spiritual
things of God can be clearly seen, understood, by the things
that are made. There is no excuse for us not to understand the
Godhead, which is clearly seen by looking at God's creation.
| In
the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1 |
Creation is a process, which
began in the mind of God, with a thought.
| And
the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the
face of the deep
|
The earth is without form,
nothing has been made yet. It is still just a thought in God's
mind.
| And
the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2 |
The Spirit of
God is His Might, His Strength, His Power, an Omnipotent
Force or Energy.
| And
God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Genesis 1:3 |
God spoke, the word of God
being His seed. "Now the parable is this: The seed
is the word of God." Luke 8:11.
Spirit and
word; Energy and seed. These are the two divine attributes
of God or "two anointed ones." Zech. 4:12-14.
| And
God said, Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness. Genesis 1:26 |
The "us"
and the "our" is God, His Spirit
or Energy, and His word or
seed. Not 1, not 3, but 3 of 1.
Each of us is made in this
way... a man, sows his seed, by his energy, into the woman, the
potential mother.
This brings us to The
Godhead so many are familiar with... Father, Son,
Holy Spirit.
The Hebrew name for
God is ELOHIM, in which we find the image of God.
EL=Father OH=Son IM=Holy Spirit
The "IM" in
EL-OH-IM is the "I AM."
The Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit are represented in the three patriachs:
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Abraham is referred to as " father."
Isaac is Abraham's son, Abraham's
seed... "In Isaac shall thy seed
be called." Romans
9:7.
Jacob is associated with the word "mighty"...
"the mighty God of Jacob" God's might,
strength, power, spirit or energy.
Genesis 49:24; Psalms
132:2,5; Isaiah 10:21; Isaiah 49:29; Isaiah 60:16
The three: father,
seed, and energy are of one...
| For there are three which testify; the
SPIRIT, and the WATER, and the BLOOD; and the three are of
one. 1 John 5:7,8 (original
Greek) |
| For
there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father,
the Word, and the Holy Spirit: and these three are one. 1 John 5:7 (KJV). |
Heaven symbolizing the spiritual. As (spiritual)
fathers we have our word (be it truth or lie) and our spirit
(be it holy or unholy).
| And
there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit,
and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 1 John 5:8 (KJV) |
The earth symbolizing
the phsyical as we are physically made up of spirit,
(the energy of the body) water, and blood.
Let's look at the three that
"bear record in heaven" to see the spiritual...the
Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit .
Is our father
God or the devil? Is our word the truth
or a lie? Is our spirit love or fear?
| If God
were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and
came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. John 8:42 |
Jesus was the physical manifestation
of the Word of God. Being the Seed
of God he came forth from the loins of his Father.
"...neither came
I of myself."
The seed does not sow itself. The father
sows it by his energy, as God sowed His Word by His Spirit.
| In the
beginning was the word, and the word was with the God,
and a god was the word. John
1:1 (orignal Greek
) |
| In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. John 1:1 (KJV). |
AND THIS IS WHERE
ALL THE CONFUSION COMES FROM!
Both versions agree that "the
word was with God," which Jesus attests to by saying
"I and my Father are one." John 10:30
The father and the seed are
one (or more
precisely) of
one before
the father's seed is sown into the mother. When the seed (the
word of God) separated from the Father, from God (being sown
into the earth) it (through the process of time) produced fruit,
a son, a god, which is where the two versions diverge. The
greek saying, "a god was the word," the
KJV saying, "and the Word was God."
When the Jews took up stones
to stone him (John
10:30) he goes on to explain that by saying
"I and my Father are one" he is saying
that his works and the Father's works are one. Jesus' works were
good, as were the Father's... "And God saw that it
was good."
Genesis 1:10, 12, 18,
21, 25 31.
| "...
Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of
those works do ye stone me? The Jews answered him, saying, For
a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because
that thou, being a man, makest thyself God." John 10:33 |
Jesus never said
he was God. The religious peoples of his day said he claimed
to be God, just as they are claiming Jesus is God today.
God's works were the creation of a heaven and earth, Jesus' works
providing the instruction for the creation of a new heaven and
earth, a spiritual heaven and earth, which takes place through
six spiritual days of spiritual works (found
in the first 6 churches of Asia).
| If he called
them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and
the scripture cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the father
hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because
I said, I am the Son of God? If I do not the works
of my Father, believe me not. But if you do, though ye believe
not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that
the Father is in me, and I in him. John
10:35-38 |
Jesus did not care if they
did not believe him. He wanted them to believe the works, which
is to obey the works, to put action to the works, which Jesus
spoke of and illustrated while he was on earth. For it is through
these works that we become a son of God,
a god, having completed the creation of
our "new heaven and earth" through the power
of God's word, which being the holy
seed of God is truth, which when sown into the heart through
spiritual works causes our "first
heaven and earth," (a creation that took place as a
result of an unholy seed being sown into the heart through
an unholy spirit) passes away.
| 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.
Romans 1:20 |
THE GODHEAD IS THE
FOUNDATION UPON WHICH ALL SPIRITUAL TRUTH IS BUILT.
