      John 1:1-3 tells us, "GOD" is a family name. That Father in Heaven, is the Father of.
      Next, we are told Father has a Manager by title of........ "THE WORD".
      They both are under the Umbrella family name of......... "GOD".
      Next, Father predates everything in existence and his Manager, predates everything after him.
      Next, we are told his Manager's name is Jesus.
      Thus, Father and Jesus are both God for that is their last name aka Family name which means Authority.
      Father has Spiritual Blood that everything is created from called "THE HOLY SPIRIT".
      By Father's Blood, we will be his Sons and Daughters by.
      Satan taught into mankind The Holy Spirit is a being and not Father's Spiritual Blood and thus, erased Father from everything since, it is his Blood that created everything by.

      @@letstalkbiblewithshun.s Indeed, there is only one God, the LORD (Yahweh, Jehovah). The scripture assigns many things to the one God, including judgement, forgivness of sins, and glory to no one else. My first post is a prime example. Isaiah prophesies clearly in 45:23 that "every knee shall bow to Me (the LORD)..", yet Paul (Phillipians 2) applies this prophecy to Jesus! This is the kind of paradox the first Christians had to explain, and we as well. You can make every excuse and explanation you want, but the fact is that Jesus, (the Word who was with God, and is God), is the LORD, as the Father is the LORD, and so the Spirit. "Baptizing them in the Name (singular) of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit" Why is it so hard to accept that the nature of God is above and beyond anything we can imagine? Be careful how dogmatic you are about this belief. Pray for wisdom from above. "Unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins...and they took up stones to stone him"...don't be counted with those who took up the stones. God help us!

      Judg 13:22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.

      1 Timothy 3:16 in the King James Version reads: "God was manifest in the flesh," referring to Jesus Christ. But most newer translations omit any reference to God and read, "He was manifest in the flesh" or "He who was revealed in the flesh." The discovery of older Greek manuscripts showed that the word "God" did not originally appear in this verse. The American Standard Version has a footnote that reads: “The word _God,_ in place of _He who,_ rests on no sufficient ancient evidence.” Apparently, this corruption of the text was introduced to support the Trinity doctrine.

      Based on the grammatical analysis of the Greek text "ὃς ἐφανερώθη ἐν σαρκί" (hos ephanerōthē en sarki) from 1 Timothy 3:16, the literal translation is "who was manifested in flesh" or "he was manifested in flesh." The text itself does not explicitly mention God or Yahweh becoming flesh. Instead, it uses a relative pronoun "who" or "he" to refer to a subject that is not specified within this verse. The passage simply states that this subject was manifested or revealed in flesh, without providing additional details about the nature or identity of the subject beyond this manifestation.

      Jesus is not God Yahweh, if he was god then the sacrifice wouldn't have the same value. God loved us so much he gave his own son.

Hence why God Yahweh chose Abraham, he showed his unwavering love by offering up his own child.

Plus the exodus is 3 15 mean he causes to become ? If Jehovah was Jesus who did Jesus pray to ? Him self or to yehovah as yehovah is immortal that’s means he carnt die impossible.

    Dr. Heiser - concerning epistemology (i.e. knowledge acquisition) - the Exhaustive Divine Determinist (aka Calvinist) whose doctrine stipulates that all knowledge which comes to pass is determined by a THEOS - must ultimately have to conclude that that THEOS infallibly decreed the Calvinist's doctrinal knowledge to be predominantly true. And that THEOS must have decreed a lesser state of doctrinal knowledge to everyone else.
    Since on that view - the Calvinist's state of Knowledge would have to be infallibly decreed to be predominately true compared to all other humans - doesn't that serve as a manifestation of Gnosticism?

    I doubt he’s YHWH. The New Testament said he’s Son of God because God is the one who started his life in his Mothers Womb, usually it’s a Human Male who would do this with seed, but instead God himself by his divine creative power simply miraculously started a child in a Virgin Woman. He’s a 2nd Adam but birthed and formed out of a woman not dust outside. And he is the only “Son of God” to be exalted to the point where all power in Heaven and Earth is given to him. Luke 1:35, Hebrews Chapter 1.

      The Father sends the Son, the Son dies for our sins, and then the Holy Spirit comes to seal us. These three steps are equally necessary for our salvation, with each Person of the Holy Trinity having a different and equally vital role in our salvation.

      by God and both were brought into being under circumstances that meant that only God could have accomplished their births.

      Psalm 110:1 shows that Jesus is not YHWH. According to the KJV it says: “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.” Who is speaking to whom? The Hebrew text for this verse includes the divine name YHWH (unfortunately, most Bibles substitute LORD in all caps for the divine name). In English this verse would read “Yahweh [or Jehovah] said to my Lord.” In Acts 2:34-36, Peter quotes Psalm 110:1 and explains that God is speaking to Jesus Christ.

It’s called eisegesis. Psalm 110 is not a messianic prophecy
      It has to do with rights and traditions given to the king at his throne in Jerusalem. There’s a note there in the SBL study Bible. I highly encourage you to buy one.

You can put your Christian interpretation on it all you want. It’s not meaningful to anyone except you. I can go back into the Bible and find Mohammed like Muslims do, it’s ridiculous. I don’t care about the Christian interpretation. We’re talking about human Jesus that was supposedly in your Old Testament. It’s nonsense. The point is the sound is not about Jesus. Read it and buy a good commentary. If you want to reinterpret it to your new Testament, reinterpretation go ahead. I don’t care. Apparently you don’t know anything about the Hebrew Bible and how they annoyed Kings. It’s not my fault. You’re another Christian that don’t know his Bible. You read the New Testament once in a while probably never finished it and you come up with these stupid interpretations. It wasn’t the ORIGINAL meaning. Why do people bother responding when you don’t even deal with what’s said. Psalm 110 is not about Jesus. So you believe in contradictions because you said it wasn’t about Jesus, but then you say the new reinterpretation says it is because you went to the book of ax. Keep making pretzels and twisting them the way you want to I don’t care I deal with scholars views. Learn hebrew and ditch the King James.

    I had a professor who aimed to have it both ways; he translated this as "uniquely begotten", which covers both possible roots together -- this was a guy who insisted that our system of listing possible English words for translating artificially distorts meaning and that we have to treat each Greek word as a set whose English-rendition members are not distinct so that they are all kept in mind unless the history of that word's usage shows a clear demarcation between subsets of meaning; he insisted that so long as we chose English words to translate the Greek as though our choice reflected the whole of the meaning of that Greek word we could never actually read Greek but were instead treating it as a fancy code that actually meant what our chosen English words do.

      @@traildude7538 Yes there is. Very few texts were originally written in greek. The apostles spoke Hebrew and Aramaic the only one of the apostles that actually did write in greek was Paul because he was the apostle to the gentiles. If you read Acts 26 when Paul fell off his horse he heard a voice from heaven in Hebrew. Now Paul was fluent in 5 languages so if he mentions that he heard a voice in Hebrew, it is a fact. Hebrew is the language of Heaven, it existed before creation and it is the Only language where the Truth can be found. The reason is that God has seen to it that His people could always have access to the unadulterated Truth free of the bias of the translators and of the influence of the great prostitute. The fact that you claim that there is no Hebrew text is just a witness to your ignorance of it.

      @@traildude7538 The original New Testament was written in Aramaic, which uses the same alphabet as Hebrew. The apostles as a rule from the oral traditions did not associate with non Jews and spoke Hebrew and Aramaic between themselves.
      If you study the Bible you will find that there was a big debate between them and Paul as they did not approve of his preaching to the Gentiles. Yeshua himself before his crucifixion stated:
      Matthew 10:5,6 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
      Matthew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
      Only after the crucifixion did He say: Matthew 28:19,20 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations in My name, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you, and remember, I am alongside you always, even to the end of the age.
      Therefore they did not write in Greek as it was not their target.
      You can believe what you want and follow the teachings of men. I prefer to go with what God teaches and Hebrew is the language He prefers in His communication with His people. It is impossible to get the right understanding when studying the Bible with a Greek frame of mind. Greeks believe there is only one possible way of interpreting a verse. Hebrews know that there are 70 levels of understanding.

    i do say "big deal Mike" as Monogenes as you point out means special or one of a kind. I agree. Did not God tell the serpent that the seed of the woman will crush his head, Gen3,15? a descendant of the woman (eve) through a daughter of Eve (Mary) as Gabriel said in Luke, is it not obvious as prophesied down through the ages that God would raise up a Messiah from Abraham and David, through all those mischievoius women in his lineage as you teach, and a lamb of sacrifice which He God then RAISES (not restores) just like the foreshadowing of Joseph being made Lord of Egypt UNDER Pharaoh (yet Joseph wasnt an egyptian) and so why cant the son of man, who is the son of God (as Gabriel said) and the second Adam be a man? A perfect sacrifice by YHWY (so it IS God who saves). That is very Monogenes!!!! Very special, but does not need to be a pre existing member of any "godhead." Why should Jesus have to be incarnate God?
    Have you forgotten your own teaching that "Angel" is a job description? The Angel of the Lord can be any spiritual son of God "representing" God in the office of Pleinipotentary. As other commenters have pointed out "representation" is a very Hebrew and biblical concept.
    I am not a JW folks and I share the gushing praise of Mike Heiser seen in these comments, revolutionized my biblical understanding, but must express this warning, the trinity is gnostic hellenism gone mad.
    Its not needed to explain Gods plan of redemption which He spoke into being as Jn1:1 etc points out... its personification of the word which God spoke. Word means what the dictionary says, a communication of intent, stop putting a capital W on it and insisting its Jesus incarnate, thats heresy. Thats making "another god!" (not to mention then making a third one.)

The fact is that Yeshua (Jesus) is the ONLY begotten Son of God so other mentions of sons of God do not matter as they were created and not begotten. The second point states that Isaac was not the only son of Abraham. That also is wrong. If you read your Bible you will see that before the miraculous conception of Isaac God changed both the name of Sarai to Sarah, and the name of Abram to Abraham. So Abram had fathered other children but not Abraham. He only had Isaac. So much for that foolish presentation.

    “For whom He foreknew (YOU and me), He also predestined to be CONFORMED to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn AMONG many brethren” (again, You and I).
    And Col. 1:15:
    “He is the image of the invisible God, the FIRSTBORN over all creation” (the NEW creation of 2 Cor. 5:17).
    And in verse 18:
    “And He is the Head of the body (you and I), the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead (us in our sin [Eph. 2:1-5; Col. 2:13] that in all things He may have the preeminence.”
    And last, but certainly not least, Hebrews 12:22-23:
    “But YOU have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn (you and I) who are REGISTERED in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men MADE (by Him, NOT you, or your religion) PERFECT.”

Acts 13:33 "God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee." Hebrews 1:5 "For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?"

    Very interesting take on the term "Begotten" even though for centuries we've understood it to mean "to give birth or bring into existence". I've noticed some of the newer Bible translations and commentaries are going in this direction. That's fine I guess because someone can technically be uniquely brought forth, for a specific purpose.
    Irregardless, for the sake of argument, whether begotten means "unique" or " to bring into existence" the context of its use throughout scripture is basically someone who is brought forth by the actions of another (see: Genesis 5, 7).
    Jesus is unique, NOT because he is YHWH, because in that case you would have YHWH begot YHWH. In such a case it would go against the Aseity of YHWH, because one YHWH would be dependent on another YHWH just to exist. Now you have 2 YHWH'S. That's Strange? Why the Trinity has to be read back into everything related to Jesus is beyond me?
    Jesus is unique (only begotten) Son of God because:
    1) He is the first and greatest Son of God brought forth by YHWH (Col 1:15, 17, Rev 3:14)
    2) He is the only Son of God through whom YHWH created all other Sons of God, and the subsequent universe. (John 1:1-3, 10, Col 1:16-17)
    3) He is the only Son of God through whom YHWH will reconcile and redeem all things back to Himself, and create the new universe. (Col 1:19-20)
    4) He is the only Son of God who reflects YHWHs' image . (John 1:18, Col 1:15, HEB 1:15)
    5) He is the only Son of God that YHWH chose to be the Messiah (Acts 2:36)
    6) He is the only Son of God YHWH chose to sit at HIs right hand (Mark 14:62)
    7) He is the only Son of God YHWH sent to save mankind from sin by becoming a human being and dying a human death for sin. (John 1:14, Phil 2:5-8)
    All of these reasons make Jesus a pretty unique ( i.e. Begotten) Son of God, but none of them make him YHWH the El Elyon (The Most High God).

    My brothers and sisters,
    Be aware of the wolves in sheep's clothing. History is repeating itself. It happened 2000 years ago. Jesus addressed it, Matt 23:13 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to."
    "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.' Psalms 82:6 and John 10:34 is a spiritual quote with great spiritual significance.
    The Gospel is not just God gave His only son Jesus Christ as a ransom for our sins. It is also about Jesus's earthly life and His teachings for us to be set free from sin and death.
    One of the most important teachings of Jesus Christ is for us to recognize our inheritance and to humble ourselves in obedience to God.
    Genesis 1:27: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”
    Because we are God' image and likeness we inherit His qualities and attributes. Not just that, because we were created by God He inevitably is our Father. That makes us His children and thus we are gods. We are all children the most high.
    This is why Jesus said, not to address any man as father except God.
    In the book of John 17:21 Jesus prays "that they(those who sincerely obey God) will all be one, just as you(Father God) and I(Jesus) are one." Jesus is bringing us back into the fold by His life(teachings), death and resurrection.
    Children of God doesn't mean we are equal to God and that we can do as we wish, be arrogant, totalitarian so on and so forth
    Children of God(gods) is to humble ourselves in total obedience to God.
    Obedience means to surrender to the will of God. Trust Him with all your being and be completely immersed in God's love this is obedience to God.
    Look what Christ did on the cross trusting God. " He completely surrendered Himself to God."
    Look what Christ did on the cross to be completely immersed in God's love. He said, "Father forgive them for they do not know what they do."
    "Love God with our entire being and to Love our neighbours as ourselves." With Love that is unconditional.
    This is the living example how a child of God should be.
    Philippians 2:6-8
    Though he was God,[a]
    he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to.
    7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges[b];he took the humble position of a slave[c]and was born as a human being.
    When he appeared in human form,[d]
    8 he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross.
    Can we all do this as a child of God?? Can we all obey God sincerely and completely?
    Look at the reward that awaits for those who humble themselves in obedience to God.
    Look what God did to Jesus and for Jesus.
    Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names,
    10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
    11 and every tongue declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
    Follow Jesus!!
    We become one with the Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen

    Good to see others have concluded the same things, viewing the topic from a different angle. As a Systems Engineer i see things from a more "information sciency pov",
    and the only thing that ties all of the elements together is: Jesus is God's "Avatar", his manifestation as a part of his creation, the vehicle he envisioned for himself.
    The Bible says FOR him everything was created. God wanted to have a human body, be able to walk around in 3 dimensional space, touch things, etc...
    To me reality is a numbers game, a simulation running on God's very mind. And "entering" this simulation requires a radically different being than the 11 (or probably
    even more) dimensional entity science would label the "Bolzmann Brain", while still sharing the same consciousness to a degree.
    What did Jesus mean when he sayd "if youve seen me, youve seen the father"? I am "inclined" to believe that indeed, Jesus is YHWH in the flesh.

    Dr. Heiser, thank you so much for all your work. Still stuck on this point: Adam is called a “son of God” (Gen.6:2; Job 1:6; 38:7; Lu 3:38); God made him, fine. Jesus is called only-begotten (or unique) in Joh 3:18. Fine, he is unique among the sons of God. But uniqueness does not necessarily qualify him for the same category as YHWH. I agree that other Scripture supports his Divinity, but the JW contention, as we know, does not support that view. So, how does Jesus’ uniqueness justify his higher(est) status among the Son’s of God, not as a Chief angel (which is unique) as the WT contends? To say it another way: how is his uniqueness, unique?
    -Respectfully, thank you.

      @Ghost In The Shell's The Laughing Man Your response is hard to follow, but after some more digging I think I found the answer to my question:
      (1) Heiser presses the point about “begotten”. That’s the clue ...
      (2) The Son says in Joh 14:28, “the Father is greater than I” (indicating the Son is not the Father and there’s a subordinate relation between them - ‘greater’ is different than ‘better in kind’)
      (3a) Which takes us to Heb 1, illuminating the relation even further: the Son’s comparison to angels (as “superior to” [v4] in kind - i.e. not a created angel) and, more importantly,
      (3b) Angles are not begotten [v5].
      (3c) Verses 6-14 is the high note fanfare, really cementing The Son’s identity as not a created angel [v 13] but God himself [vv 8,9], God calling the Son God

    The part that I have trouble with is Yhwh being the father that Jesus was referring to as _his_ father. Yhwh, lover with Asherah, is the opposite of Jesus in teaching and actions, and Jesus even said that the father of the jews was a murderer and liar, and not his father. Yhwh fits Jesus' accusations, by the records of his actions in the OT. It makes more sense to me that Jesus came to the jews to save them _from_ Yhwh and bring them to Jesus' father. Who is Jesus father? I don't know for sure, but my best guess is Elyon, "God Most High."

      Astute observation. Jesus condemns the actions/laws of YHWH in multiple instances (Matthew 5:38-48, John 8:41-45, Matthew 7:9-11 to name a few). He does not embody the harsh characteristics of YHWH. I’m not using gnostic apocrypha to do this research. It’s blatant in the Gospels. After comparing the 2 side by side, it makes little sense to say that Jesus is the Son of YHWH (and even less sense to say they are one in the same). People think just because the Christian Bible contains a version of the Jewish Tanakh that the Father that Jesus talks about is the same God of Judaism (well, there were other Gods [plural Elohim] in their religion before everything was dwindled down to just YHWH). It would be wise for people to learn to compare source texts in the original written language with the modern Bible they read in their native language. It reveals a lot and makes you dive deeper and learn to think for yourself. This is the journey I’m on.

    You make great videos. This is good, too, but I don't agree that Jesus is Yahweh. Partly out of my fear of the God of Abraham and violating His first commandment: Exodus 20:2
    “I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
    3You shall have no other gods before Me."a
    That little "a" at the end is a footnote for "Besides Me." Calling Jesus God would violate this commandment. And he didn't say "We." I don't mind being called a Jehovah's witness. (They got not keeping pagan holidays right.) The path is narrow and I am searching for it. The fewer on the path as I travel is probably a good sign. I just have to stay on the path. The Commandments is our map. The Holy Spirit is our guide.
    Several times God has revealed His presence or spoken to my heart. Here is an example of one of those times. It is little but true story that happened to me this year. I fear violating His law so draw your own conclusions keeping in mind that you should be on guard so nobody deceives you. I pray that I don't mislead anyone intentionally or unintentionally when it comes to God's word.
    I was driving home one afternoon listening to the radio. Tom Petty was on followed by Lynyrd Skynyrd. What do they have in common? Florida. I thought that was interesting. As I was driving I saw an old man with a long white beard on the right side of the road. There were bikes and bike trailers around and another person I didn't notice until later. They were obviously homeless. I try to keep some food and water in my car for the homeless. I passed by then thought I should turn around and give them some food. So, I turned right and turned right and turned right. I passed by some apartments...something Florida Apartments. I laughed thinking that yep, He is talking to me again. Well, it turned out I was on West Florida Avenue. Ok. It's on. Something is up. I got back onto Wadsworth and got to where the men were. The old man was gone but his things were still there but there was a young man with a bike that he fitted with a small engine and gas tank. I think his name was Brian. I got the food and some water bottles out and asked him to give it to the old man. He said he was homeless, too so I gave him the same amount. By "Chance" he was 33. He said he is from Colorado but he just got back from...Florida. I laughed again, pointed up and said, "He does this to me." I briefly explained what had happened so far. He was a smart young man that used to work construction fitting windows into highrise buildings. He mentioned that his favorite place in the world was West Palm Beach Florida. He said it is rough but he likes it. We spoke some more then I went home. That night I watched a video that was just posted from a Brother. He entitled it, "Jesus is Yahweh." His ministry is in Florida. I started to explain in comments how Jesus spoke about his Father in Heaven and that he was afraid before being crucified ("take this cup ..." Why would God be afraid?) and that it would make no sense for Satan to try to tempt Yahweh because they know each other and how can Satan offer God anything on this earth when the earth is His? Even Satan referred to Jesus as the son of God (I know, it was a question.) God even said that He is not a son of man that He miight change His mind - Numbers 23:19 God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind."
    God also spoke from heaven in the presence of Jesus. The example I grabbed was John 12:27
    "Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour. 28Father, glorify Your name!”
    Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”
    I didn't realize it until I found that text but Jesus changed his mind on this example! I don't believe in Coincidences anymore.
    I also said that we all felt the anguish when God commanded Abraham to sacrifice Isaac. A sacrifice means to lose something cherished or of value. What sacrifice is it to sacrifice yourself? Most parents would gladly step in front of a bus to safe their child. But to put your child in the path of the bus for another. That is a sacrifice. One our Jewish Brothers did not and do not see in front of their eyes and feel in their hearts. There is lots of foreshadowing in the bible
    And as I was typing the examples in the video comment I wondered where in Florida the man who made the video was. I looked it up. West Palm Beach. The favorite city of Brian.
    I have an AM radio in my bathroom set on a Christian station. It is low but I could hear it from the couch where I am now in the living room. As I was finishing up my comments that night a woman on the radio was quoting Christ saying the words he spoke were not his own. I think it was John 14:10 "The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me." So if the words are not the words of Jesus but of the Father how can Jesus be God? When Thomas said, "My Lord and My God" it was probably as Jesus said because God lives in him. The spirit descended and stayed upon him...? I know there are some scriptures that say Jesus is God but who said them? Do we understand them? If only the Father knows when the day that Jesus will returns is, then how can Jesus be a God? Gods know everything, right?
    Anyway, thank you for your videos. I am not educated in the Word but I seek the truth with fear and trembling. I am not sure of my salvation because I am not perfect and I don't know how much grace we will be given. Moses didn't get much. If I'm not lying what would be the chances of Florida popping up like this within 24 hours?
    Blessings to All who love The God of Abraham in the name of His son.

But in this video, we have a sort of start or an end, we don’t know, it depends on where Dr.Heiser wants to go with monogenḗs (3439) and I still don’t know his agenda concerning the Father, the deity of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, I’m not a scholar or Dr but his concept is close to Armstongnisme without Judaism.

In the US you are still in a comfort zone and after having watched YT/read a lot of Christian books even The unseen realm, then what I read over the comments people saying is that we have to pronounce Yha, Yawhe and another will say no! Jesus is not God, or we have to keep the sabbath then another will say I HAVE THE TRUE, WE ARE GODS! It’s too funny and sad at the same time, sometimes I wonder who people pray before they sleep and when they wake up…who is the God they pray to…
    I like the simplicity of Christ and the Christians in the Bible and the Apostle Peter standing up with the eleven lifted up his voice… For these are not drunken, as ye suppose! I love it! No one learned a foreign language, but they have spoken the truth. Just try to imagine the scene in 21st with all our knowledge and new material. Also, when I read the letters of Erasmus to Dorpius and his Banker or The Praise of Folly I have more food compared to what I listen to from the churches in the US however we are poor, no pride here we are less blessed than you regarding Christianity free speech!
    If I had the studio of Dr.Heiser and his knowledge I would have millions of converted in Christ, at least I would use my second nature…because I will let them know the position of Jesus-Christ regarding his Gospel. Dr.Heiser, it’s a tip of coaching.
    Love you all and peace in Christ!

    Isaiah 53:2 and Isaiah 53:4 explains why Jesus is unique. I believe that’s why they murmured about him in his home town and Jesus saying “ You will say to me, “Physician, heal thyself”. I believe that’s why his own people rejected him. I believe also that’s why when the guards came to arrest him they fell backwards at the sight of him. I believe that he was short and that’s why someone had to climb a tree to see him. I believe that’s why he was paraded and draped before his execution. I believe that he died before the other two men on the stakes because he was small and he bled out quicker because of how they had to secure him to it.
    I believe that they were expecting a mighty warrior to come in and save them and Jesus was not what they had pictured.
    All of the other gods were big and mighty.
    Jesus was small, tender, humble, considered afflicted by God and and nothing to look at. To be considered afflicted he must have had the appearance of an affliction.
    You don’t see that in the artists depiction of him today.
    When you think about it, why would God portray himself any other way to get people to humble themselves and walk a mile in others shoes?
    I also believe that The ark of the covenant is under the rocks and earth where he was crucified and when the rocks were rent his blood dripped down onto the mercy seat and that’s when Jesus said “It is finished”. Just like Ron Whyatt had said.
    I believe that Jesus didn’t just bear our sins on the cross like most people would like to believe.
    I believe that he bore our sins physically also.
    That’s God’s mercy and that’s God’s Sacrifice.
    That to me is the biggest love story in history, and it’s “His story” ❤️.
    Thank you Lord Jesus ❤️.
    Don’t trust in these people that are claiming they will wipe out all diseases with putting poison into your systems. Trust in God because that’s not going to happen until The books are open and God weeds out all evil.

    I'll just ask one question. How can you possibly call yourself monotheistic if this is your belief? It's irrelevant who is unique or who is the most powerful. If there are truly multiple gods, albeit they apparently are just sitting around twiddling their thumbs or something, then this is not monotheism.

      @Thoska Brah You are right that the trinity in itself makes Christianity a pluralistic religion. However, I wasn't even referring to that. I was talking about the fact that he believes there are other gods besides the trinity. If a Christian wants to tell themselves that this nonsensical notion of 3 gods in one makes sense and is in fact still one God, that's one thing. But to claim that the view pre-jesus and all throughout biblical times was that there were multiple deities is painting this view that there actually never was anything called monotheism. This is what makes no sense since if that's the case, Abraham was no different than any other pagan who believed in multiple gods. He believed one was supreme but that can't be what made him so special. There had to have been a radical idea that he had which differentiated him from everyone else in the world. This was the belief that there was only one God and only one being who did it all. Btw I've heard apologists admit that the trinity makes no sense but they believe in it anyway. How could anyone wrap their heads around that?? If the nt says that there is one and then the father and every christian prays to one and not the father, how can any rational person not see a pluralism here?

      @Thoska Brah It might just be semantics but the contemporary term "God" is used for a being who is all powerful. If he is calling these beings gods then he is saying, at least in the contemporary way of speaking, that there are multiple supreme beings. I'm not saying there aren't spiritual beings. Of course there are. But they are all created beings. A god is not created. Elohim by the way does not mean spiritual being. This is where so many get confused. The root of the word is el which simply means power. Yes, God is referred to with this title most of the time but so are judges, angels and even Moses in Exodus 7:1. Genesis 6 for example does not and contextually can not be talking about any type of spiritual being.
      As far as the trinity, there is no place where an angel is distinct from God. It might appear that way but all these cases are God speaking through an angel. Let me ask you a question. If you were to write a bible and you want to portray the idea that God is one and it's only Him, what would you write? I would assume you would say that you would write "God is one and there is no other" "there is none besides Me". What is unclear from these verses that are all over the bible? It means there is one God. Period! The question you need to ask is if you read the bible without any preconceived ideas about jesus, would you ever in a million years think there was more than one real God? Everyone is reading this with a Christological eye. This is not how you read scripture. Yes, I know there are many verses which say "gods". However, this simply means your gods who you think are powerful. They aren't actual gods.

      @Thoska Brah Totally right. But this is NOT what Heiser says. He thinks elohim is referring to other uncreated beings. This is not only unfounded, it is also complete heresy.

    • @nothingbutthetruth613
      @nothingbutthetruth613 3 роки тому

      @Thoska Brah Again, if he thinks Psalm 82 is referring to Gods, then he is saying they are supreme beings. It is irrelevant if they have the same qualities. If they are being called Gods by Heiser, he is making them into a deity. This is pluralism and is wrong and contradicted by the bible. Psalm 82 does not say sons of God. It doesn't even say sons of elohim there. But like I said, elohim does not mean God. I ask the same question as before. If you wanted to write a bible and say that there is only one God and no other gods in any shape or form, in what way would you differ from the way the bible says this? "God is one" over and over and over. I think you would say the exact same thing to convey this message.

    • @nothingbutthetruth613
      @nothingbutthetruth613 3 роки тому

      @Thoska Brah My friend, you are contradicting yourself and not understanding. First you said elohim means God and the you said you understand that it doesn't just mean a deity. If you refer to something as God, in modern terms this word means deity. Simple! Elohim does not mean God. Should I write that again. Elohim does NOT mean God. It means powers and this is why other things are called this too. Psalm 82 does not say God. It's referring to angels and spiritual beings. Heiser tries to say that every time it says elohim it means gods i.e. supreme beings. He uses that to claim that there were other deities that the pre-jesus Israelites believed this. This is wrong and baseless. The only reason for his adamant attempt to convince everyone of this is to somehow legitimize the trinity. Otherwise, who cares what they believed then? Why try so hard to teach people this? It's because by saying that pluralism was the accepted belief system, then the trinity is not so abhorrent and not so contradictory to what the bible clearly says "God is one" all over.
