A Critique of Practicing the Way, Part 2 - Diminishing the Deity of Christ, presented by Bob DeWaay and Barb Gretch. Comer claims that Jesus did not call people to convert and become Christians. We refute this claim and defend the intensity of our need for Christ. We are commanded to repent and believe. We show that no one qualifies to be an apprentice of Christ.

Sunday, April 27, 2025 – Today, we are beginning a short series discussing the Fellowship of the Assemblies of God. This will be more of a teaching series than a preaching series, just so you are aware if you are interested in watching. I begin today by giving a short overview of the Assemblies of God’s national, international, and local organization. The reason is that it’s important for those who choose to call this their home church to understand whom they are worshipping under and submitting to. We are very transparent and open to any questions you may have regarding who we are and what we believe. After this, I will begin a study on the 16 Fundamental Truths or Tenets of our Faith. It’s essential for us to have a solid foundation of our faith, beginning with a sincere and unwavering belief as we discuss the first three tenets: The Bible is the inspired Word of God, secondly, The One True God, and then finally, for today, The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. You are strongly encouraged to worship and study along with us online or come be with us on Sundays at 10:30.

This evening Assistant Pastor Jarrod Bevan preaches on The Deity of Christ.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

The Person of Jesus-The Deity of Christ Part 3 by David Antwi

We look at a number of apparent theological paradoxes that are resolved in the same way, according to the principle that: “the entirety of Your WORD is TRUTH” (Ps 119:160). In each case, there are a set of Scriptures that emphasise one truth and another set of Scriptures that emphasise a different truth, but it can seem hard to see how to hold both truths together as they don't seem to fit. Some examples are: (1) the Prophecies of the Sufferings and Glory of Christ (Luke 24:25), (2) the Goodness and Severity of God, (3) God's Sovereignty and man's free-will, (4) the fact that Christ is both God and man (the hypostatic union), (5) the Tri-unity of God, and (6) how we can be forgiven in Christ (as far as our relationship is concerned), and yet still need forgiveness (as far as our fellowship with God is concerned). In each of these cases, people can easily go into a ditch on either side of the road of truth by choosing the set of Scriptures they like, and then ignoring or explaining away the Scriptures on the other side. The answer is found in realising that both sets of Scriptures are fully true, because there are 2 distinct (but related) realms of truth (if you can try to reconcile the 2 truths by mixing them together, you end up compromising and destroying them both - for example, by saying Christ is a semi-god and a semi-man, whereas the truth is that He is fully God and fully man). On the basis that all Scripture is true, we should embrace both revelations of truth, then seek God for a deeper understanding of how both sides can be fully true. When we do this, we will be rewarded with a fuller revelation of God's truth.

Jesus is deity. He is God robed in flesh. His' titles, works, and the life He lived all declare that He is God.
In this current podcast we discuss another HIGH cost to payfor any deity of Christ interpretation of Scripture. All deity of Christ claims not only dishonor the Father, but they also dishonor the Christ, the man Jesus of Nazareth, the Jew who was born in Bethlehem some 2000 years ago. In fact, all deity of Christ claims in the end deny that the human person Jesus Christ ever existed.
Questions about what to say to longtime, active churchgoers who don't believe in the Trinity or the deity of Christ, and a challenge to the idea that it's possible for someone to have a relationship with Jesus today. What should I say to family members who have been active churchgoers for 40 years, but who don't believe in the Trinity or the deity of Christ? Do you claim to have a relationship with Jesus—someone you never met—who died 2,000 years ago and hasn't been seen since? That seems like the definition of a delusion, an imaginary friend in the sky.

Why does Christ's supremacy over all things matter? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper examines Hebrews 1 to show how this truth shapes our worship, assurance, and view of Christ's reign.
Deity of Christ Interpretations of the Bible Dishonor the Father, the Only True God If Jesus is God, then God the Father is not the one true God. The claim that “Jesus is God” becomes the main building block used by humans to construct a multi-person god. If Jesus is one member of a multi-person (or a Triune god) then the multi-person god is the one God, and the Father is not. Mainstream Christians agree that there is one God. “Weare monotheists. We believe in one God”. But for mainstream Christians, the one God is made up of three persons. Either the Father, a singular self, is the one true God, or a multi-person god is the one God. But if the Father is the one true God, then the claim that “Jesus is God” (that God is multi-persons) is an attempt to denigrate the only true God -- the Father. What deity of Christ and Trinitarian interpreters are doing is attempting to put another god on the face of and in the place of our God and Father. The HIGH cost of any “deity of Christ” interpretations is an attempt to claim that the Father is not the one, the only true God. Christians need to decide: who is your God. Either the Trinity, or the Father alone. Your God can't be both.For full text of the podcast, see here:https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2025/03/the-high-cost-of-deity-of-christ.html#deityofchrist, #biblicalunitarian, #billschlegel

In this episode we explain how the deity-of-Christ interpretation of John's Gospel is wrong. Three, Yea verily Four Keys to Understanding John's Gospel 1. The Purpose statement of the author, John 20:30-31 “Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” The original target audience of the Gospel of John was Israelites in the Diaspora. John wrote to convince and help them to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. See more below. 2. In John's Gospel, Jesus declares that he is a man who told the truth which he heard from God. John 8:40, “but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.” Jesus differentiates himself from God. Jesus is a man, not a god-man, not one person of God who is incarnated in a human nature. Jesus states that he is a human being, a man who declares the truth that heard from someone else, specifically, from God. 3. In John's Gospel, Jesus declared that the Father is the only true God. John 17:1-3 “Father… this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent. The God that was speaking and working in and through the man Jesus was the Father. Christology of John is agency, not incarnation. Jesus as God's unique human son was sent by God and as such represented God, is to be regarded as the very presence of God (the Father) who sent him. 4. John is an Israelite, writing to Israelites. He is not writing originally to Gentiles. a. Metaphors, figurative language. John 10:6 (context is the thief vs. the shepherd), “This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.” John 16:25, "I have said these things to you in figures of speech.” Come into the world, come down from heaven, “This is the bread that has come down from heaven” (6:50) “the bread I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” (Joh 6:51) Jesus' flesh literally descended from heaven? “The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from man” (Mar 11:30) means “Was John's baptism of heavenly or of human origin?” (Mar 11:30) b. “Jews” means “Judeans”. “He came to his own, but his own received him not”. Samaritans, and Israelites in Galilee and Perea accepted him. c. “world” does not mean planet earth, but the Israelite world. The world that God loved (John 3:16), is Israel. Resources: In the Gospel of John the “Jews” are Judeans, Not All “Jews” https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2022/02/in-gospel-of-john-jews-are-judeans-not.html The “Greeks” in John's Gospel are Greek Speaking Israelites, not Gentiles https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-greeks-hellenists-in-gospel-of-john.html What About John 1:1? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw44JRTIiV0

The Attributes of God Applied to Christ
Does the New Testament refer to Jesus as God? Though this is an important question, it’s only a starting point for wrestling with who Jesus is. In what follows we’ll consider the evidence from five scholars on what texts they say attribute deity to Christ. Then we’ll examine the biblical evidence that pulls in the opposite direction, suggesting that Jesus was not God. Lastly, we’ll examine five major possibilities for interpreting this data, including trinitarianism, modalism, Arianism, Greco-Roman polytheism, and biblical unitarianism.

The Attributes of God Applied to Christ
Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit writes a stunning and beautiful passage about Jesus in Colossians 1:15-20. When Paul is thinking about Christ and His work, he uses the repeated phrases of “all things” and “everything”. In these repeated phrases he is reminding his readers of the definite, certain, complete and finish work of the Jesus, who is fully and completely God.

Pastor Jeff emphasizes the importance of understanding the true identity of Jesus Christ as God, eternal, and the Creator of all things in his sermon. He highlights that Jesus is not only the source of life but also the light that dispels darkness, urging listeners to grasp the significance of believing in the biblical Jesus rather than a misconstrued version. Throughout the message, Pastor Jeff reinforces two main truths: that all authority lies in Jesus as the God-man and that fidelity to His identity is crucial for genuine faith. He calls on everyone to embrace Jesus Christ fully, inviting those who haven't yet done so to accept His life-giving gift. Speaker: Jeff Schwarzentraub
Why is Jesus the only one through whom we can approach God? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper turns to Hebrews 7:26–8:5 for an exploration of Jesus's unique role as our High Priest.
