Christian/Muslim ThreadsWE, US. OUR !!!!!!!!!!HI H2O! Loki, who is another person wrote the SAME EXACT WORDS as me! God is a class of being just as man and woman are classified. God is not to be identified as a personal name but as a class of being. The only proper noun or personal name given to God is Jehovah, not GOD. Genesis 1:26 - And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Adam and Eve are both classified as man when the LORD made MAN in His image, i.e., a class of being. kai ho logos en pros ton theon{the word was with the God} as a class of being, The Son and His eternal subsistence with "pros" the Father. Not a separate being, and the word "was" still the eternal, GOD. He was in the truest sense identical with God. The preposition pro\j, in the accusative case not only indicates towards or direction, but is also used often in the sense of as a living union and communion, the NT demonstrates this on many occasions. The divine Word not only dwelled with the Father from all of eternity, but was actively in relation and communion with Him. On another note, even if it was rendered as "a god" it still would not make a difference at all, why? EXAMPLE: "A man is a leader of a nation" and saying definitely: "That man is the leader of his nation".Titus 2:5 - To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. The words "man" and "leader" and "nation" are defined identically, although used definitely or indefinitely. This is also true in John 1:1, and every other place in the Bible! So indefinitely saying "The Word is a God" is very much identical as to saying definitely: "The Word is the God". God Bless! |
