I was not going to respond anymore but I was drawn by your sudden gain of understanding of the word Unity. I have already made a comparison of the word "One" which is the same Greek word used in these two verses, read it carefully and see for yourself.
Mark 12:32 - And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is (one) God; and there is none other but he:
John 17:23 - I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in (one); and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Same word used in both verses:"One"1520{heis}
After being baptized, *Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw *the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him, and behold, *a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased." Mt 3,16-17;
So please tell me who was speaking to Jesus the Son? Was it Jesus Himself? Do you not see the Father, Son and Spirit in unity here???
John 17:5 - And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee "before"4253{pro} the world was.
Yahweh- Father
Messiah- Son
BaruchaKodesh- Holy Spirit
Would that correspond to the GodHead?
I think I just popped a Brain cell but I may be getting it; WE GET TO THE FATHER THROUGH JESUS, Yahweh God is pure and good 100%; even if were 99.99% we can't get to Heaven because that .1% would defile Yahweh for our "Righteousness is like filthy rags unto him". Accepting the sacrafice gets us to 100%, so we won't be an abomination.
Those who Trust Christ get New Bodies, bodies of Light; This is the reward
actually not really a reward it's freely given, it's like getting a present from THE FATHER on Christmas ohh and if you give it back or dont take it THE FATHER will be sad.
I really don't know from where I got this all from, THIS IS WEIRD. :roll:
