Anthony Rogers: How God Appeared as a Human in the Old Testament

- We invite you to join us for a twist on our normal Conversations with Jewish Believers In Jesus, hosted by Jeff Morgan. In this episode, Jeff has an important discussion with theologian Anthony Rogers about how God revealed himself in human form in the Hebrew Scriptures.
Anthony Rogers came to faith in Jesus in 1993 while he was incarcerated in the Southern Desert Correctional Institution in Indian Springs, Nevada. After his release, he felt compelled to work in Christian ministry. After many twists and turns of God’s divine providence-during which time he got married to a Jewish woman, had children, and went to college, Rogers was eventually accepted into the divinity program at Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. He graduated in 2018, and the very next year, Calvary Presbytery called Rogers to be the pastor of prison ministries. He now serves in this capacity as the Regional Director for Metanoia in South Carolina, where he lives with his wife and three of his four children.

Very good to hear, thanks to both of you.
Jesus is the Promised One!
Amen amen ❤
I went to the book store where GOD Sent me. I found The Bible and opened it to the table of contents. Noticing that it was not just one book but also several books arranged into two section, The Old and The New Testament, I became confused. I knew that GOD was the opposite of confusing. I knew from past experience that GOD was always perfectly clear with me. I thought, "....how can this be? There must be a segway, there must be a transition."
I turned to the Last Book of The Old Testament. It opened to passage Malachi 3 - 1.....
GOD Says:
“Behold, I will send My messenger, who will prepare the way before Me. Then the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to His temple-the Messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight-see, He is coming,” says the LORD of Hosts.
(Malachi 3 - 1)
Thank you Jeff and Anthony God bless you and all Israel peopel.yesuah is the lamb of God.
I came to earth on a mission from God....I make bad people disappear believe it or not....and yes God looks like us as Jesus did.... The second last time I spoke to God face to face was in November 2015 and he told me that I too am a God....my name is King David
Thank you I love your content! I’m a follower of Yeshua in America & hav Jewish neighbors I tell them about Him in their Hebrew Scriptures! But I never thot about Jesus in the story of Joseph in how you portrayed it. And I loved the thot of Abraham & Sarah looking forward to the Lord’s return….me too!
❤🙏
Cool convo the ending about John 8 and Genesis 18 😮🤯 Amen!
And, just started to learn about that tradition of the Passover Seder of breaking the bread and hiding it. If that’s not Yeshua, than what is 😆
Jeff, will there be a schedule of the churches you’ll be speaking about in the states? Any in Central Florida?? 🙏🎣❤️🔥🥖

JEFF, YOU MENTIONED THEY LOOK TO RABBIS MORE THAN SCRIPTURE.
SADLY, THE MAJORITY OF SO CALLED CHRISTIANS LOOK TO SO CALLED PASTORS INSTEAD OF TO THE LORD AND HIS WORD.
SHALOM!
MARANATHA!
Amen Jesus is God

Thank you for sharing The Truth what is based on The Holy Bible! And what does it mean when anywhere everyone said freedom of God then they declare together saying to the World what is not based in The Holy Bible Words but according the culture. There's everything enters into The Holy Land too today where you are said freedom of religion!
HASHEEM❤
Isaiah 45:23((N.L.T.))🕊️
I thought that Jews for Jesus was a contrived or joke thing. You all seem serious and sincere.
From a gentile: I thought about asking a non-Messianic Jew if he believed that a 90 year old woman could give birth to a baby. For some reason Sarah could not have children within the age range in which women are fertile. At age 90 Sarah knew that her womb (uterus) was essentially "dead". Her uterus was atrophied to the point that it was primarily scarlike tissue. If God could cause a woman with an essentially dead uterus to give birth to a baby, could God cause a woman who had not have any sex with any male to give birth to a baby?
Repent and believe the gospel. Everybody needs Jesus. Only Jesus can save lost sinners. Jesus wins and the devil loses be on Jesus's side.
Thank you 🙏🇮🇱
Im a Christian and I believe in Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear oh Israel, the LORD our God is One" which Jesus said is the greatest commandment. I do not believe in the trinity as separate people but I believe strictly that God is one and Jesus is His name. Jesus is the only person of the Godhead. I don't understand how Jewish Christians can believe in the trinity and not understand the oneness of God.
How much time would you like to invest in the subject ?
Trinity is one Yehovah who reveal Himself to us as the Father (because He created everything that exist), the Word of God (Yehovah operating in the physical realm) and the Spirit of God (Yehovah operating in the spirit realm), different function but same Yehovah.
Devarim/Deuteronomy Chapter 4!
"HASHEM Spoke to you from the midst of the fire; you were hearing the sound of words, but you were not seeing an image, only a sound!"
"But you will be greatly careful for your souls; for you did not see any image on the day HASHEM Spoke to you at Horeiv, from the midst of the fire."
You are acting corruptly and you will answer to HASHEM on the day of your death.
Amen 🙏
Don't you think you could be taking the verse out of context to suite you ?
3:03 amen! The promise is to the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve of
• salvation from the domination of sin
• redemption from the power of death, degeneration, degradation and decay
• deliverance from the power and presence of evil.
7:50 and Joseph is the first born of Jacob and Rachel… a very special son, to inherit his father’s legacy. A very powerful reason for the other offspring of Jacob to be jealous!
We can trust our Heavenly Father to arrange His affairs among His children, whether they were specially chosen for a specific legacy, or whether they were given the right to be joyful sons and daughters of His love.
I'm still listening🌹 but I'm at that part where he's talking about how can you be a Jew and not believe in God... I don't know if I'm the only one but I thought you was a bloodline but it's a belief? A religion? And what's the difference between a Hebrew and a Israelite?
Jesus was the last Adam. Jesus regained (and more) what Adam lost.
In the OT God gave Israel the Mosaic Law (Covenant), pointing too the One Who would come and keep it for us.
In the NT Jesus is the New Covenant, in that He fulfilled the Law and kept it on our behalf for those who will believe in Him. By our Belief (Faith) God sees us as keeping the Law (Abraham Believed and God accounted it to him as righteousness).
The Law condemns, but Grace imputes Gods Righteousness to the Believer.
The True Believer is Sanctified (cleansed), Justified (imputed with Gods Righteousness), and soon to be Glorified (Perfected/Sinless/Immortality).
Undergoing Sanctification until finally Glorified.
The Bloodline was created by God ... by choosing Abraham ... and promising he would be a Father of Nations ... through Jacob ( Israel).
A Hebrew is a descendant of Abraham ... or a member of his tribe.
The Israelites .. are descendants of Jacob ... and are today called the Jews ... due to the Kingdom of Judah not being assimilated by the Assyrians and 10 tribes were lost with the fall of the northern Kingdom of ... Israel.
You have freewill ... to accept or reject God ... whether you are a religions or secular Jews.
Most Israelis ... are humanis Liberals ... do not believe in the God of Abraham, Issac & Jacob (Israel) ... but believe in a 13.8 billionyear old Universe & evolution ....or follow a political, cultural or religious ideology.
Maybe that's the whole gospel there too then. Because God didn't spare His son like Isaac was spared. Abraham believed God would raise him from the dead though. We believe God did raise Him from the dead.
Our Heavenly Father said everyone put the 🍎 s back in the basket of rebellious angels he called false gods in his commandments and he has direct contact with his prophets.
The Lambs Book 📖 vs angels
Our Heavenly Father called fallen angels false gods in his commandments and there's a pads with wings section of his discipline.
In the first sentence of Genesis 1:1, God reveals Jesus in the word Bereshit (בראשית). If you use the Jewish symbols, you can clearly see that God destroyed the Son by His own hand on the cross.
Look up first 10 men’s names from Adam to Noah it tells of Jesus coming
Man. Adam
Appointed Seth
Incurable. Enosh
Sorrow. Kenan.
Blessed God. Mahahalel
Come down. Jared
Teaching. Enoch
Death brings. MATHUSALEAH
Despairing LAMECH
Rest NOAH
Actually according to Lapid Rabbi Griffin, the Lord appears as a horse at the crossing of the Red Sea. (Lapid are basically the Hasidic form of Messianic.)
Ah Judaism, you can hate God but you can't love 💗 Jesus!
I do not know why Christians (especially those with a Jewish background) contort themselves to understand Jesus, with passages, when the answer is spelled out in the New Testament with Deuteronomy 18, which both Jewish and Christian eschatology totally ignore.
When it comes to Jesus, just as today, Jesus did not fit the Jewish interpretation derived from the prophets.
Jesus adopted the promise of the Torah, Deuteronomy 18, stating that G-d would send a prophet, like Moses, and put His Words, in the person’s mouth.
Islam attempts to claim this promise as relating to Muhammad, but ignorant of the writings and only knowing the Athanasian Trinity interpretation, does not realize that endorsing Jesus, who claimed this role, already, is a little bizarre.
Judaism tries to claim that it is referencing Joshua, missing the end of the Torah, claiming there has not been a prophet, like Moses.
Deuteronomy 34:9-12:
וִיהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ בִּן־נ֗וּן מָלֵא֙ ר֣וּחַ חׇכְמָ֔ה כִּֽי־סָמַ֥ךְ מֹשֶׁ֛ה אֶת־יָדָ֖יו עָלָ֑יו וַיִּשְׁמְע֨וּ אֵלָ֤יו בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֔וּ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃
Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands upon him; and the Israelites heeded him, doing as יהוה had commanded Moses.
וְלֹא־קָ֨ם נָבִ֥יא ע֛וֹד בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל כְּמֹשֶׁ֑ה אֲשֶׁר֙ יְדָע֣וֹ יְהֹוָ֔ה פָּנִ֖ים אֶל־פָּנִֽים׃
Never again did there arise in Israel a prophet like Moses-whom יהוה singled out, face to face,
לְכׇל־הָ֨אֹתֹ֜ת וְהַמּוֹפְתִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר שְׁלָחוֹ֙ יְהֹוָ֔ה לַעֲשׂ֖וֹת בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם לְפַרְעֹ֥ה וּלְכׇל־עֲבָדָ֖יו וּלְכׇל־אַרְצֽוֹ׃
for the various signs and portents that יהוה sent him to display in the land of Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his courtiers and his whole country,
וּלְכֹל֙ הַיָּ֣ד הַחֲזָקָ֔ה וּלְכֹ֖ל הַמּוֹרָ֣א הַגָּד֑וֹל אֲשֶׁר֙ עָשָׂ֣ה מֹשֶׁ֔ה לְעֵינֵ֖י כׇּל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
and for all the great might and awesome power that Moses displayed before all Israel.
Now, here is what is, actually, written in the New Testament …
First, Jesus had a G-d:
[John 20:17] Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’
Here is the interpretation of Jesus and the followers, based off of Deuteronomy 18 (also included):
[John 5:46] “For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me.”
[Deuteronomy 18:18] “I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.”
[John 12:49-50] For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.
[John 14:10] Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.
[spelled our, literally]
[Acts 3:22] “For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
Unfortunately, the translation of the Greek word “autos” was assigned a masculine gender, but here is what John 1:1-15 states, substituting the pronoun with the noun “logos” (word).
[John 1:1-15] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He (the Word) was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him (the Word), and without Him (the Word) nothing was made that was made. In Him (the Word) was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. He (the Word) was in the world, and the world was made through Him (the Word), and the world did not know Him (the Word). He (the Word) came to His (the Word’s) own, and His (the Word’s) own did not receive Him (the Word’s) . But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ ”
Is this a new revelation? No!.
If G-d used His Words to create, then the Word existed before creation and G-d’s Words came to the prophets.
So the Word became flesh (fulfilling the promise of Deuteronomy 18, in the Torah), according to Jesus and his followers.
That is the identity used by Jesus and his followers to claim he was anointed with G-d’s Words (making the two existing together. The man and G-d’s Words coming out of his mouth … sadly where poor exegesis led to the fallacy of the trinity interpretation).
So, factually, yes … Jesus did not fit the Jewish interpretation and rationalization of the Messiah.
Jesus became more like Jacob’s son Joseph, a leader figure of gentiles, as Judaism still waits for an individual to accomplish what, quite frankly, only G-d could accomplish, on a global scale (olam haba).
Since Jesus does not meet Jewish expectations, history got the Toledot Yeshu and the more civilized interpretation of a failed revolutionary (biased to their, not Jesus’s, interpretation of the Messiah).
As for how we got the "Trinity" (beyond neoplatonism influence of later church fathers, pre-Nicaea)
People started questioning the relationship between Jesus and G-d.
[Philippians 2:5-11] Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Was Jesus homoiousios (ὁμοιούσιος), meaning “of a similar substance,” or was Jesus homoousios (ὁμοούσιος), meaning “of the same substance”. All based on G-d’s Words [logos] coming out of the Jesus' mouth.
Obviously, if G-d was putting His Words in Jesus' mouth, it would be closer to homoousios (not even same substance, but The Substance).
However, this became embellished to a Trinity interpretation. Totally ignoring numerous passages of Jesus having a G-d (not being G-d).
One would think that the words "mashiach" and "christos" would be self-explanatory. "Annointed" (as Holy Spirit descending like a dove when Jesus was baptized by John).
When you understand this, you will figure out the difference between the vicarious atonement ideology and G-d rewarding His Anointed by resurrecting him as a guide that despite the consequences, Jesus taught us how not to sin and G-d recognizes this, as shown with G-d resurrecting Jesus (numerous verses state this, in the New Testament).
Also, when the Jewish elite sought to kill Jesus, as Moses killed his "enemies", Jesus points out that Abraham did not teach this (nor did Jacob, when disowning Simeon and Levi, when they tricked Shechem to get his men circumcised and slaughtered them, while they were healing from the circumcision).
Read Numbers 25 to see into how Moses never changed from the time he killed the Egyptian to claiming HaShem praised Phinehas for ramming a spear through Zimri and Cozbi (after Moses killed many of his own).
Moses walked with G-d, fell from grace (rock of Meribah, along with above mentioned killing ... Noachide laws only killed men for killing someone ... what did the 603 mitzvot [beyond the 10 Commandments kept in the Ark of the Covenant, as the covenant, when Solomon had it opened]) state to do?
So Moses fell and was not allowed to enter the Promised Land.
So did Moses "shine" or "grow horns", as he walked with G-d, fell from grace, as he was a murderer from the beginning and lied for his own gain (such as praising Phineas, taking the Lord's Name in vain, by claiming G-d endorsed the action) and fell from grace (denied entry into the Promised Land)?
Would Moses teach to turn the other cheek?
Believing that you are Jewish while you are not is basically the same problem that (the 'apostle') Paul had. Polos was a Hellenistic man from Turkey who claimed to have witnessed the dead Jesus in a vision. He then elevated Jesus to a semi-god status and appointed him as a mediator between God en human kind. He then changed his name into a more Jewish sounding one.
I do not have a problem with the fact that Christians are presenting themselves as Jewish as every Jew already knows who's Jewish and who's not. And God Himself knows who's Jewish or not. But if you are pretending to be someone you are not, you are obviously lying. And you have to account for that one day. And that IS a problem.
Why don't the real Jewish people explain what the Tanach says compared to the Old Testament & why they choose what church writers wrote instead of Hashem? Foreshadowing of anyone, much less Jesus, is not what Moses was teaching. Y'all know scripture has been changed to reflect God as man, but He never said He'd come in the flesh. I read the Tanach & Chumash in Hebrew & it's not anything like the Old Testament - in any of the 8 different versions I've read over 20 yrs. Please keep Jewish people Jewish & stop spreading lies about what Hashem said - with all due respect.
Do you have any fear of God ?
Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Salvation is of the Jews. Jesu was crucified and died for the sins of the world. Jesus blood was shed for the forgiveness of sin.
Jesus was a man and the Son of God. He hadn't been born in old testament times.
John 8:57 Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?”
58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”
@@HeIsLove4Real Christ's reference to Abraham is to affirm his (Christ's) pre-eminence,
not pre-existence. The Jews had claimed that Abraham was their
father (vs. 39) and so Christ establishes his pre-eminence in the
divine purpose by stating that before Abraham was, "I am". He did
not say "before Abraham was, I was" as it is frequently misread. But
the Jews, like modern-day trinitarians, misunderstood Jesus. He was
not claiming to be literally older in years than Abraham. This is indicated by his prior remark: "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my
day: and he saw it, and was glad." (vs. 56). Abraham, to whom the
gospel was preached (Gal. 3:8), "saw" the day of Christ through
the eye of faith. Christ was "foreordained before the foundation of
the world, but manifest in these last times". (1 Pet. 1:20). He was
foreordained in the divine purpose, but not formed. Similarly in the
divine purpose he was the "Lamb slain from the foundation of the
world" (Rev. 13:8) but literally he was not slain until his crucifixion
in the time of Pilate.
Amen. Meshiach is coming back
i feel sorry for jews getting lost inthe chrestianos christianos religion and not keeping the way of Fallowing Yehoshua but run to another religion.
Jesus is the way to the Father (John 14:6).
If there's a 👑 there's a 🧔
How would you explain the trinity of the Lord God as the bible talk of God say let us yet he is one for me it is that I’m a son and father and a brother so I’m one but different to names by brother son and father I’m the same being yet to others I’m more than one person yet God is actually three persons in one they are the same God
God appeared as man is not something new, it has existed in ancient myths & legends. Christianity just copied & pasted into their faith & made it official in Nicean Council in 325 CE. 😮
Wrong, Yehovah appeared as a man to Abraham 2000 years before He manifested in flesh as Yehoshua (Yehovah-saviour), more than three centuries before the council of Nicea...
You should repent for your wickedness in deceiving YHVH’s children and especially those from a Jewish background into believing these wicked unrighteous lies. The religious elite of the Orthodox Church are little different from the Pharisees of Yeshua’s day.
God never appeared as a human. Messengers of God are not God.
If God is outside of space and time how can he interact with mankind without his spirit and son who is it that walks and talks with men in scripture we know that he was a man and that he was God
Jesus was NOT God.

Matthew 11:27 ESV / 3 helpful votes
All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
Matthew 11:25-27
At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
The scriptures you mentioned are actually proving the deity of Jesus as God. John 10:30, I and my Father are one. The Jews tried to stone him for claiming to be God. John 8:58, Jesus said unto them verily, verily, I say unto you before Abraham was I am. Again Jesus claimed pre-existence and he claimed to be Yahweh The Great I Am. Jews again tried to stone him for claiming to be God. John 1:1, In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Here John identifies and affirms the Word (Jesus) is God. John 20:28, And Thomas answered and said unto him, my Lord and my God. Thomas declared Jesus as Lord and God. Jesus' deity is recognized throughout the Bible including the New testament. Paul waiting for the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, Titus 2:13. Paul and John declare Jesus created the universe, John 1:3, All things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made. Colossians 1: 16-17, For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. God the Father referred to Jesus as God Hebrews 1:8, But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Which is a quote from Psalm 45:6. Jesus claimed to be God over and over applying names and attributes of God himself. Jesus made it clear he was God incarnate proving it by his words, his miracles and by his resurrection from the dead. If Jesus was only a mere man his death would only be sufficient to pay for his sins alone. Jesus is God in the flesh, his sacrifice was infinite and holy able to pay for the sins of the entire world. More scriptures proving Jesus deity. Revelation 1:7, Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Revelation 2:8, And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; first and the last is a title of God, which was dead and is alive referring to Jesus Christ meaning Jesus Christ is God. 1 Corinthians 10:4, And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drink of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. 1 Peter 5:4, And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. Jesus repeatedly placed himself in the place of Yahweh by doing and saying these things that only God has a right to do or say. Salvation only works if Jesus is God. Revelation 1:8, Here's Jesus speaking, I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. These titles are God's titles. Read the Rich Young Ruler in Luke chapter 18, here's the summary; Jesus claims only God is good, then Jesus claims to be good, Jesus claims to be God. There is only one God, existing in three persons there is subordination within the godhead the Holy Spirit is subordinate to the Father and the Son, the Son is subordinate to the Father, this does not deny the deity of any person of the godhead. The members of the godhead have different tasks the Father is the ultimate source or cause of the universe, the Son is the person through whom the Father does maintenance of the universe, divine revelation and salvation. The Holy Spirit is through whom the Father does creation and maintenance of the universe, divine revelation, salvation and Jesus' works. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are not parts of God, each of them is God. It's hard for our finite minds to understand an infinite God.
EXACTLY!
Yikes 2 years ago I set out "proving" Jesus was God.

Clement Greeted by Paul in Philippians 4:3
Indeed, true companion, I ask you also, help these women who have shared my struggle in the cause of the gospel, alongside ✔️Clement as well as the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

Clement, trained by Peter, had Apostolic procession and ran 1st church Rome from
60-90AD till Martyred.
Here's Clement:
1 Clement 59:4.
"Let all the Gentiles know that
👉Thou art the God alone, and

Irenaeus~Against Heresies 3.6.4(180-200AD)
Wherefore I do also call upon
thee,👉 Lord God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob and Israel, who art the
🤴🏻Father of our lord Jesus Christ,
👨🏻🦳the God who, through the abundance of
Thy mercy, hast had a favour towards us,
that we should know Thee,
Who hast made heaven and earth,
who rulest over all, who art the
👉"only and the true God"👈 above whom
there is none other God; Grant, by our
🤴🏻Lord Jesus Christ,
the governing power of the Holy Spirit;
give to every reader of this book to know
Thee, that 👨🏻🦳Thou art God alone,
to be strengthened in Thee,
And to "avoid every heretical, and godless,
and impious doctrine".
Justin martyr First Apology 61
[T]here is pronounced over him who chooses to be born again, and has repented of his sins, the name of 👉God the Father and Lord of the universe; he who leads to the laver the person that is to be washed calling him by this name alone, For no one can utter the name
of the👨🏻🦳 ineffable God…
And in the name of 🤴🏻Jesus Christ, who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, and in the name of the Holy Ghost, who through the prophets foretold all things about Jesus, he who is illuminated is washed. [10]
Martyrdom of Ignatius 2 (140A.D.)
Thou art in error when thou callest the daemons of the nations gods. For there is but 👨🏻🦳One God, who made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that are in them; and 🤴🏻One Jesus Christ,
🫴the only-begotten Son of God,
whose kingdom may I enjoy.
210AD TERTULLIAN A HERMOGENES.
CHAP. IIIAN ARGUMENT OF HERMOGENES
(🫨210A.D. time when 👉Jesus didn't exist?)
Because God is in like manner a Father, and He is also a Judge; but He has not always been Father and Judge, merely on the ground of His having always been God.
For He could not have been the Father previous to the Son, nor a Judge previous to sin.
There was, however, a time when 👉neither
sin existed with Him,👉nor the Son;🤴
the former of which was to constitute the Lord a Judge, and the 🫴latter a Father.👈
In this way He was not Lord previous to those things of which He was to be the Lord.
But He was only to become Lord at some future time: just as He became
👉the "Father by the Son"👈, and a "Judge by sin", so also did He become Lord by means of those things which He had made, in order that they might serve Him. Do I seem to you to be weaving arguments Hermogenes?
210AD TERTULLIAN A HERMOGENES.
CHAP. III AN ARGUMENT OF HERMOGENES
Revelation 3:12
The one who conquers,
I will make him a pillar in the temple of
👉"My God". Never shall he go out of it,
and I will write on him the name of
👉"My God", and the name of the city of
👉 "My God", the new Jerusalem,
which comes down from
👉 "My God" out of heaven, and
🤴🏻My New Name".

Matthew 19:28
Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the 👸"Son Of Man👈 will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesus Son-Of-Man, Standing NEXT to God
Acts 7:5 Stephen looked up to heaven & saw the "Glory of God,
and 🤴🏻"Jesus standing"
at the right hand of
👨🏻🦳God.
56 “Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and
🤴🏻"The Son of Man,
Standing at the right hand 👨🏻🦳of God.”
Here's where we find Jesus in the O.T.
Daniel 7:9-14
“As I looked, “thrones were set in place,
and the👨🏻🦳 "Ancient of Days" took his seat
His clothing was as white as snow;
the hair of his head was white like wool.
His throne was flaming with fire,
and its wheels were all ablaze.
10. A river of fire was flowing, coming
out from before him.
Thousands upon thousands attended him;
ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened.
13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a
🤴"Son of Man",coming with the clouds of heaven. 🫴He approached the
👨🏻🦳 "Ancient of Days" and was led into his presence.
14 🤴🏻He was given Authority, glory and sovereign power; All Nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an Everlasting Dominion that will not pass away, and His Kingdom is one that will never be destroyed
Even at the END of the 2nd Century, The ONLY GOD? Was ALWAYS the Father.
ALL 9NT Authors christology of Jesus, was & is uncontested that Jesus has a God.
I've also provided the most popular theologians of the first and second century and they also confirmed that the one God was always the father.
Something I never learned on a church pew was?? the Memoir "nicknamed"
The Gospel of John?
Is "ANONYMOUS MEMOIR"!!
(See chapter 20+21, an unnamed collection of scribes simply identified as "we"🙄)
However Christians reframe the whole biblical narrative watch:
-G💡D, "did not" come down AND get "tempted",
from a creature "he made",
with everything he ALREADY OWNS?
-God doesn't grow in favor, "with God".
-God doesn't "anoint" God.
-😬ISAIAH 53 falls flat with the TRINITY...
According to Isaiah chapter 53?
GOD Rewards Yeshua, The
🫱Suffering-Son-of-Man Servant, With Spoils.
Different individual than GOD.
🤴🏻Luke brags that Jesus will sit on his great grandfather King David's throne!
"This" repackaged Constantine narrative?
Makes "King David" ,The Great Grandfather
of God Almighty?!?
😣Take it in...
US Gentiles will be "JUDGED"...
For dividing the holy jealous God of Israel into fractions😬
Gentiles had no business in "reframing" the biblical narrative", with ZERO framework or Apostolic procession.
Only 2% of people in Israel even believe in the Messiah!
GENTILES are "hiding/masking Israel's Messiah-Son-of-Man,
and sadly Islam is gaining all of our MONOTHEISTIC Jewish converts.😥
@@Biblehasaleftsidealso
Jesus is God incarnate,.and the Trinity wasn't made up. Don't rely on non canonical texts to draw your conclusions. The one and only authority is the Word of God alone. Please study more.
If Jesus were just a man and only God's Son and not God, then He had a sin nature and was not perfect. In that case, His death and resurrection would have no power to save anyone.
Philippians 2:5-7
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
1 Timothy 3:16
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
The Godhead is Father, Son and Holy Spirit all are one and 3 separate persons. This is clearly taught in Scripture. Gentiles didn't "make it up."
The term Godhead is found three times in the King James Version: Acts 17:29; Romans 1:20; and Colossians 2:9. In each of the three verses, a slightly different Greek word is used, but the definition of each is the same: “deity” or “divine nature.” The word Godhead is used to refer to God’s essential nature.
In Acts 17, Paul is speaking on Mars Hill to the philosophers of Athens. As he argues against idolatry, Paul says, “Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device” (Acts 17:29, KJV). Here, the word Godhead is the translation of the Greek theion, a word used by the Greeks to denote “God” in general, with no reference to a particular deity. Paul, speaking to Greeks, used the term in reference to the only true God.
In Romans 1, Paul begins to make the case that all humanity stands guilty before God. In verse 20 he says, “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” Here, Godhead is theiotés. Paul’s argument is that all of creation virtually shouts the existence of God; we can “clearly” see God’s eternal power, as well as His “Godhead” in what He has made. “The heavens declare the glory of God; / the skies proclaim the work of his hands” (Psalm 19:1). The natural world makes manifest the divine nature of God.
Colossians 2:9 is one of the clearest statements of the deity of Christ anywhere in the Bible: “In him [Christ] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” The word for “Godhead” here is theotés. According to this verse, Jesus Christ is God Incarnate. He embodies all (“the fullness”) of God. This truth aligns perfectly with Colossians 1:19, “God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him [Christ].”
Because the Godhead dwells bodily in Christ, Jesus could rightly claim that He and the Father are “one” (John 10:30). Because the fullness of God’s divine essence is present in the Son of God, Jesus could say to Philip, “Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father” (John 14:9).
The Godhead is the essence of the Divine Being; the Godhead is the one and only Deity. Jesus, the incarnate Godhead, entered our world and showed us exactly who God is: “No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known” (John 1:18; Hebrews 1:3).
More evidence in God's Word for The Trinity:
There is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5).
2) The Trinity consists of three Persons (Genesis 1:1, 26; 3:22; 11:7; Isaiah 6:8, 48:16, 61:1; Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). In Genesis 1:1, the Hebrew plural noun "Elohim" is used. In Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7 and Isaiah 6:8, the plural pronoun for “us” is used. The word "Elohim" and the pronoun “us” are plural forms, definitely referring in the Hebrew language to more than two. While this is not an explicit argument for the Trinity, it does denote the aspect of plurality in God. The Hebrew word for "God," "Elohim," definitely allows for the Trinity.
In Isaiah 48:16 and 61:1, the Son is speaking while making reference to the Father and the Holy Spirit. Compare Isaiah 61:1 to Luke 4:14-19 to see that it is the Son speaking. Matthew 3:16-17 describes the event of Jesus’ baptism. Seen in this passage is God the Holy Spirit descending on God the Son while God the Father proclaims His pleasure in the Son. Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 are other examples of passages that present three distinct Persons in the Trinity.
3) The members of the Trinity are distinguished one from another in various passages. In the Old Testament, “LORD” is distinguished from “Lord” (Genesis 19:24; Hosea 1:4). The LORD has a Son (Psalm 2:7, 12; Proverbs 30:2-4). The Spirit is distinguished from the “LORD” (Numbers 27:18) and from “God” (Psalm 51:10-12). God the Son is distinguished from God the Father (Psalm 45:6-7; Hebrews 1:8-9). In the New Testament, Jesus speaks to the Father about sending a Helper, the Holy Spirit (John 14:16-17). This shows that Jesus did not consider Himself to be the Father or the Holy Spirit. Consider also the other instances when Jesus speaks to the Father. Was He speaking to Himself? No. He spoke to another Person in the Trinity-the Father.
4) Each member of the Trinity is God. The Father is God (John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2). The Son is God (John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Colossians 2:9; Hebrews 1:8; 1 John 5:20). The Holy Spirit is God (Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16).
@Biblehasaleftsidealso
why do you believe man's word over God's Word.
The comment above yours shows you a lot of places in God's Word where Jesus is God. Jesus claimed to be God and the Jews tried to kill Him for it. They knew exactly what He was claiming.
Genesis 1:26 KJV 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.
Please ask God for Him to allow you to find the truth if you really want to know it.
@@Biblehasaleftsidealso The Bible is so transparent and replete that Jesus is God. Keep studying and ask the Lord to show you. But scripture is so blatant that Jesus is God Almighty.
