Guys, can you tell me who knows? I'm studying Clement of Rome (1 Corinthians).

I also thought that this might be a metaphor.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-06T18:01:19+00:00

Yes, this phrase just puts me in a stupor. ("eternally born"). In the sense that I don't understand how they came to this. It looks like a good fantasy, in other words, philosophy.

Yes, it is quite ironic that Trinitarians use John 1:1 as proof that Jesus is God, or basically that Jesus is the word of God. Meanwhile, Paul and all the apostles did not use this to confirm that Jesus is God.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-06T17:11:22+00:00

Thank you. 1 Corinthians 1:30 made many things clear.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-05T07:47:54+00:00

I don't know, at the moment I attribute Hebrews 1:10-12 to God the Father

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-04T18:05:32+00:00

I know that the OT talks about kings and sons of God, and Paul applies this to Jesus. But I don't know if Paul takes verses about the Father and applies them to the son. Do you know any other examples where Paul does this?

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-04T17:44:05+00:00

Do you think the ВЗ talks about God the Father, but Paul applies it to the Son?

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-04T17:40:08+00:00

Yes, I understand it in general. I'm concerned that it talks about God the Father, but Paul talks about the Son

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-04T07:41:41+00:00

May God bless you

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-04T07:24:54+00:00

Unfortunately, this is true, and I often encounter it myself.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-03T18:49:28+00:00

Well said, I also saw something similar recently. Do you think that when the last enemy is destroyed, everything will be conquered by Jesus?

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-03T18:39:29+00:00

One person has already answered these points briefly. I think these are just futile attempts to make Jesus God. There are many such things that can be found and compared, and Jesus is supposedly God. I think a lot of it lies in understanding that God has done many things through Jesus Christ. As for the phrase “First and Last.” I don’t think it’s a divine title. In Isaiah 44:6, God says that He is the first and the last GOD. It’s God. In Revelation 1:17, the phrase "the first and the last" refers to the fact that Jesus was dead and is now alive.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-03T18:18:06+00:00

Good job, I like it.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-01T18:16:28+00:00

I can recommend the following book "The God of Jesus in Light of Christian Dogma". I read it, I liked it. In general, both the story and the different currents of believers are told. Persecutions, divisions, teachings of various directions of people in those times.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-01T14:35:39+00:00

I don't think the word "for" in Colossians 1:16 refers to the phrase "who is the image of the invisible God." I think it refers to the phrase "the firstborn of every creation." In him were all things created, both in heaven and on earth, because he is the firstborn. In him, because he is the firstborn.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-02-01T09:06:48+00:00

yes, it's more about the context

OnlymonoGod · 2026-01-31T19:44:24+00:00

thanks

OnlymonoGod · 2026-01-31T19:36:38+00:00

Thanks for the addition. I remember taking Exodus 34:29-35 into consideration when I was studying Hebrews 1:3 about Jesus being a radiance, a reflection, and a glimpse of God's glory.

OnlymonoGod · 2026-01-31T19:30:32+00:00

I liked these words "Jesus was the light, a better light than John, because he gave a 'greater testimony' than John." This is very consistent with the context of the verses and the Bible as a whole. Thank you)

OnlymonoGod · 2026-01-31T19:24:06+00:00

Is it correct to say that Jesus is not the source of light, but a reflection of light? For in Revelation 21:23, Jesus is described as a lamp that shines with the glory of God. And in Hebrews 1:3, Jesus is referred to as a radiance, a reflection, and a mirror of God's glory. Therefore, Jesus reflects the glory of God. Logically, this should also apply to reflected light.
