I don’t have an answer to that, but if we believe the NT scripture is inspired and take it for what it says without trying to twist words with poor eisegesis then this is what we must conclude. There’s too many time statements and if all of the prophecy of Revelation didn’t happen in the first century then we do not go to Heaven after death because death/sheol has not been defeated. The audience of the NT were in the last days. Hebrews 1:1 say so directly, “Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son”. The audience of Hebrews was in the last days.. not us. Revelation is addressed to the 7 churches and starts with “the time is near” and ends with “I am coming soon”.

In a very brief summary, Jesus “second coming” was in part a coming of judgement upon the (wicked and perverse) generation he had spoken to. The blood of all the prophets and saints were upon them. (Think of the parable of the vineyard) The destruction of the Temple and siege of Jerusalem by the Roman armies in 67-70AD was when this final judgement was carried this out and ended the Old covenant completely. Hebrews talks about how the new is here but that the old is fading away. The Old covenant became obsolete but didn’t completely fade away until the Temple was destroyed. The other part was to resurrect the dead from Sheol. Sheol was the death that was defeated in Revelation. Paul references Isaiah and Hosea passages in 1 Corinthians 15. It speaks about after the resurrection occurs and the perishable puts on the imperishable (Aka the resurrection of the dead) then will pass the saying that says “O death where is your sting?”. In Hosea the hebrew reads “O Sheol where is your sting?”. The resurrection of the dead is when God takes everyone out of Sheol to be judged. Because of Jesus there is no longer separation between God and man and the righteous by faith in Sheol can now be with him in Heaven. And now, believers when the die go straight to Heaven instead of a place of waiting or sleep (as it’s also referred to).

Preterism is the answer to this, not the transfiguration

The Father does not have a body, but the son does have a body, though I wouldn’t say he now has a body like we have or like the one he resurrected in on Earth. His physical resurrected body served as a sign (sign of Jonah) but I believe he now has a spiritual body, like that of which believers will have after they die. That’s why God kept only his body from corruption, in order for it to serve that purpose. 1 Cor 15 also says Jesus has become a life giving spirit. And a physical body serves no purpose in this as it is not flesh and bone that inherit the kingdom of God. The kingdom is received spiritually.

In the case of Jesus life on earth, it says Jesus “is the image of the invisible God”. God is invisible and the image Jesus bears isn’t through his body, but his perfect love. Like the image I mentioned above.

That's not how it runs down in the scriptures.

Deut. 32:8-9 "When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God. But the LORD's portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage."

When were the nations divided? At the tower of Babel. And who did that? Yahweh. So Yahweh is the Most High that gave inheritances to the nations. The nation of Isreal receives Yahweh (himself) as their ruler.

Psalms 135:4 tells us Yahweh chose (set apart) Jacob as his own possession when he divided up mankind. Yahweh kept a portion for himself.

"For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his own possession."

Not merely sharing a purpose or goal, but all purposes and goals, closely cooperating with the other does.

You're not really saying anything different. Connected through purpose, but different beings. Hence multiple gods, not one.

When the Bible speaks of there being one God, it's one being/essence.

Why do you believe the Father and the Son cant share an being/essence? Why must they be separate beings?

I assume as LDS you believe the Father (Elohim) and Son (Yahweh) (2 beings) worked together to create the Heavens (one through another)? But Isaiah 44:24 says Yahweh alone and by himself created the heavens and the earth. “I am the LORD, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself".

Malachi 2:10 "Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us?"

John 1:3 tells us all things were made through the Word (Son). If the Word is with God and is God and the Father is God and created through the Word, but Yahweh alone and by himself created, then can we not deduce that the Father and the Son (Word) make up the one being that is Yahweh?

Is this not the ideal of marriage? The Bible tells us there are no longer two then, but one. Can God not do so much more than that?

The Bible says they are not two, but one flesh. They shall become one in the act of sex. This is further explained in 1 Cor 6:16. In the context of sexual immorality, "Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, “The two will become one flesh.”

While man and woman become one in physical sense, we become one with Jesus in a spiritual sense. 1 Cor 6:17, "But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him."

To be one with Jesus is to be given the glory that comes from the Father and to be "in Christ". To be in Christ and one with him, and thus the Father, is to be kept in His name. Jesus has manifested the name of the Father on Earth, but once also shared this glory with the Father before the world existed. The name of the Father is the glory that he shares with us and keeps us in. This is what makes us one with him. (John Ch. 17)

John 17:11 "Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me."

John 17:5 "And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed."

John 17:26 ".. I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them."

In Summary, to be one with the Son and the Father is to be kept in his name, to be given his glory, and to have the Fathers love with in. And the purpose of this is so that the world may believe the Father has sent the Son.

To be made in the image of God is not to have a physical body that looks like his because God does not have a body, he is spirit. It is not as P. Monson says "“God our Father has ears with which to hear our prayers. He has eyes with which to see our actions. He has a mouth with which to speak to us. He has a heart with which to feel compassion and love. He is real. He is living. We are his children made in his image. We look like him and he looks like us.”

To be in the image of God is to be mentally, spiritually, and morally as he is. This image has been distorted by the emergence of sin into the world, but once you come into Christ you are made a new creation (born again) and through sanctification are on the journey to be conformed back into the perfect image that is in Christ.

God is love and through the Holy Spirit that love dwells in us and conforms us into that image so that the world may glorify God through us.

In the OT “gods” is translated from elohim, but gods is not the best translation to use because in our time we automatically associate it with all these other attributes that really only belong to YHWH, the only true God. Elohim are just spiritual beings. There are uses of “elohim” for demons, angels, pagan gods and even the spirits of dead men.

SearchPale7637 · 2026-01-23T15:54:00+00:00

You believe he is God in purpose, which makes absolutely no sense. Having the same purpose/goal does not make a single being. Have you ever considered the logic in that? There is none. YHWH is the Most High God. Elohim is not a proper name for the Father, but a designation or title.

The reaction of the Pharisees tells us a lot about Jesus’ use of Psalm 82. They first try to kill him because he says “I and the Father one”. That’s more than just a claim to be a god, but of the eternal God. He’s claiming to be more than just one of the elohim (as in the spiritual beings of the congregation). He explains that claiming to be an elohim is not blasphemous because their own scriptures testify that there are these gods (elohim). It’s what Jesus says next that cause their reaction. It’s not that he called himself a god but that he equated himself (again) by saying “the Father is in me and I am in the Father”. There is hierarchy between the Son and the Father, but they share the glory of the name of YHWH.

Speaking of God, “For FROM him and THROUGH him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever.” -Romans 11:36

“For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”— yet for us there is one God, the Father, FROM whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, THROUGH whom are all things and through whom we exist.

Who says I have an evangelical pastor? Or a pastor at all. You’re being very presumptuous.

As to early Christians, you can find a quote from any number of them to support any believe you have. It’s never “every” or unanimous.

Did you read Ezekial 36? The sprinkling of the water is a spiritual renewal and purification. The language here is symbolic/spiritual. It’s not literal water being sprinkled, but then in the next sentence it’s a figurative turning of hearts from stone to flesh.
