The eternal son with the eternal Father The son was with the Father before he had humanity (incarnation). Heb.10:5 "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire but a body you prepared for me . The Me is the Son who was with the Father in heaven John 1:1-2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.Hewas in the beginning with God. John 17:5 Jesus prayed O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was. This glory was described in Matt 17:2-3 He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory , the glory as of the only begotten of the father I Jn. 1:2 and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us 1 John 5:11-12 and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life The son was sent by the Father Isa 48:16 "Come near to Me, hear this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, I was there. And now the Lord GOD and His Spirit have sent Me." The me is the Son sent by the Father and the Spirit John 6:38 Jesus states, "For I have come down fromheaven, not to do My own will, but the will of HIM WHO SENT ME." 1 Cor.15:47 " the first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second man is the Lordfrom heaven. Here Paul is showing who the Son is and the place the Son came from, above, heaven, he is the Lord. Jn.3:31" He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all." "I am the living bread which came down from heaven. Jn.7:29 " I am from him and he has sent me." Jn.8:42 "I proceeded forth and came from God, nor have I come of myself, but he sent me." It is the son that came from heaven. John 16:16,17, V.28 states, "I came forth from the Father and have come into the world, again I leave the world and go to the Father. The Father says the Son is God
Heb. 1:8 But to the Son He says: " Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your Kingdom. Heb. 1:12 Like a cloak You will fold them up, and they will be changed. But You are the same, and Your years will not fail." See Mal.3:6. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever- his nature does not change because he is God. When he became the Son of man he acquired a human nature that added to his deity. Paul explains Acts 17:31"He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead. He can do this fairly justly because he became human. Heb. 10:30-31 "The LORD will judge His people." Citing,Ps 135:14f F or the LORD will judge His people |
