Yes, God is in Psalm 83:18. This is what I see, Kjw47. You are a sincere individual. You desire to know the truth and in John 7: 17 Jesus told us that if we are willing to do the will of God once we know it - God will reveal the truth to us. So I would appeal to God along those lines if I were you. I believe you will find the answers you seek if you come to God with a sincere heart.
On the matter of Adam. Who made Adam, Kjw47? Was he born of a woman or born of God? Who? If you say he was born of God then you see this is why Jesus was born of God yet called the second Adam. If you say he was born of a woman, who was his mother?
A question I have for you. When Thomas put his hands into Jesus wounds, he exclaimed, My Lord and My God. As Jesus was sinless how could Jesus not have corrected Thomas were this not the truth? Why did he say to him Blessed are they who have not seen and believed? You see, it is by Faith, that you believe, Kjw47. It is not of works but of faith. Abraham was justified by "faith" not by works.
What did Abraham say when he went up to sacrifice his son, the son of promise?
It is written: And Abraham said to his young men, Abide here with the ass, and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you. - Genesis 22: 5
Two things - he was obeying God and taking his son to the altar. Yet he tells his men, I and the boy are going up to worship - (pure worship is obedience and sacrifice) -
Now then, he knew he would return with the boy and told his men this. How did he know he would return with the boy - the son of promise? By faith. That is how he knew. That is how you are going to know too. You read the Word of God - and by Faith - you believe. Because God has given you a measure of faith and even though the size of a mustard seed. It is enough. Keep reading the Word of God until you are saved. By Faith you will receive what you are searching for kwj47. By faith.
I explained this to you I thought---Thomas was confused----- and a way bigger issue is that--Jesus while attending the synagogues his first 30 years was taught--YHWH(Jehovah) a single being mono God---this is what he would have refuted but did not, because its 100% fact--the Israelites were serving the true God--YHWH(Jehovah) a single being mono God. They rejected Jesus--so the new religion--serves YHWH(Jehovah) as God and accepts Jesus as the one sent by God--The Messiah.
Jesus, Paul, Peter, John all in agreement---The Father( Jehovah) is Jesus' God--John 20:17,Rev 3:12---2Cor 1:3,1Cor 8:6,1Cor 15:24-28---1Peter 1:3----Rev 1:6---- either these 4 are wrong or the trinity teachers are wrong--I choose to believe those 4.
????....why would Jesus object to being considered the only God?.....
Because he isn't God. I showed you why in the op
