The Book of Revelation is “the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him ” (1:1). From the very first verse we are told that Jesus is not God. God is differentiated from Jesus. The God of Jesus Christ gave Jesus Christ this revelation. In Revelation 1:5-6 Jesus Christ is “the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead , and the ruler of kings on earth.” Jesus “loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father …” The Father is Jesus Christ’s God in the Book of Revelation, just as other Scriptures testify many times (e.g., John 20:17, Rom. 15:6, 2 Cor. 1:3, 11:31, Eph 1:3, 17, 1 Pet. 1:3). Jesus told the Sardis church that their works were not perfect in the site of his God (3:2). Four times in one verse (3:12) Jesus referred to “ my God ”. This is the resurrected, glorified Jesus Christ speaking who is at the right hand of God. That Jesus Christ has a God. In other words, not only is Jesus Christ distin...

People have said that I’m part of a cult. They mean it, of course, in a derogatory sense. These same people that derogatorily accuse me of being part of a cult believe that God is somehow a combination of three persons in one essence. They also believe that one of those persons of the three-person god also has a human essence (or nature). So, this belief system that accuses me of being part of a cult has for their god three persons in one essence, but one person in two essences.   Three persons in one essence, but one person in two essences. But I’m the one, supposedly, who is part of a cult with a strange belief system. And they don’t notice that in their definition of who God is, they have eliminated the possibility that Jesus the Messiah (Christ) is a real human person. Otherwise their description of their god would be three persons with two essences (a divine essence and a human essence). Wait, check that. Their description of their god should be four ...

(Deuteronomy 6:4, 32:39, Mark 12:29, Isaiah 44:24, John 17:3. 1 Cor. 8:6, Gal. 4:6). The name of God in the Bible appears over 6800 times and is spelled with the four Hebrew consonants יהוה . Here is an example of what יהוה the God of the Bible says:   Deuteronomy 32:39 “See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god beside me.”   The Bible is also clear that the Lord Jesus Christ has a God. So, is the one God of the Bible, יהוה , who states that he alone is the only God – is He the Lord Jesus Christ’s God?   The only God, יהוה , must be, has to be, the Lord Jesus Christ’s God. So, the Lord Jesus Christ is not God.   Let me say that again. There is only one God, יהוה . The Lord Jesus Christ has a God. The one God ( יהוה ) is t...
