I an 25 years old and I was a lukewarm Christian but i have decided to repent and turn my life completely to Jesus, as such I made a plan to study the entire Bible one chapter at a time. I don't know how long it will take but i want to know more of Jesus through his word. I am using Enduring word as a guide when I don't understand certain scriptures. Thank you for your great teachings Pastor Guzik. May God continue to bless you abundantly and may you continue to use your gift of teaching others the word of God. Greetings from Guyana 🇬🇾
I feel so sad that I only discovered David's online classes now in October all through lockdown i have wasted so much time. I thank the lord that I have found myself here, wonderful teachings so much clarity in your preaching. With love from South Africa.
Thank you Jesus. What a word! So insightful. May the Gospel be spread all over the world and accepted by all in Jesus Name. There’s nowhere better than being in and with God.

I listened to Pastor Paul LEBOUTILLIER at Calvary Chapel in the beginning, pastor Paul cited Pastor David Guzik's teachings many times in his talk. That is how I came to know pastor Guzik. One day I listened to Pastor Guzik's teaching, it blows my mind. Now I listen to both Pastor Paul and Pastor Guzik, also Pastor Chunk Smith. They are such a huge blessings in my life.
I thank God that I came across this teaching, thank you David for being faithful in teaching the word, you are changing many life’s, you will know the impact you have when you reach the other side and find multitude thanking you. Continue until your last breath. Blessings Mercy from Nairobi Kenya
Thank you Pastor Guzik. I love the book of John. I am very blessed by all you have said about John chapter 1. I like the story about the man who went to all the churches and still couldn't find a closeness with God. from June from Ireland
Pastor David, I’ve been looking for someone to just ‘preach the Word’. I follow your Thursday Q&A. This Sunday morning, Holy Spirit spoke, “What about David Guzik?” He was correct, just as He always is. I’m going to listen my way through John, then see where the Lord leads. Thank you, Pastor! God bless you!
Thank you pastor David Guzik. Your sermons always breathes a freshness in my spiritual soul. May God continue to use and bless you and make your ministry a blessing for many seekers of truth
John didn't start the Gospel from Jesus's birth, he started it from the very nature of Jesus pre-incarnation, He was the Word, the Logos, the very Person who made creations possible. What a brilliant book St. John wrote.
Pastor david. I have not read this yet. Am I'm so thankful i get to hear it how you read it!! Praise Jesus he let me find you❤❤❤ I understand chapter 1 fairly well but by chapter 2 John lost me 😂
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (January 3, Christmas 2), this was our Gospel of the Day, as it is every year on this Sunday (January 2-5). BTW, John 1:1-14 is usually read on Christmas Day.
Questions for me are. Does it matter if God is a triune God not? Are we not instructed to pray in Jesus name Amen? What relevance is this debate about a triune God or not? Pray to God in Jesus name Amen!. This pastor has so much good material out , even this video, and his messages are so much bigger than the concept of the Trinity.
The Word of Yahweh: Understanding John 1:1-18 Through Solid Supporting Scriptures in the Old and the New Testaments. The Word of Yahweh: Understanding Creation Through John 1 The Scriptures provide profound insight into the creation of the world and the role of Yahweh, the only true God. Isaiah 44:24 states, “This is what Yahweh says-your Redeemer and Creator: ‘I am Yahweh, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. Who was with me when I made the earth?’” This verse emphasizes that Yahweh alone is the Creator, having made all things by Himself, highlighting His sovereignty and uniqueness in the act of creation. The question arises: If Yahweh created the world, then what role does the Word, often associated with Christ, play in creation? Psalm 33:4, 6, 8-9 tells us, “For Yahweh’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. By Yahweh’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth. Let all the earth fear Yahweh. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.” This passage clearly demonstrates that it is through Yahweh’s Word that creation occurs, indicating the Word’s divine authority and active role in the process. Furthermore, Isaiah 55:11 declares, “It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.” This verse reinforces that the Word originates from Yahweh’s mouth, further establishing its divine authority and purpose. It emphasizes that Yahweh’s Word is not merely a statement but an active force that achieves His will. Now, does this mean that Jesus is the Word in the same sense? In Genesis 1:3, we see, “Then God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.” This creative command from Yahweh initiated the creation of light, showcasing His power and authority. The New Testament expands on this by identifying Jesus as the Word. In John 1:1, it states, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Here, we see the intimate relationship between God and the Word, yet it does not imply that Jesus is Yahweh Himself. Instead, it affirms Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God’s Word and promises. In John 17:3, Jesus clarifies His relationship with the Father: “And this is the way to have eternal life-to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.” This declaration highlights that Jesus identifies the Father as the only true God, further delineating the distinction between Yahweh and Jesus Christ. Jesus acknowledges the Father’s supreme authority and does not equate Himself with Yahweh. Considering these verses together, we can clearly see the distinction between Yahweh and Jesus Christ. While Jesus is indeed central to understanding God’s revelation and serves as the Messiah sent by Yahweh, He is not equated with Yahweh Himself. This understanding is vital for a correct interpretation of Scripture. Additionally, the Gospel of John provides insight into the role of Jesus as the Word made flesh. John 1:14 states, “And the Word became flesh and lived among us. We have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s one and only son, full of grace and truth.” This verse emphasizes that Jesus embodies the fullness of God’s revelation, showcasing God’s character and will to humanity while still being distinct from the Father. To summarize, the creation narrative attributes the power and authority of creation to Yahweh alone. Jesus Christ is the Messiah who reveals the Father to humanity, fulfilling the prophecies and promises of Yahweh but remains distinct from Him. Understanding this relationship is crucial for accurately interpreting Scripture and grasping the nature of God as presented in the Bible. In conclusion, while Jesus Christ plays a vital role in God’s plan for salvation and revelation, He does so as the Son of God and the promised Messiah, not as Yahweh or a separate deity. This understanding aligns with the teachings of both the Old and New Testaments, emphasizing the unity and singularity of Yahweh as the only true God. As believers, it is essential to recognize and honor this distinction to maintain the integrity of our faith in Yahweh, the only true God our Heavenly Father, and His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Is the Luke series on TH-cam? I listened to the whole thing on CC Santa Barbara app years ago - I want to send the Luke Playlist to a friend if you have it. Ty
How about the verses that tells that God is only one and it is the Father And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. John 17:3 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. 1 Corinthians 8:6 Maybe we are wrong in interpreting John 1:1 or there is an error in the translation of that verse? Perhaps the purpose of the gospel of John is to persuade the reader that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, not God himself or God also.
Here's a passage to consider...John 10:30-33... 30 I and My Father are one.” 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?” 33 The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.” The Jews that were there understood exactly what Jesus was saying...that He was making Himself out to be God. Jesus did not try to correct them, for they understood exactly what He was saying. Thanks for sharing, hope this helps. Blessings.
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord I think the Jews misinterpreted Jesus. Because we can read at the proceeding verses, Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? John 10:34-36 The Jews exaggerated Jesus claims of being the Son of the only true God (John 17:3, 3:16). Take a look on it, Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:18 At John chap. 10 Jesus claimed to be the Son of God the Jews interprets it as claiming to be a God Himself. But in John chap. 5 Jesus claimed God to be His Father and the Jews interprets it as claiming to be equal with God. You see the difference? And did Jesus really broke the Sabbath? Even before He was crucified? I don't think so, if then He must be accounted as sinner! Accusation is not always true!
John 1:1 Does not tell us who the word is. In John 1:3 We learn that all things were made through HIM. In John 1:18 we read “No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made (HIM) known. Notice how Jesus has made HIM known, who is HIM ? The word = HIM And if you can bear to hear it HIM is the Holy Spirit The WORD of God. If you read John 1 :1-18 And replace HIM with THE HOLY SPIRIT/WORD You will understand that THE WORD is the HOLY SPIRIT which is the word of God… Those with ears let them hear. Those with eyes to see Let them see.
Apostle Paul never said Jessus was the word nor he said Jessus was God ,but he said in 1COR CH 8 V5,even man can be God.John ch17 kill one In three God.,verse 3 ,26.
Paul was after John the Baptist, he was called John the Baptist HE BAPTIZED JESUS before all those people and Jesus made him. He said it's part of being born again.
The true Light is not Jesus, it is the Holy Spirit of God, the world did not know him. John the Baptist introduced us to the Holy Spirit, and Jesus said we must be Born of him.
Here are some verses for you to consider. 1 John 1:6-13 tells us...the following passage speaks of Jesus... 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. 11 He came to His [c]own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. I hope that this helps. Blessings!
John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. John 10:16 And other sheep ( The 144,000 ) I have, ( Jesus Christ, within the spirit of truth ) which are not of this fold: ( The wise virgins, of the 144,000 ) them also I must bring, ( Relevant to the judgment, ) and they shall hear my voice; ( Within The Spirit Of Truth, ) and there shall be one fold, ( The 144,000 as the church ) and one shepherd.( The Spirit Of Truth. )
@@edwardlongfellow5819 Yes, I understand. Every so-called Trinity proof text that I can think of has either been mistranslated, or it can be shown that it does not mean what Trinitarians claim that it means. (Compare John 10:30 with John 17:11 & 21, for example)
The ecclesia (not churches) means called out ones. As in “COME OUT OF HER (religion) MY PEOPLE” JESUS ecclesia is spiritual we as believers are the spiritual stones. We are HIS BODY HE IS MY HEAD. GOD dwells not in churches made with hands.
Did you know that in John 1:1-3, there are different Greek words for both Gods mentioned? The Word, Jesus, (Λόγος or Logos), was with God (Θεόν, or Theon). The Word was God (Θεὸς, or Theos). He, Jesus, was in the beginning with God (Θεόν, Theon). Even though these are different cases of the same word, they are nevertheless differentiated. Satan was also called θεὸς, or Theos at 2 Corinthians 4:4. Is Satan also God? Don’t know Greek? Neither do I. Let’s break this down a little further shall we? In the beginning was the word (Jesus, Son of God), and the word (Jesus, Son of God) was with God (Almighty God, God the Father), and the word (Jesus, Son of God) was God (Almighty God, God the Father)? No matter how you put it, it doesn’t make sense!! What does make sense is that Jesus, being in the beginning with God (Genesis 1:26, John 1:1), in fact being God’s very first creation (Colossians 1:15, Proverbs 8:22, Revelation 3:14), actually calls God his God and worships God the Father. (Revelation 3:12, John 20:17)
Thank you for your comment! I think we're mostly in agreement, there may just be a misunderstanding about terms or titles. Here are a few key Bible verses that emphasize the important, clear distinction between the Son and the Father: [#1] John 1:1-2: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.” This highlights the relationship between the Father and the Son (the Word). [#2] John 14:28: Jesus says, “The Father is greater than I.” This statement clearly indicates a *distinction in their roles and nature.* [#3] Matthew 26:39: In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prays, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” This shows Jesus *addressing the Father as a separate person.* [#4] John 10:30: Jesus says, “I and the Father are one,” which speaks to their unity but does not imply they are the same person. Meaning, Jesus *does not say "I am the Father," He instead distinguishes Himself at distinct* from the Father, while being united and in union with Him (in the Trinity). [#5] John 17:20-21: In His prayer, Jesus expresses a desire for believers to be one, just as He and the Father are one, indicating a relationship of unity among distinct persons. These verses contribute to the understanding of the distinct persons of the Father and the Son - the Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Father, neither the Son nor Father are the Holy Spirit, but all 3 are coequally God, united in the Trinity. -Enduring Word Team
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord i get what youre saying i guess the scripture that came to me was when John said i and the Father are One but we are also one with Christ yet we are not Christ himself but his body so i guess it makes sense
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord do you think its possible for the Holy Ghost and Jesus to be on the Earth at the same time or did one have to die for the other to be present?
'God the Son'? excuse me but that is NOT a bible expression!. 'God the Father' YES! 30 times! ' God the Son' 0 times!, 'God the Holy Spirit' 0 times!. How can the 'Word' be God himself if a. He was "with God" & since the word became VISIBLE how can he be 'God' if verse 18 states "No one has seen GOD at any time"? Also John recorded the 'word' saying "I am ascending to MY GOD"? John 20:17. Thus many scholars realise John used 'God' to describe the 'divine nature' of the son "made in God's image" rather than Almighty God Himself, whom Jesus worshiped and prayed to while on earth & will yet be "subject to God" ( 1 Cor 15:28)
Hello, thank you for your comment and concern. We're asking people to please pray for the Enduring Word ministry, as we've had a lot of people distracting the resources of our team with pedantry, assumptive conjecture, and sometimes vicious or irrelevant issues. Not sure if it's a mild form of spiritual warfare, or just part of what happens when a completely free resource is open to very public consumption, critique, and ridicule. But at a time when the Bride of Christ seems to be fracturing ever further, your continued prayers for God's Word to be heard and served in spirit and truth would be very much appreciated. Thank you and God bless!

The king James Bible reads that but as you said no vowels or punctuation in the beginning there was God and the word was a god is how it is supposed to read Jesus is the Son of God, my people perish from lack of knowledge .
I have listened to your history videos and have learned a lot. No disrespect however, Your doctrines are the same as all religions doctrines and teachings. The trinity is not in the Bible and we are warned about adding to the scriptures or taking away. 1)GOD IS SPIRIT Spirits can not die even JESUS tell us that about angels. 2)where in the Bible does it tell us the Holy Spirit is JESUS father? After all JESUS was conceived by the Holy Spirit. No? The scriptures clearly tell us the Holy Spirit is the power of GOD not a third second first whatever person. 3) Jesus always said “I CAME FROM ABOVE” “I CAME FROM THE FATHER” “MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I” there are tons of scriptures that totally destroy the false trinity doctrine.
Hi Pepe, thanks for writing. Let me respond to your comments. All religious doctrines are not the same. A quick comparison of Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism, and Christianity will reveal that those religious belief systems are very different. The teaching of the Trinity is brought to us in the Bible. In Exodus 3:13-15, we see God naming himself as "I Am". 13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?” 14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ” 15 Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’ In John 8:54-59, Jesus sued that same name, "I Am", to describe himself. The Jews who heard him say that knew that he was ascribing deity to Himself, and they tried to kill him Jesus did not try to correct them (in case they misunderstood him). John 8:54-59 54 Jesus answered, “If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is [o]your God. 55 Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I say, ‘I do not know Him,’ I shall be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.” 57 Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.” 59 Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going[p] through the midst of them, and so passed by. Jesus ascribed deity to Himself, apart from the Father. So far, we God the Father, and God the Son. In Acts 5:1-4, we see Peter equating lying to the Holy Spirit as "lying to God". 5 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. 2 And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God.” There we see the Bible describing the Holy Spirit as God. Thus we see the Biblical doctrine of the Trinity. You are correct that God is Spirit, but a spirit can put on flesh. We see demons (spirits) inhabiting people and even swine. The body of Jesus died, but was raised to life, a glorified body. Regarding Jesus as being subservient to the Father, that is correct, but it doesn't take away the divinity of Jesus. 1 Corinthians 11:3 tells us... 3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Men and women are of equal value and worth before God, and yet there is a hierarchy of responsibility. The same is true of God the Father and God the Son. Jesus' submission to the Father doesn't take away his deity. I hope that this helps.
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord Good morning, David nothing you sent me here proves what i consider the false trinity doctrine. See I believe JESUS WORDS and HE tells me this…… John 5:37 The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form. So who did the patriarchs like Moses Abraham etc...in the old testament seen and heard? JESUS or angels! Is always been JESUS from the book of Genesis to revelation is ALL JESUS. Even Paul tell us it was JESUS CHRIST the GOD of the old testament…… I Corinthians 10:1 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud, and that they all passed through the sea. 2They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3They all ate the same spiritual food 4and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST next we are also told that ONLY JESUS has ascended and descended from heaven. right/ John 3:13 No one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven. So who do you think is spoken about here in the old testament if not JESUS….. Proverbs 30:4 Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and WHAT IS HIS SON NAME, if you know? Lastly does it not make you pause when you DO NOT hear any of the apostles EVER giving reverence to the holy spirit but only to GOD THE FATHER and HIS SON JESUS CHRIST? why is it? Is because the Apostles, like myself KNEW what the holy spirit is. We are told what the holy spirit is in our bibles. Here is one very telling one…… Luke 1:35 The angel replied to her:” The ---holy spirit------ will come upon you, and THE POWER of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore, the holy One to be born will be called the Son of God. Do you see it David? The holy spirit ----IS----THE POWER OF GOD not another ENTITY or person as trinitarians call it. If the holy spirit was a person then JESUS would be the son of the holy spirit because if we go with the trinitarian logic it was the holy spirit ‘PERSON’ that was present during Mary conception. but we are told that JESUS ----IS---THE SON OF GOD Luke 1:35 …..Therefore, the holy One to be born will be called THE SON OF GOD.

@@mitchellc4 you are to understand that all these references you have made, point to God, the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. And by understanding that, what it means is: the God who is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Before arguing for any case, please try to read the Original language text and then you can come and criticize or argue your point. why not we understand God for who He is and not try to interpret God for who we think He might be. Using Greek text, you will be able to clearly understand these. The writers in NT, especially Paul tries to help the people understand who God is by relating it to Jesus Christ so that the listeners and readers of his letter can understand it more appropriately and not misinterpret it. Hope you understand... Let's not argue. If you have faith in Jesus as God, that would be enough. don't dig deep to find things which aren't even there.
@@jairus5112 Hello Thanks for responding Where do you find anything about “believing Jesus is God” in the Bible? You said that would be enough Where do you find anything about us supposed to “believe Jesus is God”?
There’s no God the Son language mentioned in the scripture. The Antichrist has changed the word of God. Jesus being God don’t harmonize with others books of the Bible. Jesus being God contradicts the the whole Holy Bible. The word was with God. You can’t be with someone and be that person. John makes it clear at John 20:31 Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This harmonize with Matt 16:13-17 Peter said Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This is revealed by Jesus father Jehovah. The trinity is a Antichrist teaching. 1 John 4:1-3 Jesus is the Christ not his father Jehovah. The Antichrist doesn’t believe Jesus is the Christ.Heb 1:9 God anointed Jesus. Luke 1:26-35 and Ga 4:4 Give you the truth not a contradiction about Jesus.
We read the following in John 19:6, 7 6 Therefore, when the chief priests and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!” Pilate said to them, “You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him.” 7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to [a]our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God.” The religious leaders clearly understood that Jesus was making himself out to be God. Jesus did not correct them, or tell them that they were making a mistake, of that they misunderstood him. So if Jesus was making himself out to be God, should we believe Him or not? Hebrews 1:7, 8 tells us...7 And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.” 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. There we see God the Father speaks to the Son as God. I hope that this helps. Blessings!
I an 25 years old and I was a lukewarm Christian but i have decided to repent and turn my life completely to Jesus, as such I made a plan to study the entire Bible one chapter at a time. I don't know how long it will take but i want to know more of Jesus through his word. I am using Enduring word as a guide when I don't understand certain scriptures. Thank you for your great teachings Pastor Guzik. May God continue to bless you abundantly and may you continue to use your gift of teaching others the word of God. Greetings from Guyana 🇬🇾

I listened to Pastor Paul LEBOUTILLIER at Calvary Chapel in the beginning, pastor Paul cited Pastor David Guzik's teachings many times in his talk. That is how I came to know pastor Guzik. One day I listened to Pastor Guzik's teaching, it blows my mind. Now I listen to both Pastor Paul and Pastor Guzik, also Pastor Chunk Smith. They are such a huge blessings in my life.
I've jumped around but I've always loved Matthew's gospel so I have always went there.
Just love your heart Pastor! Keep preaching and teaching - learning so much!!
Thank you, Pastor David. The HS has lead me here to learn so I can share John better to others who are studying with me the book of John.

June, blessings in Jesus' name!
God bless you and family
Your exegesis are mind blowing
Pastor David, I’ve been looking for someone to just ‘preach the Word’. I follow your Thursday Q&A. This Sunday morning, Holy Spirit spoke, “What about David Guzik?” He was correct, just as He always is. I’m going to listen my way through John, then see where the Lord leads. Thank you, Pastor! God bless you!
Thank You Pastor...... wonderful enlightment through the Word of God.
Good message brother 👍. Also Christians stay strong in these last days. God bless Jesus and bless Jehovah.
Amen - may God help us to be strong in Him and faithful unto Him!
Listening and watching you from Philippines! GOD bless you!
Jesus, l trust you. Amen
Thank you pastor David Guzik.
Your sermons always breathes a freshness in my spiritual soul. May God continue to use and bless you and make your ministry a blessing for many seekers of truth
None seek after God. There's not some who choose HIM. None seek HIM. He MUST awaken us to our need
John didn't start the Gospel from Jesus's birth, he started it from the very nature of Jesus pre-incarnation, He was the Word, the Logos, the very Person who made creations possible. What a brilliant book St. John wrote.
Great God of the Old Testament🔥🔥
Very good basics concerning the lord
God bless
You are so awesome! Love this.
Amen🙏🏻blessed😊
Pastor david. I have not read this yet. Am I'm so thankful i get to hear it how you read it!! Praise Jesus he let me find you❤❤❤ I understand chapter 1 fairly well but by chapter 2 John lost me 😂
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (January 3, Christmas 2), this was our Gospel of the Day, as it is every year on this Sunday (January 2-5). BTW, John 1:1-14 is usually read on Christmas Day.
great preching pastor
Thank you, Bijay!
Logos is actually in mathematics too. its a form of calculus and algebra. if Word = God
God =Word
Jesus = Word
Jesus = God = Word
In Jesus Name, Amen 🙏 ♥️
Questions for me are. Does it matter if God is a triune God not? Are we not instructed to pray in Jesus name Amen? What relevance is this debate about a triune God or not? Pray to God in Jesus name Amen!. This pastor has so much good material out , even this video, and his messages are so much bigger than the concept of the Trinity.
Pastor Lance replies - True. However, the nature of God is a central theme of the Bible, so it is important that we think rightly about Him.
wow. thank yiu
Salvation is of God ----- NOT the WILL OF man NOT the WILL OF the FLESH. NONE seek after God by their fleshly will
Yeah. God Jesus
The Word of Yahweh: Understanding John 1:1-18 Through Solid Supporting Scriptures in the Old and the New Testaments.
The Word of Yahweh: Understanding Creation Through John 1
The Scriptures provide profound insight into the creation of the world and the role of Yahweh, the only true God. Isaiah 44:24 states, “This is what Yahweh says-your Redeemer and Creator: ‘I am Yahweh, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. Who was with me when I made the earth?’” This verse emphasizes that Yahweh alone is the Creator, having made all things by Himself, highlighting His sovereignty and uniqueness in the act of creation.
The question arises: If Yahweh created the world, then what role does the Word, often associated with Christ, play in creation? Psalm 33:4, 6, 8-9 tells us, “For Yahweh’s word is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. By Yahweh’s word, the heavens were made: all their army by the breath of his mouth. Let all the earth fear Yahweh. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm.” This passage clearly demonstrates that it is through Yahweh’s Word that creation occurs, indicating the Word’s divine authority and active role in the process.
Furthermore, Isaiah 55:11 declares, “It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.” This verse reinforces that the Word originates from Yahweh’s mouth, further establishing its divine authority and purpose. It emphasizes that Yahweh’s Word is not merely a statement but an active force that achieves His will.
Now, does this mean that Jesus is the Word in the same sense? In Genesis 1:3, we see, “Then God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.” This creative command from Yahweh initiated the creation of light, showcasing His power and authority. The New Testament expands on this by identifying Jesus as the Word. In John 1:1, it states, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Here, we see the intimate relationship between God and the Word, yet it does not imply that Jesus is Yahweh Himself. Instead, it affirms Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God’s Word and promises.
In John 17:3, Jesus clarifies His relationship with the Father: “And this is the way to have eternal life-to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.” This declaration highlights that Jesus identifies the Father as the only true God, further delineating the distinction between Yahweh and Jesus Christ. Jesus acknowledges the Father’s supreme authority and does not equate Himself with Yahweh.
Considering these verses together, we can clearly see the distinction between Yahweh and Jesus Christ. While Jesus is indeed central to understanding God’s revelation and serves as the Messiah sent by Yahweh, He is not equated with Yahweh Himself. This understanding is vital for a correct interpretation of Scripture.
Additionally, the Gospel of John provides insight into the role of Jesus as the Word made flesh. John 1:14 states, “And the Word became flesh and lived among us. We have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s one and only son, full of grace and truth.” This verse emphasizes that Jesus embodies the fullness of God’s revelation, showcasing God’s character and will to humanity while still being distinct from the Father.
To summarize, the creation narrative attributes the power and authority of creation to Yahweh alone. Jesus Christ is the Messiah who reveals the Father to humanity, fulfilling the prophecies and promises of Yahweh but remains distinct from Him. Understanding this relationship is crucial for accurately interpreting Scripture and grasping the nature of God as presented in the Bible.
In conclusion, while Jesus Christ plays a vital role in God’s plan for salvation and revelation, He does so as the Son of God and the promised Messiah, not as Yahweh or a separate deity. This understanding aligns with the teachings of both the Old and New Testaments, emphasizing the unity and singularity of Yahweh as the only true God. As believers, it is essential to recognize and honor this distinction to maintain the integrity of our faith in Yahweh, the only true God our Heavenly Father, and His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

How about the verses that tells that God is only one and it is the Father
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
John 17:3
But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
1 Corinthians 8:6
Maybe we are wrong in interpreting John 1:1 or there is an error in the translation of that verse? Perhaps the purpose of the gospel of John is to persuade the reader that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, not God himself or God also.
Here's a passage to consider...John 10:30-33...
30 I and My Father are one.”
31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?”
33 The Jews answered Him, saying, “For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.”
The Jews that were there understood exactly what Jesus was saying...that He was making Himself out to be God. Jesus did not try to correct them, for they understood exactly what He was saying.
Thanks for sharing, hope this helps. Blessings.
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord I think the Jews misinterpreted Jesus. Because we can read at the proceeding verses,
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
John 10:34-36
The Jews exaggerated Jesus claims of being the Son of the only true God (John 17:3, 3:16).
Take a look on it,
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
John 5:18
At John chap. 10 Jesus claimed to be the Son of God the Jews interprets it as claiming to be a God Himself. But in John chap. 5 Jesus claimed God to be His Father and the Jews interprets it as claiming to be equal with God. You see the difference?
And did Jesus really broke the Sabbath? Even before He was crucified? I don't think so, if then He must be accounted as sinner!
Accusation is not always true!
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord And for correction, Jesus did corrected the Jews John 10:34-35. For the readers sake. More blessings.

Do you preach from the King James Bible?

I’m confused. John the apostle and John the Baptist are not the same person
John is introducing Jesus as Judge (Word and Lord), God was the Word in the OT, but Christ is Lord and Judge in the NT.
Well said.
John 1:1 Does not tell us who the word is.
In John 1:3 We learn that all things were made through HIM.
In John 1:18 we read “No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made (HIM) known.
Notice how Jesus has made HIM known, who is HIM ?
The word = HIM
And if you can bear to hear it
HIM is the Holy Spirit The WORD of God.
If you read John 1 :1-18 And replace HIM with THE HOLY SPIRIT/WORD
You will understand that THE WORD is the HOLY SPIRIT which is the word of God…
Those with ears let them hear.
Those with eyes to see Let them see.
Apostle Paul never said Jessus was the word nor he said Jessus was God ,but he said in 1COR CH 8 V5,even man can be God.John ch17 kill one In three God.,verse 3 ,26.
This isn't about Paul this is about John the Baptist ❤ much love in Jesus name.
Paul was after John the Baptist, he was called John the Baptist HE BAPTIZED JESUS before all those people and Jesus made him. He said it's part of being born again.
You have to be baptized of water and born of spirit. Just the wrong amazing person.
🥰🥰
The true Light is not Jesus, it is the Holy Spirit of God, the world did not know him. John the Baptist introduced us to the Holy Spirit, and Jesus said we must be Born of him.
Here are some verses for you to consider.
1 John 1:6-13 tells us...the following passage speaks of Jesus...
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. 11 He came to His [c]own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
I hope that this helps. Blessings!
John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
John 10:16 And other sheep ( The 144,000 ) I have, ( Jesus Christ, within the spirit of truth ) which are not of this fold: ( The wise virgins, of the 144,000 ) them also I must bring, ( Relevant to the judgment, ) and they shall hear my voice; ( Within The Spirit Of Truth, ) and there shall be one fold, ( The 144,000 as the church ) and one shepherd.( The Spirit Of Truth. )
How and when did John become aware that Jesus was the son of God?
The key point is that he is the Son of God, and not God as so many have unfortunately been led to believe.
@@mattgardiner614
If Jesus is the son of God then where is the evidence? That is the key point?
@@edwardlongfellow5819 Yes, I understand. Every so-called Trinity proof text that I can think of has either been mistranslated, or it can be shown that it does not mean what Trinitarians claim that it means. (Compare John 10:30 with John 17:11 & 21, for example)
@@mattgardiner614
Jesus was never the son of any god. His father was human in accordance with nature.
@@edwardlongfellow5819 I see now. Sorry. I assumed you were a Christian, like me, who rejects the Trinity. Apologize for the misunderstanding.
Very dramatic. Well done.
Greek mentioned. What is before?
Religion is interesting.
The corn. The Spirit Of Truth is in the world and the world do not know him. What’s so strange about that.
And still Muslim claim that Jesus is not god like John literally state that Jesus is word of God in flesh 🙏🙏🙏
Just be sure to disregard Revelation chapter 3.
4:33
The ecclesia (not churches) means called out ones. As in “COME OUT OF HER (religion) MY PEOPLE” JESUS ecclesia is spiritual we as believers are the spiritual stones. We are HIS BODY HE IS MY HEAD. GOD dwells not in churches made with hands.
Did you know that in John 1:1-3, there are different Greek words for both Gods mentioned?
The Word, Jesus, (Λόγος or Logos), was with God (Θεόν, or Theon).
The Word was God (Θεὸς, or Theos).
He, Jesus, was in the beginning with God (Θεόν, Theon).
Even though these are different cases of the same word, they are nevertheless differentiated.
Satan was also called θεὸς, or Theos at 2 Corinthians 4:4.
Is Satan also God?
Don’t know Greek? Neither do I.
Let’s break this down a little further shall
we?
In the beginning was the word (Jesus, Son of God), and the word (Jesus, Son of God) was with God (Almighty God, God the Father), and the word (Jesus, Son of God) was God (Almighty God, God the Father)?
No matter how you put it, it doesn’t make sense!!
What does make sense is that Jesus, being in the beginning with God (Genesis 1:26, John 1:1), in fact being God’s very first creation (Colossians 1:15, Proverbs 8:22, Revelation 3:14), actually calls God his God and worships God the Father. (Revelation 3:12, John 20:17)
Jesus told us who He was and He never claimed to be God! And John was a teenager, so to take his word over Jesus is to deny Him!
But Jesus does refer to him be the same as God... Jesus is God in human form?
@@QzSuZie Sorry but He never called Himself God, only the Son or Christ!
youre wrong in saying Jesus is not the Father, Isaiah calls him the Everlasting Father
Thank you for your comment! I think we're mostly in agreement, there may just be a misunderstanding about terms or titles. Here are a few key Bible verses that emphasize the important, clear distinction between the Son and the Father:
[#1] John 1:1-2: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.” This highlights the relationship between the Father and the Son (the Word).
[#2] John 14:28: Jesus says, “The Father is greater than I.” This statement clearly indicates a *distinction in their roles and nature.*
[#3] Matthew 26:39: In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prays, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” This shows Jesus *addressing the Father as a separate person.*
[#4] John 10:30: Jesus says, “I and the Father are one,” which speaks to their unity but does not imply they are the same person. Meaning, Jesus *does not say "I am the Father," He instead distinguishes Himself at distinct* from the Father, while being united and in union with Him (in the Trinity).
[#5] John 17:20-21: In His prayer, Jesus expresses a desire for believers to be one, just as He and the Father are one, indicating a relationship of unity among distinct persons.
These verses contribute to the understanding of the distinct persons of the Father and the Son - the Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Father, neither the Son nor Father are the Holy Spirit, but all 3 are coequally God, united in the Trinity.

@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord i get what youre saying i guess the scripture that came to me was when John said i and the Father are One but we are also one with Christ yet we are not Christ himself but his body so i guess it makes sense
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord do you think its possible for the Holy Ghost and Jesus to be on the Earth at the same time or did one have to die for the other to be present?
'God the Son'? excuse me but that is NOT a bible expression!. 'God the Father' YES! 30 times! ' God the Son' 0 times!, 'God the Holy Spirit' 0 times!. How can the 'Word' be God himself if a. He was "with God" & since the word became VISIBLE how can he be 'God' if verse 18 states "No one has seen GOD at any time"? Also John recorded the 'word' saying "I am ascending to MY GOD"? John 20:17. Thus many scholars realise John used 'God' to describe the 'divine nature' of the son "made in God's image" rather than Almighty God Himself, whom Jesus worshiped and prayed to while on earth & will yet be "subject to God" ( 1 Cor 15:28)
Hello, thank you for your comment and concern. We're asking people to please pray for the Enduring Word ministry, as we've had a lot of people distracting the resources of our team with pedantry, assumptive conjecture, and sometimes vicious or irrelevant issues. Not sure if it's a mild form of spiritual warfare, or just part of what happens when a completely free resource is open to very public consumption, critique, and ridicule.
But at a time when the Bride of Christ seems to be fracturing ever further, your continued prayers for God's Word to be heard and served in spirit and truth would be very much appreciated.
Thank you and God bless!

dont like the yelling and screaming
The king James Bible reads that but as you said no vowels or punctuation in the beginning there was God and the word was a god is how it is supposed to read Jesus is the Son of God, my people perish from lack of knowledge .
I have listened to your history videos and have learned a lot. No disrespect however, Your doctrines are the same as all religions doctrines and teachings. The trinity is not in the Bible and we are warned about adding to the scriptures or taking away.
1)GOD IS SPIRIT Spirits can not die even JESUS tell us that about angels.
2)where in the Bible does it tell us the Holy Spirit is JESUS father? After all JESUS was conceived by the Holy Spirit. No? The scriptures clearly tell us the Holy Spirit is the power of GOD not a third second first whatever person.
3) Jesus always said “I CAME FROM ABOVE” “I CAME FROM THE FATHER” “MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I” there are tons of scriptures that totally destroy the false trinity doctrine.
Hi Pepe, thanks for writing.
Let me respond to your comments.
All religious doctrines are not the same.
A quick comparison of Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism, and Christianity will reveal that those religious belief systems are very different.
The teaching of the Trinity is brought to us in the Bible.
In Exodus 3:13-15, we see God naming himself as "I Am".
13 Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?” 14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ” 15 Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’
In John 8:54-59, Jesus sued that same name, "I Am", to describe himself.
The Jews who heard him say that knew that he was ascribing deity to Himself, and they tried to kill him
Jesus did not try to correct them (in case they misunderstood him).
John 8:54-59
54 Jesus answered, “If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is [o]your God. 55 Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I say, ‘I do not know Him,’ I shall be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad.” 57 Then the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.” 59 Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going[p] through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Jesus ascribed deity to Himself, apart from the Father.
So far, we God the Father, and God the Son.
In Acts 5:1-4, we see Peter equating lying to the Holy Spirit as "lying to God".
5 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. 2 And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles’ feet. 3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God.”
There we see the Bible describing the Holy Spirit as God.
Thus we see the Biblical doctrine of the Trinity.
You are correct that God is Spirit, but a spirit can put on flesh.
We see demons (spirits) inhabiting people and even swine.
The body of Jesus died, but was raised to life, a glorified body.
Regarding Jesus as being subservient to the Father, that is correct, but it doesn't take away the divinity of Jesus.
1 Corinthians 11:3 tells us...
3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
Men and women are of equal value and worth before God, and yet there is a hierarchy of responsibility.
The same is true of God the Father and God the Son.
Jesus' submission to the Father doesn't take away his deity.
I hope that this helps.
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord
Good morning, David
nothing you sent me here proves what i consider the false trinity doctrine. See I believe JESUS WORDS and HE tells me this……
John 5:37 The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
So who did the patriarchs like Moses Abraham etc...in the old testament seen and heard? JESUS or angels! Is always been JESUS from the book of Genesis to revelation is ALL JESUS. Even Paul tell us it was JESUS CHRIST the GOD of the old testament……
I Corinthians 10:1 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud, and that they all passed through the sea. 2They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3They all ate the same spiritual food 4and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST
next we are also told that ONLY JESUS has ascended and descended from heaven. right/
John 3:13 No one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.
So who do you think is spoken about here in the old testament if not JESUS…..
Proverbs 30:4 Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and WHAT IS HIS SON NAME, if you know?
Lastly does it not make you pause when you DO NOT hear any of the apostles EVER giving reverence to the holy spirit but only to GOD THE FATHER and HIS SON JESUS CHRIST? why is it? Is because the Apostles, like myself KNEW what the holy spirit is. We are told what the holy spirit is in our bibles. Here is one very telling one……
Luke 1:35 The angel replied to her:” The ---holy spirit------ will come upon you, and THE POWER of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore, the holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.
Do you see it David? The holy spirit ----IS----THE POWER OF GOD not another ENTITY or person as trinitarians call it. If the holy spirit was a person then JESUS would be the son of the holy spirit because if we go with the trinitarian logic it was the holy spirit ‘PERSON’ that was present during Mary conception. but we are told that JESUS ----IS---THE SON OF GOD
Luke 1:35 …..Therefore, the holy One to be born will be called THE SON OF GOD.
@@MACLOVIO357-SOSA Thanks for your thoughts.
We will have to agree to disagree. Blessings!
@@DavidGuzikEnduringWord Agree to disagree? no sir. is not how it works with GOD'S WORD what does light have to do with darkness. that is this is a rebuke sir. you need to be humble and correct the errors. Paul corrected Peter. Galatians 20:11 to 21 imagine if they had said 'we have to agree to disagree" i will tell you sir all i know ALL has been given to me. i am a man who was a crack addict for 20 plus years and is been 17 years since GOD released me from that life of sin. and so i am not attempting to show off here because again i am a nobody in this world but in the spiritual world i am a priest. a royal priest in fact. we all are. 1 Peter 2:9 and 10 please repent and correct these errors sir.
Hello
There’s no “God the Son” in scripture
Jesus is the Messiah
The Son of God
The Son of David
The Son of man
The man God has chosen to be his anointed king
The man God will judge the world through
The man God raised from the dead
Jesus will return and rule the nations with believers in the kingdom of God on the earth
Jesus has a God
There is no triune god in scripture
Jesus said the Father is the only true God!
John 17
3 And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.

Acts 3
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
14 But ye denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted unto you,
15 and killed the Prince of life; whom God raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
Notice Jesus is NOT the God of Abraham
13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Servant Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied before the face of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.
John 1: 1 " the Word was God"
John 1: 14 " the Word became flesh" & "the only begotten"
John 1: 18 "the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the father"
Everything points to Jesus as the person who is the Word, who is God and who is the eternal son of the eternal father

Hello
Where is the word of God ever a person in the Old Testament?
In the beginning was Jesus and Jesus was with the Father and Jesus was the Father??
That won’t work
The word is a personification of God’s word
Similar to Wisdom in Proverbs
Jesus is referred to by Paul as the Wisdom if God
Does that mean a female spirit being named Wisdom transformed into a human named Jesus?? And the word did too? Two being transformed into a human?
No
Jesus is the embodiment of God’s word and wisdom

12 He who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name.
John 20
17 Jesus said to her, “Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.”
@@mitchellc4 you are to understand that all these references you have made, point to God, the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ. And by understanding that, what it means is: the God who is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Before arguing for any case, please try to read the Original language text and then you can come and criticize or argue your point. why not we understand God for who He is and not try to interpret God for who we think He might be. Using Greek text, you will be able to clearly understand these. The writers in NT, especially Paul tries to help the people understand who God is by relating it to Jesus Christ so that the listeners and readers of his letter can understand it more appropriately and not misinterpret it. Hope you understand... Let's not argue. If you have faith in Jesus as God, that would be enough. don't dig deep to find things which aren't even there.

Hello
Thanks for responding
Where do you find anything about “believing Jesus is God” in the Bible?
You said that would be enough
Where do you find anything about us supposed to “believe Jesus is God”?
There’s no God the Son language mentioned in the scripture. The Antichrist has changed the word of God. Jesus being God don’t harmonize with others books of the Bible. Jesus being God contradicts the the whole Holy Bible. The word was with God. You can’t be with someone and be that person. John makes it clear at John 20:31 Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This harmonize with Matt 16:13-17 Peter said Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This is revealed by Jesus father Jehovah. The trinity is a Antichrist teaching. 1 John 4:1-3 Jesus is the Christ not his father Jehovah. The Antichrist doesn’t believe Jesus is the Christ.Heb 1:9 God anointed Jesus. Luke 1:26-35 and Ga 4:4 Give you the truth not a contradiction about Jesus.
We read the following in John 19:6, 7
6 Therefore, when the chief priests and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!” Pilate said to them, “You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him.” 7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to [a]our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God.”
The religious leaders clearly understood that Jesus was making himself out to be God. Jesus did not correct them, or tell them that they were making a mistake, of that they misunderstood him.
So if Jesus was making himself out to be God, should we believe Him or not?
Hebrews 1:7, 8 tells us...7 And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.” 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.
There we see God the Father speaks to the Son as God.
I hope that this helps. Blessings!
Complete false teaching!!! God the son is blasphemy, no scripture ever says that, in fact Christ said the opposite and did so in John
