Jesus and His God

{Acts 17:31} Because he has appointed [a] day in which he comes to judge the world in righteousness by means of [a] man whom he appointed, having provided a guarantee to all, having raised him out of [the] dead." This scripture is often presented by trinitarians and some others as proof that Jesus is still a man; and many also have offered this scripture as proof of the claim that Jesus now has two "natures", one nature alleged to be that of the Supreme Being, and another nature being that of a human being. We should first note that "he" who appointed the day, ordained Jesus, and raised Jesus from the dead, is identified in context as being "God" -- only one person -- in harmony with John 17:1,3 and 1 Corinthians 8:6. The Greek words meaning God and "Godhead" (King James Version - Acts 17:29) of Acts 17 are therefore referring to only one person, and it is this same unipersonal "God" who has appointed a day in which the world i...

Is Jesus the "Ancient of Days" spoken of in Daniel 7? Daniel 7:9 I saw until thrones were placed, and one who was ancient of days sat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, [and] the wheels of it burning fire. -- World English. Daniel 7:13 I saw in the night-visions, and, behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. -- World English. Daniel 7:22 until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. --  World English. According to many, one of the titles (or “names”)  of Jesus is “Ancient of Days”. One has claimed: “The book of Daniel also speaks of Christ, Who is represented as both the Ancient of Days and the Son of man.” Another claims: “Jesus is the Ancient of Days, the one on the throne, our jud...

The Lord of Glory When Paul wrote of Jesus as "Lord of glory" in 1 Corinthians 2:8, was he saying that Jesus is Jehovah? For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory. — 1 Corinthians 2:8, World English . The claim is sometimes made that 1 Corinthians 2:8 proves that Jesus is Jehovah (Yahweh), “the King of glory.” The way this is allegedly proved is that 1 Corinthians 2:8 is crossed with the following scriptures, by which it is supposed that this proves that Jesus is Jehovah (Yahweh): {Psalm 24:7} Lift up your heads, you gates! Be lifted up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in. {Psalm 24:8} Who is the King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle. {Psalm 24:9} Lift up your heads, you gates; yes, lift them up, you everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in. {Psalm 24:10} Who is this King of glory? Jehovah of Armies is the King of glory! Selah. — RLIV . At most, what we can see between the t...
