As I mentioned at the start of my first post, I introduced this new OP because no one had commented upon my idea responding to the OP in "Does Yahweh have a CONSCIENCE?" There have still been no posts on that thread since July 5th. Your objection applies to that OP. I'm just trying to help.The idea that Christ is a created being or that the Spirit is too is wrong.
The problem comes from a false assumption in the OP about God. That He needs a "higher standard". He doesn't. There is none "above" Him. He swears by Himself. He takes an oath by Himself (Heb.).
I knew that I would be misunderstood. I don't mean that the Being(s) of the Trinity are not eternal, co-eternal. I mean that the names defined for the Trinity suggest that the original Being(s) at some point became henceforth understandable as Trinity, whereas such was not originally the case. The concept "Trinity" goes back to that point and not farther. The concept of the new status is what I say in not "eternal".
Don't blame me for the misunderstandings intrinsic to the concept of the Trinity. I don't claim to understand it; no one does. I just hope to have contributed to increasing what understanding we limited humans can have of the Trinity.
