Hello again Bro. T, "
Two that make up the Godhead"
The Bible tells us plainly that there is "one Lord", but you said there are "Two". Who are these "Two" Lords?
Thanks!
--David
p.s. - BTW, I've heard somewhere that the make up of the "Godhead" is actually One and Three, IOW, the Godhead is one God (
not two or three "Gods") existing both from & to everlasting as three, Divine Persons.
Let's take a look at a verse here concerning the two God heads. Let's go into John 5:36
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. So we see the Father sent Jesus, let's not stop here. But lets tip toe in the scriptures and see some things.
In Genesis 1: 26 And God said,
Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. So here we see us and our, letting us know that
it's more
than one. In the old testament the Father name was not mention, but
there were still clues or writing to let us know that there were two.
Let's go into Proverbs 30:4
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth?
what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell? So let's get a name God wad using in the old Testament in Exodus 6:3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the
name of God Almighty, but
by my name Jehovah was I not known to them. Lets get more information about the name.
Let's go into John 5:37
And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. This is why is look as if there was just one God in old Testament, because in those days we only knew of Jehovah. But let's skip down to verse 43
I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. So Jesus saying here I come in my Father name, if I came in mine own name Jehovah, we wouldn't have this unbelieve problem we have today. 46
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. 47
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
But let's confirm who was in the old Testament in 1 Corinthians 10: 1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that
all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;2 And were
all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 4
And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and
that Rock was Christ. So that was Christ back in the days of moses, that was Christ who gave the Ten Commandments, statutes, and Judgements. Now years ago many believe that was the Father back in those days, so now proving all things kills those thoughts, and maybe some still do. Let's read some concrete words from Jesus in John 16: 27
For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. 28
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. Let's look at another in John 17: 3
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6
I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. 7
Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. So now let's take a look and see where Jesus is now.
Let's go to Acts 2: 31 He seeing this before spake of the
resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell,
neither his flesh did see corruption. 32
This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. 33
Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself,
The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 35
Until I make thy foes thy footstool. So we see a little more info here, David is not in heaven, so we know in ours days and before David, no one goes to heaven when they die. But the David name was mention here because he wrote this prophecy in Psalm 110: 1
The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. 2 The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
How many Lords we see here?...Two. Hope this helps...peace in Jesus name
