This is a FALSE doctrine that was contrived by a Council of Catholic Bishops in 381 AD to justify the FALSE teaching that Jesus is God.
Thus, if Jesus says he is a MAN (the CREATED being), then there is no way that Jesus is himself the ONLY ONE God who CREATED himself
My understanding is that Jesus the man isn't actually the Logos, but he allowed the Logos to become him and take over.Originally posted by Damon
Justin Martyr: "...the Father of the universe has a Son; who being the logos and First-begotten is also God" (First Apology 63:15).

The Logos is the only thing that God created directly, everything else God created through the Logos.God cannot actually be the Logos as John implies, because the Bible says that God created the Logos in the beginning. The Logos is made divine by God, and the Logos is above everything else because God created the Logos directly, but the Logos can't be God...Originally posted by SCJ
John 1:1-
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
All things were made through Jesus, He is the creator. Jesus is God, so God is the Creator. Jesus, God, and The Holy Spirit are not created Beings.
That passage depicts the father, the son, and the holy spirit as three separate beings, not as one being.Originally posted by Mandy
Luke 3:21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
Luke 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
This is a clear view in Scripture of the Trinity.
The Trinity doctrine says that they are all the same being.Originally posted by TScott
According to the Trinity they are individuals that share the same essence. Whatever that means. Three individuals that share the same existence, maybe?
