Yes, Jesus = God in a restrictive sense.

What is an image? Anybody? Just asking.


He is the exact image, likeness, or representation of the invisible God, Amen? (Colossians1) But the invisible God, God the Father is absolute Deity. He gave all things to Jesus, the Son and He appointed Jesus, the Son. The Son was given all authority by the Father who is absolute Deity. The Son can do nothing without the Father, the source. The Son always points to the Father. The Son delivers all things to the Father, is subject to the Father and will be subject to the Father. He will reign until He puts all enemies under His feet.

How can one who is absolute Deity be subject to absolute Deity?

How can one who has all authority be given any authority?

How can one who is absolute Deity be a likeness of absolute Deity?

1 Corinthians 8:
4Concerning the eating then of the things sacrificed to idols, we have known that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that there is no other God except one;

5for even if there are those called gods, whether in heaven, whether upon earth -- as there are gods many and lords many -- 6yet to us [is] one God, the Father, of whom [are] the all things, and we to Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom [are] the all things, and we through Him;

John 5: 30 I can of myself do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.







God bless.

Jesus is subject to the Father, because the Father is absolute Deity. Jesus said that He could do nothing of Himself. Absolute Deity has all power. Jesus is the exact image, likeness, representation of the invisible God, the Father, Campbell. He is not the Father who is is absolute Deity. He has the title of God because the Father gave Him this title and He is filled with the fulness of God. God, the Father, gave Him all authority. When we "look at Jesus" we "see" the absolute Deity, the invisible God because Jesus is the exact image, likeness, representation of the invisible God. He reveals the Father, the absolute Deity, to us.

The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are united, one in purpose. Jesus prayed for His disciples to be one just as He and the Father are one.


God bless.
If Jesus is a second God, who do we Worship, do we worship Jesus as God, or do we Worship the Father as God ?

And in Isaiah 45:5 It states that "I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me (THERE IS NO GOD).
Was God wrong when He said that? Because, (the Father calls Jesus God).
It appears if Jesus is a second God as you say, then the Father must be wrong.

The Father is never wrong. He gave Jesus all authority and the name above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow and every tongue should confess that Jesus is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

God bless.

If the Father is never wrong, and He tells us in Isaiah 46:9 that He is the only God. Why does the Father call Jesus God? Which is it? Is Jesus a God we should worship? or should we only worship the Father only? Because the Father said He is the only God. How can the Father say He is the only God, when at the same time He is calling Jesus God? Giving someone authority is one thing, but God tells us that Jesus is also God. And He tells us this, when He clearly states (He is the only God).

Too bad you can't just ask Jesus if he is God. Although he seems to repeatedly separate himself from God in the bible. But this conversation has no end as it is all based on what you think the word "god" means, and there are so many definitions.
