I never said Jesus was not the Father. What I did say was, I'm not convinced that Paul, or any other apostle, would be comfortable saying that
Jesus is His own Father
Maybe you could give scripture for
exactly that? Sure, "He that hath seen me, hath seen the Father"( because He came from God).... His name shall be called everlasting Father.... Jesus said He'd be a Father to the orphanless... My point was, Paul never used such language as "Jesus was
HIS OWN Father, or, Jesus was
His own Son, or Jesus
Fathered Himself. That kind of "lango" isn't in the bible. But this kind of "separated distinction"is:
Ex:
Gal. 1:1 Paul an apostle..., but
by Jesus Christ, and God the Father who raised him from the dead.(I know: Jesus said destroy this temple, and 3 days I will raise it, my point of separation remains) Please view below, and then answer my highlighted question. Thanks again.
