I think Jesus was born a baby, grew to be a man, died and was glorified as Almighty God after the resurrection.


He is now the one true Almighty God you guys are discussing.

I dont believe he preexisted bro.

I dont believe he was a GOD/MAN

I believe he was a perfect human being and Gods' only begotten(human) son without sin, that was INDWELLED by his God(Father) for 33 years of life on earth.

What is so hard about a human being being exalted by Almighty God as our God and being Indwelled by that same God?


Or would you rather try to wrap your head around pages and pages of explanations by our professors of how we have a divine/human?(all God/all man).


The simple scripture defines what I believe. I think my concept is very close to what the early church thought.

Notice, they only had the passages we quote, not books FILLED with explanations as we do today.

The early church did just fine without the commentaries.

....
There is soo much wrong with saying Jesus was exalted by Almighty God as our God. I don't even know where to begin.

1. It makes you have 2 Gods. Jesus is a separate person and thus separate God from the God that exalted him as God.

2. God isn't a position one can be exalted to.

I'm sure there's more I could offer but I think the above 2 points shows what is hard about a human being being exalted by Almighty God as our God. (Verses like my glory I will not give to another come to mind).

So the only difference between you and Unitarians is that the second person became God later on

And between your view and Trinitarians is the Second person who became God did not always exist

Yeah..thats not Oneness. Oneness teaches Jesus is and has always been the One God before, during and after being born.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
