Being eternal is irrelevant since you've already confirmed that when persons died the Persons live on (Does not cease to exist)
I see your point, and agree to an extent., But why did the Word never say "GOD DIED"? The Word is so wonderful and perfect when we consider these things.

It says He is the Almighty, though.

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.

If you want to only say what the text says explicitly where does it ever say "the Almighty is God"

Why did the word never say "Jesus is God"?

Thats an argument heard often from Unitarians to Muslims...they want quotes where Jesus said "I Am God" in those exact words

but we know from deductive reasoning that the bible teaches Jesus is God without having to use those exact words. Thomas calls him "My God" etc etc

The bible also speaks of God's blood..His own blood
