B-5 Ch4. Consider the Apostle and High Priest!

Download.

Have you TRULY CONSIDERED the Son of God

as an Apostle SENT by his God and Father?

 

Chapter 4.

CONSIDER the WHOLE word of God!

 

In other words, do not FOCUS ONLY on the verses that Trinitarian Christians take OUT of their CONTEXT to try to prove that God is a so-called “Trinity” Godhead made up of three separate persons. And for all of my readers who are Oneness Pentecostal Christians, do not FOCUS ONLY on the verses of Scripture that SEEM to be saying that Jesus is the Father Himself.

But rather, CONSIDER, all of the Scriptures that clearly teach us that it was the Son of MAN who was lifted up on the cross and NOT that God HIMSELF died for the sins of the world.

 

Hebrew 3:1-6. 

 

“Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; 

Hebrews 3:2. Who was faithful to Him that APPOINTED him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. 

Hebrews 3:3. For this MAN was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has built the house has more honor than the house. 

Hebrews 3:4. For every house is built by some man; but He that built all things is God. 

Hebrews 3:5. And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after. 

Hebrews 3:6. But Christ as a Son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.” 

 

In other words, God, who at various times and in different manners spoke in time past in the Old Testament unto the fathers by the prophets. But during these LAST days, God has spoken to us through His Son who He has APPOINTED to be the HEIR of the ALL, and FOR whom He ALSO made the WORLDS in the plural, according to Hebrews 1:1,2. This is referring to God RESTORING the earth in Genesis chapter 1, the world to come during the 1000-year reign of Jesus, and the New heavens and the New earth in the age of eternity after the Millennial reign of Jesus and the final Day of Judgment. The main point is that the Greek word translated as “by whom also He made the worlds” should be more correctly translated as FOR whom also He made the worlds. The KJV translation misleads Christians to wrongly believe that God used His Son to CREATE the worlds. And it makes no sense for a so-called God the Son to create the worlds so that he can INHERIT the worlds. You do not build a house with your own hands so that you can INHERIT the house someday. You build a house as ALREADY being the OWNER of the house.

 

Hebrews 5:1.  

 

“For every high priest taken from among MEN is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: (So then, clearly, a high priest is NOT God)

Hebrews 5:2. Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity. (And thus, God needed a MAN to be His high priest to offer sacrifice for the sins of men)

Hebrews 5:3. And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so ALSO FOR himself, to offer for sins. 

Hebrews 5:4. And no MAN takes this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. 

Hebrews 5:5. So ALSO Christ glorified NOT himself to be MADE an high priest; but he that said unto him, you are My Son, TODAY have I BEGOTTEN you. (In other words, the SAME day the the Son was BEGOTTEN was the very DAY that God MADE His Son to become His High priest) 

Hebrews 5:6. As he said also in another place, you are a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (And a priest is a mediator BETWEEN God and men)

Hebrews 5:7. Who in the DAYS of his FLESH, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; 

Hebrews 5:8. Though he was a Son, (Speaking of being the HUMAN Son of God, as in, the ADOPTED Son of God, the Son of MAN, Jesus) yet he LEARNED obedience by the things which he suffered; (We are not told very much in the New Testament about Jesus BEFORE he obeyed his God and Father to be baptized and God ANOINTED his human Son with His a measure of His Spirit and SENT him into

the world to preach the gospel of the kingdom. But we are told through the prophecies that God visited the Son of MAN, according to Psalm 8:6. And, according to Isaiah 50:4-11, God visited him morning by morning and TAUGHT him that the Scriptures spoke of him by opening his ear to hear or to understand that he is the Messiah who was prophesied to come. The HUMAN Son of God understand that he must obey the prophecies to give his back to be beaten and that he would have to suffer death. Read the prophecies for yourself)

Hebrews 5:9. And being MADE perfect, he BECAME the author of eternal salvation unto all those that obey him. 

Hebrews 5:10. Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.” 

 

Before the cross and resurrection, the Son of God had NO POWER of his own to do anything except to OBEY his God and Father, according to John 5:19-30. And thus, it was AFTER the cross and resurrection that God highly exalted His human Son and GAVE the risen Son of MAN, Jesus, all power and authority to give eternal life to whomsoever he chooses to be worthy to receive eternal life in the world to come.

So then, DURING the days of his FLESH it was the ANOINTING of the Holy Spirit that empowered the Son of MAN to live without sin. To Almighty God it does not matter what happened BEFORE God ANOINTED him and CALLED him to walk in RIGHTEOUSNESS. And during the ministry of Jesus, it was God DWELLING in him who did the mighty works of healing, according to John 14:10, Acts 10:38, and many other verses of Scripture. Then AFTER the cross and resurrection, it pleased God that the FULNESS of DEITY should dwell in His human Son BODILY. And that is WHEN the human Son of God became a God in the FLESH, a true God FORM THE True God. That is WHEN God gave His EXALTED human Son the Spirit WITHOUT measure.

 

Hebrews 10:5-18. 

 

“Wherefore, when he came into the world, he said, Sacrifice and offering you would not, but (Or MOREOVER) a body have You prepared me: (First of all, notice that this verse does NOT say, I prepared a body for Myself. In other words, Yahweh did NOT prepare a mortal body for Himself to clothe Himself with or to dwell in as the Oneness Pentecostal Christians CLAIM.

So then, to me, this verse is speaking of the new GLORIED IMMORTAL body of the Son of MAN, Jesus. In other words, Yahweh prepared an IMMORTAL divine body FOR the RISEN Son of MAN, Jesus, that will never die again. 

Please CLOSELY consider all of the prophecies of the Old Testament and the fulfillments in the New Testament of the NEW GLORIFIED body promised to the Messiah: Psalm 17:15, Psalm 21:6, Psalm 45:5-8, Psalm 91:14-16, Isaiah 26:19-21, Acts 2:26-28, Hebrews 12:2, 2 Corinthians 5:1,2, 1 Corinthians 15:35-47, 1 Corinthians 15:52-54, and Jesus becoming the FIRSTFRUITS in 1 Corinthians 15:20-28. 

And according to John 14:19, Jesus promised us that because he lives, WE shall live ALSO. For you see, when we see him, WE shall be LIKE him for we shall see him as he is, according to 1 John 3:2. 

And when we are made in the IMAGE of Jesus that does not make us to be Jesus himself. God PROPHESIED saying, Let us make man in OUR image after OUR likeness. 

But first, God needed to make His human Son His FIRSTBORN Son. The Son of MAN, Jesus, is the firstborn among MANY BRETHREN, the FIRSTBORN from the DEAD. That is WHEN the Son of MAN, Jesus, was made to become the FIRSTBORN of every CREATURE. 

In other words, the word “firstborn” of God means the FIRSTFRUITS of God, His NEW CREATION of righteous people. And Jesus is the FIRST faithful and truthful witness, the BEGINNING of God’s NEW creation or NEW creatures)

Hebrews 10:6. In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have had no pleasure. 

Hebrews 10:7. Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the BOOK it is written of me,) to do Your will, O God. (This is HOW the Son of God came into existence. Jesus came into the world as being the FULFILLMENT of Yahweh’s PROPHECIES. Jesus is the WORKMANSHIP of his God and Father Yahweh. Jesus is NOT  a so-called pre-existing God the Son who supposedly BECAME flesh. 

But rather, the Almighty God, who alone in the Father, DWELT in the flesh of His human Son Jesus, according to 2 Corinthians 5:16-21) 

Hebrews 10:8. Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin You would not, neither have pleasure therein, which are offered by the law; 

Hebrews 10:9. Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second. (And, prophetically or symbolically, the taking away of the FIRST to establish the SECOND in speaking of the crucifying the FIRST BODY to establish the SECOND BODY, the TEMPLE of God who is Spirit. 

So again, it is the IMMORTAL body that God PREPARED for His human Son and NOT a physical body for a so-called God the Son to dwell in like Trinitarian Christians CLAIM)

Hebrews 10:10. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. (Now, some Oneness Pentecostal Christians interpret this verse to mean that Almighty God the Father, clothed in the BODY that He prepared for Himself, offered that only the BODY as a sacrifice to Himself.

And to me, that is no SACRIFICE. The TRUTH of the matter is that the Son of MAN, Jesus offered up his LIFE of his own free will. Hebrews 9:14 says that Jesus Christ through the power of the Eternal Spirit dwelling in him offered himself without spot or blemish to his God and Father. And Jesus did that so that WE who believe might receive the PROMISE of eternal life ALSO)

Heb 10:11. And every priest stands daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: 

Hebrews 10:12. But this MAN, AFTER he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; (Now again, to me, the writer of the book of Hebrews did NOT “intend” his words to mean that a so-called God the Son dwelling inside of a BODY that God prepared for him offered up that BODY, which was a CREATION of God as a sacrifice to God. That would NOT be a TRUE sacrifice. But for a MAN to lay down his OWN LIFE of his own free will for the sins of the world is indeed a TRUE SACRIFICE. No greater love that a MAN lay down his LIFE, according to the words of Jesus in John 15:13.

And for his reward, Yahweh RESTORED or ADJUSTED his mortal body to partake of the DIVINE NATURE of IMMORTALITY. For you see, the Greek word “translated” as prepared means to RESTORE, to ADJUST, and to COMPLETE thoroughly. The human Son of God was MADE in the express IMAGE of Yahweh’s person after the cross and resurrection)

Hebrews 10:13. From henceforth expecting TILL his enemies to be made his footstool.” 

 

Notice that verse 13 says TILL or UNTIL his enemies are made his footstool. This means that Jesus will reign over the earth for ONLY 1000 years and then commit the ruling over the earth back into the hands of Almighty God the Father.

For you see, Jesus will reign over the earth only for the FIRST DOMINION, according to Micah 4:6-8, and henceforth after the first dominion Yahweh will reign. You can also read and study 1 Corinthians 15:20-28, Acts 2:35,36, Hebrews 1:13, Hebrews 10:13, Matthew 22:44, and the accounts in the other gospels.

And, to me, that is the true SOUND Biblical meaning of Hebrews 10:5. 

Let us read a few more verses of Scripture to show why Jesus is NOT Almighty God who made him and formed him in the womb of a woman, and why Jesus was a MORTAL MAN born of a woman.

 

James 1:13.  

 

“Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God CANNOT be tempted with evil, neither tempts he any MAN:”

 

And, according to the Son of MAN, Jesus was tempted in all points like we are tempted.

 

Revelation 12:5.  

 

“And she brought forth a MAN child, (or a HUMAN male child) who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child (Speaking of the Son of MAN, Jesus) was caught up unto God, and to His throne.”

 

Revelation 5:1-14. 

 

“And I saw in the right hand of Him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. 

Revelation 5:2. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loosen the seals thereof? 

Revelation 5:3. And no MAN in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. (Why would they even be looking for a MAN to be found WORTHY to open the book if a perfect sinless God the Son died on the cross as some Christians dogmatically demand is the GOSPEL of salvation)

Revelation 5:4. And I wept much, because no MAN was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. 

Revelation 5:5. And one of the elders said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, (The word of PROPHECY fulfilled by God to be made FLESH. Lo, I COME in the volume of the BOOK, a CHILD shall be BORN) has prevailed to open the book, and to loosen the seven seals thereof. 

Revelation 5:6. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, (The Son of MAN who was lifted up on the cross. Notice that it says “a” Lamb first and then THE Lamb in verse 8) having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. 

Revelation 5:7. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne. 

Revelation 5:8. And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, (The now GLORIFIED Son of MAN whom God MADE Lord) having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints. 

Revelation 5:9. And they sung a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: FOR (Or BECAUSE) you were slain, and (You after being MADE the Messiah, Savior, or the SALVATION OF Yahweh because of you obedience to God) have redeemed us to God by your blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation. 

Revelation 5:10. And have made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 

Revelation 5:11. And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands. 

Revelation 5:12. Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to RECEIVE power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing. 

Revelation 5:13. And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto him that sits upon the throne, AND unto the Lamb for ever and ever. (Or more correctly translated, from an AGE to and AGE. For you see, Jesus will reign over the earth only for the FIRST DOMINION, according to Micah 4:6-8, and henceforth after the first dominion Yahweh will reign. You can also read and study 1 Corinthians 15:20-28, Acts 2:35,36, Hebrews 1:13, Hebrews 10:13, Matthew 22:44, and the accounts in the other gospels)

Revelation 5:14. And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshiped Him that lives for ever and ever.”

Now that you have clearly seen that the Bible ITSELF teaches us that God SENT His HUMAN Son into the world, we will take a CLOSER look at the Scriptures the SEEM as if God SENT His pre-existing Son down from heaven into the earth to die for our sins.
