Different ministries of our Lord Jesus are brought forth. Please allow me to illustrate.
Mat 1:23 . . they shall call his name (Jesus) Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
The scriptures tell us Yeshua would also be called Emmanuel, meaning "God with us," or more correctly, "El with us." As a result, people teach that Yeshua is "God." This name is to be understood in the light of
Acts 10:38;
"How God [El] anointed Yeshua of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God [El] was with him."
2 Corinthians 5:19 To wit, that God was in Messiah, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and has committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Not that Yeshua was El, but that El was with and in Yeshua. If you choose to use the logic of those in error, then consider the name Jehu. In Hebrew, this name means "He is Yah" or "Yah is He." Does that mean the man Jehu is, in reality, Yahweh?
I would like your opinion as to who you think John the Baptist the Baptist came announcing in Mat 3:3 . . The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord (Wasn’t this Jesus?), make His paths straight. Isn’t this the same Jesus being announced in Isa 40:3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD (Jehovah), make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Isaiah 40:3 and
Matthew 3:3 are often used to prove Yahweh is Yeshua.
Isaiah 40:3 reads;
"The voice of him that cries in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of YHWH, make straight in the desert a highway for our Elohim."
Of all the N.T. verses that quote Isaiah, Luke 3:4-6 aids our understanding because it includes
Isaiah 40:4-
5. It says;
"As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of YHWH, make his paths straight. Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth; And all flesh shall see the salvation of YHWH."
"Prepare you the way of YHWH" does not mean, "Move out of the way because YHWH is coming." And so when Yeshua comes they believe he is YHWH.
How was "the way" to be prepared? By filling valleys, leveling mountains, straightening paths, etc. This work is not to be understood literally, but spiritually through the humbling of those in exalted positions and the restoration of truth. Who was to do that work?
John 4:34 says, "Yeshua said unto them, My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish his work." Almighty YHWH appointed His Son Yeshua to finish His work. Yeshua was YHWH's instrument in the accomplishment of His great plan. Yeshua is the "Messenger of the Covenant," "the servant of YHWH," and "the salvation of YHWH."
John 14:6 calls Yeshua "the way." He is "the way of YHWH;" the means through which YHWH will finish His work.
Php 2:6 Who (Jesus), being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation . . Will Jesus ever be equal with our Father again?
Even when Jesus takes His own throne given Him (Rev 4:2) by our Father, 1Co 15:28 says: And when all things shall be subdued unto Him (Jesus), then shall the Son also himself be subject unto Him (Our Father) that put all things under Him (Jesus), that God may be all in all.
He was never equal with the Father in the first place. Other versions correct the KJV of Php 2:6. Here are just a few of them.
Php 2:6 who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped, ASV
Php 2:6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, ESV
Php 2:6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, NASB
As 1 Corinthians 15:26-28 shows, once death is abolished, the false trinity doctrine will no longer exist whereby three co-equal persons comprise the one God. YHWH, the Father, will be the Supreme ruler of the universe and His Son Yeshua will be second in command in subjection to YHWH.
