    OK. All those verses say Jesus is God. I'm not arguing that point. But none of those verses explain who the God and Father of God is...

    Amen to that! So long as we confess Jesus as our Lord and believe God raised him from the dead, we are saved. Rom 10:9-10, 9 because...

    Where have I denied the Deity of Christ or the trinity? My goal was to see if anyone knows who the God and Father of God is. I trust...

    Rich R replied to the thread Who is God's God?.
    There is another option. Maybe Jesus didn't call himself God because he didn't think he was God? If that is the case, then the verses I...

    The scripture I quoted in the OP are not a pipe dream. They are the words of God and the say with no ambiguity whatsoever that Jesus has...

    Very true. Good verses, but they don't say who God's God and Father is which is the subject of the OP.

    I am quite familiar with the history of Judaism and Christianity, enough to see that John's gospel, far from incorporating Gnosticism...

    Rich R replied to the thread Who is God's God?.

    And yet Jesus prayed, "...that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3 The word...

    Rich R replied to the thread Who is God's God?.
    That could be, but God keeping His God and Father a secret seems pretty extreme. But then I suppose a case could be made for God being...

    Do you think having the rank of God is the same as actually being God? Just saying there is no one higher on the totem pole than God...

    Do you mean God doesn't want us (and Satan) to know who His God is?
  • Rich R
    Rich R replied to the thread Who is God's God?.
    A case could certainly be made for that as far as why Jesus said he had a God and a Father, although I don't see a clear scripture...

    Rich R replied to the thread Who is God's God?.
    I see what you're saying now. The Jews of that time equated "the word of God" with God Himself. That has a huge impact on the meaning...
