Now, the Revelation 1:1 question. For all who believe in a dual role of God, ERROR. the bible clearly states, 1 Thessalonians 5:21 "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
Let’s examine the record, and prove this thing, "God's duality".
Revelation 1:1 "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and
he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:"
This seems like two persons, (the Father, who gave the Son, Jesus the Christ this Revelation)…. this is what most seems to believe, do it not? But upon closer examination of the supporting scripture, this is not the correct assessment. The angel himself tells us who sent him, Revelation 22:6 "And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and
the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done." so from the angel himself, he tells us who sent him… “The Lord God”. did one notice the title “Lord”, and not “LORD”, all caps. I have had scholars with degrees tell me that this is Jehovah or Yahweh, meaning the “Father” who sent “HIS” angel to John. Even the Jehovah witness, in their own bible, they have it God the Father as the Name Jehovah in place of the Lord God.
Well they and many others are NO Witness of God, for God himself tell us directly, by using his own Name, who sent “HIS” angel to John. Let’s see it plainly. Revelation 22:16 "
I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."
BINGO, “I Jesus”……. sent “MY” angel. Well, well, well, that just put a crimp in Psalms 110:1…. and it is clear that it is the "Lord" Jesus who is God, not Jehovah, or any other hover.
now with that said, one might need to look at Isaiah 48:16 again, "Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now
the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me." ....
So no, Revelation 1:1 is no dual … “ROLE” of God. It’s the only, and the same person “diversified”, or “SHARED” in flesh and bone. BINGO.
