Isaiah 63:5 "And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me."
Isa 63:
[
1] Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
[
2] Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments
like him that treadeth in the winefat?
[
3] I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
[
4] For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
[
5] And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
the question is what or "WHO" is God's ... "OWN" ARM?
No. The Question is WHO is Gods Son.
The "I" in Isa 63:5 is the same "I" in Isa 63:1, who comes from Edom, and those "LIKE him."
Are you unfamiliar with Edom?
Gods Word did not come from Edom.
metaphorically speaking, God "OWN" ARM is his POWER, (God himself). so the words that came out of God's mouth is not the Son, (but God himself, the ordinal First). for the scriptures states that the Son, the ordinal Last eminated from the Spirit who is the Holy Spirit that we call "GOD". supportive scripture,
I do not require a metaphor to TO improperly conclude who is being spoken of.
Esau the Edomite was full of fury, intent to Claim a Birth right (of his father's possessions) he no longer was entitled to possess, and even Jewish documents claim, at Jacobs burial, Esau was further enraged Jacob was being buried with his fathers.
It is Esau's jealousy of Jacob that enraged Esau. Keep reading Isa 63:1...learn how his own anger was making him an enemy of God.
Learn how no one was colluding with Esau's Anger. Learn how an angel directed Esau to reflected on Moses' teaching...Learn how Esau relented and became reconciled with God.
Isa 63:
[
12] That led them
by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm ...
And Esau thereafter became reconciled with God.
Follow the Fact to arrive at the Truth.
John 16:28 "I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father."
Not the question. Nor in Dispute.
which clearly means that which came from God is "Spirit". so that which was mad flesh is no thought, but spirit itself. to prove this, Philippians 2:6 "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:". here the "FORM" of God is NATURE, and God's NATURE is Spirit, for God is a Spirit. so no the Lord Jesus is no thought nor a word out of God's MOUTH.
Disagree with your understanding.
Your word out of your mouth is an express revealing of You in a verbal method.
Gods WORD out of His Mouth is an Express revealing of God in a verbal method.
Gods Sent His WORD forth out of His Mouth in a Body God Prepared.
That Body had the EXPRESS Ability to Speak Gods WORD.
That Body men were Told to Call by the Name JESUS, as God Himself Named that Body.
That Body was Manifested ON Earth (appeared and was Seen by men)...precisely according To Gods Will.
That Body was Revealed...as A Faithful, Humble Servant of God.
That Body was Revealed..."without Reputation"...For nearly 30 years!
You should have followed the Order and Discovered...When and How that Body's Reputation...Came to that Body...
Why you think ANY of Isa 63 has to do with me...is just your imagination.
I have never seen your testimony, that would reveal that would apply to you.
Nothing in that Text remotely indicates WHO the Son Is....which was precisely the question.
clearly he is "Spirit", and there is only "ONE" Spirit, and the Lord Jesus the ordinal Last is "EQUAL" with, not equal to, but EQUAL "WITH", meaning the SAME Person. and this is where "diversity" come in at...... (one might want to look into what Phil 2:6 is saying).
Clearly the Son was Not Revealed in the OT.
Clearly the Fortelling of the Word of God was to come forth out from Gods mouth and BE SENT to Where God Sends His Word.
Isa 55:11
Multiple Scriptures Reveal Gods Word, God Named Jesus. God and His Word are one in the Same. God Purposed IN Himself to reveal His Own Word to the World. Gods Word was Revealed in a Flesh Body God Prepared. Gods Word was Sent as a Humble Servant, without Reputation. The Moment The Body of Jesus was Revealed "having His Reputation Sent down from Heaven TO Earth"...was the Moment men Saw and Heard...
Luke 3
[
22] And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
If you have NOT read and studied the NT, you may not Know "the Reputation" JESUS was sent to Earth "WITHOUT" ... WAS Sent To JESUS at about AGE 30...and His Reputation Revealed...IS: HE IS the Christ.
And further reading and Study Reveals Christ IS the Power of God. And the Power of God IS Gods Holy Spirit.
so we suggest you look back over your assessment, concering the Lord Jesus as simply as words out of his "own" mouth. for this is why I brought Isaiah 63:5 to your attention.
You can suggest all day long. Your suggestion Conflicts with Scripture.
God foretold His Word would come forth out of His Mouth. Scripture Verifies Gods Word did come forth out of His Mouth, in the Likeness as a man's Body God Prepared and was Manifest (Seen and Heard by men).
Jesus Himself testified ... He came forth out from God.
John 16:
[
27] ...
I came out from God.
[
28] ...
I came forth from the Father,
I have no clue how You concluded Jesus Christ IS God...by reading Isaiah 63.
Jesus' Name was not revealed in the OT.
Jesus being the Word of God was not revealed in the OT.
The Word of God, Jesus, was not Revealed in the OT He is Christ and The Power of God, who IS Spirit.
You muddy the Understanding of OT Truth ...
When you try to present OT text ... with Knowledge YOU "later received"...but that OT men DID NOT have.
Men of The Tribes of ISRAEL were to be the Beacon Leaders and Teachers To Gentile's to Lead Gentile's To God...instead many of Them were Walking away from God and mimicking Gentiles...you shoul have read All of Isa. 63...and learned One way God was reigning in those out of ISRAEL who were consumed with anger and hate for their own brother...(Esau an Edomite...enemies of his Brother Jacob and his clan).
remember this is a discussion, no put down ok, just asking you to reevaluate your assessment of "WHO IS THE SON".
Totally disagree with you Isaiah 63: is Key to understanding Jesus is the Son of God....and told you Why.
NT Scripture PLAINLY tells the Reader...
The Word of God was sent forth out from God To Earth. That the Word of God is With God, IS God, And called by the Name Jesus.
Thereafter approx 30 years of Gods Word, Jesus ON Earth...the Word of God, was Then revealed to Be Christ...who IS the Power of God.
1 Cor 1:
[
24] ...
Christ the power of God...
How you learned Understanding from Isa 63:..About Knowledge that had not yet been revealed is not agreeable to me.
Even the NT reveals ... He "shall be Called, the Son of God"...which falls in line with other Texts...
He was called Jesus, Lord, Teacher for 30 yrs Before it was Revealed He IS the Christ...and thereafter "Called the Son of God,"
BY those Who Trust to Believe.
And if you read Scriptures you will find Many WHO did NOT Believe...and did not Confess belief...but rather Grilled Him....
Are you the Son of God, are you the Christ...huh? huh? huh? Are you? Are you? Are you?.
I have Expressly stated my beliefs ... If you do Not Agree with my beliefs...challenge that.
But don't bring up some Obscure OT Text that has nothing to Do with the Topic or my claims and Try to create an unfounded dispute.
If you think Isa 63 has given you understanding of Christ Jesus being the Holy Spirit...that's you.
Isa 63 says nothing about Who the Son of God IS...which was the Question.
Glory to God,
Taken
