Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Solemn Reasons for Believing That God Is One: And for Withholding Assent to the Proposition That God Is There I use terms literally, when I say God is One Being; One Person; One Agent; One Spirit, infinitely great and good. Each individual man is conscious that he is one. And if he were asked in what sense he is one; he would justly suspect that the querist had some sly intention to entangle him. When God says that He is One; the man without guile supposes that God is one, as he is one: one conscious being. And so I understand that God is one. I remark that God Supreme is meant: He who was before the world; before man; before the created soul and body of the man Christ Jesus: the Unchangeable Divinity, from everlasting to everlasting. It is the custom as well of scripture, as of heathen writers, to give the name God to every being which is made the object of religious worship: whether it be superior or inferior; whether it be one or many. And the word Lord, is used with meanings still more various and diminutive. There be Gods many, and Lords many: but to us, there is but one God, the Father. I. Cor. viii.5. The Father is God Supreme. This one God, is the Father of angels and of men; and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the Great Creator; the King Immortal and Invisible; the unlimited and indivisible Jehovah. He is unbegotten, unborn, unoriginated, independent, everlasting. This God is united to the man Christ Jesus: and is the divinity of Christ. Otherwise he has no divinity. For there is no other reigning divinity in the universe. All others are fabulous. The head of Christ is God. I. Cor.ii. 3.(Appendix A.) To us there is but one God, the Father: and one Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus means Saviour. But Jesus was a proper name among the Jews.
