That's true for a change but if "saw" cannot be physical observation with the eyes then the man Yeshua is not the Logos or the only begotten Elohim who has declared the Father. No one has seen Elohim at any time therefore means that no one has seen a physical manifestation of Elohim, whether speaking of the Father, or whether speaking of the only begotten Elohim which is the Son. That is the error of both Trinitarianism and the so-called Oneness and similar doctrines: making a man into an Elohim "God-Man".
Making bold emphatic statements with no scripture to support your bold emphatic decrees only reveals more and more, every time you do it, that you are deceived and throwing a tantrum like a child when you do not get to have your way. In the real world Johnny Rotten does not get an "A" for spreading his feces all over the classroom walls, (even if it is art class). :chuckle:
I do accept John but as already stated Yeshua declares that he is neither the Logos nor the Judge in that very same Gospel account. Therefore it is you who does not accept John even though you claim that you do. If the man Yeshua is not the Logos then your understanding of John 1:1 suffers catastrophic failure. This also was already referenced in the link to the thread that was provided at the beginning of this particular topic of discussion and has likewise been posted at least four or five times in different places in this board, (maybe even in this very lengthy thread but I would have to search it).
Here it is without the quote box so that it will show up if someone quotes this post:
Here is the perfect, (systematic), logic taken straight from the Testimony of Yeshua himself in the very same Gospel account which so many use to supposedly prove that the man Yeshua or Jesus is "God Almighty born into human flesh" as they say. But when we take certain key statements of the Master himself, as follows, the error of Trinity is clearly exposed by the Testimony of Yeshua himself. The first key statement is that Yeshua says his words are SPIRIT, and even this should be enough to fully support what I have said, but if you follow the logic laid out in sequence from the statements below there is absolutely no denying the outcome of these clear emphatic statements.
The words of Yeshua are Spirit:
John 6:62-63
62 What then if you should behold the Son of Man ascending up [to] where he was before?
63 It is the Spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are Spirit, and they are Life.
The Father judges no one but has committed all judgment to the Son:
John 5:22
22. For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment unto the Son:
The man Yeshua also states that he himself judges no one:
John 8:15
15. You judge after the flesh: I judge no one.
There is only one who judges and he is the Seeker and the Judge:
John 8:50
50. And I seek not mine own glory: one there is, the Seeker and Judge. [Rev 2:23]
The Memra-Logos-Word which the man Yeshua speaks is not his own:
John 14:24
24. He that loves me not, keeps not my sayings: and the Logos-Word which you hear is not of me, but-contrariwise [it is] of the Father who sent me.
The Memra-Logos-Word is the Seeker and the Judge:
John 12:47-48
47. And if anyone hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but that the world might be delivered.
48. He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges him: the Logos-Word that I have spoken, that one shall judge him in the last day.
Revelation 19:11-16
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no one knew but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Logos-Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
The Son of Elohim and Son of Man is the Memra-Logos-Word who descended from the heavens in pneumatikos-spiritual somatiko-bodily form of a dove and abode-remained upon-within the man Yeshua throughout his ministry and Golgotha. No one has seen Elohim at any time because spoken word cannot be seen with the eyes of the flesh. The "new covenant" new Spirit, (Ezekiel 11:19, 18:31, 36:26), is therefore the most holy Word of the Testimony of Yeshua. Anyone claiming to have "the Holy Spirit" but not having and upholding the Testimony of Yeshua in uprightness is therefore deceived.
So essentially what you have said to me, Rosenritter, is that the doctrine of the Master Teacher Yeshua is, "just dumb". Tisk, tisk. :chuckle:
