Lord isnt gods title. Its a person of authority. So, both jesus and god are "both" named lord not because they are each other but because they are authority to christian salvation: father--Truth. Son the represention of that truth.
You missed my whole point. According to 1 Cor. 8:6 there is only
one God the Father and
one Lord: Jesus. Jehovah's Witnesses have TWO gods. The God and the (lowercase) god logos. Isn't that contradictory of the scriptures? And furthermore they have TWO lords. The "Lord God" and the "lord(lower case again) Jesus". So, why do they contradict the faithful doctrine in the Bible? (Ephesians 4:4-6, 1 Corinthians 8:6)
In other words, the Father's Words and Christ are one and the same (word made flesh). Since the Father is not his dictations, he cannot be christ and christ cannot be god. The union they both share and christ spirit is what builds the trinity. Once you say jesus is god by calling him lord, master, and messiah it ignores the context of the first two and the last Messiaha are usually human not gods.
I'm not a trinitarian though. I believe in one God; the Father who is manifest in the Son of God.
Trinitarians on the other hand believe in "three co-equal persons, God the Father, God the Son and God the holy Spirit". That is not what I believe.
The Word was made flesh but what about His Spirit within His human body? This was the holy Spirit indwelling human flesh.
I understand why trinitarians say jesus is god. However, I think thats a poor expression of jesus's divinity. Unless jesus is the creator, which by itself in all other abrahamic religions is propostreous, a trinitarian would more correctly say that jesus's relationship to the father is his "shared" identity, that which being the creator's laws (of Moses) not of jesus, nor from jesus, nor as jesus, but through jesus.
You're talking about the hypostasis. I'm talking about Jesus as a person rather than His human or Divine natures. Yes He is fully human and fully God. I understand all that.
What I'm talking about is revelations. So you begin by understanding Jesus is a prophet. (John 9:17) Then the Son of God. (John 9:35-38) And then maybe God (John 20:28) But finally if Jesus shows the Father's identity to you then you'll see He is the Father manifest. (Matthew 11:27, Luke 10:22, John 14:8-9) Just as He showed His disciples this mystery when they asked Him "Lord, show us the Father and it suffices us."
How many Christians have asked Jesus in prayer to show who the Father is?
