What is nonsense is your post. Kindly note that it is pretty numb to draw a conclusion that because a particular passage says God was sitting on His throne handing a scroll to Jesus (who was not on said throne but standing in the middle of those around it) it means "God is confined to His throne" <shakes head>
From Rev 5:
6 And I saw [g]between the throne (with the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth. 7 And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.
Original point is this: There is God and God's throne and God is sitting there and then there is Jesus NOT on God's throne at the exact same point in time standing there. Is that clear enough? There is no silly logic that can explain why God has to "split himself in two" to hand a scroll to another part of himself but it sure is entertaining to hear you folks explain these very clear depictions of God's place and Jesus' place away.
There were two other examples of this that were previously shared. Please do not "confine" God based on those examples either. <re-shakes head> WOW |
...Don't you understand that God can manifest himself as Jesus and the Father at the same time. The one true God is a spirit. We won't see him. We can't. We can only see what he manifests himself as. So yes, God was on the throne, yes God took the scroll out of Gods hand.
I don't get why the oneness believers are having trouble explaining that portion of their doctrine to you. It's kinda sad because their doctrine was built to explain such instances.
It's not that I agree with them, but you simply saying look here's Jesus and here's God beside him and they are interacting... that doesn't disprove their doctrine.
