If God was in Christ And God was Christ, then God was in God.

This also robs Jesus of his individuality and his true humanity.

Why the big deal?


Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.


I fear the possibility of being a lying antichrist by combining the 2 into 1 person.

And this?....


12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

You are still not answering my question.
Why do you interpret the two phrases differently?
In one instance you say they mean two and in the other one.
The phrases are worded the same.

I believe:
God was manifest in the flesh.
God was justified in the Spirit.
God was seen of angels.
God preached unto the Gentiles.
God was believed on in the world.
God was received up into glory.

Hope that doesn’t make me a lying antiChrist.

No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.



19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.



Right, God, was inside Jesus in 1 Tim 3:16.

16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God(Father) was manifest(revealed) in(inside) the flesh(Jesus), justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.


Not....


16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest INTO/AS the flesh of Jesus, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

According to context, I answer you.

You took 2 verses to make a blanket statement for explaining all of my verses I am posting.

Yet, you dont post my verses and reexplain them as 'one person' as I am asking.

Why?
