Hi Chuck,
in 1Tim. 2:5, the Peshitta reads: For there is one God, and one mediator between
God and men, the man Jesus Christ
That is so very clear, on one hand God and on the other hand the man Yeshua!
Nothing else is Shaul saying in 1 Corinthians:
Therefore I want you to understand that no man
speaking by the Spirit of God calls Yeshua accursed;
and that no man can say that Yeshua is the LORD but
by the Holy Spirit.
Yeshua is our Lord (Master) not our God!
But the problem will always be, you will find something which supports your point of view,
and i will find something which supports my point of view!
From my point of view you have to look at the NT with the eyes of the Tanakh and not the other way around!
What does it mean to be the Messiah? This is an jewish concept! How did the jews understand that in the time of Yeshua?
What does it mean "the word became flesh" in the context of the Tanakh? John starts with the same word like the Genesis!
The word is "Bereshit", so there is a connection between both and you have to view everything in that context!
What is the "word"?
You see if we want to go deeper here, we have to clear all this questions!
The peace of our Lord and Messiah Yeshua be with you!
