No man has seen the Father at any time. The only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him!
Some people have figments of creative imagination gone wild when it comes to revealling their views concerning the Godhead. One such figment of imagination, oftentimes repeated, resembles the following presentation.
Supposedly, there was a meeting in Heaven where three persons sat at a table. One might compare the setting to some sort of a meeting of the minds. The three person are the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Well, apparently, the three persons arrived at a point of decision, seemingly that the Son Person would come to planet earth and die at Calvary.
At this point, one can only surmise that the author(s) of the above noted example have not read the scriptures. In fact, enough of this unscriptural anti-Christ gospel. This is not the reality of the Godhead as presented in the scriptures and yet, so many are willing to allow our true gospel message to be hid, even from them that are lost.
Still, Jesus is the Word of God and the Word of God is the Word of God! It is not a separate and distinct person from God. Neither is God three minds. Indeed, God has made all things after the counsel of His own mind.
Note what the scriptures state - If any man preach any other gospel to you other than that which I have preached to you let them be accursed. The above example is proof of "another gospel" being presented to the people. It is certainly not the message in the Bible. And likewise, it is not Paul's delivery of the Gospel that came about through/by revelation! Indeed, Paul received not the gospel by man, nor was he taught it by man. Paul received his understanding of who God was by revelation ... from Jesus. Does this explain why Jesus had said that Paul was a chosen vessel - chosen to bear His name among the nations.
This is why it is so important for believers to read the New Testament. Therein they will discover that "My Word is Spirit and it is truth." Jesus brought to us His own counselled mindset which at the end of the day confirms that the Word of God is forever settled in Heaven. God confirmed His Word and no preacher or priest or rabbi or minister or anyone else speaking in a religious capacity, regardless of how seemingly authoritative they may speak is capable of negating that which God spoke and confirmed within the scriptures!
Peace to all who by the grace and mercy of God endeavour to continue steadfastly in the Word which was delivered by the Holy Spirit of the One God Jesus, through the mouths of those His chosen witnesses, even to the uttermost parts of the earth! Peace to all in Jesus - the one and only God!
