Default Re: The Trinity Thread (To be a merged thread)

Excellent post Boxy! Very cogent and succinct. Maybe your best ever on this thread.

I have another question for you. (It seems on only have time these days for questions and not engaging in long, drawn out arguments...please work with me here!) Once again, it is a sincere question, and it certainly is not meant to be leading or anything like that. I do think it is a question that folks like you would do well to take seriously, so please feel free to take some time and get back to me at your earliest convenience.

Question: What was this glory that the Lord Jesus shared with the Father before the world began?

And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed. John 17:5 ESV
καὶ νῦν δόξασόν με σύ πάτερ παρὰ σεαυτῷ τῇ δόξῃ ᾗ εἶχον πρὸ τοῦ τὸν κόσμον εἶναι παρὰ σοί

***The question assumes that the Lord Jesus did in fact exist "before the world began", so if you have to, you can also include your interpretation about this aspect as well, but please keep the main focus on the question at hand. Thanks!***
