[Sons to Glory!]

Oh what to believe!? So many verses showing that Jesus was subservient to and distinct from the Father. Oh wait, there's also so many verse showing He was God in the flesh! What ever shall we do!!?? Get out the scissors and start removing all those verses that don't line up perfectly!

We'd like to wrap our minds completely around these two, seemingly diametrically opposed sets of scripture describing who the Lord Jesus is, yet it is impossible for our minds to do so! Therefore I must once more quote John Locke, "I cannot fathom the mystery of a single flower; Neither was it intended that I should." (i.e., if we can't get our minds around the awesomeness of a flower, how can we possibly come to grasp the exact nature of God come in the flesh?)

May He shine light into our humble minds bros.
