Name of God

 


Jesus we believe, you and the Father is One God

   Lord, when you said you are Son of God they tried to kill you. He answer to them was, ‘My Father still goes on working, and I am at work, too.’ But that only made Jews even more intent on killing him, because not only was breaking the Sabbath, but he spoke of God as his own Father and so made himself God’s equal. Here Jesus said God is "My Father". Jesus and Father is doing the Heavenly mysterious work together for His own creation. This made the Jews got angry towards Jesus and they made up their mind to kill him. He again said, whatever the Father do he does also, this means Jesus and Father is One and cannot be separated. When we honor the Son,  we honor the Father too, this is the way the unity of God the Father and God the Son is an inseparable dignity. When Jesus said he and the Father is One God and Jews got angry because of this: Jesus answered ‘To this Jesus replied: In all truth I tell you, by himself the Son can do nothing: and whatever the Father does the Son does too. For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything he himself does, and he will show him even greater things than these, works that will astonish you. Thus, as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so the Son gives life to anyone he chooses; for the Father judges no one; he has entrusted all judgements to the Son, so that all may honour Son as they honour the Father. Whoever refuses honour to the Son refuses honour to the Father who sent him? In all truth I tell you, whoever listens to my words, and believes in the one who sent me, has eternal life…’(Jon. 5:17-24)’ Whatever Father do, the Son also does and Jesus doesn’t do any thing of his own but he do always the Father’s will. Father entrusted all the judgements to the Son, Jesus Christ. Whoever refuses to honor the Son, refuses the Father and they never believe in God. Those who disrespect the One God; the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit would be perished and they will not enter eternal life.
