Anti-Trinity Proof Texts Refuted: Galatians 4:14 ... In the functional sense of "messenger," we certainly agree that Jesus can be called ANNGELOS. However, we must not equivocate from that truth and then argue that this warrants referring to Jesus as an "angel" in the ontological sense of a created spirit being.
