225: Official creed of the Wesleyan Church
The Wesleyan Church is an evangelical, Protestant, holiness denomination organized to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ. The technical name for our church's theological heritage is Arminian-Wesleyan. This refers to the teachings of James Arminius and John Wesley. Arminius (1560-1609), a Dutch theologian, stressed that God has predestined all who believe in Jesus Christ for eternal life and those who reject Him for eternal separation from God; that He has given us as human beings true freedom to accept or reject this salvation; that He offers ... Both in the Old and New Testaments life is offered to mankind ultimately through Christ, who is the only Mediator between God and man. The New Testament teaches Christians how to fulfill the moral principles of the Old Testament, calling for loving obedience to God made possible by the indwelling presence of His Holy Spirit. The canonical books of the Old Testament are: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, ... ...

226: Trinity proof texts: Genesis 19:24
Third, you have Genesis 19:24 that has two distinct Yahweh's: One on earth and one in heaven. "Then Yahweh [on earth in human form] rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Yahweh [in spirit form in heaven] out of heaven. Genesis 19:24. Although the unanimous opinion of the apostolic Fathers was that this was Jesus talking to Abraham, such is a guess and not specifically known by scripture. The unanimous opinion of the apostolic Fathers was that this was Jesus talking to Abraham, in Genesis 18. In this story, Abraham meets God (Jesus) and the two angels. Jesus came right out and said He was the one who talked to Abraham. This is what Jesus meant when He said, "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

228: Who Do You Think Jesus Is?
Others, that He was a powerful religious leader or an influential social reformer. A few might even deny that He ever existed. The Lord conducted His own poll by asking his followers, "Who does the public say that I am" (Luke 9:18)? Not surprisingly, Jesus got a wide range of answers. But Jesus was most interested in what His followers thought so He next asked, "But who do you say that I am?" So we begin this lesson by asking you the reader,"Who do you think Jesus is"? Jesus (God the son) has existed from eternity with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. John 1:1,14 says, "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God...and the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory." Jesus made reference to his pre-earth existence, "Father, glorify Me with the glory I had with thee before the world was" (John 17:5). Right now Jesus is in heaven with the Father just as He was before creation. No ... ...

230: Trinity proof texts: John 1:1
Jesus as a lessor class of being, and we, defining the two occurrences of God identically, as an equal class of being! Our position is irrefutably solid and the only consistent one. We do give honourable mention to the Modalists, (United Pentecostal church International, UPCI), for they like we, do define God identically in its two occurrences in John 1:1. However, they define God as a personal proper noun/name for the same person, thus they want to read into the passage that Jesus is the same person as the Father. This does incredible damage to the distinction of God, so vividly seen in many passages like the baptism of Jesus. We merely ask Modalists: "Who was Jesus praying to? Himself?" Their answer is, that the human half of Jesus was praying to the divine half. So although we give them a gold star for consistency, do fail to win the prize. Jehovah's Witnesses don't even get a gold star! Arians (JW's) and some well meaning Trinitarians mistakenly translate it "and the word was ... ...

245: Is Jesus Christ, God's only true Son?
Muhammad did not claim to be Allah; Buddha did not claim to be Brahma; Socrates did not claim to be Zeus; Moses did not claim to be Jehovah. Only Christ claimed to be divine, to be one with the Father who sent him (John 10:30). Christ claimed to have a unique relationship with God. He did not permit the observation that he was only a son of God, one child among many. He was the son of God, the only begotten son, unique, extraordinary, one of a kind! Even as a lad of twelve in the temple, he was about his heavenly Father's business (Luke 2:49). He said that he and his Father were one (John 10:30). Probably the boldest assertion Christ ever made about his divinity was to the Jews in John 8:56-59. When Jesus remarked that Abraham rejoiced to see his day, the Jews retorted: "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?".

... It is John's gospel that suggests the idea of equality between Jesus and God ("I and the Father are one"; 10.30). The Gospel starts with the affirmation that in the beginning Jesus as Word (see Logos) "was with God and . . . was God" (i.i), and ends (chap. 21 is most likely a later addition) with Thomas's confession of faith to Jesus, "My Lord and my God!" (20.28). The Fourth Gospel also elaborates on the role of the Holy Spirit as the Paraclete sent to be an advocate for the believers (John 14.1526). For the community of John's gospel, these passages provide assurance of the presence and power of God both in the ministry of Jesus and in the ongoing life of the community. Beyond this immediate context, however, such references raise the question of how Father, Son, and Spirit can be distinct and yet the same. This issue is debated over the following centuries and is only resolved by agreement and exclusion during the christological disputes and creedal councils of the fourth century ... ...

The Messiah therefore traced his lineage, not from David, but from all past eternity, being like God himself, has always existed and timeless! No Jew would every apply this language to a created angel! Comments: The text is so clear that ... They then interpret Mic 5:2 "His goings forth [4163 mowtsa'ah] are from long ago, From the days of eternity." to mean that Jesus existed as an idea in the mind of God before creation. Such views are easily refuted through a simple study of the incarnation and pre-existence passages of Jesus! For example, John was 6 months older by conception than Jesus yet John said, "he existed ... ...
