Does God beget ?

Jocko wrote:    BMZ,    I know. I know, Jocko. You are slowly taking us to show that the Father also went through circumcision to feel the pain of the cut and shed own blood.  We will then be told that circumcision was ordered as a punishment because Sarah did not believe and allowed Abraham to go into Hagar when she gave him Hagar as a wife. Sarah was supposed to have trusted God but she did not listen and daddy Abraham paid the penalty and all of us, including Jesus, have suffered the cut. Why defend circumcision, when you don't do it while Jesus himself had it? =======================================       You don't have a clue where I was going with the matter of circumcision.

Of course not. I just imagined a scenario, Jocko. Please carry on. Make it short, please.

============================

And when do you think God will beget daughters?  Surely, Angel deserves to be begotten by God?

=================================

  The phrase "sons and daughters to Me" can be found in Paul's epistle of Second Corinthians.

  "And I will be a Father to you, and you will be sons and daughters to Me, says the Lord Almighty" (2 Cor.6:18)

  Paul is quoting in combination Hosea 1:10 and Isaiah 43:6.

  Don't you just want to read the New Testament now for yourself at least once through before you leave this earth?

  Sons, in the New Testament salvation sense, does not indicate males, in the matter of divine sonship. It refers to having the Holy Spirit as our life from God, Sons refer to sharing the life of God, not to male sex.

How can an angel be an atheist, Jasper?

  Christ means the office or the appointment. The Anointed one is the Christ. It discribes the office, the appointment of the Person.

  Jesus, the Christ is simply Jesus the Anointed One.

  Sometimes the Bible speaks of the office of the Anointed One or the Christ in terms of time before the man Jesus was born.

  I cannot think of any verse speaking of Jesus before the birth of that baby in Bethlehem.

  God knows our hearts. And He is not confused when we say that we love Jesus Christ, or we love Christ Jesus, or we believe in the Christ, or we worship Jesus the Christ, etc. He knows what we mean.

 So we should not be too concerned with this. We have in the New Testament these equivilant titles:

 1.) "The Spirit of God"   (Rom. 8:9)

  2.) "The Spirit of Christ"   (Rom. 8:9)

  3.) "The Spirit of Jesus Christ" (Phil. 1:19)

  4.) "The Spirit of Jesus"  (Acts 16:7)

  5.) "The Spirit of the One Who raised Jesus from the dead" (Rom. 8:11)

  6.) And lastly the Spirit designated simply as "Christ".  (Rom. 8:10)

   There are perhaps about another fifty to seventy descriptions of this Spirit. I will not name them all now. But since He is so bountiful and rich there is the expression  "the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ" (Phil. 1:19).

  The emphasis there being that He is to supply us, to furnish us, to equip us with all that we need.

 With all this help no wonder He is a Comforter.
