  • Your conclusion is eisegetical, not exegetical. You introduce a bogus, irrelevant term "consubstantial" and all of the ecclesiastic baggage of that in your "conclusion" in complete opposition to the text itself. You leap from a "figure" and a "reflection" to identity with no justification at all. -1 Commented Jul 11, 2019 at 13:10
  • Eternally begotten is a man made doctrine and does not align with the definition of the word begotten, nor what scripture says about the One God. Jesus inherited a kingdom and was glorified. When did that happen in eternity? So many problems with this concept but its necessary to keep the triune theory going. Wisdom is not a person. Logos is not a person. They are a quality of God the Father. If these concepts were personified we'd have 2 eternal gods....And that goes against our master's most important commandment. Ears to hear beloved.

  • Not the place for debate, but Jews actually did have a concept of duality within God they even called the Logos the "second God." That's even further than we go in saying Christ is God's eternal Son. Which Scripture says. The Logos is identified directly as Christ, and so is most definitely a person.
