A Jewish understanding of the law of agency is expressed in the dictum: “A person’s agent is regarded as the person himself.” God appointed Jesus the Messiah as His agent. As such anything he does is regarded as though the Almighty Himself did it. One trusts the principal in trusting the agent.

Divine Agency in the Scriptures: by David Burge

notion of principal and agency helps us to understand why if you do not honor the Son, you do not honor the Father (John 5:23; 15:23). By refusing to honor and love the agent you are refusing to honor and love the principal. We see in Jesus a perfect reflection of his principal. He who has seen and heard Jesus has seen and heard the Father (John 14:9, 10; 10:38). And remember that people should be able to see God and Jesus in you, since Christians are also God’s agents to bear the saving Gospel of the Kingdom to others. https://www.ministersnewcovenant.org/uploads/9/1/6/1/9161032/divine_agency_in_the_scriptures_pdf.pdf

Just a really quick hi, and a brief touch on agency, which I will be covering heavier in upcoming podcasts. Click here and read about AGENCY. https://www.amiyisrael.org/articles/Shaliah/Shaliah_theSentOne.htm

It’s been awhile

Many Trinitarians claim that the final sentence in the verse, “This is the true God,” refers to Jesus Christ. Is this true? Find out in today’s podcast

In this podcast, I get into the Greek word “Epanadiplosis,” and why it’s important when looking at scripture. More info can be found here: https://www.studylight.org/lexicons/eng/bullinger/e/epanadiplosis-or-encircling.html

Like Satan, Trinitarians love to destroy the role of the Father. Now, instead of the Father raising Jesus from the dead, A Trinitarian will tell you all 3 persons of the trinity raised Jesus. This is easily proven to be untrue

A persons agent is as the person himself

There is not a single verse that actually says that Jesus Christ is the angel of the Lord. The entire doctrine is built from assumption. Why then, if the doctrine is not stated, do so many people believe it? The reason is that it is very awkward for Trinitarians to believe that Jesus is co-equal and co-eternal with God from the beginning of time, and yet he never appears in the Old Testament. Since one cannot miss the active role that Jesus plays today as Head of the Church, is it possible that he could have been around throughout the entire Old Testament and yet never have gotten involved with mankind? A Trinitarian answer to this question is to place Jesus in the Old Testament by assumption: he must be “the angel of the Lord.” I show that this assumption is demonstrably false
