JESUS – THE ONE AND ONLY

NAMES OF JESUS IN THE 1ST CHAPTER OF JOHN:

#4  HE WAS CALLED ONE AND ONLY:

“No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only who is at the Father’s side, has made him known.”  This term “One and Only” is translated in several versions as the Only Begotten”  John 3:16 “…He gave his One and Only Son that whosoever believeth…”

Actually I believe it is a good way to present that verse to children.  It is more concrete, more understandable.  And it does not hold the possibilities for error; for example, that the Son was a created being or that he is an “underling” of the Father.

He is of the same nature as God the Father with no beginning and no end.  He is the one and only way  – or he is a liar.  He said (John 14:6)  “I am the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me.”

About oneta hayes

ABOUT ME Hello. To various folks I am Neat’nee, Mom, Grandma Neta, Gramma, Aunt Neta, Aunt Noni, Aunt Neno, and Aunt Neto (lots of varieties from little nieces and nephews). To some I’m more like “Didn’t you used to be my teacher?” or “Don’t I know you from someplace?” To you, perhaps, I am a Fellow Blogger. Not “fellow” like a male or a guy, but “fellow” like a companion or an adventurer. I would choose to be Grandma Blogger, and have you pull up a chair, my website before you, while I tell you of some days of yore. I have experienced life much differently than most of you. It was and is a good life. I hope to share nuggets of appreciation for those who have gone before me and those who come after me. By necessity you are among those who come after me and I will tell you of those who came before. Once upon a time in a little house on a prairie - oops, change that lest I commit plagiarism - and change that “house on the prairie” to “dugout on the prairie.” So my story begins...

      Reminding me of an old song, Jesus is the One. …yes, he’s the only one, let him have his way, until the day is done; when He speaks you’ll know, the clouds will have to go, Just because He loves you so.
