God and Jesus by Anthony Buzzard




Christian Monotheism Podcast show

Summary: Anthony discusses the popular argument that Elohim has a plural ending and thus points to plurality in God. Elohim when used for the One God is not plural in meaning. The four "let us" texts should never be allowed to contradict the thousands and thousands of singular pronouns by which God describes Himself (not Themselves!) in the Bible. The brilliant and unifying text in Deut. 6:4, 5 which Jesus celebrated as the greatest truth of all (Mark 12:28ff.) informs us that God is a single Person. the Trinitarian understanding of God as Three Persons is a much later development that the Bible does not recognize. Jesus and Paul did not believe in a Triune God.
