How can God be anyone's throne??? Is someone higher than God? That makes no sense in either passage."G-d is thy throne"
Psalm 45 from where it's quoted is clearly addresssing a king, not G-d.
There is no reason to believe its being used as a Vocative. In fact, Hebrew does not have Vocatives. Any English translation that does is purely interpolated.
I suppose it makes no sense why he'd be a fortress or a rock either. Once again, Hebrew does not have a Vocative case.Psalm 18:2 The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I
So you think it really says that God is Jesus' throne? That would put Jesus above God.I suppose it makes no sense why he'd be a fortress or a rock either. Once again, Hebrew does not have a Vocative case.
Only in your interpretation, in mine it means that G-d is the source of his power, thus above him.That would put Jesus above God.

God also said, "Lord, in the beginning you laid the foundation of the earth. With your own hands you made the heavens.
The Only Begotten Son of God, the express image of the Father, conceived by the Holy Ghost was not a created being. Thats the whole point of the chapter, he is not a created angel.I do not disagree that the Logos, the first Created Being, was the one who did the actual work of Creation
Sure it does, the whole passage is about him. Jesus made everything as John 1:3 and Col. 1:16 tell us.Hebrews 1:10 does not necessarily refer to the Son.
Since he is the ONLY Begotten Son of God, that makes no sense.And Colossians 1:15 says he is the "First-made" (translated as "First-born", but more literally is "First-time/thing" of all Creation. Prototokos never is used as "pre-eminent" in the NT, and the word is not even "Firstborn" but "First-time".
You think god procreated an exact copy of himself then called him "son"?Since he is the ONLY Begotten Son of God, that makes no sense.

30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.You think god procreated an exact copy of himself then called him "son"?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. Mathew 16Jesus wasnt even declared Gods' son until the resurrection from the dead. Romans 1:4
Paul was just saying the resurrection proved beyond a doubt that Jesus truly is God's Son, no problem. :no:You gotta problem with Paul .:yes:
Paul was just saying the resurrection proved beyond a doubt that Jesus truly is God's Son, no problem. :no:
I see no difference. If he hadn't risen from the dead, he wouldn't be declared the Son of God with power. Peter knew he was because God had shown him, but we know because he rose from the dead.Nope.:no: Romans 1:4, And declared the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness by the resurrection from the dead.:yes: KJV
Romans 1:4 And who became known as the Son of God with power and with the Holy Spirit, because he arose from the dead, and he is Jesus Christ our Lord. Lamsa
Speaking of Jesus...
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 1 Timothy 3:16
καὶ ὁμολογουμένως μέγα ἐστὶν τὸ τῆς εὐσεβείας μυστήριον· ὃς ἐφανερώθη ἐν σαρκί, ἐδικαιώθη ἐν πνεύματι, ὤφθη ἀγγέλοις, ἐκηρύχθη ἐν ἔθνεσιν, ἐπιστεύθη ἐν κόσμῳ, ἀνελήμφθη ἐν δόξη.Bible in Basic English
And without argument, great is the secret of religion: He who was seen in the flesh, who was given God's approval in the spirit, was seen by the angels, of whom the good news was given among the nations, in whom the world had faith, who was taken up in glory.
