Perhaps I should say "true Christians" instead of "Christians". A good and honorable label can create great harm when it is not lived up to.
"However, there also came to be false prophets among the people, as there will also be false teachers among you. These will quietly bring in destructive sects, and they will even disown the owner who bought them, bringing speedy destruction upon themselves. Furthermore, many will follow their brazen conduct, (or "their acts of shameless conduct.", being the plural of the Greek
a-sel'gei'a) and because of them the way of the truth will be spoken of abusively."
- 2 Peter 2:1,2
But did the Messiah replace the God, like Zeus replacing Kronos, or Kronos replacing Uranus?Since the Christians are a nation w/o land and border, they created may-hem all over the world.
And no, Jesus did not replace his Father. Instead he is being used as Jehovah's Chief Agent to accomplish his will for the Devil's works to be broken up. Jesus' God and Father, Jehovah, is still very much in the picture.
"For this purpose the Son of God was made manifest, to break up (or, "destroy.") the works of the Devil."
- 1 John 3:8b
"God exalted this one as Chief Agent and Savior to his right hand, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins. And we are witnesses of these matters, and so is the holy spirit, which God has given to those obeying him as ruler."
- Acts 5:31,32
"Jesus said to her:'...go to my brothers and say to them, "I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and to your God."'"
- John 20:17
