“living” imply?” In the case of our “living” God, this does not imply that “living” involves a human being. In contrast, our “living” God may be compared to that of the dead, such as the Greek gods. God our Creator is eternal.

If Christ was resurrected, and he was; And if he returned and showed his living body to his apostles, ate with them, talked with them, and he did; Then why do you think his living father is any different? Of course God is eternal. Christ is eternal. And you and I in our resurrected form will also be eternal.

Moreover, from where did Christ get his male chromosones (DNA) and his god like physical powers? If you answer, from His Father, why do you think the living Christ is somehow completely and substantively different than his living Father?

I will tell you why. Because you believe in a Bible interpretation mandated by a wicked political emperor named Constantine who rammed through the interpretations you still believe in, at a political/religious council called Nicea. Indeed, the Nicean creed is simply a philosophical distortion of simple apostolic testimonies and teachings.

Kind of like a Hillary/Obama sponsored religious conference mandating that we shall believe in Global Warming, and be put to death if we disagree.

“I will tell you why. Because you believe in a Bible interpretation...”

That statement reveals both your arrogance as well as your false assumptions. The Nicean Creed does not trump the Lord’s Word. According to the Bible, the Lord is Triune; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Triune Lord created all things.

To take your point to its logical conclusion, a “created” being created everything. As you said, Christ wasn’t “created”. He’s eternal, and yet, he lowered himself into human form in order to pay the penalty of sin, and was resurrected.

How many mere morals have you witnessed do such a thing? None. Just as you have not witnessed mere morals creating new galaxies or worlds. How aperpo that you should mention Global Warming. Given scientific achievement, one would think that we shouldn’t have to worry about Global Warming. All scientists need to do is create a new world to live on.

The Almighty, Triune God created, not mere man. Christ is not a mere man. He is Lord, second person of the trinity. To claim that just he, a “man”, created all things is about as preposterous as “Global Warming”.
