Recognition of the Father, through the Son, by the power of the Holy Spirit:Where is the Nonsense in That?

As the angel said, do not worship me!

But the conundrum that faced the Pharisees as it does for those who do not really want to acknowledge Yeshua's 'personality or personhood as part of the God head is real and it is intense. The Gospel of John's opening description of the Godhead is a critical starting place: 1:1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 1:14) And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

That being said, the greater issue is that as the world is being prepared for its purge of those who have decided for rebellion and are set for punishment for offenses against Israel, this issue of Who Yeshua Is needs to be understood, since all of this is being acted upon orders from Him at the direction of the Father. Missing this is not going to be a minor issue, since recognizing that the authority has always been from the God Head and the Son of Man has always been the King.
