Bill Schlegel | Deity of Christ believer, please explain John 17:3 @billschlegel1 | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 12 minutes ago.
If God is a Trinity, and if Jesus is God, why would Jesus Christ say in John 17:3 that the Father is the only true God?
And why would Jesus Christ differentiate himself from God, not including himself in his description of the only true God?
Trinitarians and those who believe in the deity of Christ say that the Gospel of John is the main book in the New Testament that presents Jesus as God. Yet, here in the Gospel of John, Jesus says that the Father is the only true God, and that Jesus, distinct from God, is the Messiah.
Doesn't John 17:3 contradict the idea that God is a Trinity, and that Jesus is God?
