 Jesus God well, I think it's pretty clear as a matter of fact. I think it's mandatory to believe so However, there are people that are just not going to accept it and how does the old saying go a man convinced his will is to not Convincing so this particular video is not for people who are still fighting This is for people who believe that Jesus is God and we're just like for the validation of it in In Greek there are rules just like in English just like in Spanish in the language There are rules to the grammar and so there's one particular rule that we need to look at that also Helps approve to solidify that Jesus is God This rule is called the Granville sharp move. Maybe you've heard about it Maybe you have not but who Granville sharp is he lived in the time of slavery in the late 1700s early 1800s He was an abolitionist but what he is most known for is this particular rule He is believed to be self-studied or self-taught and in his self-studies one of the things that he discovered Was this particular rule now? There are other elements of the rule that probably aren't true But there's one particular element of this rule that is true. So before I go to that let's go ahead just kind of give a Brief synopsis of this rule and let me just put on the screen so you all can read what it really is The rule is as follows When the cognitive chi that is in the English the word and Connects two nouns of the same case Either the substance is now the substantive can be a noun or something that kind of operates in place of a noun can be an Adjective or participle and so when you have two nouns Separated by and it will refer to the same thing if the substantive are both singular meaning it's personal Not relating to a thing and also it's not a proper name So just just having that understanding this seems to work a hundred percent of time now I have not come across any examples where there are not although there are some debated texts where People might have debate whether this is a proper noun or not but if it's just it but if it's understood that this is a Noun that's not proper or a substantive that is not a proper name that is singular And that is personal or then this rule follows one hundred percent of the time So let me give a couple examples that I think are pretty easy And no one's going to really debate these issues and that is one in Romans 15 6 So that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ now We understand that the God and father That is relating to the same person now this rule this Granville sharp rule is in place So let's go over to it here. We have God feon and so we have the rule where a feon is the substantive Here's a Kai and then Patera which is also a substance so we have two nouns both of these are singular separated by the Kai and so here we've got an example of Granville sharps rule where both of these nouns refer to the same person so God and father That is the same person. So that's one example, and it's not too controversial. No one's going to disagree with that Let's give another example in in 2nd Peter 1 1 Simon Peter a bond servant and apostle of Jesus Christ. So here we've got let's go over here to the Greek Doulas, which is the first substantive Separated with the Kai next in apostolos. So we have this word both of them into the same gender Apostolos and Doulas both a singular both personal and they're not a proper name So we understand it without much debate that Peter is a apostle as well as a bond servant Referring to the same person Peter the bond servant Peter the apostle same thing That's an example where there's not very much controversy to it However, there are examples where there is some controversy. How about Titus 2 13? looking for the Blessed Hope and The appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior now This is where the controversy will come in for those who do not want to accept that Jesus is God And so here we have feu and to tear us both of these are Substantives separated by the Kai both of these substances both of these nouns are one singular both personal Both of these also neither are a proper name And so they both fit the definition and so what does this state and this is why it can be controversial for those who don't believe that Jesus God that literally God and Savior is Jesus Christ. So Jesus Christ is the great God and Savior but if we who understand this can look at this we see one proof by the grammar and It gives us an idea as to who is the one that's working in us and who has died for us now If we go back to that same example in Peter Not only do we see that Peter is an example being a bond server and apostle does example We drop a little bit further down in that very same verse We'll see it again relating to Jesus to those who have received a faith of the same kind as ours By the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ. So let's see that rule is also in place here where our God To Fayu so here we've got the first substantive Separated by Kai and then to tear us as well. So we see it again our great God and Savior now in this case You might have a modifier such as our which is fine. That doesn't interfere with the rule at all And so you can have a modifier Before this again, that that's not an issue. But here we've got a clear example just like we had the first part of 2nd Peter 2 1 1 the latter part of 2nd Peter 2 1 1 where Peter is The bomb servant and apostle no problem there the same rule has to be going to be consistent follows that So too is Jesus also our God and Savior so This where it becomes it should be clear that just in following the rules Obviously these people spoke the language they understood it and there are rules to whether you even understood the rule Not obviously the rule was not named the Grandville sharp rule It's just that he stumbled across this rule. It's been tested and proven to be true So again, if you've got a substantive which is a noun could be an adjective Participal anything that is a noun or in the place of a noun or represents a noun if it's singular if it's personal meaning it's not a thing and If it's not a proper name if those two substantive are separated by the word Kai or and Also these two being in the same gender well, then it fits the rule It makes the point 100% of time now This isn't the only rule also that makes the point that Jesus is God as a matter of fact One of the classic examples that we've covered all the time is John 1 1 in the beginning was the word the word with God And the word was God and because you've got these two Substantives here, which would be Lagos and Phaos, which is word and God Trying to figure out which one is the noun and which one is the predicate nominative Well, the order dictates this in this case That is the subject would be the first noun in this case would be the word and then the predicate nominative would be the The following the second now in this case would be God and what it's predicate nominative do it describes the category the class of What the noun is which is the word the word is and what category would class it is God So there's plenty of rules that we can use the site or there are enough rules I have to say that we can use the site to determine that Jesus is God But just the plain reading of the text as well because remember there is one Lord And the Bible tells us in Deuteronomy that the Lord is God Moses meets the Lord. He's called angel the Lord the Lord and God and he's also called I am and Jesus says that Unless you believe that I am you shall Die in your sins and then if you do not confess that Jesus is the Lord whoever calls by the name of the Lord So it's pretty clear again. This is not to try to convince a Unitarian someone didn't want to hold to this it's not for them This is for you guys who understand the truth Who have had your hearts changed and you're growing in the grace and knowledge just further proof Further validation that Jesus is Lord amen
