The God-head of God

Excerpt from excellent article:
That which was seen as generally crucial and core to the Christian faith generations ago, in the vast majority of what names itself evangelicalism today sees is as non-essentials and minor issues.

Why is this? Because a low view of God has been the main creed of postmodern Christian religion. A faith not grounded on the revealed Word and God-hood of God but faith grounded on faith itself that is grounded on what men perceive of what faith is. Whether or not it be drawn from emotion or a philosophical conception it does not matter as long as it feels Christian, filled with love and is intolerant.

In our world today full of widespread ignorance of the truths of Scripture we do not have the luxury that the Reformers had in their time. To discuss and present a Biblical case of the doctrines of the reformation will not and can not be understood with out a proper view of God.
When I talk about the God-hood of God, I mean God’s proper right of Kingship. God’s sovereign right over all His creation. The sovereignty of God.

Quite honestly this concept is difficult to understand in our day and age. Why? Because we don’t have anymore any real apprehension of what it means to be ruled by a king. Men love democracy and the freedoms that come from the Republic’s constitution and bill of rights. We want our freedom to choose and our freedom to pick those we want to ruler over us. To have a sovereign king over us is the last thing we as postmodern human beings would want.

This idea reverberates even in the Christian psyche. We see Christians all over affirming Christ as their personal Savior, some sort of Lord, but never would you openly hear a main stream evangelical say: “The Lord is my King and I am His servant, His slave.”

“Slave? Servant-hood? What are you talking about? Don’t you encroach on my rights and my ‘freedom’ in Christ!”
