The creator of this video (from The Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction channel) is a True Believer and follower of Christ. He expounds on the modern day phenomena that is causing many followers of Christ to say:
"Logos is Rising” and he correctly states “Logos has Risen” (Christ has Risen). The “Logos is Rising” phrase is suddenly being echoed throughout certain circles in response to the intense developments of our day as a sign of an awakening not quite there yet.
He asks: What does "Logos" really mean? And he gives the right answer: It is Christ! But, where him I differ is that he holds a very common belief held by many Christians and that is that Christ is God. I believe Christ is the son of God and not God himself, but One with God.
So my reference to “Satan’s Logos” on the video cover is not a reference against the creator of this video or what he says, nor is it directed to those who hold his same belief system, but a reference to those who take the word of God to teach hatred, conflict, and all forms of iniquities, which in his video he highlights and condemns very well with sincerity and love for God, Christ and Humanity.
My learmings:
According to many Greek scholars and Bible translators, John 1:1 highlights, not the identity, but a quality of the “Word”. Because their is no definite article in front of ‘theos’ it becomes a description . . . In other words John is not identifying the ‘Word’ with God and does not say that Jesus was God.
In Greek, if you leave off the article from ‘theos’ in a sentence like the one in John 1:1c, then readers will assume you mean ‘a god.’ The absence of the atticle makes ‘theos’ different than the definite ‘ho theos’, as different as ‘a god’ is from ‘God’ in English.” In John 1:1, the ‘Word’ is not the one-and-only God, but is a god, or divine being. The Logos [or, Word] was divine, not the divine Being himself.
Jesus made a clear distinction between him and his Father
The identity of God is not a very profound mystery. It did not seem so to Jesus in his prayer to his Father, Jesus made a clear distinction between him and his Father when he said: “This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.” (John 17:3) If we believe Jesus and understand the plain teaching of the Bible, we will respect him as the divine Son of God that he is, and God the Father as “the only true God.”
