About This Product
Subsisting always in the form of God, our Lord took the bondman's form, becoming obedient even as far as death, the death of the cross (Philippians 2:5-8). Colossians 1:15-17 definitely attributes the whole work of creation to the Son of the Father's love, which, of necessity, was accomplished in pre-incarnate Deity.
From the Introduction- THE series of papers which follow were written in the humble attempt to consider afresh what scripture teaches concerning the Eternal Sonship of our Lord Jesus Christ. This doctrine has been recently denied, and the denial of a cherished belief regarding One Whom we love and revere and adore touches our deepest sensibilities, and stirs our whole being to defense.
The first impulse of our renewed nature is to resent such a denial as a deadly affront to the glory of the Essential Being of our Blessed Lord, and to reject the implication as one of the many phases of anti-Christian doctrine against which we are warned. And, indeed, an unhesitating refusal to entertain for even a moment anything derogatory to the Son of God is an effective safeguard for the simple saints; by turning at once from what appears to be evil, they are preserved from error and its defilement.
But, in the second place, while there is safety in being simple as to evil, the apostle exhorts us also to be wise concerning that which is good (Rom. 16:9). And we remember that to this end the scriptures alone are able to make us “wise unto salvation” from the erroneous teachings of men. For this reason, special reference has been made in these papers to this authority, and particularly to those words of our Lord Himself and to that witness of the Spirit, which bear upon the pre-incarnate Sonship.
