"@meCal3b @DanielvsBabylon You reject that Christ and the Father are the same as Yahweh yes Jesus claims to be the God of the burning bush "Before Abraham was I AM. (John 8:58) That's Yahweh. God's nature in your Luke verse ".he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked." Exodus 34:6 that's Yahweh"

"@meCal3b Your other examples of 'ego eimi' in NT have referents John 8:58 (and 8:24 8:28 13:19) instead match LXX usage of the unpredicated 'ego eimi' in Isaiah 41:4; 43:10; 46:4 and Deut. 32:39 exclusively used as a title for YHWH. That's not accidental and not conventional Greek"

"@meCal3b He did. John 8:54 It is my Father who glorifies me the One YOU say is your God. No new entity. In Mark 12:26-27 he quotes Exodus 3:6 the God of Abraham Isaac Jacob is the God he speaks of. When Jesus says his Father is unseen he's speaking of epignosis not awareness"

"@meCal3b This language pre-dates Christ and in context carries a clear meaning that seemingly eludes you. Put plainly when Jesus says 'you do not know him' he's not literally saying they're unaware of who the CEO is he's saying they're not following his orders and not loyal to him"

"@Notyattaytoncey @meCal3b @DanielvsBabylon The parable highlights that the priesthood were poor stewards of the home Yahweh owns. If Jesus is the son Yahweh is his father and he's acting under the same true authority not in opposition to Yahweh. You're injecting a layer into the parable that simply does not exist"

"@Notyattaytoncey @meCal3b @DanielvsBabylon Which is why Jesus said they don't know his Father even though he's the God they worship (Yahweh). Look at [--] Samuel 2:12 and Hosea 4:1 They say the Priests and Israel didn't 'know' God but obviously they knew of Yahweh. "Knowing" God is different from knowing about him"

"@Notyattaytoncey @meCal3b @DanielvsBabylon And that lack of 'knowing' in the way Jesus intends it both knowledge of God and being faithful and aligned with his will is why his mission was necessary.

"@ShredderSnarf That's in regards to an untested Legion pre-Second Battle of Hoover Damn where there's maybe some sliver of hope in it managing without him. In the show we're getting a Legion that failed even with him at the helm much less with a replacement. https://x.com/nyland_evan/status/2019627520870486508 @ShredderSnarf This note's written by a Caesar whose Legion failed to hold Vegas much less claim the NCR.
