Dear Friends,
Excuse me please, let me attract your attention to the psalm
2 and psalm 45 in the Holy Scripture.
The psalms are the praise religious songs to God.
There is in the New American Bible and in the many other versions
of the Bible Lord Jesus Christ is not the "Lord" and
"King" in the psalm 2 and psalm 45, because the words
"lord" and "king" written with small letter
in the psalm 2:6, psalm 45:1(2) and psalm 45:11(12).
Psalm 2

Psalm 45

But the Holy Scripture tell us, that Lord Jesus Christ is
the "Lord" and "King" in the psalm 2 and
psalm 45.
"For to which of the angels did He ever say: "You are
My Son, today I have begotten You"?
"But to the Son He says: "Your throne, O God, is forever
and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore
God, Your God, has anointed You
with the oil of gladness more than Your companions.
And: "You, Lord, in the beginning laid the foundation of
the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands" (Hebrews
1:5, 8-10).
We must to take it into to account, because the psalms are the
praise religious songs only to God, not to man.
And there is in the psalm 2:6 David tells us, that God the Father
have set the "King" Lord Jesus Christ on the everlasting
kingdom.
"Yet have I set My King upon My holy hill of Zion"
(Psalm 2:6);
"For so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into
the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
(2 Peter 1:11).
There is in the Russian Synodal Bible Lord Jesus Christ is the
"Lord" and "King" in the psalm 2 and psalm
45 (44), and there are the words "Lord" and "King"
in the Russian Synodal Bible has the capital letter.
I think you will agree with me, that the Holy Bible must to have
only one version, and there are the capital letters play the
very important role in the modern text of the Holy Scripture
today.
"Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there
be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together
in the same mind and in the same judgment" (1 Corinthians
1:10).
There is the word "King" in the Isaiah 6:5 and Jeremiah
10:10 written with the capital letter. That's right, because
there is in the Isaiah 6:5 and Jeremiah 10:10 Lord Jesus Christ
is the "King", Lord of hosts.
Isaiah 6

Jeremiah 10

- New American Bible (Vatican)
http://www.usccb.org/nab/bible/jeremiah/jeremiah10.htm
- New American Bible
But there is in the Isaiah 6:1 in the New American Bible
the word "King" concerning to the king Uzziah written
with the capital letter too. That's not right.
Please see the right version, where Lord Jesus Christ is the
"Lord" and "King" in the psalm 2 and psalm
45, because there are the words "Lord" and "King"
written with the capital letter in the psalm 2:6, psalm 45:1
and psalm 45:11.

1. Who is the "King" in the psalm 2:6, the king Solomon,
David or Lord Jesus Christ?
2. Who is the "King" in the psalm 45:1(2) and 45:11(12),
the king Solomon, David or Lord Jesus Christ??
3. Who is the "Lord" in the psalm 45:11(12), the king
Solomon, David or Lord Jesus Christ??
4. Who is the "King" in the Old Testament God the Father
or God the Son:
Answer is one - Lord Jesus Christ.
"I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your
King" (Isaiah 43:15);
"Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his Redeemer
the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside
Me there is no God" (Isaiah 44:6)?
"But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and
the everlasting King" (Jeremiah 10:10).
"In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting
upon the throne, high and lifted up, and His train filled the
temple.
Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone; because I am a man
of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean
lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts"
(Isaiah 6:1,5).
"These things said Isaiah, when he saw His glory, and spoke
of Him" (John 12:41), about Son of God, Lord Jesus Christ,
King, Lord of hosts.
Excuse me please and please don't angry to me, let me attract
your attention my theological work about the God's definition
in the psalm 2:7 concerning to the nature of one God, and my
explanation, that there is in the Old Testament only Lord Jesus
Christ is the "King", but not God the Father, God the
Son and God the Holy Spirit are one "King".
Please understand me right. I don't want to change your conviction,
but I want, that you only listen my understanding of the nature
of God. Listen to me please. It is very important for me.
God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit is one God.
When I tell only about God the Father, I must to tell, that
God the Father is one God, not the first God.
When I tell only about God the Son, I must to tell, that God
the Son is one God, not the second God.
When I tell only about God the Holy Spirit, I must to tell, that
God the Holy Spirit is one God, not the third God.
But I can to tell only about God the Father, that God the
Father is the first God's Personality of the Holy Trinity. God
the Son is the second God's Personality of the Holy Trinity,
and God the Holy Spirit is the third God's Personality of the
Holy Trinity.
I must to remember, that I can not to mix three God's Personalities
in one Personality, like Jehovah's Witnesses. They are speaking
everywhere, if Lord Jesus Christ is God, it is meaning:
"Did God say that He was His own Son, that He was well pleased
in Himself, that He sent Himself?"
"Who did He pray to? To a part of Himself?"
"Who did Jesus address? Himself or a part of Himself?"
"Who raised Jesus from the dead? If He were indeed dead,
He wouldn't have resurrected Himself".
They don't know the nature of one God.
God the Father tell us about God the Son: "Yet have I set
My King upon My holy hill of Zion" (Psalm 2:6).
I know, that Lord Jesus Christ is one God, and that He is the
"King". So, when I read in the Holy Scripture "Thus
saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the Lord
of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside Me there
is no God" (Isaiah 44:6), I know, that there is in this
verse Lord Jesus Christ is speaking, because Lord Jesus Christ
is one God, the "King of Israel, and his Redeemer the Lord
of hosts", "the first, and the last" and beside
Lord Jesus Christ there is no God.
But I know, that beside God the Father there is no God, and beside
God the Holy Spirit there is no God.
And if I will tell, that God the Father is the "King"
and God the Holy Spirit is the "King" too, it is meaning,
that I mix three God's Personalities in one Personality, what
I must not to do.
"Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord" (Deuteronomy
6:4);
"I will declare the decree: the Lord has said to Me, You
are My Son, today I have begotten You" (Psalm 2:7).
"I will announce the definition: the Lord has said to
Me, You are My Son, today I have begotten You" (Psalm 2:7)
in the Russian Synodal Bible.
The combination of this two verses, Deuteronomy 6:4 and Psalm
2:7, let us to name the Lord Jesus Christ "more one Personality",
who has the God's nature, like His Father, because Lord Jesus
Christ is the true Son of God. But to name the Lord Jesus Christ
"more one God" in the combination with Deuteromony
6:4 "our God is one Lord" is meaning to contradict
to God's decree (definition), what Lord Jesus Christ declared
in Psalm 2:7. God the Holy Spirit is one God by God's decree
(definition) too.
I don't know, why two thousands years nobody speak about the
God's definition in the psalm 2:7 concerning to the nature of
God. I discovered it for myself in the process of my discussion
with Jehovah's Witnesses. It is very beautiful definition of
God, and nobody speak about it.
So, when I read "Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God is
one Lord" (Deuteronomy 6:4), I know, that there is in this
verse I read about the God the Father, God the Son and God the
Holy Spirit. But when I read "I am the Lord, your Holy One,
the Creator of Israel, your King" (Isaiah 43:15), I know,
that I read only about the Lord Jesus Christ, because Lord Jesus
Christ is one God, the everlasting "King".
It is very simple explanation, and he has not contradiction
to the Psalm 2:6 "Yet have I set My King upon My holy hill
of Zion" (Psalm 2:6).
There is in this verse of the Holy Scripture only God the
Father is speaking:
"Thus says God the LORD, Who created the heavens and stretched
them out, Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from
it, Who gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to those
who walk on it" (Isaiah 42:5).
There is in this verse of the Holy Scripture only God the
Holy Spirit is speaking:
"Then the LORD said to Moses: "How long will these
people reject Me?" (Numbers 14:11);
""I, even I, am He who comforts you" (Isaiah 51:12).
God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are not
one mystery unknowable Personality,
but three different God's Personalities.
"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy Spirit" (Matthew28:19).
"It is also written in your law that the testimony of
two men is true.
I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent
Me bears witness of Me" (John 8:17,18).
Lord Jesus Christ tell us, that He and His Father are two different
Personalities, like two men, differently He and His Father can
not to be two witnesses.
And I am sure, that there is only Lord Jesus Christ is the
"Lord" and "King" in the Psalm 2 and Psalm
45, not the king David ore Solomon.
And there is in the Old Testament only Lord Jesus Christ is
one God, the everlasting "King".
"I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your
King" (Isaiah 43:15);
"Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his Redeemer
the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside
Me there is no God" (Isaiah 44:6)?
"But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and
the everlasting King" (Jeremiah 10:10).
"In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting
upon the throne, high and lifted up, and His train filled the
temple.
Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone; because I am a man
of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean
lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts"
(Isaiah 6:1,5).
"These things said Isaiah, when he saw His glory, and spoke
of Him" (John 12:41), about Son of God, Lord Jesus Christ,
King, Lord of hosts.
"For so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly
into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
(2 Peter 1:11).
The word "King" concerning to God is very beautiful
key in the Holy Scripture. There is everywhere in the Old Testament,
when I read the word "King" concerning to God, I know,
that there is Lord Jesus Christ is the "King".
And I know, that the glory of God the Father and God the Son
is one, because God the Father and God the Son is one God:
"And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ
is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Philippians 2:11).
Lord Jesus Christ is God Jehovah.
Excuse me please my mistakes in English, I am sorry, I don't
speak English.
Thank you.
