FAQ # 148

QUESTION  148 :  If God being in Christ makes Christ God the Father (2 Cor 5:19), as the author is contending, would not Christ, who (according to the author) is God the Father, being in Philip (Jn. 14:20) and in all who have the hope of glory (Col. 1:27) also make all those God the Father? If not, why not? (bible.ca)

No. Because the fullness of the Godhead was in Christ bodily, that is, God who is spirit was in a human bodily form or as we say, an incarnation. Meaning, the only spirit that was in the flesh called Jesus was God. He did it for the purpose of the cross, to save the world or as it states, to reconcile the world unto himself. Now, is that the case for another human flesh. No. We are humans with our own spirits (souls) in our own flesh given a measure (John 3:34) of God’s spirit. Hence, we are the Sons of God and not God.
