Nr. 121:
I have read some of your blog, and is again met a few questions. If you feel like writing long answers, so I appreciate if you end with a yes / no at the end of the answers, so the answer is clear.
1. Do you think that Jesus was created by God, so that the angels (only that he was the first of the created)?
2. Do you think Jesus is an angel, because the other angels are referred to as God's sons?
3. Do you pray to Jesus directly, forgiveness, or ask the Father through Jesus?
4. Communicate with Jesus (pray to him, telling him things), or ask you only to the Father through Jesus? Thanks for your reply. :) Bard.
A:
1) Yes.
2) Yes.
3) I pray to the Father in Jesus' name.
4) Sometimes even to Jesus, but first and foremost to the Father.
Shall here elaborate my answers:
1) Do you think that Jesus was created by God like the angels (only that he was the first of the created)?
Jesus is the first Father brakes brought the dawn of time. Before anyone else, in the beginning says the apostle John, and Jesus himself says that he came forth from the Father. The clearest passage is Micah 5 1. But you Bethlehem Ephrath, which is little to be among the thousands of Judah! By thee shall be omitted for me one who will be ruler over Israel, and his output is of old, from eternity days.
Here is the 1930 translation is by far the best Norwegian Bible translation is also very good. Jesus has its output from formerly, even from eternity day just as the basic text says: Olam. But in Psalm 90 2 Before the mountains were, and you created the earth and the earth, even from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
The basic text it says here: Olam Olam twice showing that the Father is unique, he is the only true God who is before anyone olam 2 times for Jewish and Hebrew speech from eternity, while olam is once again a period of time. In other words, Jesus is already a period of time before everything else, but he has a beginning. See also the website what I have written about this bl. a in:

2.) 2. Do you think Jesus is an angel, because the other angels are referred to as God's sons?
Jesus is Lord, he is still far more, since he is the only one who has shown us who the Father is and like him, even though the Father is greater than me, said Jesus. God the Father is wrong t.o.m. in His angels, but not in the Son Jesus Christ.
Job 4 17 Is a person justified before God, or a man purely for its creator? 18 See, for His servants trust him not, and with his angels, he finds fault.
But if Jesus: Heb. 7. 26 For such an high priest we had and have, holy, innocent, pure, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens.

The angels are God's sons, but still lower than Jesus but higher than humans, before we experience sluttfrelsen, then the man take his God-given position and rule with Christ.
Jesus is also the highest among the angels, and after he came to earth and became man so he is the highest among people and has the name that is above everyone else in the universe, big?
3) Do you pray to Jesus directly, forgiveness, or ask the Father through Jesus?
This can quickly become an artificial question, but I take 100% distance from both to pray and worship the Holy Spirit that many Pentecostals and charismatics do. Asks one and experience answers to prayer, it is the great and glorious. For me Jesus is my best friend, while the Father is there, too. But God is still something more, then he must and I will be responsible for. It may seem strange, but God, I see also that my and everyone's judge where it is only when I get the glory of the body is saved, filled out.

4) Communicates with you Jesus (pray to him, telling him things), or ask you only to the Father through Jesus?
I'm chatting with Jesus completely safe throughout the day, but when it comes to really pray. So I pray always to the Father in the name of Jesus because without Jesus I had never been allowed to come to God the Father. But Jesus is also Teos, God. By that I mean that there are only two people in scripture as one should and can ask for, it is God the Father and Jesus after the resurrection. I mean something more than just to show honor and reverence among others. a one revealed to Jesus child. But to experience during and miracles and salvation, it is far more than to show reverence and respect. And it is only in the name of Jesus there is salvation and he is an intermediary between me and God the Father, therefore, Jesus is unique and perfect.
But the Bard, do not rely completely on your Norwegian Bible, it has been translated by people who keep themselves well to the dogma that is not biblical as bl. a Trinity, eternally burning hell, etc. See more here:
