Easter Information: Biblical and Pagan

The word "Easter" occurs only once in Acts 12:4 of the Holy Bible: the Seventh Bible also called KJV (King James Version). It's the same Greek word (Pasca // Pascha) of Aramaic origin also used for "passover", which occurs 28 times in the Holy Bible. Yet Luke (writer of Acts) and Translators of the Bible, learned men all, chose to use the word "Easter" instead of "passover" in the Acts 12:4 passage, and for a specific allegory reason not well known. For a discusion about such allegoric mystery made known, see Easter Revelation below.

Pretty much everything else about Easter is pagan related, contrary to the will of God, or as fictional as Santa Clause and Easter Bunny. Even Easter Sunday varies yearly from March 22 (earliest) to April 25 (latest) in the Western Christian Easter season; And it's changable date is calculated based on the spring equinox and the full moon thereafter. But the moon has no light of it's own; Similar to the day of the LORD is darkness and not light. Allegory: it's law and not grace us. So "take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness": Luke 11:35. In comparison and contrast, that God is light(grace), and in him there is no darkness(law) at all. Such brings to light this thought: perhaps nearly everything many people have previously believed about Easter is a lie. Hence the modern quest of more open minded bible scholars about what really happened at Easter Week: Passover Week: Holy Week; And the challenge of deal with conflicting reports in the gospels, rather than ignore so many Bible Contradictions. For contrary things can never co-exist in peace; But Christ is our peace who abolished law.

The term Easter originates from Eastre: a pagan spring festival; And from Teutonic notions of a lunar Goddess of spring: Eostre. These are as old and bwd as BC; And were not celebrated much in the Americas until the 1800s when Germans brought the Easter rabbit and egg symbols to Western cultures. Now Easter is the 4th largest card sending day, the 2nd largest candy eating day, with perhaps the largest church attendance and double dip offering in America: which celebrates sacrifice (that God will not have), on the wrong day of crucifixion (Good Friday), and the first of two ascensions as if such martyr-dumb and such ascension of Jesus to right standing of a divided God on "high" in the (plural divided) "heavens", and such division and not peace(rest) thereof, were truly Godly. Not! For such "high-minded" things listed in 2Timothy 3 are notably listed among "un-holy" things to turn away from. Ephesians 6 also notes "wickedness" occurs in "high" place, and it's spiritual wickedness. Hence the Pauline exhortations to "mind not high things": Romans 12:16 and "be not high-minded": Romans 11:20 & 1Timothy 6:17. Also the Colossians 3 exhortation: if risen with Christ (is the end of the law), focus your attention above (higher than the heavens) where Christ is seated (at rest: denoting the law vs grace matter is settled in Christ); And admonition to bewitched churches: if justified by law, then fallen from grace to law, and if fallen then Christ(no law = no sin = no death sting) of no effect to you: Galatians 5:4... fearful: Heb 10:31.

Isn't it odd how Christianity boasts a ww Saviour with an 'empty tomb', boasts being the only religion having a Leader with an empty tomb; But then still adheres to being reconciled to death: to extinction, which obviously hind-ers being reconciled unto eternal life, which is only "much more" of the two "reconciled"s in Romans 5:10 when a first of twain is flushed as dung. For the Bible clarifies the new agreeth not with the old, so you put off the old to put on the new, and he taketh away the first that he might establish the second, not mix the twain to make an oxy-moron such as one proselyte. Worse yet, as if to make the last error worse than the first error, they want an already resurrected Jesus to return with a vengeance and eventually loose the devil, to deceive the world all over again. I find this the oddest thing about Easter.

To better understand, take a look at two Gods portrayed that are on high and higher; One God only being "the only true God" of false/true Gods, "the only wise God" of foolish/wise Gods, "the blessed and only Potentate", "the God of all grace" (no law at all), and "the God of all comfort" (no discomfort at all), "that God" is light (having no darkness at all). To wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself (not in Jesus alienating the world): 2Corinthians 5:19. For God did not send his Son to condemn(law) the world: Jn 3:17; Not this; Rather that: the world through him("through Jesus-->Christ" ends with "Christ": "the end of the law") might be "saved" (graced). And God did not send his Son till "the fulness of the time" for law (had an expiry date) expired: Galatians 4, which also states "which things are an allegory".

There is much traditional pomp, confusion, and error concerning Easter. No consensus. Many are the differences in Hebrew (Orthodox and Reformed differ), and Christian (Roman Catholic and Protestant) religions. Western and Eastern customs and dates also oft differ. As we'll see the crucifixion and resurrection matter involves two Easters, and two Sabbaths, and two Ascensions, even two Gods in the "midst" of seven last utterances (a Menorah Seven) as well as two Gods in different heavens (one higher than the earth, one higher than the heavens) of the first of two ascensions. Tradition tends to err, be it Hebrew or Christian, Eastern or Western. For celebrating Mosaic giving of law, and after Christ: "the end of the law", or celebrating giving of the Holy Ghost, and  after Christ ascended to "heaven" (higher than the heavens) and entered in for "us" is law <- law rather than grace us; foolish rather than wise. For law added to "grace is sufficient" is as adding death to life: 2Corinthians 3 & James 1, and as adding cursed to blessed: Galatians 3, and as adding destroyed after to saved: Jude 5. Hence the Bible ends with you all being saved(only) because it ends with grace(only):

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.
Easter  and Passover (for the Hebrews) are  moveable (changable) holidays.

For Christians Easter is the first Sunday after the paschal full moon that occurs on or after the vernal equinox. If the full moon falls on a Sunday, Easter is the following Sunday. The holiday can occur between March 22 and April 25. In 325AD the council of Nicaea established Easter would be on Sunday. Before this it was celebrated on different days in different places.

For the Jews Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) is the holiday commemorating the Hebrews' exodus from Egypt, lasts seven days in Israel and among Reform Jews, eight days elsewhere around the world. It begins on the 15th day of Nisan, the seventh month in the Jewish calendar. It ends the 21st of Nisan in Israel (and for Reform Jews), 22nd of Nisan elsewhere. Yet there were two Passovers at the time of Jesus: one for Sadducees & one for Pharisees.

The Easter & Passover gap can be large, as in 2005: Easter: March 27 & Passover: April 24. Western Christian churches and Eastern Orthodox churches oft celebrate Easter on different dates. On rare occasions West and East dates match, such as they did on April 8th of 2007.
At "Easter" - in Acts 12: 3,4 Peter: the only man called "Satan" (Matthew 16:23) in the Bible is imprisoned and chained (see Revelation 20) for a 1,000 years [is] as one day (2Peter 3:8). So the 1,000 years of Revelation 20 is allegorically one day, and such a 1000 year day is called "Easter", but only in Acts 12, with all other 29 references using the word "passover", for the greek word Pascha. So, perhaps Luke (author of Acts) and Translators of the Bible, learned men all, well versed in Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek, were telling us something by using the word "Easter". As the narrative goes, Peter(Satan) escaped, got "loosed for a little (law) season" (Revelation 20), to deceive the world, until he got converted in accordance with "when (not if) thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren ": Luke 22:32; And admittedly got converted from another law to grace & peace by reading all epistles of Paul The Apostle, which includes Hebrews and Revelation, which also contain Paul's "token" by his own hand.

Note:
such prophetic exhortation of Luke 22:32 to a man called "Satan" could also be said for Pope: John-Paul II, who's recorded (on his 8th globe-trotting journey in 1999) as saying: "the l-o-n-g tradition of sacrifice must continue in the third millennium". WWJS? "Get behind me Satan"! Ye do err, "not knowing" the Scriptures! For the immutable will of God is: "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice"...and the not part of such martyr-dumb is not then, not now, not ever. For the will of God is notably the same in both OT and NT: Psalms 40:7; Psalms 51:16; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7; Hebrews 10: 5-10. And the will of God to be done on earth as it is in heaven (the work that JC came to do) is notably  "finished" before the cross (John 17), not at the cross where it's notably cursed EVERY ONE that hangeth on a tree: Galatians 3 (to "bewitched" churches). For as James 1:15 notes: sin(law), when "it is finished", brings forth "death" (not life). Furthermore, Hebrews 10:36 flat out states do the will of God precedes receive the promise, and these all who did not do it, listed in Hebrews 11, notably died and received not the promise; making Hebrews 11 a hall of shame, not fame. Selah.
In many churches; Especially in the orthodox churches and the Roman Catholic churches, Easter (which is primarily about "sacrifice": is what God will "not" have, and the "not" part is notably not then, not now, not ever: Psalms 40:6; Psalms 51:16; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7; Hebrews 10:all)...Easter in these churches is preceded by a "season" of prayers, abstinences, fastings commonly called Lent. This(of this/that) season, of Lent, is observed (see Jonah Chp 2 for clarity about observing lying vanities; Galatians Chp 4 for clarity about observing beggarly elements; Colossians Chp 2 for clarity about observing ordinances)...the season of Lent is observed in memory of 40 days' fast of "Jesus"("made under the law": Gal 4:4) in the wilderness (perhaps wilderness of Sin between Elim and Sinai).

In Eastern Orthodox churches Lent is 50 days. In Western Christendom (also a mess) Lent is observed for six weeks and four days. Mariam Webster (Dictionary person), a Christian who could quote much of the Bible, defines Lent as: forty workdays from Ash Wednesday to Easter. Ash Wednesday (beginning of Lent in Western Christendumb) is February 21st in the 2007 season preceding Easter, which is also a season of sacrifice, which is of and by expired law "was", got "abolished" (Ephesians 2:15) by "Christ" is "the end of the law" (Romans 10:4).

Since Lent is kinda about letting go and letting God have his more excellent way prevail among all,  I thought it best to bring forth the idea of letting go of some of the churchy legalism and churchy lies about Easter (also the Christmas Lies and Valentine Lies spawned by Another Law, the dead weight which so easily besets many with evil concupiscence, especially many priests in the news lately)... letting go of all Lies. For it is not the true lies which make anyone free; But rather it's the truth "made known" which makes you (KofG within you) free.

Know the truth makes you "free" of believe-ing the lies. Selah.

John 1:17
(Compares law & grace as if lie & truth)
The law (and lie) "was" given by Moses
But grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Perhaps (when we "give more earnest heed") the uncertain "season" of Lent is as the little "season" Satan (Law) is "loosed" in Revelation 20:3 to "deceive" the nations; Not to mention Peter(1st pope) is the only man in the Bible called "Satan", who is also told: "when(not if) thou art converted, then strengthen(not weaken) thy brethren"... which is to allegory say when thou art converted from law glory to grace glory, from blind faith to seeing faith, which is also as if going from Mt Sinai to Mt Sion, then grace(not law) thy brethren. Peter notably does get converted, notably by reading all the epistles of Paul The Apostle: "his witness unto all men" (which are 15 Pauline Epistles), which converted Peter notably makes mention of in his 2nd general epistle to his scatter brained brethren. Peter also allegorically mentions Revelation in his epistle, by noting in 2Peter 3:8 be not ignorant of this one thing, then also that (since also that shall be told wheresoever this gospel is preached throughout the world; for ww comparison of this/that gospels, this/that Gods) noting "and": "one day [is] as a thousand years" (perhaps the 1000 yrs mentioned in Revelation 20 is thereby the one day in Acts 12: "Easter")... in "which things are an allegory": Galatains 4 and "mystery" (not over 20 times in the NT).  So the day Peter(Satan) spent chained in jail in Acts 12 is as the 1,000 yrs in Revelation 20. For there is nothing covered or hidden in the Bible that is not also uncovered and made known; such as that God is "also merciful": all mercy and no sacrifice at all = all grace and no law at all. Selah.

So, perhaps the reason we have so dog gone many global sorrows recorded in the news lately, is many orthodox and RCC religious people are observing Lent, and pewhaps as if observing lying vanities(laws): "they that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy": Jonah; and as if observing beggarly elements: laws(Gal 4:3,9), ordinances(Col 2:20-22), which we are exhorted to "touch not, taste not, handle not" for by the using of ordinances all perish. But by doing the will of God ("I will have mercy, and not sacrifice") none perish. Not to mention it is only by doing the will of God that the promise (eternal life) is received; Which is why all the blind faith heroes in Heb 11 notably all died and "received not the promise". So all perish or none perish (all live): "either make the tree good or corrupt(evil)" is allegorically the difference between Law(all perish) or Grace(none perish) as if the difference between Two Gods of Easter: Enmity or Friend, as if God our Destroyer or God our Saviour... Not to mention the Lord is l-o-n-g-suffering to us-ward (not to them-ward) so that none perish, which is how the Holy Bible and all the Pauline Epistles thereof do end, in order to be saved(graced) only, rather than both saved + destroyed afterward as happened those in Jude 5 who followed Moses, for Moses' law was not only a "great terror" to all, but "both good + evil", and we are exhorted to discern(avoid) "both good + evil": Hebrews 5: conclusion, is to say a-void law.

Perhaps Lent is more about the little(law) "season" Satan(Peter: first pope) deceives the nations by deceiving any of "we all are one", for "a little leaven leaveneth the whole". Perhaps something better to do at Lent is to finish probating the will of God; Since doing the will of God notably precedes receive the promise, which all those in Hebrews 11's hall of shame notably "received not". Selah.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Easter Project 1: Seven Last Utterances

Correctly Order The Seven Last Utterances

To See What's in the MIDST of such Menorah Seven
(Note: Order Below is the order they appear in four gospel accounts)

· MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME (Mt 27:46; Mk 15:34; Ps 22:1)
· Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do (Luke 23:34) and say (1Thess 5:3)
· Verily, I say unto thee, to day shalt thou be with me in paradise ? (Luke 23: 43)
· Father, into thy hands I commend my Spirit (Luke 23:46; from Psalms 31: 5 but not the same)
· Woman, behold thy son! (John 19:26) ... Behold thy mother (John 19:27) 
· I thirst (John 19:28)
· It is finished (John 19:30)  ... Note: this is the 2nd mention of "finished" x2 in "verily verily" John 17 & 19


QUESTION
: Why(?) should we bother to 'correctly order' seven last utterances? What(?) is wrong with the order they appear in the gospel accounts, ending with "it is finished" in John?


ANSWER: James 1:15 reveals when "it is finished" ("it" being "sin" = "law" = "evil"), "it" brings forth "death", not "life", and to all (Romans 5:14; 1Corinthians 15:22)...In which things are an Allegory: grace + law = life + death = a dead end (which God will not have, as God will not have sacrifice for sin (which is of the law and by the law): not then, not now, not ever). For "God did not send His Son to condemn (law) the world" (Jn 3:17), nor to bring death to any. The
purpose of grace & truth which came by Jesus Christ (Jn 1:17) is life and awareness to all. The purpose of reviewing, ordering seven last utterances, is awareness of what eternal life "is". It's not sin imputing grace + law, nor the sacrifice of any, for such would be the death of us all: For "we thus judge if one died for all, then were all dead" (all dead = extinction, not salvation).

2Corinthians 5:14 notably reveals "if one died for all, then were all dead"; which speaks of extinction of all rather than salvation of all.  Hence 2Cor 5:14 followed by: To wit, that God was in "Christ" reconciling the world unto himself, "not imputing their trespasses" (2Cor 5:19), which speaks of no law -> no sin imputed -> no sacrifice required -> no dead end for all.

For law was both the source of sin (Rom 4:15; 5:13) and the strength of sin which has a deadly sting (1Cor 15:56), and to all (Gal 5:9) if any get stung by such law -> sin -> death. It kills both body and head of the body, just as cancer kills body and head if not removed in time. So there are two mentions of "finished" in Jn 17 and Jn 19, the first "finished" noting the work God sent JC to do ("Lo, I come to do thy will O God") is "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice"; and that work (will of God) got "finished" before the cross (Jn 17), rather than at the cross (Jn 19). For JC took oxymoronic grace + law, made it grace or law, and took such to the cross where law got nailed as enmity, grace going on through to risen and seated with God as what's right. Hence it is written that eternal salvation and peace with God is notably "through" Jesus --> Christ: Christ "is the end of the law". Selah.

Dare to Compare Jesus and Christ:

Jesus: made under the law: Galatians 4
Christ: is the end of the law: Romans 10
Jesus-->Christ: ye are not under the law(Jesus), but under grace(Christ)

Jesus: division, and not peace: Mt 10; Lk 12; Jn 7
Christ: peace, and not divided: Jn 14; 1Cor, Eph 2
Jesus-->Christ: is our peace who abolished the law

Jesus: standing right of a (false) God Father on high in the (plural) heavens
Christ: seated right of God our Father in heaven: higher than the heavens
Jesus-->Christ: if risen with Christ, set your affection above where Christ is seated

Jesus: the Saviour of Israel(of Jacob-->Israel) only
Christ: the Saviour of the world (that God so loved)
To wit: that God was in Christ reconciling the world

Perhaps a closer look (to "take heed": Mt 24; Mk 13 and to "give more earnest heed": Heb 2) at the Easter events of Crucifixion Week, the seven last utterances, resurrection appearances (can be deceiving), and the two ascensions, may reveal other wise than what is 'traditionally' taught and thought. For what's traditionally taught is "this gospel" (of this & that gospels) which is notably the "beginning of sorrows" (Mt 24); But "that gospel" of "Christ: the end of the law" (Romans 10:4) is "also" the end of such global sorrows. Both gospels go global, for comparison, one as the beginning of fear and sorrows, one as the end of fear and sorrows. And as they are "contrary things", "he taketh away the first that he may establish the second".

See Easter Page 2 for notes on Seven Last Utterances and the answer to their correct order, the purpose thereof being to see what's in the MIDST of such a Menorah Seven: Two Gods; And two Gods is one too many Gods, not to mention the result is feeling "forsaken".

Easter Project 2: Resurrection Appearances

Study of Resurrection Appearances Can Be Deceiving

The possibility posed about many resurrection appearances, some in unrecognizable forms, is perhaps appearances can be deceiving, especially when considering "Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not" (Mt 24:23; Mk 13:21). Not to mention some appearances in "another form" and twain appearances to Mary Magdelene from "behind" and up front (requiring her to turn twice) and calling her "Woman" (first) and Mary (second), and her perceiving him as Gardener (1st Adam) and Rabboni: Master (Lord). Well, when looking closer at what's been said ("give more earnest heed"), then what's commonly taught and thought may be error, from the spirit of error (of two spirits to try, to see which is witch). Again this is a long and detailed study; so see Easter Page 3 dedicated to it (for the sake of faster loading time of this already l-o-n-g-suffering Easter Page).

Preparation Day Information - Two Sabbaths Information


It is not reasonable nor correct to assume the crucifixion occurred on Good Friday nor that the last supper occurred on (Maundy) Thursday as many are erroneously taught in churches and Sunday schools. So let us have a better understanding of the term "preparation day" (Matthew 27:62; Mark 15:42; Luke 23:54; John 19:14, 31, 42), which is scripturally noted as the day on which the crucifixion occured, and a better understanding of the two Sabbaths occurring in that passover week: one sabbath considered a high holy day (megale hemera) and one sabbath considered a higher holy day (allegorically to distinguish two Gods by distinguishing two Sabbaths). Not to mention Paul The Apostle's higher exhortations to "mind not high things": Romans 12:16 and "be not highminded": Romans 11:20 & 1Timothy 6:17 because "high-minded" is listed among "unholy" things in 2Timothy 3's "from such turn away".

Unknown to many Christians is the scenario there were two Sabbaths on the week of crucifixion (Passover). The first of two Sabbaths was the annual Sabbath (Passover: Pesach: also called hag hamatzot: an annual eight day Jewish spring festival of unleavened bread), an "high (holy) day" which occurred on Thursday of the crucifixion week. The second of two Sabbaths was the weekly Sabbath (the higher day), which occurred on Saturday (every week) in commemoration of The Sabbath of (annual and weekly) Sabbaths. The term Preparation Day ("preparation") refers to the day before the annual (Passover) Sabbath, when the lamb is slaughtered (sacrificed) and prepared (on Preparation Day), since no work is allowed on either the annual or the weekly Sabbath of two Sabbaths. Hence the passover lamb (the sacrifice which the only true God never desired nor ever took pleasure in: Psalms 40:16; Psalms 51:16; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7; Hebrews 10) was sacrificed (killed) and prepared the day before Passover meal eaten: Preparation Day, which in the case of crucifixion week was Wednesday(see chart below). Such was eaten on Passover(Thursday). The crucifixion occurred simultaneously with the sacrificial Passover lamb being killed and prepared, whereby the lamb of God (God on "high" in plural "heavens"; Not God in "heaven": "higher than the heavens") was sacrificed(slaughtered, killed, prepared) at exactly 3pm on Preparation Day (Wednesday); Not on Good Friday as "many"(deceived by many shall come to deceive... and shall deceive "many") assume (but actually "know not").

A potential timeline of the Crucifixion week(to help get it: understanding):

                                                      Crucifixion    Passover   Two Marys             Resurrection
Entry                    Last Supper Preparation Day Sabbath   Buy spices   Sabbath 1st of Wk
Sunday      Monday     Tuesday    Wednesday   Thursday       Friday     Saturday    Sunday
___|_________|_________|_________|_________|_________|_________|________|___
                                                                                 |                  |
                                                                        14th of Abib    15th of Abib(Nisan)
                                                                          Passover    Unleavend Bread->7 days(21st)
                                                                          (Lev 23:5)        (Lev 23:6)

Mt 27:62 reveals chief priests and Pharisees came to Pilate the day after preparation to request the tomb be guarded, to assure the body couldn't be stolen and a resurrection claimed.
Mk 15:42 reveals it was preparation day when Joseph of Arimathaea requested the body.
Lk 23:54 says it was preparation day he took it down, wrapped it in linen, laid it in a sepulcher.
Jn 19:14 reveals it was preparation of the passover, not preparation for the weekly Sabbath
Jn 19:31 reveals the (passover) Sabbath following preparation was an high day, and the Jews wanted the bodies down before the Sabbath began (at evening), because of their law in Deuteronomy 21:23 notes if anyone hanged, the body should not remain on the tree overnight.
Jn 19:42 again reveals they put the body in the tomb because of the Jews' preparation [day].
Mk 16:1 reveals two Marys bought spices for anointing after the (passover) Sabbath, which would be on Friday, since everything was closed on Thursday Sabbath and Saturday Sabbath.
Lk 23:55,56 and Lk 24:1 reveal two Marys watched the body entombed (Wed), then they returned (home) and prepared the spices they'd bought (on Friday), rested on the Sabbath (Saturday), came back to the tomb with the spices early Sunday morning (before sun rise). But the body was already gone, so they never got to do their spicial anointing (greasing) thing.

As to Last Supper, research indicates it was neither Passover nor Unleavened Bread, for the bread he did brake was leavened, telling them he'd not eat the passover till kingdom come.

My God, my God: The Two Gods of Easter are opposed


In the midst of seven last utterances ("My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me"), which is a Menorah Seven like Genesis 1:1, and in the first of two ascensions (tell them "I ascend to my Father and your Father, my God and your God"), which is to plural heavens (higher than the earth), we find two Gods. For one slice only, "the only true God" (of false/true Gods), "the only wise God" (of foolish/wise Gods), it requires rightly dividing of the word of truth to have one God whereby it turns out all right and no left (behind) at all. That God resides above such left and right sides, sides war and blame game thereof, in "heaven" (higher than the heavens). Such is the only Potentate, the King eternal and immortal, which JC came to shew in his times.

Two Gods, or one divisional double minded God in the midst of law and grace, is portrayed as:
(law: God of them all) ...left hand <- God(Majesty) -> right hand... (grace: God of us all)
The problem with such Humpty Dumpty wall sitting is it has too many alls: "them all" & "us all". So in actuality what's right of God on high is false grace, since it gives place to law on the left. Only what's above high mindedness is pure grace, the only true God of two Gods: God on high and Higher God. For one is God in divided "heavens", and one is God in united "heaven".

There are two Gods opposed about them, also two (this/that) Worlds of two (this/that) Gods which also speak of two (this/that) gospels and of  spake/spoke in Hebrews 1; the allegory for such being law(God) and grace(God) since there are also two glorys and two faiths as well as two ends of two testaments. One God is foolish and one is wise (the only wise God), as one is  false and one is true (the only true God) as two Spirits, such as Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit, as well as two Sons: the Son of man and the Son of God. In boils down to law vs grace, the only wise God being "the God of all grace"; For "that God" is light, and in him there is no darkness at all. And since "in him there is no sin" it also speaks of no law = no sin = no death.
