The Godhead

The word “Godhead” means “divine power”, “deity”, and “divine nature”.

“Godhead” describes the SPIRIT of God.

 

The “Father” describes the SPIRIT of God.
The “Holy Ghost” describes the SPIRIT of God.

“Son” on the other hand, describes the FLESH of God. 

Clearly, the "Son", which is the FLESH of God, should not be considered part of the Godhead.

The concept that the “Son” (the FLESH of God) is in the Godhead is a concept that is a tradition of man! RATHER, as the Bible states, the Godhead is IN the body (flesh) of Christ.   

Colossians 2:8   Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 

Colossians 2:9   For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 

The SPIRIT of God is IN the SON.  

John 14:7 ¶ If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

John 14:8   Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

John 14:9   Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?  

Jesus told His disciples that God would give them the Comforter, also called the Spirit of truth, which is the Holy Ghost.

The SPIRIT of God would be IN THEM.

John 14:16   And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 

John 14:17   [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.    

When a person is born again of the water and Spirit, he BECOMES a SON of God. This person, as a son of God, is flesh with the Spirit of God dwelling in him. He is God’s body. 

John 1:12   But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:

John 1:13   Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.    

A person that has been born again of the water and Spirit becomes part of the body of Christ. 

Romans 12:5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. 

Exodus 17:8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

Exodus 17:8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

Amalek – “doubt” (Jewish sages). Amalek was the grandson of Esau. Because Esau sold his birthright (spiritual position) for a bowl oflentils (appetite/flesh), it appears that Esau represents carnality/flesh. Because Amalek is Esau’s grandson, it seems Amalek also represents carnality/flesh.
Rephidim – “resting place”. The Holy Spirit is the rest and refreshing (Isaiah 28:12). We have rest in Jesus. Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Just as Amalek (carnality/flesh) fought Israel in Rephidim (resting place), so also the flesh/carnality fights the people of God that walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5:16-17 [This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

Exodus 17:9 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.

Rod – representing God’s Divine Justice/Judgment

Exodus 17:10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

Moses – “drawn out” Aaron - “light bringer” Hur – “hole”

Exodus 17:11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

Moses hand – power Moses rod - God's Justice and Judgment

Exodus 17:12 But Moses' hands [were] heavy; and they took a stone, and put [it] under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

Stone - Jesus 1 Peter 2:6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

Exodus 17:13 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

Joshua – “The Lord is salvation” (“Yeshua” – “Jesus”). Sword – sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.

Exodus 17:14 And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this [for] a memorial in a book, and rehearse [it] in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.

Put out the remembrance of doubt (or carnality). Rehearse it in the ears of Joshua – Jesus conquered carnality and doubt (sin).
Colossians 2:15 [And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. (NLT: In this way, he disarmed*(he stripped off) the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross.
John 12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet [are], and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Exodus 17:15 And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:

“The Lord is my banner” – “Something lifted up – a token to be seen far off”. Jesus was lifted up on the cross as a sacrifice for the sins of the world.
John 3:14-15 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all [men] unto me.

Exodus 17:16 For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn [that] the LORD [will have] war with Amalek from generation to generation.

Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation – war with the flesh/carnality, Jesus came to die on a cross. Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
2 Corinthians 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;
2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
