for us there R287
is {but} one God, the R288
Father, from R289

Look For ***(Sbt-Tagged)*** in the below disclosure
Start---There is no
God but one ...
He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of the Old Testament and of
the Christian scriptures. He only is God in the true sense. He alone may
rightfully be worshiped, and that through his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Verses 5, 6
For though there be that are called gods whether
in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; yet to us there
is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord,
Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
The multiple names
of pagan mythology illustrate the truth Paul mentioned regarding gods many and
lords many; but the very fact of their being thought of as operating in heaven
or on earth proved that none of them controlled "all things," hence
the fragmented nature of deity as misunderstood in paganism.
One
God, the Father, of whom are all things ...
There is no limitation with God, who cannot be localized like the false gods of
the pagans. He is the Creator and sustainer of all things in heaven or upon
earth.
To
us there is one God ...
There is a difference in Christianity and false religions. "The Christian
is not a syncretist, who attempts to harmonize the
teachings of all religions." F10
Gods
many and lords many ...
Grosheide distinguished between the so-called deities
of the pagans and their "heroes or demigods"; F11
but the terms are here considered to be synonymous.
LORD
was the usual way of referring to deity in the various cults of the time, which
makes Paul's frequent application of it to Jesus Christ significant. Paul
simply made it clear that the heathen world worshiped a multitude of deities,
putting no difference between them. F12
One Lord Jesus Christ ...
There
is affirmed here the oneness of
God and Christ. God is honored as the Creator of all things and Christ his Son
as the Creator of the New Creation. Jesus Christ
is called "God" no less than ten times in the Greek New Testament. See my Commentary on Hebrews, p. 31.

Those That “Call God the
Lord”---Confuses people and helps them develop the “Lord-is-God” mindset.
The reader soon convinces himself that the Lord must be one and the same as
God. Once you train your mind to believe that the title “THE LORD” means God,
it becomes easy to believe that you are reading about God when you are really
reading about the Son of God, Jesus Christ. When you read from a Trinitarian
biased Bible translation you are mentally conditioning yourself to believe that
Jesus Christ is God.

Verse 1
Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all
have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
Now
concerning ...
These words indicate that "the Corinthians had asked Paul questions in
regard to these matters," F2
a fact also indicated by the use of quotation marks to set off portions of this
verse and in 1 Cor. 8:4 and 1 Cor.
8:5 in the RSV.
We
all have knowledge ...
This was the conceited declaration of the questioners from Corinth who
evidently indulged themselves in the pagan temples without regard to weak
brethren; and the first thing Paul did was to nail down the fact that
"knowledge" without love was the grossest ignorance.
Knowledge
puffeth up, but love buildeth
up ...
is the way this stands in the Greek (English Revised Version margin); and it is
a shame that our translators changed it. Knowledge without love only puffs up
the one who fancies he is wise and does nothing for others, whereas love builds
up both its possessor and others.
The
evident concern of Paul's questioners did not refer to themselves (they already
knew everything), but "they wanted to know how to deal with the people who
refused to eat meat sacrificed to idols." F3 Despite this conceit,
some of them were actually "sitting at meat in an idol's temple"! (1 Corinthians
8:10). As some would say today, they were bringing their
"culture" into the church!
The
problem regarded several possibilities: (1) Should a
Christian partake of the feasts in the idol temples? (2) Was it permissible for
him to buy food in the public markets, where most if not all of it had been
procured from the sacrifices? (3) Might he, when invited to a friend's house,
eat flesh which had been sacrificed to idols?
Verse 2
If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything,
he knoweth not yet as he ought to know.
Thinketh that he knoweth
...
All earthly knowledge is partial and fragmentary. "Knowledge is proud that
it has learned so much. Wisdom is humble that it knows no more." F4
In thinking that they knew everything and at the same time despising the
brethren they denominated as ignorant, the Corinthians indeed knew nothing as
they should have known.
Verse 3
But if any man loveth God, the same is known by him.
This
verse ends surprisingly with "the same is known by him," instead of
"the same knows him," as might have been expected; and Farrar was
probably correct in the observation that:
Paul did not wish to use any terms which would foster the
already overgrown conceit of knowledge which was inflating the minds of his
Corinthian converts. Furthermore he felt that "God knoweth
them that are his" (2 Timothy 3:19).
F5
Also,
as Morris said, "The really important thing is not that we know God, but
that he knows us!" F6
Verse 4
Concerning therefore
the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in
the world, and that there is no God but one.
The
sophisticated arguments of the "knowledge" party in
However,
although Paul did not recognize idols "as having any real existence, even
as false deities," F7
he was "certain that evil spirits and demons exist, and that in reality
these were behind the idols and were using them to seduce men from the worship
of the true God." F8 (See 10:20.)
No
idol is anything in the world ...
Of course, the world was full of idols; but, as Wesley said:
Idol here does not mean a mere image; but, by an inevitable
transition of thought, the deity worshiped in the image. By this, Paul says
that Zeus, Apollo, etc., have no existence; they are not to be found in the
world. F9
Furthermore,
Paul does not by such a statement (that they are not in the world) leave room
for the thought that they may be anywhere else. The "world" as used
here refers to the whole universe.
There
is no God but one ...
He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of the Old Testament and of
the Christian scriptures. He only is God in the true sense. He alone may
rightfully be worshiped, and that through his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Verses 5, 6

earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; yet to us there is one God, the
Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ,
