Fred,

Let me state right up front that I have no desire to cause any friction or to cast any stones, as it were, upon MacArthur; a man I highly admire. What I would like, however is some clarification of what he used to believe and has since left behind him.

QUESTION: What would John MacArthur have called the second person of the Trinity if He was not the "Son"? If the second person of the Trinity acquired "sonship" in time; i.e., at the time of the incarnation, what or who was He before that event in regard to the economic relationship within the Trinity? As you can probably surmise, I'm just a tad confused as to what exactly MacArthur once held on this matter. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/stupidme.gif" alt="" />

In His Grace,
