Many, many times the Bible will re-enforce a truth by numbers and and cyclic repetition. The Lord does not use random words and structure in His creation, patterns are a mark of his handiwork.
Jesus called God, "MY FATHER" ===> 40 times. He said the Father was in heaven ===> 30 times. He said the angels behold the FACE of His Father. He said " I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God." -Jn 20:17
He said His Father is “the ONLY true God” in Jn 17:3
and the apostles wrote 7 times: “THE God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Romans 15:6 that with one accord ye may with one mouth glorify **the God and Father of our Lord Jesus** Christ.
2 Cor 1:3 Blessed be **the God and Father of our Lord Jesus** Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort;
2 Cor 10:31 **The God and Father of the Lord Jesus**, he who is blessed for evermore knows that I lie not.
Eph 1:3 Blessed be **the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ**, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ:
Eph 1:17 that **the God of our Lord Jesus Christ**, the Father of glory, may give unto you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
Colossians 1:3 We give thanks **to God the Father of our Lord Jesus** Christ, praying always for you.
1Peter 1:3 Blessed be **the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ** who according to his great mercy begot us again to a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead
Contrast that with "0" usages of "Jesus is God" "God the Son", "Deity of Christ" "God in three persons", "The Trinity" "Triune God" that are inventions of man taught as Bible truth..One lady deleted my link to the Bible search engine inviting her to search for the words and phrases for herself.
Instead of checking what the Bible actually says, she asked if I was Muslim, deleted my posts and they said I cannot be a Christian for not confessing what the scripture does not say. "Jesus is God", "Deity of Christ", "God man", "dual nature" etc.
*I do LOTS of scripture word searches for words, phrases, and sometimes even including counting the number of times a word or phrase was used by the writers of God's Word, as illustrated above.
In doing so anyone can see what scriptures says repeatedly, versus what it never says even once.
On my blog I have posted many of these studies.
I hope you too will be a "noble Berean" to search out the words and phrases for yourself and be convinced by the Word itself rather than what we thought it meant.
