Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
Here is an article by an unknown author that I am sharing.

It is erroneously stated that Oneness Apostolics deny the Father. This is not possible. Without the Father, which is a title, there wouldn’t be a Son, which is also a title. The Father is a singular Holy Spirit. God is invisible and will NEVER be seen by anyone. The only begotten Son which is in the bosom of the Father, which is Jesus Christ, hath declared Him. The word declared means to unfold…. The Father is that one omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient, invisible Spirit that is resident and manifest in the Son - hence the Son. The Son is not eternal. There was a day the Son was begotten.
It must be dismissed that The Father sits on the throne and Jesus is kneeling or standing next to Him. God is invisible and that will Never change. Jesus is the image, the only image, of that invisible God.

We have been programmed to conjure up images of the Father, which is natural. When you say Father and Son you automatically think of two. Yet, our God is one Lord. How can this be? That One Spirit became flesh. God sent His Son is rendered and understood to be by revelation that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.
…until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ
In his times He shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of Lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. 1 Tim 6.
The Father can’t sit on the throne because the Father is an invisible Spirit, He is an invisible Spirit and always will be. Who sits on the throne? The Son of God. Who is the Son of God? The manifestation, the declaration, the image or the icon of God.
Thomas wanted to see the Father, Jesus said when you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father. No man will ever see God, we will never see the light of God.

His Name shall be called - Jesus shall be called - Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. These are names ascribed to the child that would be born. The government shall be on His shoulder. This was the cross that He would bear.
Jesus was
The Lamb
The High priest
Bread of Life
The Mercy Seat
The Blood on the Mercy Seat
The Veil that was rent in Twain signified His flesh.
How can Jesus be the Father and the Son? The same way He can be the Lion and the Lamb. The same way He can be the first and the last. The same way He can be the beginning and the end. The same way He can be All there is.
Jesus is the song of Heaven
Jesus is the light of Heaven
Jesus created the Heavens - all things were made by Him - Who is Him? Jesus - and for Him. Jesus made the throne that He sits on.

Stephen saw the Glory of God - and Jesus. Would it surprise you to know that the one who is and was the first and the last, the Lion and the Lamb is also the the Glory of God? Jesus is the brightness of His Glory. Jesus is the visible manifestation of the Invisible God.
There is no office that Jesus does not fill. Pull back the curtain of the Father, you’ll find Jesus. The greatest name in this world and the world to come? Jesus Christ.
It’s blindness that causes anyone to say that God’s name is God. Jesus called Satan the god of this world. That’s emphatic, empirical proof that g-o-d is not a name. Judas is known as the son of perdition. That’s emphatical, empirical proof that s-o-n, is not a name.
There is only one name - Jesus. Is His name Jehovah? Jesus means Jehovah has become our salvation. All of the compound names of Jehovah in the Old Testament are found and revealed in Jesus Christ.
The compound names of Jehovah or Yahweh found in the Old Testament are fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Jehovah Jireh - the Lord will provide - Jesus
Jehovah Rapha - the Lord who heals - Jesus
Jehovah Nissi - the Lord is my banner - Jesus

These and many more reflect God's character and His relationship with humanity.
In that day there shall be One Lord and His Name one.
You can’t cast out a devil by saying father, son, or Holy Ghost.
Jesus said in my name you shall cast out devils
At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow
Repentance and remission of sins shall be preached in His Name
The lame man was healed by the Name of Jesus Christ, and it’s the only Name given under heaven whereby we must be saved.
“Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD?
and there is no God else beside me;
for I am God, and there is none else.

That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Isaiah 45.
“that at the name of JESUS every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2
“Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour - Isaiah 43:11 - Jesus is that savior.
Unto you is born this day in the city of David a savior which is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:11
There is no office He does not fill
There is no sickness He cannot heal - that’s Jesus.

There are no songs written about any other god. There are no sermons preached about any other name. Preach about Jehovah, it will lead you to Jesus. Preach about One God, it will lead you to Jesus. Preach about one Lord, you’ll be preaching about Jesus. Preach about healing? You’ll be preaching about Jesus. Jesus saves - Jesus Heals. Jesus delivers - it’s the Son that sets us free. That’s Jesus. Who died and rose again? Jesus. Who is Jesus going to present the church to? Jesus. Himself. From Genesis to Revelation, it’s Jesus. From the rising of the Son to the going down of the same it’s Jesus!
Jesus Christ is King of Kings and Lord of Lords and that emphatically means there is none above Him. He is subservient to none. That’s the voice of God. He thought it not robbery to be EQUAL with God. Jesus said my Father is greater than I - Jesus was saying The Spirit is greater than this flesh.
Who being in the form (external appearance) of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God. He was God manifest in the flesh. God revealed. Jesus is the only God we will ever see. There are not two - there is only one person of God. It was Job that said will you accept His person? There are not three persons. There is only one. There is only one Lord - Jesus is that Lord. There is only One Spirit, Jesus is that Spirit. There is only one name, Jesus is that Name. There is only one potentate. Jesus is that Potentate. There is only one King, Jesus is that King. There is only one throne - Jesus sits on that throne.
William James Roop
