Whoever denies the Son The phrase "denies the Son" is crucial in understanding the theological stance of the Apostle John. The Greek word for "denies" is "arneomai," which implies a strong rejection or refusal. In the historical context of early Christianity, this denial was not merely a verbal rejection but a profound theological stance against the divinity and messianic role of Jesus Christ. The early church faced numerous heresies, such as Gnosticism, which denied the true nature of Christ. This phrase serves as a warning against such false teachings, emphasizing the necessity of acknowledging Jesus as the Son of God. does not have the Father whoever confesses the Son has the Father as well Parallel Commentaries ...
