But to reconcile the eternity of the Son with a strict monotheism, he resorted to a Platonic hierarchical framework for the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and ended up by also making the Son and Holy Spirit not precisely creatures but 'diminished gods.'

Hick, John: The Myth of God Incarnate "There is actually nothing new about the central themes of this book ... That the historical Jesus did not present Himself as God incarnate is accepted by all [theologians] ... Christian laymen today are not fully aware of it. ... (Jesus) did not teach the doctrine of the trinity." (The Myth of God Incarnate, John Hick) Our Comment Hick is a flaming modernist who doesn't believe the Bible! The title of the book "Myth of God incarnate" not only denies that Jesus was God incarnate, (trinity) but denies any incarnation period! In other words, Hick and his collection of liberal theologians, don't even believe that Jesus was a pre-existent angel! John Hick, and his associates who wrote this book are flaming modernists. It is unbelievable that anti-trinitarians would use this book as proof that trinity is of pagan origin. The central theme of the book is to say that "incarnation of Christ" itself is a pagan doctrine and myth. Hick is not debunking "divine incarnation" but "any incarnation" ... ... https://www.bible.ca/trinity/trinity-Hick.htm

Was Jesus Christ really born of a Virgin? The Bible says, "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost..... Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet saying, 'Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us"'. (Matthew 1:18-23). The virgin birth of Jesus is a topic of exquisite design. The more comprehensive the study of the work of Jesus, the more fitting the virgin birth appears. How else could the Christ so convincingly demonstrate his kinship with man while retaining his divine nature? But what is the evidence for believing in the virgin birth? Some have rejected the virgin birth as being an intellectual absurdity.

Biblical Subordination expressed by early Fathers and apologists ... Jehovah's Witnesses are correct when they emphasize the subordination of Christ to the Father (in rank or power), but outright misrepresent history, when they say the early church viewed Jesus as a creature.
