The New Testament Recognizes Three Persons as God (8 of 26 notes)

Part Three
Theology Proper: 20 THE UNITY AND TRINITY OF GOD
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker

Alford states five convincing objections to making the last part of the verse a doxology, and concludes by stating:

The rendering given above (Christ.. . who is God over all) is then not only that most agreeable to the usage of the Apostle, but the only one admissible by the rules of grammar and arrangement. It also admirably suits the context; for, having enumerated the historic advantages of the Jewish people, he concludes by stating one which ranks far higher than all--that from them sprung, according to the flesh, He who is God over all, blessed for ever.²
