Correct. And He did. The "sons of God" are spoken of in the plural at Job
38:7, where they shouted for joy at seeing the physical creation. The sons
of God are without number. That doesn't mean they ALL had to become
Christs, only ONE of them did.

Only *one* is Firstborn. Only *one* is God's only direct creation. Only
*one* is the agent God then used to create everything else:

1Co 8:6 "yet for us there is but *one God, the Father*, from whom are all
things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all
things, and we exist through Him."

Correct. But He chooses to anoint those He wishes to become "christs" or
anointed ones. The word "christou" appears 12 times in the LXX and it
simply means "anointed one."

Of course, the Lord Jesus Christ is greater than all these, for He is God's
Firstborn Son, not just some imperfect man used as christ for a limited time
in a limited way. Jesus Christ's anointing as King and High Priest will
benefit obedient mankind forever. (Heb 5:9)

Of course. Jehovah is the Source of all salvation; He sent His
only-begotten, Firstborn Son as our perfect Savior. Any one of God's sons
could have sufficed; but no, Jehovah gave his BEST for us, even before we
were born. How can we help but respond with praise and thanksgiving? And
why should men presume to remove the Name of the REAL Savior from His own
Scriptures?

Allelouia!

Peace to you and yours in this violent world.
