Did He change His mind in Phillipians 2:9 says, "Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." WAIT, WAIT. My bible says there is only ONE Lord in Ephesians 4:5 says, "ONE Lord, one faith, ONE baptism; ONE God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you."

Yes every knee SHOULD bow to Jesus, this happens when one accepts the work he has done on the cross and in baptism with Holy Spirit, his full work given him to do by his Father who is God Almighty. All these shall stand before Christ's judgement seat when he judges the Church.
But what people don't realize is that EVERY knee SHALL bow to God the Father, willingly in loving obedience or unwillingly at their final judgement, after the 1,000 years.
Isaiah 45:22-24, Romans 14:10-12.

There is the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God and as you wrote only ONE LORD who is GOD in Eph. who does a specific work in regard to One baptism (of which there are a few, baptism meaning being put into) which is when The Father Baptises or puts one into the Body called the Church, of which Christ is the Head and we are the members placed there by God alone. This is said to be "In Christ".

That is not a lie. The name Jehovah is the only name that is excellent. The only name Christians worship. The name Jesus is above every other name, in that it is the name you need to be saved by, but Christians do not worship Jesus, they worship God (I Corinthians 14:25; Philippians 3:3). The word LORD in the OT is from the Hebrew YHWH, and not the same as the word Lord in the NT, which is from Aramaic and/or Latin. The words are translated the same, but have differing meanings. Because we read them in English some are confused and believe they are the same word with the same meaning, and they are not. True Christians know that Jesus is not God.

God CANNOT lie. (Titus 1:2)

Where Paul says in Phillipians that God exalted Jesus and gave him a name above every other name, with the exception of his own. That is why he ends that verse ... to the GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER. Jesus was exalted to a position above every other angelic creature and, obviously, above every human. That's all.

Did He change His mind? Not at all, Jehovah is the Almighty God, Jesus is his Son.

The dignity of this Bible God, Jehovah, his worthiness, his respectability, his importance, all these things tower heaven-high above the earth. Not a single human creature on earth, no matter how famous he has made himself in human history, has elevated his name and fame above that of this God or even as high as God’s name. No creature in heaven and earth can exalt his name as high as that of Jehovah, for “his name alone is unreachably high.” Yes, “his name only is supreme.”

God points out by this passage that Jesus is also part of God. God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. All one, All God.

In the teachings about covenant, names being changed during covenants, such as Abram to Abraham etc. it would be easier to understand how this could be. How Hebrew letters are added to ones names, thus giving them a change of name. Jesus IS the very WORD of YHVH made human.
There is only ONE GOD!
Duet 6:4
James 2:19
Do the research. It will help you grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus the Messiah.

Man made titles drive me into a cranky state of mind. Oneness, trinity, dualism. All bunk!
Just take God at His Word. And allow Him to reveal to those seeking about His divine nature.
EDIT: Thank you for your very Godly and Christian response to my answer by e mail.
I stand corrected, and apologize for my attitude.

Yes, exactly. There is ONE God, three persons, and Jesus is one of those. John 1 explains it quite well. Jesus is the "Word of God" which was "with God and was God" from the beginning. Jesus said "Before Abraham, I AM", and "I AM" is the name of God. Just as the skin of an apple, the flesh of an apple, and the core of an apple is one apple, so the Father, Son, and Spirit are one God.

Maybe both will be exalted

its like saying Joe will be hit while it doesn't mention his friends will be hit too. Is the person telling this lying? No

Its like focusing on one thing

Also to the above poster, what he meant by death was probably a spiritual death. And also the Bible states if they eat out of the tree of life they will live forever. So they gave up living forever and Adam died later. That means that the tree of knowledge didnt allow eternal life. So that means they will die a later date

Sandra,
When Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples the mother of all questions, "Who do you say that I am?" (Matthew 16:15, Mark 8:29, Luke 9:20). Mormons answer this question by saying that Jesus is the spirit brother of Lucifer; Jehovah's Witnesses answer by saying that Jesus is the archangel Michael; New Agers say Jesus is an avatar or enlightened messenger. Jesus, however, answered by claiming that he was God.
First, Jesus claimed to be the unique Son of God. As a result, the Jewish leaders tried to kill him because in "calling God his own Father [Jesus was] making himself equal with God" (John 5:18). In John 8:58 Jesus wento so far as to use the very words by which God revealed himself to Moses from the burning bush (Exodus 3:14). To the Jews this was the epitome of blasphemy for they knew that in doing so Jesus was clearly claiming ot be God. On yet another occasion, Jesus explicitly told the Jews: "I and the Father are one." Again, the Jews picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?" We are not stoning you for any of these, replied the Jews, but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God (John 10:30-33).
Furthermore, Jesus made an unmistakable claim to deity before the Chief Priests and the whole Sanhedrin. Caiphas the High Priest asked him: "Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?" "I am," said Jesus "And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the rigt hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven" (Mark 14:61-62).
A biblically illiterate person might well have missed the import of Jesus words. Caiaphas and the Council, however, did not. They knew that in saying he was "the SON OF MAN" who would come "ON THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN" he was making an overt reference to the Son of Man in Daniel's prophecy (Daniel 7:13-14). And in doing so, he was not only claiming to be the preexistent Sovereign of the Universe but prophesying that he would vindicate his claim by judging the very court that was now condemning him. Moreover, by combining Daniel's propecy with David's proclamation in Psalm 110, Jesus was claiming that he would sit upon the throne of Israel's God and share God's very glory.
To students of the Old Testament this was the HEIGHT of "blasphemy," thus "they all condemned him as worthy of death" (Mark 14:64)
Finally, Jesus claimed to possess the very attributes of God. For example, he claimed OMNISCIENCE by telling Peter, "this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me 3 times" (Mathew 26:34); declared OMNIPOTENCE by not only resurrecting Lazarus (John 11:43) but by raising himself from the dead (see John 2:19); and professed OMNIPRESENCE by promisisng he would be whith his disciples "to the very end of the age" (Matthew 28:20).
Not only so, but Jesus said to the paralytic in Luke 5:20, "Friend, your sins are forgiven." In doing so, he claimed a prerogative reserved for God alone. In addition, when Thomas worshiped Jesus saying "My Lord and my God!" (John 20:28), Jesus responded with commendation rather than condemnation.
"I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive forever and ever!" Revelation 1:17-18
