Why would Paul confuse using the same word “God” twice (vv. 3 & 12) but with different meanings each time he used it within the same passage?? Why would Paul confuse by writing “God” first to mean the Father in v3 only to turn around and use the same word again, a second time in v12 to mean something else, the Godhead?? There is no way that v12 (“all things come from God”) can be shown to mean “the Father” since the Father alone is not the Creator.
