He’s The son Of God Indeed
…he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and
how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? (John 14:8-9).
There’re still many who don’t know who Jesus
really is; to them, He’s a great religious leader.
But Jesus isn’t a mere religious leader or reformist;
He’s Himself God. You have to study the Word of
God to discover this. In John 5:39, He said, ‘search the
Scriptures, for they testify of me.’ The Scriptures testify
of Jesus as Deity; He’s co-equal with God. John 1:1
says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with God, and the Word was God.” This is talking
about Jesus; He’s the living and incarnate Word.
A certain preacher told the story of a professor
who came to his church on a Sunday morning. After the
sermon, the professor came to greet him, and he asked
the professor, “I hope you enjoyed the service?”
The professor replied, “Yes I did, but I don’t really believe
the things you preached.” Surprised, the preacher
asked, “Which amongst the things I said was difficult
for you to accept?” “Well, about everything,” replied
the professor.
Then the preacher said to him, “Go and study the
Bible for yourself; after you’ve read through, come
back and let’s discuss.” The man took the Bible home
and spent several weeks reading the Scriptures. After
reading from Genesis to Revelation, he made an
appointment to see the Pastor again. When they met
this time, before the Pastor could say anything, the
professor submitted: “Pastor, Jesus Christ is God!”
The Professor continued, “You told me to study
the Bible for myself, and I‘ve done that. I studied from
Genesis to Revelation; my finding is what I’m giving
you: Jesus Christ is God.” He found out the truth. Glory
to God! Jesus said, “I and my Father are one” (John
10:30). In our opening verse, He said, “If you have
seen me, you have seen the Father.” He’s one with the
Father; that’s the meaning of “Son of God.”
Son of God doesn’t just mean somebody born
of God; it means one with His nature. You’ve got to
come to that point in your life where you recognise
that Jesus is Himself God. The Bible declares that
the fullness of the Godhead dwells in Him bodily;
(Colossians 1:19, 2:9) He’s the complete embodiment
of Deity. Hallelujah!
Prayer
Dear Lord Jesus, I worship and extol your majesty, for you’re the
great King; the Monarch of the universe; the mighty God. I adore
you for who you are; the sum total of the divine perfection,
powers, and attributes dwell in you permanently. I’m forever
grateful to be born with your nature, and life in my spirit; I
worship you for this awesome privilege. Hallelujah!
