TOPIC: God’s Testimony Of Jesus (Rhapsody of Realities 24 July 2024)

…and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him….And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased (Matthew 3:16-17).

 Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

The scripture above is one of the scriptures that many read and get confused about the deity of Jesus. They claim that even God testified that Jesus is His son, how then can He be co-equal with God?

That’s because they don’t understand the meaning of the expression “Son of God”; and I’ve explained this several times, but it bears repeating. Son of God means God in the flesh. First, understand this: there’re no three separate “beings” in heaven called, God the Father, God the Son, and then the Holy Spirit; no! There’s only ONE; and His Name is Jesus!

The Father is in Jesus. The Holy Spirit is in Jesus. The  Bible says in Him (Jesus Christ) dwells the fullness of the Godhead bodily: “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9). There’s only one God, and His Name is Jesus Christ. He’s the Word incarnate, which makes Him God incarnate (John 1:1 & John 1:14).

Colossians 1:15 describes Him as the exact image of the unseen God; the visible representation of the invisible God. Read the 16th to 19th verses in the Amplified Classic. It says, “For it was in Him that all things were created, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or authorities; all things were created and exist through Him [by His service, intervention] and in and for Him. And He Himself existed before all things, and in Him all things consist (cohere, are held together)…For it has pleased [the Father] that all the divine fullness (the sum total of the divine perfection, powers, and attributes) should dwell in Him permanently.” Blessed be His Name forever!
Also, read Titus 2:13 and see that Jesus Christ is referred to as the great God: “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.” Jesus is the great God whose glorious appearing we’re all looking forward to. Hallelujah!

You have to believe and accept God’s testimony of Jesus Christ. Why is this important? It’s because if you don’t know who Jesus truly is, you can’t serve Him, you can’t live for Him. Moreover, nobody will go to hell today or be condemned because of sin, for Jesus was already condemned for the sins of every man, woman, boy and girl on the face of the earth. He paid the full penalty for sin.

Therefore, the primary reason people will go to hell is for not believing and accepting God’s testimony of Jesus—who He is, and what He came to do.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of Jesus Christ, in whom dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. I believe and acknowledge Him as the only true God and eternal life to whom is all glory, majesty, dominion and praise forever. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:

John 1:1-3: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

John 1:14 – And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Colossians 1:15-20: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence. 19 For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell; 20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

Titus 2:11-13 – For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
