“No man has ever seen God at
any time; the only begotten Son of God, Who is in the intimate presence of the
Father, has declared Him. The Son has
revealed Him and brought Him out where He can be seen; He has interpreted Him
and He has made Him known.”
John 1:18
If you really think about it,
Christianity is a pretty crazy thing. We
believe in someone who is a spirit being and has never been seen. It is accepted as a fundamental truth that
God is invisible and without form. It
takes unwavering faith to accept the existence of God. It’s a choice. We don’t have to believe He exists, but those
who don’t will end up regretting it in the end.
God gave
the children of Israel the Law thru Moses.
Christ gave us grace and truth, and as a result revealed to us the
Father and His nature thru His life.
Being part of the Trinity, Christ is both God’s Son and God. I have
chosen to believe that without understanding it because I believe the Bible is
the flawless word provided by God thru spiritual men He chose to use.
As a side
note, the simplest way to explain the Trinity is to say it’s like water. Water can
come in 3 different forms, liquid, solid (ice) & vapor (steam), yet it is
still water.
Trinity verses:
John 10:30; 1 John 5:7-8; Genesis 1:26 to name a scant few.
Jesus Christ
has revealed to the world the mercy of the Father. Our responsibility is to give our lives over
to Him and live according to His standard for living. We can see Almighty God in the words and
actions of Jesus as told in scripture.
The world today needs to be able to see Christ in our words and
deeds. Submit to the Spirit’s leading
and be a godly influence in your segment of this vast world. Until next time, walk with the King and be
blessing!

1 Timothy 6:16 Amplified Bible (AMP) “Who alone has immortality [in the sense of exemption from
every kind of death] and lives in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever
seen or can see. Unto Him be honor and everlasting power and dominion. Amen (so be it).”
