JESUS IS JEHOVAH, THE I AM!
EX. 3:14 |
The Great significance of these statements is the fact that in a
Trinity Jesus is considered to be "God the Son." Yet, IF He were
"God the Son" shouldn't He be empowered by "God the Son"
instead of the Father? Thus we find
Jesus revealing that He is the Father revealed in flesh! "God manifest in flesh!" 1 Timothy
3:16, Isaiah 9:6, John 10:30. Jesus was NOT "God the Son," but
He was and is God! All the fullness of God dwelleth in Him!
Colossians 2:9.
So why the confusing language? John 16:25 tells us there
is coming a day when He will no longer speak in proverbs but will show us plainly
of the Father! Now IF God were a Trinity, why wouldn't He show us of the
Holy Spirit also? The reason is clear! God is NOT a Trinity!
The reason He spoke in proverbs was so that they wouldn't know
who He was! Matthew 13:13. But mostly so that His plan would be
fulfilled. "Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had
they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of
glory." To fulfill His plan of being our spotless Lamb, He had to
speak in enigmatic language, dark sayings, and parables. Otherwise, they
would not have crucified Him. But to those who
are hungrily seeking after Him, He will be revealed.
