“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18).
How Jesus realized and appreciated the phase of His mission on earth: Declaring the true nature of His Father!
A noted Bible scholar once said, concerning the Incarnation, “We know now that God is like this that we have seen in Jesus. He is Christ-like. And if He is, He is a good God and trustworthy.
If the heart that is back of the universe is like this gentle heart that broke upon the Cross, He can have my heart without qualifications and without reservations.
I know nothing higher to say of God than that He should live like Christ….
“Strange, a man lived among us and when we think of God we think of Him in terms of this man or He is not good.
We may transfer every single moral quality in Jesus to God without loss or degradation to our thought of God. On the contrary, by thinking of Him in terms of Jesus we heighten our views of God.
All those who have tried to think of Him in other terms have lowered and impoverished our idea of Him.”
Confession: Jesus has declared God the Father to me. I know what God is like – He’s like Jesus! God is a good God – and I do trust Him
