Yes, of course, 2+2=4 always. What would you do if you had a teacher telling you or your children that what was written in the math books was wrong. The teacher kept teaching their own version of math. They ignoring the math books, made up their own math. Unheard of, right? Hmmmmm….
Well, I have a question for you? What is the Testimony of Jesus Christ? Is the Testimony when He found you and saved you from your own path of destruction?
If the Lord returned today, would He find faith in His people? Would He find us allowing the Holy Spirit to bring out the Testimony of Jesus Christ to the fullest? Does He see the Holy Spirit in charge of His flock? Have we disciplined ourselves to know the discernment of His own Spirit within us to know His voice and His way?
Why did Jesus Christ come from the Father? I know the fundamental reason was to save us from our sins, but there is some deeper purpose of the Father’s heart here, that we need to have illuminated to us.
When Jesus Christ walked the earth, He looked like any of us, except He knew Someone in the Highest Place. He revealed our Heavenly Father to us….. We never knew God as a Father prior to Jesus’s day on this earth…… Our Heavenly Father wanted us to know Him as Abba. Jesus told Philip in John 14;9, Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, Show us the Father?
Jesus Christ is our Savior. However, He was presented to our eyes and ears a Divine Nature in a man form. Jesus Christ was so different from us, but like us in humanity. But His ways and purpose were definitely heavenly directed. He was a Divine Deity in a man. The Second Person of the Trinity showing us God’s heart, His ways and His intention for mankind.
Jesus’ ways and words were and still are a puzzle to the natural man. That is the closed heaven or the veil of unbelief until we turn and believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and our Savior and King.
The rift of sin and disobedience had a closed heaven that Jesus Christ came to open. So then there was little understanding of God so everyone did what was right in their own eyes….. Sort of like believing that 2+2=5, well, because 2+2=4 is so closed minded. Selah!
Jesus came to set the standard again…. and His standard was high, way out of our reach. That is why He came as a Savior and King of Heaven, then to send to us His Holy Spirit to dwell in and with us….. Now His standard is or should be ours. What a King!!!!!
The scripture states in 1 John 5;10-12, He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
It is also written in Revelation 19:10 as John was listening to a voice that came from the throne in heaven and….I fell at this feet to worship him. But he said to me, See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophecy.
I do not know how it has trickled down that our story of Jesus taking over our lives is the Testimony of Jesus Christ. I have scriptures to prove what is God’s witness. Our stories are great, however, they are dim to the shining of the glory of God and truth that our words should testify. The words that Jesus Christ spoke on this earth was the Testimony of our Heavenly Father. He always pointed to the kingdom of God or to our Heavenly Father….. He was reflecting His Father and soon to be ours! Peter and Paul had great testifying opportunities….. Their words spoke of the scriptures showing that Jesus Christ is the Christ and Son of God. The testimony is not about us, our testifying is and should be of Jesus Christ.
So as we start to read chapter 1 of the Book of Revelation, please meditate on the symbolism of the description of the presentation of the Great I Am…… His Holy Spirit now is given to reign in and through us. He is our Light to the spiritual realm, as well as, the Holy Spirit shows the world now Jesus Christ, through us…. Selah!
There are two steps that John spells out for us in 1 John 5;4-5, For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And is the victory that has overcome the world- our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? This is number one- we believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and only He can save us from our sins, we also have been born again from heaven.
#2-1 John 5;6, This is He who came by water and blood- Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. John 14;16-17, And I will pray to the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever- the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him no knows Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
John 15;26, But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.
So we can conclude that if we want to testify of Our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, we need God’s Spirit within us. We need Him to tell us what He hears from heaven and tell us of things to come…. as well as illuminate the ever growing revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
If you haven’t got yourself a copy of my book, pick one up and join the study! The title is Jesus Christ, The King Of Kings And Lord Of Lords, The Judge Of His Creation.
If you want to be baptized with fire as the first followers of Jesus, ask our Heavenly Father because Jesus Christ said in Luke 11;13, If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him! Hey, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever- Hebrews 13;8. The Father and the Son still want their Spirit to be in and with us…Jesus stated in John 4;23, But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
Selah!
So ask! Do not give up until you receive the Third Person of the Trinity who will be with you forever! Then we can do the work that comes from and through God and not work for God! Huh?…… Selah!!
