Only in Jesus!

Image
Jesus of Nazareth unlocks the Hebrew scriptures and our understanding of the last days, and he reveals the nature and the mysteries of God . Jesus unveils the “ mysteries of God ,” and only he is qualified to reveal the nature of the “ unseen God .” Only in him are  all the promises of God fulfilled. He is the key that unlocks the Hebrew Bible and explains the “ times and seasons .” This is especially so in the  Book of Revelation  which is a “ revealing of Jesus Christ .” He is the absolute Lord who reigns over all things from God’s Throne – (Revelation 5:9-14).

The Living Word

Jesus is the Word made flesh through whom the glory of God is revealed, the same Word by which God created all things . The  Gospel of John  identifies Jesus as the ‘ Logos ’, the “ Word ” through which God made the Universe. This theme is prominent in the  Gospel of John . It builds on traditional ideas from the Hebrew Bible about how God created the world, especially life through His spoken Word. Jesus of Nazareth is the Living Expression of that creative word.

Garantía de la Resurrección

El Don del Espíritu es las primeros frutos de la resurrección corporal y la Garantía de nuestra participación en la Nueva Creación venidera . El apóstol Pablo presenta a Abraham como el gran modelo de fe. Dios contó su fe como “ justicia ” cuando era incircunciso, lo que significa que Dios justificó al Patriarca aparte de las “ obras de la Ley ”. Así, él se convirtió en el padre de todos los hombres que también lo son “ por la fe .” La circuncisión fue añadida después de la promesa como confirmación de la fe justificadora de Abraham.

His Cruciform Path

To follow Jesus requires a lifetime of self-denial and sacrificial service for others and a willingness to lose everything for the Gospel . When Jesus dispatched his disciples to announce the “ Good News ” to the “ lost sheep of Israel ,” he warned that they would find themselves as “ sheep among wolves .” Hostile men would haul them before “ councils and whip them in their synagogues ,” and they would be hated “ by all men for my sake .” That was the harsh reality Christ’s disciples discovered when they proclaimed his message to the world.

Fleeting Power

Only God’s kingdom will prevail and endure. All other political powers and regimes are fleeting. Already they are passing away . Despite human pretensions, History demonstrates  without exception  the impermanence of political power, human ideologies, and governments. Rome endured for a thousand years, but that Empire fell all the same. Like human life, political power is impermanent, and regimes and even the greatest empires collapse unexpectedly and often quickly when their allotted time expires. Only the “ Kingdom of God ” will endure forever.
