Hi, I hope you stay around awhile. Yes, I have come to see that Jesus is God. Fully human and fully divine. . . . not a mortal God. God has revealed Himself to mankind in many ways. . . . but, the final and greatest way is in the person of Jesus. He is the "word" because He is God's complete revelation of Himself to us. God . . . . in Christ. . . . reconciling the world unto Himself. Nothing in scripture makes sense without the identity of Jesus. And most certainly, the mystery of godliness is great: He was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, taken up in glory. That is how we now know God. . .He is the fullness of Him who fills all and all. . . not someone to bypass on our way to God. . . HE is the way. . . . for all eternity. . . He is who we know. The bible points to a person. . . . cover to cover. Isn't scripture where we were all seeking God? Isn't scripture a revelation of God? Scripture is the revelation of who? Jesus Christ. . . front to back. A knowledge outside of Him as God. . . . that . . . is another faith. The light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. In the OT people looked forward to His coming. . . they were searching for Him because God promised. . . they kept saying "How long?" "How long?". He finally comes after a 400 year period of darkness. . . shows up and is rejected by all but a few. . . . even after the resurrection there are only 120 waiting for Him . . . . a lot of them women. . over 500 had seen Him post resurrection. . . . they knew it was Him . . . Herod even knew He rose from the dead. . . he paid off the guards! Even after being there and seeing these things people still denied who He was. . . . to this day people still deny it in various forms. . . . denying who He Himself claimed to be and calling Him someone else. . . . denying He ever existed or indifference to who He is. . . it is all the same thing. It is also how we end up with the major and minor religions. . . . they all take Him in part. My thoughts anyway.
