(He Is The Embodiment Of The Godhead)

TO THE BIBLE :
1 Timothy 3:16 AMPC
“…Great and important and weighty, we confess, is the hidden truth (the mystic secret) of godliness. He [God] was made visible in human flesh, justified and vindicated in the [Holy] Spirit, was seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, [and] taken up in glory.”
LET’S TALK
“Oh my, Jesus Christ is God!” Justus said aloud to himself as he read a tract presented to him by a lady on his street. Prior to this time, he never gave any thought to this truth—that Jesus is Himself God. There’re some, like Justus, who due to lack of understanding of the Scriptures are confused about the deity of Jesus. Yet the Scriptures are unambiguous about it. Even the portion we just read in our opening verse leaves no one in doubt as to the fact that the one being referred to as God is Jesus.
Others have also asked, “If Jesus is God, how can He set Himself at His own right hand in the heavenly places as stated in Ephesians 1:19-20?” First, you have to understand the extraordinary nature of God in which He’s able to manifest Himself in different ways; it’s the mystery of His nature.
The Bible tells us about the divine nature of the Godhead in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; one God manifest in three separate persons. We’re never going to see three Gods in Heaven or three thrones with the Father sitting on one, the Son on another and then the Holy Spirit on the third one; no! It’s only Jesus because in Him dwells the fullness of the Godhead bodily! (Colossians 2:9)
Colossians 1:19 says, “For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell”. Recall that at the baptism of Jesus, as He came out of the water, the heavens opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him. Simultaneously, a voice spoke from Heaven and said, “…This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17). What an extraordinary manifestation of the three persons: The Son is baptised in water, and right away He’s filled with the Holy Spirit, and the Father speaks from Heaven!
The first time the angels saw God Almighty in a body was when Jesus was born in Bethlehem. The Bible says, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…” (John 1:14). God became flesh and dwelt among us, and yet His presence and His voice would speak from Heaven. Amazing!
GO DEEPER:
1 John 5:7; Colossians 2:9; Colossians 1:19 AMPC
SPEAK
I worship you, Lord Jesus, for in you dwells all the fullness of the divine perfection, powers and attributes of divinity. Lord, you’re the complete embodiment of Deity, the outward expression or image of the invisible God. You’re the King eternal, gracious, loving and kind! I love you with all my heart! Blessed be your Name forever!
