Jesus Is the Word of God - PART 142

God is. God does not change. We use the descriptive title God when we by words endeavour to communicate one with another concerning spiritual observations and truths. Adam is an earthy image of God. The scriptures declare that Jesus is the beginning of the creation of God. This does not advance the thought that Jesus was a created being apart from God.

In fact, in accord with the written Word, Jesus is the Word of God. We see this in the sense when God decided within Himself, to show Himself in a created form. He decided to reveal Himself - revealed by the written Word. This is why, in this context, Jesus is and was the beginning of the creation of God. Therefore, Adam is an earthly image of Jesus because Jesus came forth from the bosom of God. He did not come forth as another person but as God Himself in human form.

Another way of looking at this example is to ask yourself, "What is God’s name?" Of course, God is not a name. God is a descriptive title. Today, we have numerous descriptive titles - books upon books rendering descriptive titles. Similarly, we have organisations built upon descriptive titles. A perfect example are the JeHoVaH witnesses (or other religious organizations in competition) that render JaHWeH Jews.

The common thread is JHVH or JHWH which are both admittedly incommunicable as a name. Neither is communicable in its base presentation. And yet some, in order to bestow on the Spirit of God a name, fill the blanks in with vowels. They think by doing this they are doing the Holy Spirit a great service. To further entrench their own deception, they then declare that they now are God’s witnesses.

However, the New Testament presents neither one or the other, declaring instead that Jesus is the only name whereby we can find salvation. There is no other name under Heaven, whereby anyone can be saved. The early believers went everywhere preaching Jesus. The name of Jesus, who was conceived of the Holy Spirit into the womb of a surrogate mother Mary, revealed to humankind that this Holy thing (note the term "thing" because in God’s eyes the Body of Jesus taken from Mary’s sin prone body was cursed) was the prophesied Saviour.

The Spiritual name Jesus, being the Spirit of God manifested name. Why? Even after the resurrection the name Jesus remained. When Paul said, "Who are you Lord?" the Lord said, I AM JESUS. The pronunciation of the name is “received“ in the English language. It is not translated. Received. That is why we have an alphabetical letter "J" Neither the letter “E” nor the letter “I" carried the name Jesus into the English language. We required a "J" Now we have the name of Jesus.

Other religious organizations baptise people into the name of the Father S and Holy Spirit. However, none of these are a name. Jesus said to baptise people in His name, which is Jesus. Other organizations tweak this by saying that we are to baptise into the name Father, Son and Holy Spirit,but only in the authority of Jesus. In this latter example, the organizations state that we must not baptise into the Name Jesus. The Baptists are an example. The Baptists emphasize water immersion and yet continue to baptize into the descriptive titles.

This bodes the question. Where are you? Are you like Adam and Eve hiding in the bushes of religious denominations rather than obeying the Written Word of the Holy Spirit through the mouths of His chosen apostles who are Jesus witnesses? These are the chosen apostles who instructed us to teach these teachings - the scriptures - unto the uttermost parts of the earth.

Let me leave you with this scripture reference as you ponder the content of this message. Whatsoever you do in word thought or deed, do ALL in the name of Jesus.
