THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD - PART 399

YOUR THRONE O’ GOD IS FOREVER AND EVER.

Unto the Son it was said, "Your throne O' God is forever and ever." God has glorified His Son JESUS, Seed of His Holy Spirit, which SEED was conceived into the womb of a young virgin named Mary. The child's GIVEN NAME was to JESUS declared by an angelic messenger of God to be Immanuel which by interpretation is God with us. Yes, JESUS is God manifest in the flesh, appearing as man. Indeed He was, for His sin-prone flesh appearance was in semblance to one of Adam’s race.

In other words, JESUS was fathered by the Holy Spirit. God having declared JESUS to be His Son, for JESUS came forth from the SEED of the Holy Spirit. The child clothed upon in flesh but the Spirit of life within the flesh was the Life of God. Not a part of God as some have suggested but rather, altogether God. For it is declared in the scriptures that in JESUS dwelt all the fullness of the Godhead bodily!

One cannot see God for God is Spirit. In fact, no man has ever seen God. It's like the analogy of the sun. One cannot look directly at the sun or they would be blinded by its light. But one can look at the light of the sun when that same light is shone upon the moon and all will be well.

So it is with JESUS. Jesus is a light much brighter than the noon day sun which one could not look upon. However, when the Light of God is veiled as it were in flesh, then one can look upon the light of God. As it is declared, one can now see the glorious gospel of God in the face of JESUS who is God Himself manifest in a veil of flesh appearing in fashion as one of Adam’s sin prone race.

If we go back to the beginning, when Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden, they were naked. It was in this unclothed state that they sinned. At Calvary JESUS also was unclothed but in the latter example, it was that unclothed state of flesh alone -- JESUS -- who bore our sin. It was in His unclothed body that He paid the price for the redemption of all who believe and receive. There is no additional requirements to this redemption! Why? Because with this one sacrifice, the demands of justice were negated. That which was sacrificed at Calvary was the body in which the Spirit of God was pleased to dwell. We crucified the sinless, yet prone to sin body of the Lord of Glory JESUS!

This is why there is no obtainable salvation in any other. For at Calvary, God as a Son laid down His life for us. How does anyone think that they are ever going to escape from the wrath of God if they count His sacrifice as meaningless? Yes, death was the penalty for sin.

While the world through much of its proliferation of so-called worldly wisdom chooses to ignore God, their unbelief does not negate that GOD is or that God loves us. While they might attempt to prove that dumb matter created wisdom, God's handiwork continues to show forth. While there are those that profess themselves to be wise, in so doing, as the scriptures state, they often become as fools. They become as fools simply because the Heavens will continue to declare the Glory of God. The earth will continue to show forth God’s handiwork.

Rather than sinking deeper into the barnyard of sin, let's return to God for God has opened wide His arms of love for you and I. Come home today. Ask God for forgiveness and let Him put a ring on you finger claiming you as His own. For He and He alone has paid the price for our redemption.
