And Let All the Angels of God Worship Him - Part 772

"Thou Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of thine hands. They shall perish, but thou remainest and they shall wax old as doth a garment and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail." (Hebrews 1:10-12)

But who is the Lord? Who is the Lord that was made a little lower than the angels and crowned with glory and honour, and was set over the works of Thy hands? This is a question that seemingly blinds the eyes of those that do not fully seek Jesus and His righteousness and as a consequence has created confusion among believers. It does not have to be this way.

The book of Hebrews provides key insights into who the Lord is but the key to understanding these scriptures is to seek Jesus with all your heart, soul, strength and mind. Why?

Because Christ Jesus is the Apostle and High Priest of our profession. (Hebrews 3:1)

Because Jesus Christ "being made perfect became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him." (Hebrews 5:9)

Because "Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, [was] crowned with glory and honour that He by the grace of God should taste death for every man. For it became Him for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings." (Hebrews 2:9-10)

We also know that "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets hath in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds -- who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person and upholding all things by the Word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high." (Hebrews 1:1-3)

The Word that was with God in the beginning and according to the first chapter of John was God was veiled in flesh. (John 1:1-18) The very same Living Word that was both with and in God from the beginning was manifested in the flesh. For in the beginning was the Word. But without the Word of God, no one would be capable of even understanding how God made all things after the counsel of His own will.

In other words, Jesus fleshly manifestation - being the purposed counsel of God - came forth as the revealed and final counselled Word of God. This same God counselled with Himself in the beginning. In revealing Jesus as the manifestation of the counselled Word of God, Jesus became the counselled Word of God with us.

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified by the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." (I Timothy 3:16)

Jesus being the embodiment of the counselled Words of eternal life meant that God Himself was now manifest in a veil of flesh. Therefore, Jesus was and is the counselled SEED of the Holy Spirit! God‘s blood, Word and life flowing in Jesus' veins, being the counselled eternal life Words of His Father, the Spirit of God.

We know this because when the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in his sleep he said, "Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son and thou shalt call His name Jesus for He shall save His people from their sins." (Matthew 1:18-22)

"And they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is God with us" (Matthew 1:21-23)

JESUS, the counselled Word of God now conceived by the Holy Spirit, into the womb of a surrogate mother named Mary! Jesus, being the very same counselled Word of God, that made all things in the beginning. Jesus, the very same counselled Word of God who by His counselled spiritual Word brings forth what we now hear and see. Neither is there salvation in any other. Jesus -- the only name under heaven whereby we can be saved.

Therefore, seek the truth for yourself and let that same truth set you free. Search the written Word so that the light of truth can enlighten you too as a dove descending from heaven. The scales of darkness previously upon your eyes will disappear when you apply the eye salve of the glorious light of the Gospel of God into your heart. The gospel that is seen in the face of Jesus the Christ. Let His Light shine upon you. His light being much brighter than even the noon day sun.

As the scriptures state, the SEED of the Word of God's offspring are blessed. In due time, the sceptre of God’s righteousness in Jesus the Christ will overpower the erroneous teachings of the so-called church fathers. And as a consequence, we will continue by God’s grace to preach peace in Jesus name!
