WHO IS THIS "CHRIST" THAT WE WORSHIP ?
John 17:5 (TLB)
And now, Father,
reveal my glory as I stand in your presence,
the glory we shared before the world
began.
John 1:1-5 (TLB)
Before anything else existed, there was
Christ, with God.
{2} He has always been alive and is himself
God.
{3} He created everything there is--
nothing exists that he didn't make.
{4} Eternal life is in him,
and this life gives light to all
mankind.
{5} His life is the light that shines
through the darkness--
and the darkness can never extinguish
it.
Heb 1:1-3 (TLB)
Long ago God spoke in many different
ways
to our fathers through the prophets
(in visions, dreams, and even face to
face),
telling them little by little about
his plans.
{2} But now in these days
he has spoken to us through his
Son
to whom he has given everything
and through whom he made the world
and everything there is.
{3} God's Son shines out with God's glory,
and all that God's Son is and does
marks him as God.
He regulates the universe
by the mighty power of his command.
He is the one who died to cleanse
us
and clear our record of all sin,
and then sat down in highest honor
beside the great God of heaven.
Mat 3:16-17 (KJV)
And Jesus, when he was baptized,
went up straightway out of the water:
and, lo, the heavens were opened unto
him,
and he saw the Spirit of God descending
like a dove,
and lighting upon him:
{17} And lo a voice from heaven, saying,
This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well
pleased.
Mat 17:1,2, 5 (TLB)
Six days later Jesus took Peter, James,
and his brother John
to the top of a high and lonely hill,
{2} and as they watched, his appearance
changed
so that his face shone like the
sun
and his clothing became dazzling white....
{5} But even as he said it,
a bright cloud came over them,
and a voice from the cloud said,
"This is my beloved Son,
and I am wonderfully pleased with
him.
Obey him."
