EXAMINING THE TITLE OF JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD.

TEXT: JOHN 10:30-32  

Key verse: 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.”
Many stumble at what the Son of God means. They say, “If Jesus is the Son of God that means God has a wife.” That is human reasoning. Let us look at it this way: God made man in His image and man is three persons in one - the spirit, soul, and body. A man may be lying down in one place while his spirit goes elsewhere. Sometimes, the spirit and the soul are joined together although they can be separated. Man is three persons as seen in God. In Genesis 1:27, God said let us make man to resemble us: We have one God but He exists in three separate Persons; God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit, just as man is spirit, soul, and body, but one man.
When Jesus came down to the world as a man, the Father was still in heaven. Every person that is born as a child is the son or daughter of somebody through the copulation of a man and a woman but in the case of Jesus, the mother had no copulation with any man; hence no mortal man can claim to be His father. Jesus is the begotten Son of God, which means that He has His origin in God. He is God and one of the three Persons in the Godhead.
Jesus died for the whole world. He finished the work of human salvation before He left the earth. Why would a man claim that God sent him to humanity with a message different from that of Jesus? Jesus finished all that was required for human salvation before He left the earth. So, whoever said God sent him is not true because what is perfectly completed needs no additional work. When Jesus resurrected from the dead, He told His disciples that they should go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Jesus said this because He knew no messenger or prophet was coming into the world with a different message from God. Jesus had finished the final sacrifice and delivered the final word or message required for the salvation of all men. For this reason, Jesus, being God Himself, cannot send a man to humanity with another message.
Thought for the day: Jesus is the Son of God, the only way to heaven.
Song for the day: Jesus must be honored (3x), in my life every day
Bible reading for the day: Ecclesiastes 1-3; 2 Corinthians 9

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
