The Ultimate Word

Verse of the day: Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

The Book of John tells us that Jesus, the Word, became flesh, and dwelt among us. God incarnate, here with us. What an incredible thought! Prior to Jesus coming to us, God communicated His existence in various ways. His creation, nature, speaks of His existence. Our conscience is proof of His existence, for even an unsaved person knows, and feels guilt, when they do something they perceive to be wrong. Then God spoke to man through the prophets, further solidifying His existence. Finally, and ultimately, He sent His Son, our Savior, our Lord, the Word. The Word, because He is the Ultimate Communication from God by which we can truly know who God is. Jesus told us that to see Him is to see the Father. To study who Jesus is, how He lived, how He responded to, and dealt with people, tells us so much of who God is, and about His nature. He is the only One who has ever seen God. Therefore, He, the Word, is the only One who is supremely qualified to communicate to us in respect to our Heavenly Father. He is the Glory of God, and it is He whom we fall short of (no one else). Romans tell us that we fall short of the glory of God (Jesus). He is superior to all (even angels), is Creator, has conquered death and the grave, and now sits at the right hand of the Father. Yes, this is our God, our Savior, the Word of God, Jesus Christ. The bottom line is that if we desire to know more about who our God is, as His children, then we must spend more time with the Word, and in His Word.
