JESUS IS INDEED GOD

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. (John 1:1-5)
Jesus is the eternal and living Word. Fully God and fully man, the God man. The Bible teaches that in Christ, God personally revealed Himself in human flesh. Note! to see Him is to see God (John 12:45; 14:9)-to receive Him is to receive God (Mark 9:37)-to know Him is to know God (John 8:19)-to honor Him is to honor God (John 5:23)-and to reject Him is to reject God (Luke 10:16). May I say, He is the vine, the source of life; we as believers are the branches, the channels of His life so to speak.
The Christian life is Jesus, living His life in and through us as we walk in dependence upon Him. It is only as we draw our life from Him that we bear lasting fruit. "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me" (Galatians 2:20). Child of God, to what extent are you looking to Jesus as the true source of your security, significance, and fulfillment? You think about that.
