“He Is One with the Father”

He Is One with the Father

John 10:30 “I and the Father are one.”

John 10:36 “What about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’?”

John 14:10-11 “Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.”

THE PERFECT PICTURE OF GOD IS JESUS.

Hebrews 1:1-3 “In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.”

Colossians 1:15 “He is the image of the invisible God.”

Colossians 2:9 “For in Christ all the fullness of Deity lives in bodily form.”

-His words.

-The Father is living in him.

-The miracles.

• Have an unusual entrance into life. • Be without sin. • Manifest the supernatural in the form of miracles..• Have an acute sense of difference. • Speak the greatest words ever spoken. • Have a lasting and universal influence. • Satisfy the spiritual hunger in man. • Exercise power over death.

II Peter 1:1 “Our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.”
