Welcome~

Hello and Welcome~


The world is blind to these SEVEN, pivotal facts:

1. The Bible communicates Heaven’s 'Multi-millennial Strategic Plan for Humanity'.

2. There are SEVEN ages appointed for humanity.

3. We are nearing the end of the THIRD age, a pivotal turning point in this strategy.

4. A GREAT falling away from the Christian faith is predicted during the ending days of this THIRD age, as a result of backsliding, general lukewarmness and outright apostasy among the heretofore faithful. Look around and this you will clearly see.

5. Biblical prophecies have been and remain seeds of human history.

6. Yet-fulfilled prophecies, unfolding apace, are worthy of diligent study.

7. Now is the time to get and stay on ‘the right side of Bible prophecy’.

Is Jesus God? (Poem, Part 1)

See the series here

This series addresses questions from former Muslim colleagues:

1. How can Jesus be God, if God is ONE?’, many mull.

2. Why believe what Paul wrote when he wasn’t a disciple?

3. What if God killed Jesus for making Himself God’s equal?

4. satan tried to beat God, and lost. Was Jesus his sequel?’

5. Why should Jesus be the focus? Many died before He came!

6. What to believe when ‘post-Jesus prophets’ make different claims?

~~~~~~~

Tell me, is Jesus God Almighty or not?

Who is Jesus in God’s grand strategic plot?

On this issue, why is there such divisiveness?

Is there any way to end all dubiousness? 


The answers to these questions are clear, …until they are not.

He is God, until to Him a body God would allot.

Divisions and doubts end when His Word we don’t dilute,

But allow His Spirit to ‘rightly divide’ His Truth. 1


While there are many ways His Truth can be divided,

On this issue, clear division He has provided.

This is the denominator He designates:

Pre-incarnate, incarnate, and post-incarnate.


Pre- and post-incarnate, Jesus with no blood to shed,

Is imbued with the fullness of The Triune Godhead.

He is the physical image of God, invisible,

Man, glorified with no beginning or end, immortal.


To redeem ‘the elect’ from our eternal damnation,

He willingly submitted to The Godhead’s decision,

To disrobe of His Glory, and become a man, like me,

A human with blood, who would succumb to mortality! 2


So thus, The Godhead, Who is ONE, separated, 

In ways we can’t, though as triune, we’re created.

As God and Lord, He walked on Earth many times since Adam. 

But living among us as a man?! What a conundrum!! 3


When He said, ‘Before Abraham was, I AM!’, folks were shocked!

Their fundamental belief that ‘God is ONE’, He had rocked.

This amazing assertion was meant to signal clearly,

It was He Who spoke to Moses on Mt. Horeb, fiery!


When He declared to be One with The Almighty,

Folks were furious at His alleged blasphemy!

As God, He received worship and forgave sins while on Earth,

Then He died as God’s Lamb, so we could share in His re-birth. 4 

 

Hidden across the ages from countless generations,

This mystery was hinted in Bible publications.

Even in Eden, devils very likely understood,

This mystery that’s now revealed to God’s elect sainthood. 5 


The mystery of ‘God-in-Christ-in-us’ we embrace,

When by faith we believe, in death, Jesus took our place.

For those who discount or deny His Deity,

From them, this kind of faith is guaranteed …to flee. 6


There were many prophets to us God has sent.

Others just decided this group to augment.

To test and discern the first group from the second,

He says, ‘Wait to see if what they say will happen.’ 7


Jesus said He would die, then be raised to life again.

Many such things He said when He walked among His men.

Since talk is cheap, He backed it up with results, documented.

Please tell me, what have other gods said, …and then demonstrated?


God, through Jesus, made us all in His image,

A triune spiritsoul and body package.

Yet like Him, each of us ...is one,

‘Me, myself and I’, three …in one.


NB: Counterfeits can only follow that which is first REAL and TRUE!

1 See: 2 Timothy 2:15

2 Jesus told Adam, ‘The day you sin, you will die.’ Adam sinned, and from God was separated, spiritually dead. To save us from eternal spiritual death, God decided to die in our place. Thus, Jesus came as a mortal man, with blood to shed, to perform this task. 

3 You who believe God is only Spirit, not flesh, please tell me, Who was the Man Whom Abraham met and served just before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 18? Abraham called Him, ‘Lord’ and ‘Judge of all the Earth’. What, pray tell, do you call Him? God, through Jesus, made humans in His image -- as triune or tripartite (3 parts) beings: spirit, soul and body, yet like Him, we each are ...one. See: Muslims and Jews Agree. See also: What is an Epiphany?

4 ‘In Revelation, an angel instructed the apostle John to only worship God. (Revelation 19:10) Several times in Scripture, Jesus receives worship. (Matthew 2:11, 14:33, 28:9, 17, Luke 24:52, and John 9:38) He never rebuked these people for worshiping Him. If Jesus were not God, He would have told people to not worship Him, just as the angel in Revelation did. Beyond these, there are many other passages of Scripture that argue for Jesus being God.’ SeeIs Jesus God?

5 The elect are all people Whom God fore-knew, when given the choice, would believe and embrace Jesus’ substitutionary death and receive His gift of eternal life. Whether we believe or not, He respects our choice, but warns us of the penalty for not believing: eternal separation (spiritual death) from Him in a place He calls hell. His decision and message, not mine. This core Bible message is depicted in the parable Jesus told in Luke 19:11-27. Re. what devils may have learned in Eden, see: Humans' DNA Hacked (Poem)

6 ‘…Even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age (satan) has blinded, who do not believe, lest the Light of the Gospel of the Glory of Christ, Who is the image of God, should shine on them. For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus The Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake. For it is the God who commanded Light to shine out of darkness, Who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the Glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.’ (2 Corinthians 4:3-6)

7 See: Deuteronomy 18:21-22 and Jeremiah 28:8-9
