[2/5, 23:15] Hope Yakubu: The entire humanity can only be lighted up or Illuminated by Jesus,as long as you are a man and you are on the earth,you can only be Illuminated by Christ and this is not a post resurrect phenomenon
Everyman right from the man Adam cannot be Illuminated except by chirst, Jesus was all that men needed to know about God, Christ has been the revelation of God and man must be willing to accept him...
[2/5, 23:26] Hope Yakubu: In John 1:18
"No man hath seen God at anytime,the only begotten son,which is in the bosom of the father,he hath declared him"
The word bossom does not mean Jesus was the body of God,it means Jesus is the inner most thought of God.
And cannot separate God's thought from who he is.
The word declare means to unfold,it implies authoritative communication and the communication will be from a first head witness and first knowledge and that knowledge cannot be disputed.
All the hearers needs to do is to receive.
[2/5, 23:35] Hope Yakubu: Act 10:7
And when the angels spake unto Cornelius was departed,he called two of his household servants,and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually."
Cornelius had the authoritative communication because he was in the vision.
[2/5, 23:44] Hope Yakubu: Act 15:4
"And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostle and elders,and they declare all things that God had done with them"
Paul and Barnabas declared what they did .
In verse 14
Simon was declaring what his first hand experience about "EXAGOMAI"meaning you are bringing information within your authoritative communication.
[2/5, 23:51] Hope Yakubu: John 1:18
No man hath seen God at any time,the only begotten son,which is in the bosom of the father,he hath declared him."
These shows that Jesus had authoritative communication and man is meant to listen.
Why is Jesus authoritative?on what basis he had authoritative communication?
Colossians 1:12.
Giving thanks unto the father,which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saint in light."
[2/6, 00:01] Hope Yakubu: Jesus is the first born of creation in verse 15, means he was here before creation.
Jesus was the intention of God before creation.
Verse 17 means things exist and happen because of his intention.
The word image is the word"eiko" meaning representation.
The epistle called God invisible, it does not mean in the old testament God was invisible but now he is visible.NO!
It means Jesus is all you can see about the God you cannot see.
Jesus is the full representation of God not blurry representation.
God can only be found in Christ.
