The Exalted Lamb

Image
The death and exaltation of Jesus are inextricably linked in the Book of Revelation . The Divine plan to redeem humanity and the Creation itself is unveiled in its visions, and the death, resurrection, and enthronement of the Son put this plan into action. His sovereignty is the result of his faithful obedience unto death. However, he is no tyrant. He does not subjugate his enemies through violence. Instead, he “ shepherds the nations ” and purchases men from every “ tribe and people and tongue ” through his shed blood.

Spirituality

Image
The spiritually-minded man understands that the proclamation of Christ Crucified is the Power and Wisdom of God  - 1 Corinthians 2:14. Overused by the Church and society, the English term ‘spiritual’ has become meaningless. To some, it is synonymous with  religion . To be  religious  is to be  spiritual . To others, it refers to supernatural things not of this physical universe, creatures that are otherworldly, noncorporeal, invisible, and live beyond the realm of time.

Is the world still waiting for his enthronement at a future date? What about the “ revolt ” of nations and kings against the Son of God? Is it a prediction of a coming war between Jesus and earthly governments -  (Psalm 2:1-6)?

La Garantía de la Resurrección

Image
El Don del Espíritu es las primeros frutos de la resurrección corporal y la Garantía de nuestra participación en la Nueva Creación venidera . El apóstol Pablo presenta a Abraham como el gran modelo de fe. Dios contó su fe como “ justicia ” cuando era incircunciso, lo que significa que Dios justificó al Patriarca aparte de las “ obras de la Ley ”. Así, él se convirtió en el padre de todos los hombres que también lo son “ por la fe .” La circuncisión fue añadida después de la promesa como confirmación de la fe justificadora de Abraham.

The Logos

Image
Jesus is the Living Word in flesh, the true Tabernacle where the Glory of God is revealed. He is the man who reveals God’s Grace and Truth – John 1:14. The Prologue of the  Gospel of John  presents key themes to be expanded in his gospel account. Jesus is the ‘ Logos ’ (λογος), the “ Word that became flesh .” In Christ, Life and Light are revealed to penitent men and women. He is the true “ Tabernacle ” where God’s “ Glory ” resides. John employs imagery from the history of Israel to illustrate what God has provided in His “ only born Son .”
