Of course He is.
But there is a particular doctrine being espoused here that says He is not "The Way, The Truth, and The Life."
They espouse another "way".

Jesus is my LORD and Savior and I know that I have been born again, or anew, or from above, [however one wants to word it], by His Spirit coming to dwell in me. I repented of my sins and called on His name 37 years ago this month and the walk with Him just gets better and better as we go through life together.

I hope it is the same for you:)

________________

And just who is "espousing" this doctrine that says the Lord Jesus Christ, whom you refer to merely as "Jesus", is not "The Way, The Truth, and The Life"? And just who is it that says/"espouses" this "another 'way'"? Specifics, please, citing those you charge, and their statements/quotes:

"Produce your cause, saith the LORD;..." Isaiah 41:21

In and with Christ,

Of course Jesus is the way, the truth and the LIFE. NO ONE has said that He isnt. However, He has more to say about Himself that relates to we , who are His Body.

He is also, in this PRESENT dispensation, given the title of OUR HEAD. That title is UNIQUE to we who call ourselves BELIEVERS today. Those in Peters day could not call Him that as the BODY of Christ was yet a SECRET, and not in existance. In Peters day He presented Himself as THEIR MESSIAH and KING...prophesied and spoken of.

Christ as HEAD of His BODY , the church, was NOT spoken of , but HID IN GOD until revealed in due time to and thru the apostle Paul.

So...no one is refuting that Jesus in His earthly ministry referred to Himself as the way, the truth and the LIFE. The issue being made is that He DID NOT REFER TO HIMSELF IN TIMES PAST as the HEAD OF A BODY>>>>as that information and program was KEPT SECRET until God chose to reveal it in the MYSTERY Truths given to Paul.

If you want to know what we believe...all you have to do is to read some of the many bible studies posted here. Please dont misinterpret what has been said plainly. If you dont understand it...just ask and we will be happy to explain it to you.

thank you

".....I repented of my sins ....."


Repented of your sins, have you? So, repenting of your sins is a condition of being "born again", is it? Tell all of us on this board that you have repented of all your sins, and that this is a prerequisite to being justified. Go ahead. Committed any sins today? Repented of all of them today, have you? If so, are you "born again" again? Tell all of us a little bit about this "Lordship Salvation" you "espouse."


In Christ and with Christ,

In the priesthood order "of Melche", the head of a "house" is the "firstborn", "father", "king", "chief", "priest," "provider," "protector."

The house of Adam is "us" -all we who are born in Adam; but our head is dead in spirit, and is not alive to be our living continuing "firstborn", "father", "king", "chief", "priest," "provider," "protector."

Jesus Christ is the Head of the New Man house, the second Man created and the "Last Adam", and if we are not born again, by the adoption into His One Living Spirit, which is called the "regeneration" by Paul, which is the New Birth, then we are not in the New Man in Spirit, not made one in Him, and we will not then be regenerated [reborn] in the New Man body, in the image of the Last Adam and second Man.
The Church is the House of God, which is the Congregation of those reborn into Him.
Israel, the people, was called the "House of God" as Israel is His New Man name -Isaiah 49, which He gave to Jacob as a sign of the adoption to come -in Spirit and body, which Abraham had got the sign of the promise of in the name chnge.


Adoption into His Spirit by being joined to His Spirit is the New or "second birth" that all who will have Him as "Head" must come to.

In Adam all die, in Christ all are made alive -whosoever will.

Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.



2 Samuel 22
44 "You have also delivered me from the strivings of my people;
You have kept me as the head of the nations.
A people I have not known shall serve me.
45 The foreigners submit to me;
As soon as they hear, they obey me.
46 The foreigners fade away,
And *come frightened from their hideouts.

47 "The Lord lives!
Blessed be my Rock!
Let God be exalted,
The Rock of my salvation!
48 It is God who avenges me,
And subdues the peoples under me;
49 He delivers me from my enemies.
You also lift me up above those who rise against me;
You have delivered me from the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the Gentiles,
And sing praises to Your name.

51 He is the tower of salvation to His king,
And shows mercy to His anointed,
To David and his descendants forevermore."

Isa 55:3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.


Act 13:34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David

Saul heard the convicting Word of God preached by Jesus' witness, Stephen, and the conviction was so powerful he could not shake it; and then the Risen LORD of Glory came to him powerfully, and said... "it is hard for you to rebel against the convictions".

Paul was converted to Jesus Christ by the witness of Stephen, anointed by the Holy Spirit to Saul's heart; he could not shake it until He was met, and conquered by His love -and to Paul, that day, the revelation of the birth into Christ by His Spirit of regeneration was granted.

Paul met the Hidden Son of Man by the revelation promised in Enoch to the "elect", who choose to live the "elect life and to whom He would be revealed.

That "Head of Days" seen by Enoch, is that Son of Man come in New Man flesh who granted to Paul the Revelation of Himself.

That encounter was a regeneration of Spirit for the Pharisee, Saul.

the Ancient of Days whom Daniel saw is the same Head of days whom Enoch saw, who is now come in human flesh of the second creation but who existed from the beginning as that One to come, whom Enoch saw, "Hid -concealed- in God.

Isaiah 9:15 gives us this about the Ancient of Days as the Head of Days, in speaking about the "head" of Israel being cut off [the prophets]
"The ancient and honourable, he [is] the head;"

"The ancient and honourable, he [is] the head;"
I added a bit about the Head of days, as the New Man, into whom all must be reborn -"regenerated" by the Spirit of Adoption" above.

As to that which was Hid in God whom Paul saw, and Peter, John and all the Apostles saw and handled and all the world will see at His coming "revelation" as John was given from Him to show; He is none other than the Son of Man/Son of God, who was shown to Enoch as that Mystery Man, hidden and concealed in God, whom the Father said to Enoch that He and the Son would come dwell in us, which Jesus told the disciples the same in John 14;
"He, the Spirit of Truth is with you and shall be in you"

"I and the Father will come to you and make our home with you."

"He, the Spirit of Truth is with you and shall be in you"

"I and the Father will come to you and make our home with you."
This is the time of the Memorial Feast of YHWH, the Feast of Tabernacles, in the Jewish calender, which will not pass away until it is fulfilled totally, after the thousand year reign. The Feast of Tabernacles is the time the Jews make "sukkahs" temporary 'tabernacles' and 'symbolically' dwell in them.

All the Feasts God gave the namesake nation were living oracles, tutors, to be the schoolmaster to "bring us to Christ", as Paul worded it, and the Schoolmaster's tutoring in this Feast was that God is come to dwell in "man [in we who have received Him] , in the temporary 'tabernacle' we wear, in our adamic bodies, because we received the cleansing that put away sin once for all, and that sin is not remembered against us by the Father and that sacrifice will never be done again, for God split the veil of "the Secret";which was what the Holy of Holies was called, as it was also called His Oracle.

If we are regenerated in Spirit, the we "don" and "wear" "Christ", the Living Spirit, as the Garments of "Yeshua" =Salvation, which "Zion" puts on, until the day we are regenerated in body, and He is in us as "Emmanuel"; God with and now in us.

If one is willing to follow and look for themselves into the Scripture in this matter, they can discover from Scripture that Jesus was born at Tabernacles as a sign, being conceived the 24th day of the ninth month [which was the very day before the Festival of Lights, Hannukah, began, -but was not a feast of YHWH and was made after the prophecy, but which commemoratd the miracle of the lights, and which corresponds to Dec 25th sometimes, as the Feasts of Israel are based on the lunar calendar and move from year to year on our solar based calendar], as YHWH said, in Haggai chapter 2.
Haggai chapter 2 is a prophecy of the unclean garments [the Adam we wear the garments of [spirit body and soul], which is the first 'house' of the Father's glory which is defiled forever as a usable vessel to bear His glory.
And in Haggai 2, the clean, or holy garments, represent the second "House" which is the New Man, which, as the Foundation Stone of that "Latter Human House" Jesus Christ was "laid" on the 24th day of the ninth month in the womb of the virgin, as a sign.

The Latter House will have more glory than the first house, and those houses in Habbukuk 2 speak of "Adam" and "the New Man", Who is Jesus Christ, the Saviour, the Messiah, the Israel of God, as the Son of God/Son of Man come in "Second Man" flesh.

"YHWH does not dwell in houses made with hands", and He chose Abraham from the Gentiles -the Syrians, in particular- to make for Himself a "Name", and that Name is the House in which He will dwell in His glory when the House is finished and delivered up to Him, the Father, to fill with His presence of glory in all His fullness.

This is how I see Scripture on the matter, and I have shared what I see and anyone can check the Scripture for themselves to see if these things are true. One needs not that any man should teach them if they have the Holy Spirit as Teacher. He leads us and guides us into all Truth -and Jesus is the Truth into which we must come, and that is not by dead letters, but by the Living Spirit.
Anyone can "know" Jesus as LORD and be known of Him.
There is no hidden secret mystery about Salvation. It is in Jesus, our LORD and Saviour.
We do not have to understand all mysteries to know Jesus and be known of Him. We come as little children to Him, and He promises to never leave us or forsake us, and not to "leave us orphans" [which Adam, our first head, in Adam, had to do].
He is our Peace with the Father and He is Life, and He gives us His Rest and He casts out no one who comes to Him.

"He, the Spirit of Truth is with you and shall be in you"

"I and the Father will come to you and make our home with you."
Jhn 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

Isa 9:6,7 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Mat 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Of the increase of [his] government and peace [there shall be] no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
The Chapter of the Foundation Stone, as the New Man for the glory to indwell as the temple of YHWH as the "Latter House", is in Haggai 2 [I'm correcting my posts, I said Habbukuk]
Haggai 2
9 'The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,' says the Lord of hosts. 'And in this place I will give peace,' says the Lord of hosts."

The People Are Defiled
10 On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet, saying, 11 "Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'Now, ask the priests concerning the law, saying, 12 "If one carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with the edge he touches bread or stew, wine or oil, or any food, will it become holy?"'"
Then the priests answered and said, "No."
13 And Haggai said, "If one who is unclean because of a dead body touches any of these, will it be unclean?"
So the priests answered and said, "It shall be unclean."
14 Then Haggai answered and said, "'So is this people, and so is this nation before Me,' says the Lord, 'and so is every work of their hands; and what they offer there is unclean.
Promised Blessing
15 'And now, carefully consider from this day forward: from before stone was laid upon stone in the temple of the Lord-- 16 since those days, when one came to a heap of twenty ephahs, there were but ten; when one came to the wine vat to draw out fifty baths from the press, there were but twenty. 17 I struck you with blight and mildew and hail in all the labors of your hands; yet you did not turn to Me,' says the Lord.

The House which YHWH is building is in this prophecy which has not yet been fulfilled -and will be. The prophecy first spoke of the second temple laid in Jerusalem, which was nver this second House spoken of here as the House built upon the Chief Foundation Stone laid exactly as this prophecy tells].

18 'Consider now from this day forward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid--consider it:19 Is the seed still in the barn? As yet the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have not yielded fruit. But from this day I will bless you.'"

[from this day is, in the original a word that includes "backward and forward"]

Zerubbabel Chosen as a Signet
20 And again the word of the Lord came to Haggai on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying, 21 "Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying:

'I will shake heaven and earth.
22 I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms;
I will destroy the strength of the Gentile kingdoms.

__________--
Eph3Nine,

Maybe her post was from:

1."The Book of Tongues", which is right next to her "inspired" book of Enoch? "Ya know", "Shamba moo la Mumbo Gumbo!"(TBN?)

2. Of course, as you know, according to her, we, us "MAD"'s, just cannot understand "the 'inspired' scriptures", which, of course, includes the book of Enoch, without the book of Enoch.

3. a spiritual application:

"And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things." Mark 11:33

This great Saviour of ours never "sugar coated it", did He? If "the world" needs an example of what constitutes a "real man" -Christ Jesus(1 Tim. 2:5)

Since she did not answer the questions, neither do we tell her.

In Christ,
John M. Whalen

Jesus Christ said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life:"
This is truth because God says it is.

But why, IF you are "accepted in the Beloved" (Eph.1:6), "found in Him" (Phil.3:9), "members of His body" (Eph.5:30) want to remain stuck in a past dispensation, during the ministry, when our Lord Jesus Christ walked on this earth?
We are living NOW in this present dispensation---"the dispensation of the grace of God" (Eph.3:2) which is the dispensation of "the fellowship of the mystery" (Eph.3:9), "the church" (Eph.5:25).

Christ Jesus is "the way"
(1Cor.15:2-4)
By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures,
And that he was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
(Gal.2:20)
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me.
(Phil.3:10)
That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death;

Christ Jesus is "the truth"
(Rom.9:1)
I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
(2Tim.3:16)
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof,
for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:

Christ Jesus is "the life"
(Col.3:4)
When Christ, Who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory.
(Rom.6:4)
Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

In other words, as members of the body of Christ ("the church") we are NOT to live in the PAST dispensation, but live in the NOW dispensation.

We are saved by God's grace through faith in Christ's perfect and finished work!!!

Let us have a LIVING FAITH in the LIVING GOD, our Risen Lord Christ Jesus.

Jesus is the Way -back to the Father

Jesus is the Truth -He is the embodiment of every true word, or deed.

Jesus is the Life -"He is 'YHWH', 'Breath That [or Who] Breathes/ Life Who Lives'. Every living soul takes in the 'YH' as His gift of breath when they emerge from the womb, and every living soul exhales the 'WH' as they breathe out the last breath drawn in.
If you inhale .......and then exhale -as if you were going to blow out a candle -then you have said His name! your very breathing declares His Name, as YH-WH, the 'Life'..."
[taken from a Messianic Jew's paper -with liberties].


The Holy Bible is a book telling us where we came from and what we were made for. The Book tells us how we came to be made, what our destiny was, what happened to make us what we are today, and what our Creator planned for the cure before He made us, and what our end is to be.

The Book is more exciting than any adventure story, more spine tingling than any mystery story, more imaginative than any 'science' fiction story, and more romantical than any love story,.

It's filled with more adventure, more suspense, more drama, and more love than anything any mere man could imagine or write.
There are supernatural happenings caused by the good guys and the bad guys -and we get to read the end of the book and see who wins.
The bad guys get what's coming to them in the end; no more and no less, and exactly according to their own deeds done in their own bodies.

But the good guys get what's coming to Jesus Christ, hidden in Him, in God, and exactly what Jesus Christ has ransomed, from the curse, is restored to them as their inheritance, in Him.
And are saved from all the bad in the end. And the end is better than any fairy tale ever written, for the good guys really do live "happily ever after"
The good guys get regenerated bodies, made in the image of the New Man, and get the glory of the Father to indwell them forever.
The bad guys get their adamic bodies restored, but they can't enter into the kingdom of the Son of God, the NEw Man, in those bodies, cause they are defiled....so they get rejected and cast away into the lake of fire made for the really, really, bad guys.

But we aren't left with just dead letters on white pages to read about all this in: the Breath of Life, Who inspired the words, is present with us, to "quicken" -to make alive- what we need, as our portion of "Daily Bread", the Manna come down from the Father, when we feed in His "good green pastures", beside His still waters.

His Word is quickened by His Spirit as we seek Him and walk with Him and He gives us food that satisfies us intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally.
He is our Father, our Chief Shepherd, our High Priest and soon coming King.

1Ti 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
