What is the Apostles' Doctrine? (Acts 2:38-42)

Acts 2:42

This scripture is used by the Apostolic Church to identify their doctrine and their church. The apostles’ doctrine is used interchangeable with the doctrine of God (Titus 2:10) and the doctrine of Christ (2 John 1:9), which means the doctrine that was taught to the apostles by Christ who is God. Therefore, the doctrine of Christ is the doctrine of God. Matthew 7:28, Romans 16:17-18, Ephesians 4:11-14.

Many Christians don’t understand why Churches have the word “Apostolic” in the name of their Churches. To learn more about the Apostolic doctrine, I would suggest that you research Oneness Apostolic Churches. Apostolic means – those Christians who follow the doctrine of the apostles which is the doctrine of Christ/doctrine of God. It is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, repentance, remission of sins, receiving the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues and the baptism in Jesus name as directed by Peter and the apostles (Acts 2:38-42, Acts 19:1-5, Romans 6:3-4, Galatians 3:27, Colossians 2:12).

According to believers who follow the apostles doctrine, if anyone would call themselves Apostolic and don’t baptize in Jesus name, they are not true Apostolics, in the strictest sense of the word and have strayed from the faith (Acts 8:14-17). They don’t understand the mystery of Christ (Matthew 28:19 and Acts 2:38). There are three baptisms (Hebrews 6:2);

1st Key: Baptism of repentance (Natural-Mark 1:4 - Baptism by John, fulfilled in Acts 2:38)

2nd Key The baptism in Jesus name (Natural & Spiritual) (fulfilled in Acts 2:38)

3rd Key The baptism of the Holy Ghost (Spiritual) (Luke 3:16)(fulfilled in Acts 2:38).

The reference to the baptism of repentance, baptism in Jesus name, and baptism in the Holy Ghost is fulfilled in the water baptism in Jesus name (Acts 2:38, Ephesians 4:5, Colossians 2:10-12). Note: These baptisms is one operation of one baptism in Jesus name and they are also “the keys of the kingdom of heaven” that Jesus gave to Peter (Matthew 16:18-19).

The baptism in Jesus Name is the “rock” upon which the church is built and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Acts 2:38 is the real “born again” scripture, for it is the only scripture that has all of the elements of the gospel message (water and Spirit – John 3:5). (The commission: Matthew 28:19, Fulfilled: Acts 2:38 – The name in Matthew 28:19 is revealed as Jesus Christ in Acts 2:38. Jesus Christ is the everlasting Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Isaiah 9:6, Matthew 1:23, John 1:10, Colossians 1:19, 2:9, II Corinthians 5:19, Revelation 1:8)

Therefore, when there is any mention of baptism, that one baptism is in water and Spirit in Jesus name. Refer: Book of Acts 8:35-39, Mark 16:16. There is no other name whereby we must be saved except through the name of Jesus Christ by baptism (Acts 4:12, 19:1-5).. The scriptures are extremely plain and soft spoken to those that believe. For unbelievers, this is a hard saying and they will try to explain it away by their own traditions of unbelief. Not realizing that they are being used by the spirit of the antichrist - against Christ and the Word of God.

Don’t find it strange that some don’t believe in the baptism in Jesus name. Everybody didn’t believe Jesus when he walked on the earth, neither did everyone believe the apostles. The Priests, Scribes, Pharisees and the “so called educated people” thought the apostles were unlearned men so they wouldn’t listen to them. However, they did recognize that they had been with Jesus.

I don’t expect everyone to believe because only God can give his revelation, mystery, and knowledge of Jesus Christ. There will be people whom you respect for their intelligence and leadership abilities but they won’t believe the Word of God nor will they understand what you are showing them.

God has not given his mystery to the ones who think that they are so wise, educated, and intelligent. God has given his mystery to babes in Christ. God will give his revelation to anyone who has a heart for Christ and the ones who would diligently seek to know the mystery and knowledge of Him. You might feel very sad that these educated people won’t believe. But you must remember; God gave you the revelation and mystery of Christ and it’s time for you to live in the light that God has given you. You must go on and believe the Word of God and follow the directions of the apostles, especially the born again scripture in Acts 2:38, which is the Rock and foundation of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

If people won’t believe God and the instructions he gave to Peter, God has the wisdom to deal with their unbelief. I would suggest that you show them the Word, pray for them and move on lest you fall into the same traditions of unbelief and philosophies of men (Colossians 2:8-12). Don’t try to pull them along, they will not be able to see the mystery of Christ because of their unbelief. Satan doesn’t want you to understand the oneness of God which is in the body of Christ nor does he want you to understand the plan of salvation as it relates to John 3:5 and Acts 2:38.

Satan trembles at the very thought of the oneness of God and he will use the people you respect to dissuade you from the belief in the oneness of God and the knowledge and mystery of Christ (James 2:19-23). The people you respect have faith without works. The works is the baptism in Jesus name. You must show your faith with works by the baptism in Jesus name. If they won’t hear you, knock the dust off your feet and move on, they can’t see neither can they hear because their unbelief has seared their consciousness. They won’t realize that they are in error and they don’t understand because of their traditions and false doctrine (Colossians 2:8-10). Love them, pray for them, and move on.

Acts 2:36-38 is the great commission, how to be born again, and the keys of the kingdom of heaven

Acts 2:36-38

These scripture verses show us how Peter used the “Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven.” Peter preached the first sermon of the gospel of Jesus Christ on the day of Pentecost. After the Holy Ghost came upon the disciples, Peter being full of the Spirit, preached a sermon about the prophecies in the Old Testament which described who Jesus was. He explained that they had crucified the Lord Jesus (“The Christ - God himself”- John 1:10). The mens’ hearts were broken, they were hurt, so they wanted to know, what could they do to get this thing right.

What Peter did at this point, was to open the door to the church, using the “keys of the kingdom of heaven,” by saying,

1st Key “Repent,

2nd Key “be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for remission of sins,”

3rd Key “and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost/Spirit.”

These were the keys that Peter used to open the door (Jesus Christ) to the Church and this was also the fulfillment of the answer that Jesus gave to Nicodemus when he told him that he must be born of the water, in Jesus’ name and the Spirit which is in Jesus name (John 3:5) Jesus is the rock of our salvation.

The Jesus name baptism is the rock upon which salvation and the born again experience is based (II Samuel 22:1-4, 32, 47). The Jesus name baptism is the application of the blood to the souls of men. The Jesus name baptism is also the fulfillment of and the application of the death, burial, and resurrection of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ (Acts 20:28). For we are buried with him by baptism (Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:8-12).

Again, Acts 2:38 is “the born again scripture” which fulfilled John 3:5. Many preachers preach that you must be born again but they can’t tell you how. These preachers baptize new converts by erroneously using God’s titles - the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost as mentioned in Matthew 28:19. They don’t know God the Father, neither do they know the Son, nor the Holy Ghost - because of their unbelief in the name of Jesus Christ.

Today’s Christians have fallen into the “wilderness” of the Trinitarian doctrine because of their unbelief. Remember that the children of Israel were lost in the “wilderness” because of their unbelief. They didn’t realize that they were traveling in circles. Only God can break the cycle of unbelief and return his people to the true gospel of Jesus Christ. Men have developed their own doctrine, starting at the Nicaean Council of 325 A.D. However, I believe in my heart that God is bringing us out of the “wilderness” of the Trinitarian doctrine by the power of his Word.

To those that believe, Peter tells us what we must do to become a child of God. Because we believe that Jesus is the Christ, the anointed body of the One and only God of heaven and earth (John 1:10 - the Lamb that was slain - John 1:29), we will get baptized in his name. Remember: Jesus himself instructed Peter and the apostles. You can rest assuredly that Peter was correct in everything that he said we should do in the name of Jesus Christ, the only name given to men whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12. Colossians 3:17).

The baptism in Jesus name is the catalyst for understanding the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost/Spirit (Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38). This is my understanding of the revelation of this scripture in Mark 16:16. He that believeth and is baptized, “in the name of Jesus Christ,” shall be saved and he that believeth not shall be damned. Jesus said, why do you call me Lord and don’t do the things that I say? (Luke 6:46-48). Saints of God will tell you about repentance, being baptized in Jesus name and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost and you won’t hear nor believe them. You won’t do what the Lord told Peter to tell you to do. These are not Peter’s words only; these words are the Word of God (II Thessalonians 1:7-8).

Using these “keys of the kingdom of heaven” as instructed by Peter is building a foundation on a rock - Jesus Christ (Luke 6:46-49, Matthew 16:18-19). In addition, Jesus is the door. And Peter used these keys to open the door to Jesus, the kingdom of heaven, and to the knowledge and mystery of Christ. For believers, Acts 2:38 is the opening of the door to the Church, the washing of the blood of the Lamb, repentance - something you must do, the remission of sins, being buried with him in baptism, being raised with him, walking in the newness of life, and taking on the name of Jesus as the bride of Christ. Preachers should listen and be obedient to the instructions that were given to Peter by our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ (Romans 3:3-4). Let me ask you something? Do you remember the Passover? God said when the death angel sees the blood, he will pass over you.

When we get baptized in the blood of Jesus Christ, we have a type of Passover. The blood has been applied to our souls. How this baptism in Jesus name will be used in the judgment is unclear. However, I can assure you that it’s extremely important that we follow God’s Word and get washed in the blood of the Lamb using the name of Jesus Christ (the Lamb) in baptism. We should fully understand the apostolic doctrine so that we can follow God’s instructions (Acts 2:42).   In Summary, there is no question that Acts 2:38 is the great commission given to the apostles (Matthew 28:19), how to be born again given to Nicodemus (John 3:5), and the keys of the kingdom of heaven given to Peter (Matthew 16:18-19).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: God glorifies himself in Jesus Christ (II Corinthi...: "John 17:1-6, 11-14, 25, 26 God glorifies himself in the body of Christ. Verse 1. In these scripture verses, Jesus makes unmistakable refe..."

God glorifies himself in Jesus Christ (II Corinthians 5:19, Colossians 1:19, 2:9)

John 17:1-6, 11-14, 25, 26

God glorifies himself in the body of Christ. Verse 1. In these scripture verses, Jesus makes unmistakable references to show that God will glorify himself in his body. God lets us know that his name is the Lord Jesus (Revelation 1:8). There is only one Lord and he will glorify himself. Remember that God will not give his glory to another. (Isaiah 42:8).

Verse 2-3. Jesus has power over all flesh and eternal life. In other words, Jesus is saying that once he is glorified they will know that he is the only true God through his manifestation as Jesus Christ who was sent (I John 5:20).

Verse 4-6. Jesus says that he has glorified God on earth and that God, the Spirit, will glorify himself in the body of Jesus. This is so powerful that it’s hard to put it into words. Jesus is saying to the Spirit, I have made your name - Jesus Christ - visible (manifested). And I have glorified your name (God’s name - Jesus Christ) on earth by my presence and the works that I have completed. Now Father (the flesh speaks to the Spirit) glorify me (the Son - flesh) with the Spirit, which is the form that I was in before I came to earth.

Verse 11. Jesus tells the Father to keep the disciples in his own name (God’s own name is Jesus Christ) that they might be one mind. The mind of Christ is God’s mind. Then Jesus said, that he and the Father are one. The same Person – One God.

Verse 12. Jesus said that while he was in the world he kept the apostles and followers in thy name. The apostles were kept in the name of Jesus Christ which is God’s name.

Verse 25. Jesus says again, that the world don’t know the Father but Jesus knows the Spirit (himself). However, his disciples, knew that the Spirit (the Father) sent the flesh into the world and that he (the flesh) is “The Christ – God himself”

Verse 26. Jesus said that he has declared God’s name The name of God that was declared or made known, is Jesus Christ. God has loved the flesh (Son) that God has begotten and that same love will be in the followers of Jesus. In addition to the love of God, Jesus will come back in the form of the Holy Ghost/Spirit and will be in the saints. Jesus will be in the form of the Holy Ghost/Spirit, therefore the name of the Holy Ghost/Spirit is Jesus Christ. (Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38). Jesus says that “I am he.” Translated, I am God (Deuteronomy 32:39, John 8:24).  Thus, God will only glorify himself in the body of Jesus Christ (Isaiah 42:8).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Is the Father (Spirit) greater than Jesus (the Son...: "John 14:28 The Father is greater than Jesus (Sonship-flesh). This statement will have to be addressed because it could be a stumbling bloc..."

Is the Father (Spirit) greater than Jesus (the Son-Flesh)?

John 14:28

The Father is greater than Jesus (Sonship-flesh). This statement will have to be addressed because it could be a stumbling block for many people who will try to find reasons not to believe Jesus is God "The Father" and that the Word of God is somehow in error (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9, Colossians 2:9)..

To satisfy this scripture; I would like to reiterate the importance of knowing the Spirit and its operation and the flesh (Sonship) and its operation. The Father or the Spirit of Christ is so much greater than the flesh because of the limitations that God placed on all flesh; even the flesh of Jesus. At one point, Jesus in his Sonship could not inhabit the whole universe. The Father (Spirit) can inhabit the whole universe, therefore, The Father (the Spirit) is greater. The flesh cannot be in more than one place at the same time. God in the Spirit can be in every place at the same time. Therefore, the Father (Spirit) is greater. The flesh of God needed rest, food, and water. The Father (the Spirit) doesn’t need rest, food, nor water, therefore, the Father is greater. The Father (the Spirit) is all-powerful and the flesh of Jesus had limitations and the Flesh did not have all power at that time. Therefore, the Father (the Spirit) is greater. Jesus (The flesh-Sonship) received all power after the resurrection and after his glorification (Matthew 28:18, John 12:28, 13:31-32).

Jesus made simple statements. However, you won’t understand what he is saying if you don’t believe that he is God and if you don’t understand his dual nature. Unless you understand the dual nature of Jesus, you will never understand what Jesus means, when he speaks. Without controversy, this is the mystery of godliness (I Timothy 3:16). God himself was manifested as the Son and yet, we still won’t believe he is both the Father and the Son (John 1:10). What will the Lord do with this generation, if they won’t believe his Word? When you hear the truth sometimes you feel like you don’t want to hear it.

John 16: 1-4, 7, 14-16

The following statements might make you feel like you don’t want to hear it.. However, continue reading and you will begin to see the light based on the scriptures. When God’s chosen people tell others that God is not a Trinity, they will become extremely upset because their logic has been tainted by traditions and untruths (Colossians 2:8-9). They will be challenged in a way they have never known before. If we would search the scriptures, we would find that there are no recordings about the Trinity in the scriptures. The concept of the Trinity is not a foundation based on Christ. The “Trinity” has a foundation based on a concept of three co-equal and separate personalities in one being, which doesn’t have anything to do with who God is. The Trinity is an "assumption" of who God is.

The Trinitarian doctrine was suggested at the Council of Nicaea in 325A.D. This is a doctrine of men and that’s why it can’t be understood, explained, nor proven by the scriptures. The Trinity is a figment of man’s imagination, which is based on traditions, deceit, and philosophy (Colossians 2:8-10). There are people who will call themselves Christians and they will put a “Oneness Christian” out of their Churches and they will think that they will be doing God a favor.

They will do these things because they don’t know who God is; they don’t understand that God is one (Mark 12:32). They will say that God is one but they don’t understand that the one God’s name is Jesus Christ (The Father – Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1, 3, 10, 14, I Timothy 3:16). God used three manifestations of himself for the salvation of man. (Titus 1:16). Again, they won’t believe, nor accept the fact, that the name of the Father, and name of the Son, and the name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus Christ (proven in Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:28). Three manifestations of One God and one Name.

Note: Today, I believe, “unbelieving followers of Christ” will act the same as the people who wanted to kill Jesus for blasphemy. They won’t believe the Word of God because they don’t understand it. True believers of Christ, believe that Jesus is the Son and he is equal with God and is, in fact, God himself and he can forgive sins (Mark 2:7, Luke 5:21, John 5:18). The Word of God is true but to an unbeliever, it can’t be understood, neither will they know the way of salvation because of their unbelief. They don’t know who God the Father is; neither do they know Jesus Christ, the Son (John 8:19).

I have heard it said, that if anyone tells you that there is no such thing as a Trinity; don’t listen to them. Remember this; the person who tells you not to listen to the truth of the oneness of God and the Deity of Christ is being used by the spirit of the antichrist which is against the name of Christ (I John 3:21-26).

Search the scriptures for yourself and you will find that there are not three persons in One. Three gods or persons in one is a paganistic concept that men have tried to transform into a Christian doctrine. There is only One God and God will not have anything to do with a Trinity. The word “Trinity” is not scriptural. God doesn’t know of any other gods/persons (Isaiah 43:10-13,15, 44:6, 8). Review Titus 1:16.

To prove that Jesus is the Father, let’s look at John 16:7. Jesus tells the disciples that He will send the Comforter and it’s important that he go away so that the Comforter would come. Why? Because Jesus is the Comforter (in Spirit when He returns). Remember that only God, The Father, can send the Comforter/Holy Spirit.

Now let’s go back and look at John 14 and verse 26. Jesus says the Father will send the Comforter. This again lets us know that Jesus is the Father and he will send the Comforter in his own name (Jesus Christ(Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9). As a result of what Jesus told the apostles, we have found out that the name of the Comforter/Holy Ghost/Spirit is Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38). John 16: 13-16. Jesus said, he is the truth in verse 14:6, which means, he is the Spirit of Truth and the Spirit of Truth is the Comforter/Holy Ghost/Spirit.

Therefore, Jesus is the Holy Ghost/Spirit, the Spirit of Truth. The Spirit of Truth will glorify the name of Jesus (Isaiah 42:8). Jesus is telling them that all the things that the Father has are mine. Why? Because Jesus is the Father who is in heaven (Isaiah 9:6). The Spirit of Truth (The Holy Ghost) will take the things of Jesus and show the mystery of who he is (Ephesians 3:3-5, Colossians 1:14-19). Verse 16. Jesus tells his followers that in a little while he will revert back into his Spirit form by saying, he will be going back to his Father (Matthew 28:18). There is no question that Jesus Christ is Lord God, Father of heaven and earth and Saviour of the world (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Isaiah 9:6, 43:10-12).

Therefore, Jesus is the Holy Ghost/Spirit, the Spirit of Truth. The Spirit of Truth will glorify the name of Jesus (Isaiah 42:8). Jesus is telling them that all the things that the Father has are mine. Why? Because Jesus is the Father who is in heaven (Isaiah 9:6).

Jesus tells his followers that in a little while he will revert back into his Spirit form by saying, he will be going back to his Father (Matthew 28:18). There is no question that Jesus Christ is Lord God, Father of heaven and earth and Saviour of the world (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Isaiah 9:6, 43:10-12).

Jesus Christ is "The Holy Ghost, which is The Spirit of Truth"

John 14: 6-13, 16-20, 26

Let’s first establish that Jesus is truth and that he is the Spirit of truth which is the Holy Ghost. Note: The Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit are used interchangeably in the scriptures (John 14:6, 16, 17)

Look at verse 13 – redundant. Jesus speaks again about the Father being glorified in the Son.  This lets us know again that Jesus is God because God will only glorify himself (Isaiah 42:8)..

In verse 16, Jesus shows us how the flesh, any flesh must pray to the Spirit, the Father – his Spirit, who will send another Comforter, The Holy Ghost/Spirit, that he may abide with you forever. Jesus lets us know that the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost/Spirit, is also the Spirit of truth. Let’s go back; look at this; Jesus is truth, The Spirit of truth. The Comforter, and The Holy Ghost.  Let's reverse the statement.  Jesus is the Holy Ghost, the Comforter, and the Spirit of truth. Jesus explains that the world can’t receive the Holy Ghost/Spirit because they can’t see him. Neither do they know who the Holy Ghost is. Jesus makes a profound statement at this point. Jesus says that they, the apostles, know that the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus says that he is the Holy Ghost by saying, he is staying with them right now as he speaks; and later he will be in them as the Holy Ghost/Spirit.

Verse 18. Jesus is saying that he will come; meaning, Jesus will come back as the Holy Ghost/Spirit. Therefore, the name of the Holy Ghost/Spirit/Truth is Jesus Christ. Look at Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38.

Verse 20. Jesus says in that day they will know that he is the Father and they are in him and he is in the disciples in the form of the Holy Ghost/Spirit.

Verse 21. Jesus will show the disciples who he is by showing his manifestation as God. Thus the disciples would understand that the Spirit and the flesh of God will love them if they keep his commandments.

Verse 26. Jesus identifies the Comforter as the Holy Ghost, whom the Father, Jesus’ Spirit, will send in his name, the name of Jesus Christ. If the Holy Ghost will be sent in Jesus name, then the name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost/Spirit will bring the things that you have learned about Jesus back to your remembrance. If you have the Holy Ghost, then you will see based on your training and the scriptures that the name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus Christ. (John 14:26, Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38).

I would like to go back to Verse 12 and ask a question which would be a mystery to most who don’t quite understand the manifestation and revelation of Christ. If Jesus said he is the Father, in the aforementioned verses. Why would he say, I go unto my Father?

Let me show you how God has been working with me in the revelation of who he is. I was finishing up my writings in the book of I Peter. I had already passed John. This is what happened. I was in a Bible class. I was flipping through the scriptures looking for a passage that we were studying at the time and this verse, John 14:12, seems to have jumped out at me, it caught my attention, and it stirred my spirit. In my spirit, I knew, I would have to address this scripture.

On the following Saturday, I woke up and was lying in bed mediating. I started thinking about this book, Understanding the Trinity, and how I could make the revelation of Christ clearer to a person who really wanted to believe but couldn’t quite get it.

While I’m lying there, God brought back to my remembrance a pitcher full of water and a glass. I said in my heart, Lord, you know me and you know that I wouldn’t want to offend you by comparing your glory to earthly vessels. I felt that the Lord pressed upon my heart that this would not offend him in any way. This analogy is for those who are truly trying to understand the mystery of God and the operation of his manifestations.

Let’s consider God as this big pitcher of water which fills the Universe. This big pitcher of Water, the Spirit, was poured into a glass. Jesus Christ is the glass. According to the scriptures, God cannot be seen face to face by any man while he is in his full Spiritual form. Moses saw God’s backside. In order for us to see God, God had to make himself visible and clothe his Spirit in human flesh. God poured his Spirit into the body of Jesus Christ, the glass (Colossians 1:19, 2:9, II Corinthians 5:19, I Timothy 3:16)..

This same water, the Spirit, that is in heaven is the same water that was poured in the glass so we could see the water, God’s Spirit in the body of Jesus. In this case, Jesus who is the express image of the water (Spirit). We can see the glass but we can’t see the water (Spirit) that is in the glass. Therefore, when we see Jesus, we see the express image of the water, the image of God himself who is the water that was poured out of the pitcher. One God who transformed himself and took on the form of the glass. Jesus is God incarnate (John 1:1-14).

This transformation of God (the glass- Jesus) was changed and glorified. God put all of his power and the complete Godhead in this glass, the body of Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9-12).

Therefore, when we see God, upon his return, he will be in the form of Jesus Christ who is the visible image of God. In that day there will be one Lord and his name will be one. In Philippians 2:10, we find that at the name of Jesus every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11).

Jesus Christ who is the visible image of God, is in the highest and most powerful position in the Spiritual realm of God. Thus when we see scriptures that say, Jesus is on the right hand of the Father, we fully understand the phrase, “the right hand of the Father.” Because we know that Jesus is in the most powerful position in the Godhead and he is the visible essence of God. God has incorporated all of his power, glory and majesty into the body of Jesus Christ who is the “right hand of the power of God” (Isaiah 42:8, Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9-10).

Based on the aforementioned analogy, we can see what Jesus meant when he said, “I go to my Father. What Jesus is saying is that I am going back into my Spiritual realm. Now, if we put blood in the glass of water, we will see the glorified flesh as red in the glass (body). Jesus will be the glass with the red water in it. When we put the whole glass with the red blood, back inside the big pitcher, we can see the glass inside the pitcher. The water inside the glass will be red and we will be able see it in a position of power within the pitcher (the right hand of the Power of God). Jesus’ glorified body, the red glass of water inside the pitcher, will be seen on the Throne as the lamb of God. Jesus Christ, as the Lamb, is the visible essence of God.

Think of about this: Once this glass, with the red blood, is placed back into the Spirit (Pitcher), it can been seen by man and that red blood starts to ooze out of the glass and color all of the water in the pitcher. In other words, God came from heaven, made himself visible to mankind, died, and went back as a glorified body, with his (God’s) blood that was shed for the salvation of man (Acts 20:28). That slain Lamb took the blood back to the mercy seat.

This glass of water (Jesus' Spirit of Truth) is the same water (Spirit of the Father) that came from the big pitcher and it is the same water (Spirit) that was put back into the pitcher after it was glorified. The only difference is that now we can see the water (the express image of the Spirit) because it is in a glass (body - Jesus Christ - Jehovah Saviour).

Therefore, we can see the Lamb which was slain before the foundation of the world sitting on the One Throne in heaven (Revelation 4:2,9, 5:6,8, 6:1, 7:10,17, 10:6,7, 11:15, 15:3,4, 17:14, 19:7,13,16). There is only one God and there is only one way to salvation and that's through God's highest and most glorified name - Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12).

In summary, when you see Jesus, upon his return, you will see Jesus as God himself riding on a “White Horse.” (Revelation 19:11-16). The Lord of Lords and King of Kings - The Almighty (Isaiah 9:6, Revelation 1:8,11,18, 17:14, 22:13). The foregoing analogy is an attempt to relay a Spiritual concept into a natural form so that one can understand the operation of God and his amazing miracles.

Proof that Jesus told the apostles he is the Father

John 14: 6-13

Jesus explains to his apostles that he is the Father. This is a very powerful scripture that will inform the world and the universe that Jesus is God the Father. If one won’t believe Jesus, then who will they believe? Jesus speaks plainly to his disciples about who he is; so there would be no doubt that they were speaking to God himself through his manifestation as the Son (John 1:10, Colossians 1:19).

Let’s take a look at how the disciples were perplexed and didn’t understand what Jesus was saying. Jesus said, I am the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus is speaking about the Father as if the Father was someone other than himself. One can’t come to the Father except by Jesus because, Jesus is the Father and if you don’t know Jesus, then you don’t know the Father. In other words, you will have to know Jesus Christ.

Then, Jesus said, If you had known me, you should have known my father also and from this point on, you know him, the Father – Jesus, and have seen him. Jesus said the same thing twice. Philip asked Jesus to show us the Father and we will be satisfied. Jesus had just plainly explained to Philip that he is the Father – Isaiah 9:6. However, Jesus told him again. Jesus said, Philip how is it that you have been with me all this time and you haven’t known me? Then Jesus tells him again. He that has seen me has seen the Father, so why are you asking me to show us the Father? (I Corinthians 10:4) 

Verse 11. Jesus verifies what he has said on many occasions that he is in the Father and the Father is in the Son. Thus, I and my Father are one - the same person – one God (John 10:30).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: God will not give his glory to another (Isaiah 42:...

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: God will not give his glory to another (Isaiah 42:...: "John 13:31-32 God said in Isaiah 42:8, I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to grave..."

God will not give his glory to another (Isaiah 42:8, John 13:31-32)

John 13:31-32

God said in Isaiah 42:8, I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.  Guess what, the name of Jesus is the Lord – that is God’s name. There is only one Lord (Jeremiah 16:21, Ephesians 4:5). And God said, I will not give my glory to another. Well, in John we are seeing that Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. What Jesus is saying based on the scripture in Isaiah 42.8, God will glorify himself.

If God won’t give his glory to another and since God can’t lie, then God is glorifying himself in the body of Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9,10). Therefore, Jesus is the one Lord God who was glorified (John 7:39). There is no way God will glorify anyone other than himself. Jesus is the one Lord and God the Father as the scriptures have said (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1, 3, 10, 14, John 14:9, I Timothy 3:16).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Is Jesus God, "The Christ" (I Corinthians 10:4)

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Is Jesus God, "The Christ" (I Corinthians 10:4): "John 10:24-33-38 The Jews had been in doubt for a long time about whether Jesus was God, The Christ. However, the manner in which Jesus wa..."

Is Jesus God, "The Christ" (I Corinthians 10:4)

John 10:24-33-38

The Jews had been in doubt for a long time about whether Jesus was God, The Christ. However, the manner in which Jesus was speaking to them, they weren’t sure whether he really was “The Christ” or not. They wanted him to come right out and say that he was God, The Christ. Look at the way Jesus tells them he is God, The Christ. Jesus said, I told you and you don’t believe me. The works that I do, I do them in my Father’s name. Jesus does things in the name of Jesus – therefore, the Father’s name is Jesus – Isaiah 9:6. (John 17:6,11,12). Jesus comes in his Father’s name and yet they don’t believe him. If someone comes in their own name, then they would believe him. Look at what Jesus says in verse 28. Neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Then he says in verse 29. No man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. Jesus’ hand is the Father’s hand. Jesus is saying in these verses, I am the Father and Son and no one will take them out of my hand. Oh by the way, my Father and I are the same person. We are one. Here we see Jesus speaking as One God while revealing two manifestations (Colossians 1:19, 2:9)

When Jesus said, he and the Father are one, meaning the same, the Jews wanted to kill him for blasphemy because they understood perfectly that Jesus was saying he was God. Again, Jesus made a true statement, he is God. And they still wanted to kill him, not for telling a lie as they thought, but for speaking the truth. By the way, among other things, Jesus was crucified for blasphemy – saying that he is God which makes him equal with God (John 10: 33 and the Son of God - John 10:36). Guess what? He is the one and only God. Jesus died not because he was a bad person. He died for speaking the truth.

In verse 38, Jesus makes a statement that satisfied a number of scriptures. Jesus said, believe that the Father is in me and I in him. One example is John 14:11. In other words, Jesus is saying there is only one God. The Father is in him on earth and he is in the Father in heaven. Jesus’ Spirit stays in heaven as the Father. He is both in heaven and on earth at the same time. Why would we think it so strange that God can be in heaven and on earth at the same time? Jesus is also telling us that the Spirit of God, The Father, is in his body (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:14, 14:10-11, Philippians 2:6, 10-11, Colossians 2:8-10, I Timothy 3:16).

Jesus is the manifestation of the Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost as we will see in other scriptures as we go along. If by chance you think that this book is redundant, you’re right. Look at how many times God says the same thing in the Old and New Testaments. Keep this in mind as you discover more things about Jesus while reading this book.

There is another thing you can do; you can keep a record of how many times the same thing will be spoken by God. This is one reason, I feel, that even a wayfaring man couldn’t make a mistake. (Isaiah 35:8). Why? Because God has said the same thing so many times. It will amaze you just to realize how many times God has told us who he is. If you want to talk about redundant – God is the master of redundancy. Search the Internet or go to the library to find out how many times God has said the same thing or used the same phrases in his Word. You will be amazed.

In this book, you will realize how redundant the Word of God is – the same things are referred to over and over and they will all point to who he is and salvation; being born again in his name through repentance and baptism. When you finish this book your mind will be saturated with Jesus and you will remember many scriptures because of the redundancy of the Word of God.

If you have studied the Word for years and you really want to know the Lord, he will bring the Word back to your remembrance and reveal himself to you. If this is hid from you, there is a reason. That reason is unbelief in God’s Word and the way it is written. What if some don’t believe? Let God be true and every man a liar. God will glorify his name in the Son (Romans 3:3-4).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Proof that Jesus Christ is the "I am he"

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Proof that Jesus Christ is the "I am he": "John 8:28 When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that “I am he.” Jesus calls himself Jehovah God, but this is how it is said...."

Proof that Jesus Christ is the "I am he"

John 8:28

When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that “I am he.” Jesus calls himself Jehovah God, but this is how it is said. In the Old Testament, God has used the phrase, “I am he” to describe himself (Isaiah 41:4, 43:10,13, 25, 45:21-23, 48:12).

Therefore, when Jesus says, “I am he,” he is telling them, I am the same God who talked to your fathers and the prophets while I was in my Spirit Form, “I am he” - Jehovah. There is no other God, “I am he.” Remember: When Jesus is talking about his Father, he is talking about his own Spirit which is and always remain in Heaven and on earth at the same time. Jesus’ flesh, the Sonship, is subject His inner Spirit. Same God, different operation (I Corinthians 12:4-6). He that is of God hears his Words.

John 8:47, 58, 59

He that is of God hears his Words. In these verses, Jesus is answering a number of questions from the scribes and Pharisees concerning who he is and his relationship to Abraham. Jesus is letting them know that if they were really concerned about the things of God, then they would understand what he was saying. They didn’t understand what Jesus was saying so he told them they were not of God. They didn’t understand the mystery of the Deity of Jesus and how he could have lived before Abraham.

When Jesus told them that they call God their Father but they don’t know him. They didn’t realize that they were talking to the Father (Isaiah 9:6). When Jesus said, that Abraham rejoiced to see his day, they didn’t understand because Jesus wasn’t even fifty years old, so how could he say that he saw Abraham rejoice. Here is the key, Jesus informs them indirectly that he is God with these words; Before Abraham was, “I am.” (Exodus 3:14, 6:3, 29:46). They understood that only God could be before Abraham.

They were so upset that Jesus would say he came before Abraham that they wanted to kill him. For they understood Jesus to be saying that He is “I am” Abraham’s Father. Even though, Jesus words were true, the Pharisees refused to hear it nor did they believe him. As a matter of fact, they were insulted that Jesus would even suggest that he was God or that he was eternal.

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: The Controversy about "Who is Jesus" rages on

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: The Controversy about "Who is Jesus" rages on: "John 8:12-19, 24 The Controversy of “who is Jesus” rages on, even to this day people won’t believe that Jesus is the Father (Isaiah 9:6, J..."

The Controversy about "Who is Jesus" rages on

John 8:12-19, 24

The Controversy of “who is Jesus” rages on, even to this day people won’t believe that Jesus is the Father (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9). Let’s take a look at how Jesus handles this matter. Jesus had just forgiven the woman who was about to be stoned for adultery.

Right after that, Jesus told the scribes and Pharisees that he is the light of the world. And if you follow him, you won’t walk in darkness and you’ll have the light of life.  In other words, if you believe that Jesus is God, and that he is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, you will see the light (Colossians 2:8-9). And if you believe that he made the heavens and earth, and all things exist because of him, and that he is Lord, and that he is the Saviour, and that he is all things, and you follow him, you won’t be in darkness (Isaiah 43:10-11, Luke 2:11, John 1:10). The Scribes and Pharisees had a problem with Jesus saying he was the light because according to their laws, teaching and traditions, if a man bears a record of himself, then that record is not true.

Therefore, Jesus had to explain to them that according to the law that if two men said it true, then it is true. Jesus said that he is one man to bear record of himself and the Father bears witness of him, therefore that record is true. Now they were really confused because they didn’t see the Father, so they asked him where is the Father? In other words where is this other man? Now listen to this.

For those who have a question of whether God is male or female; this is your answer. God is a Spiritual man, and Jesus is a natural man. The Son and the Spirit bears record of the Deity of Jesus. Jesus said, you don’t even know me. For if you had known me, you should have known my Father also (John 10:30).

In these scriptures, Jesus clearly reveals the revelation that he is God the Father because the Father is in him (Colossians 1:19). And they should have known that according to the prophets (Genesis 17:1, Revelation 1:8, Isaiah 9:6).

Even though Jesus talks of the Father as if he was someone else, he reveals that he is God the Father. When Jesus speaks, you will have to distinguish between whether he is speaking from his Spirit, as the Father, or from his flesh as the Son (John 14:6-11). When Jesus talks of the Father, he is referring to his manifestation in Spirit form which is in his body (Colossians 2:9). When he speaks of himself, his flesh, he says, the Son of God or the Son of Man.

However, there are times when Jesus is talking about himself as the express image of the Spirit (Hebrews 1:3, John 14:10-11). Since Jesus has a dual nature, it’s difficult for one who doesn’t have the revelation to understand whether he is speaking as God in the Spirit or God as a man, same God two manifestations. Jesus would reveal himself later as the Holy Ghost.  Thus, three manifestations in one God - Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:19, 2:9, Revelation 1:8).  

Again, let’s look at John 8:19. The people asked Jesus to show them the Father. Jesus replied, you don’t know either one of us. If you had known me, you would have known the Father also. How? Because Jesus is the Father. They should have believed the Word of God through the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 9:6).

Therefore if you know Jesus, you know he is the Father (John 14:9). Jesus is saying, in verse 24; if you don’t believe that “I am he,” you will die in your sins. Why? Because you won’t get baptized in his name for the remission of sins and you won’t believe the Word of God delivered by the apostles - Repentance, baptism in Jesus name (the rock of which the church is built) and receiving the gift Holy Ghost in Jesus name (Acts 2:38, 10:48, 22:16, 19:1-5).  This method of salvation is throughout the book of Acts.  You won’t believe Jesus is God, the “I am he,” the "I am", the Almighty God of the Old Testament, and you won’t believe that everything was made by Jesus (John 1:10, Colossians 1:14-19) and you won’t believe that he is the one God manifested as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Colossians 2:8-10, II Timothy 3:16).

Thus, you will never find the door, the truth nor eternal life for the mystery is hidden from the wise and prudent and given unto babes. You can’t know Jesus if you don’t believe his Word. Some might say that they believe the Word of God and immediately come up with “a philosophy of men” to prove that Jesus is not God the Father, thereby proving that he doesn’t believe the Word of God. Trying to disprove God’s Word is dangerous and will send a disbeliever into a state of reprobation.

Is Jesus "The Christ" Son of the Living God? (I Corinthians 10:4)

John 6:69

This scripture verifies that Jesus is The Christ, the Son of the Living God. This scripture also shows us that Jesus is not only God himself, he is also the Son. “The Christ” is God himself in the flesh. (John 1:1-14). The Spirit of God is in the body of a man – Jesus Christ. The flesh is called the Sonship of God and the Spirit of God in Jesus’ body is called the everlasting Father (John 14:6-11).  Jesus is the one God who is in heaven and on earth at the same time (John 3:13, Colossians 2:9). This is the mystery that people couldn't understand. How can God be God and man at the same time? Thus, the big debate is "The Deity of Jesus Christ".

John 7:26-29, 37-43

The big debate is the Deity of Jesus. The debate about whether Jesus is "the Christ", God in the flesh, has been debated since Jesus was on earth because they didn’t believe him. Jesus said, in John 7:38, He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. Jesus was letting them know that the scriptures spoke of him. In other words, the scriptures that Jesus was talking about were in the Old Testament. The scriptures were written to show that Moses was conversing with Jesus in his Spiritual form. Isaiah told us that God himself would come down in the flesh to reconcile his people unto himself (Isaiah 9:6, 40:1-5, II Corinthians 5:19).

Jesus was stressing to them that once they receive the Holy Ghost, they would get the revelation of who he is, and out of their belly shall flow rivers of living water because, at that point, they would have realized that they had killed the very Christ they were looking for.

Thus, the debate of whether Jesus is the only God, "The Christ", rages on by Theologians, Religious Leaders and Philosophers because of their ignorance and unbelief. They still won’t believe that Jesus is the Only Lord God and Saviour (Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 9:6, 43:10-11, 44:6, 8, Luke 2:11).

Therefore, think it not strange that this book will be debated by many who would feel Jesus is not the only God. They will try to persuade you to believe that there are three persons in one God.

The whole purpose of this book is to declare to you that this same “Christ” is both Lord and Saviour - God himself (Deuteronomy 6:4, John 20:28). For there is; one God, one Saviour, and one Lord Jesus and he is "the Christ", God Himself (Isaiah 43:10-13, I Corinthians 10:4). As aforementioned, I am not a prophet, however, I do believe these same religious leaders will allow themselves to be used by the spirit of the antichrist by not teaching their followers with a clear understanding of the knowledge of Christ for which Paul died. While these religious leaders are talking against the Deity of Christ, their followers will read this book, believe, and be saved through the power of God.

These religious leaders will fall under the weight of their own craftiness, ignorance and unbelief. And if they aren’t careful they will find themselves in the very hell that they preached about regardless of how many years, “they say they,” have walked with God. Jesus will tell them to depart from me you workers of iniquity, I never knew you. When the truth came, they ignored "the obvious" and will die in their sins (John 1:24). They won’t believe God, his Son, nor his Word. Neither will they get baptized in Jesus name (Mark 16:16, John 8:19, 24, Acts 19:1-5, I Peter 3:21). Therefore, the controversy of “who is Jesus” rages on.

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: No man has ever seen God (Christ) in His Spiritual...: "John 6:46, 14:5-10 No man has seen the Father. We have been discussing how Jesus is the Father and we know that Jesus told the disciples w..."

No man has ever seen God (Christ) in His Spiritual form (I Corinthians 10:4)

John 6:46, 14:5-10

No man has seen the Father. We have been discussing how Jesus is the Father and we know that Jesus told the disciples when you have seen me, you have seen the Father. (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9).

How do we reconcile these scriptures? This seems like a contradiction, but it’s not. The Glory of God is so bright and powerful that no flesh could remain in God’s presence. Therefore, we do know that no man has seen the Spirit of God, in his fullness, at any time and live. Moses saw the backside of God and he has talked to God face to face, but he has never seen God in the fullness of his glory. God is so vast that man has to see God in some type of “manifestation” or condensed form.

Let’s look at what Jesus is saying in John. Jesus is telling the disciples that they are looking at the express image of God. The manifested flesh of God - “The Father”. (John 1:1, 14, Hebrews 1:3, Colossians 2:8-9, I Timothy 3:16, I John 1-2).

In other words, the disciples have seen the express image of God the Father in the flesh but they have not seen God the Father in the fullness of his Spiritual form, which is in the body of Jesus  (John 14:10-11, Colossians 2:9).

The disciples understood, over time, that Jesus was the one God in Christ, the Son of the Living God. The same God in the Old Testament was now on earth in the form of a man (as the Father - John 10:30,  14:9) reconciling the world unto himself (II Corinthians 5:19, John 8:24, 58).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Jesus speaks of God as His Father

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: Jesus speaks of God as His Father: "John 6:26-29 Jesus speaks of God as His Father. Isn’t it strange that Jesus speaks of the Father as if he is someone other than himself. L..."

Jesus speaks of God as His Father

John 6:26-29

Jesus speaks of God as His Father. Isn’t it strange that Jesus speaks of the Father as if he is someone other than himself. Let me explain to you what Jesus is saying. Jesus is telling the people that they are following him because they like to eat and not because of the miracles that they have seen. However, they should seek everlasting life, which Jesus will give them because God the Father has sealed him. The flesh of Jesus has been sealed with the Holy Spirit.

When Jesus is speaking of God the Father, he is referring to his manifestation in Spirit form. The Spirit is greater than the flesh. There are limitations to the flesh of the Son of Man that cannot compare to the power and vastness of the Spirit; glorification comes later  (Isaiah 42:8). For the Spirit, who is referred to as God the Father, can do all things and be in every place in the Universe at the same time and the flesh cannot. This same Spirit is also referred to as the Spirit of Christ in the New Testament. In other words, the two different manifestations is One Spirit. The Spirit of Christ/Spirit of God is the same Spirit.

The people wanted to know what they should do so that they could do the works of God. Jesus explained to them that they should believe on him whom the Father had sent. In other words, he didn’t say believe in the Father. Why? Because he is also the Father, in his Spiritual Form. Jesus is telling them that out of my Spirit form, I sent this flesh. Don’t forget that Jesus has a dual nature, he is both God the Father and Man -The Son.

Thus, when you believe on Jesus, you have found God the Father (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9-11). Remember: Jesus said, no man comes to the Father but by me. Why? Because Jesus is the Father.

Jesus talked to Moses, Abraham , Isaac, Jacob, and the prophets face to face

When Jesus says, I only do what I see the Father do, Jesus is saying in my Spirit form, I have seen many things that I have done before I came to earth. Then Jesus shows us that the Spirit will commit all things to his manifestation as the Son. The Son will be the Judge and if you don’t honor the Son, Natural, then you can’t honor the Father, Spirit, that sent the Son. The Spirit sent the natural body of Jesus to die for the salvation of mankind (Acts 20:28). Jesus is also explaining how these two manifestations of himself are working in concert to show us the greatness of his power and the mystery of his nature. We should never be under the impression that this operation of God is two persons.

These are manifestations that you see in scripture is the same God in a different form. God can be in heaven as a Spirit and be on earth as a man at the same time. Jesus has a dual nature. Spirit and Man. Therefore, we should honor Jesus as God, Natural, thereby honoring the Father as God, Spiritual. (John 1:1, 14). In other words, we have the same God with a dual nature. Look at the power of the dual nature of God in verse 21. Jesus shows us that God, Spirit, can raise the dead and he as a natural man can raise the dead. Jesus explains that God, the Spirit, will show his flesh greater works than this and you will be amazed. Understanding that Jesus is the only God is the premise for this book. The scriptures testify that Jesus is God.

John 5:39-47

Jesus said, the scriptures will testify of him. If you don’t know, understand, or believe Jesus when He speaks, you will never find the door nor eternal life. No man cometh unto the Father except through Jesus Christ, therefore you must know him. If you search the scriptures, you will find that Moses talked about how the Spirit of God created the heavens and the earth (Colossians 1:14-19). The name of Jesus Christ was in the mind of God and was God. However, Jesus’ name, the Son, was not manifested at the time of creation (John 1:1-10, I Corinthians 8:6, Ephesians 3:9-11, Hebrews 1:1-8).

Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the prophets, talked to Jesus and Jesus, in his Spiritual form, wrote the Ten Commandments with his own hand.  In addition,  Moses talked to Jesus in the wilderness when Jesus Christ led the children of Israel out of Egypt (I Corinthians 10:4).

If people would  have believed Moses, they would believe Jesus because Moses wrote about Him.  (John 5:46-47). Moses wrote about Jesus Christ “The Almighty God” in Genesis and it is verified in Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1, 3, 10, 14, and Revelation 1:8, 22:13. God’s eternal name has always been Jesus Christ, even though, that name was not known by Moses at the time.

People still don’t believe that Jesus is the only God even though Moses wrote about him. Would you believe Jesus is the only God if Jesus told you himself? (Ref: Revelation 1:8,11, 22:13). He that comes to God, Jesus, must first believe that he is God. And God will reward those that diligently seek him. Search the scriptures diligently and God will reveal to you that he is Jesus, “the Christ” (Jehovah Saviour)(I Corinthians 10:4).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: When and How were "the keys of the kingdom" of hea...: "Matthew 16:13-19 All scriptures are synergistic. They are all saying the same thing in a different context. There were three very importan..."

When and How were "the keys of the kingdom" of heaven used? (Matthew 16:13-19)

Matthew 16:13-19

All scriptures are synergistic. They are all saying the same thing in a different context. There were three very important points that the Lord wanted Peter to understand.

1. Jesus wanted Peter to understand the revelation that he is God, “The Christ.” Jesus knew that no one could get the revelation of who he was unless it came from the Spirit of God. Paul also received the revelation that Jesus was God by the Spirit (Ephesians 3:3-5).

2. Jesus establishes himself as the rock, and he would be the rock upon which the church would be built. Jesus is the God, in Spirit form, who followed the children of Israel in the wilderness. Look at this; who is God, save the Lord, and who is the rock save our God? II Samuel 22:32, 47, I Corinthians 10:4.

I guess you might say, what does this have to do with salvation and baptism? Look at I Corinthians 10:2. The Lord said that the children of Israel passed under the cloud and all passed through the sea were baptized unto Moses. Why were they baptized unto Moses? Because Moses was a type of saviour.

Now, we are to be baptized unto Jesus Christ because he is our Saviour. This establishes the fact that a name is always associated with baptism, not titles. In addition, Jesus lets Peter know that he is God, the rock and the Church would be built upon his name “Jesus Christ.” Jesus Christ is God’s highest name for salvation; for there is no other name whereby we must be saved. There is one Lord, one faith, and one baptism. Jesus is that one Lord, and the one baptism is in the name of the Rock, Jesus Christ.

These scriptures let us know that Jesus is both Lord and God. And salvation is built on the name of God, Jesus Christ, “The Rock.” Through grace, faith, repentance, baptism and the reception of the Holy Spirit we are saved by Jesus Name.  Thus, the Rock of salvation is built upon the baptism in Jesus name - "The Rock".

3. Jesus gives Peter the “keys of the kingdom of heaven.” What Jesus said was that whatever Peter binds on earth, it would be bound in heaven and whatever he loose on earth would be loosed in heaven.

"The keys of the Kingdom of Heaven,” how to be born again, and the great commission in Matthew 28:19 are all satisfied in this one scripture - Acts 2:38.  Acts 2:38  is one of the major highlights of my book. 

Jesus gave the keys to Peter.  Wouldn’t you think that this act was extremely important event  and that it might be important to our salvation? We should know what the keys were; and how they were used.

When Peter used the keys of the kingdom of heaven and gave the born again scripture in Acts 2:38, he said that everyone should;

1st key, repent,

2nd key, be baptized in Jesus name,

3rd key, and receive the Holy Spirit.

This is the first time Peter used the “keys of the kingdom of heaven” to open the door, Jesus Christ and to the Church. This born again scripture has been bound on earth and is bound in heaven and Peter did not loose it.  The gates of hell will not prevail against the baptism in Jesus name which is the Rock of our salvation.

All the apostles, preached, taught and baptized in the name of Jesus as spoken by Peter. Why would anyone baptize in titles or any other way not ordained and approved by Jesus Christ nor the apostles?

Preachers are always talking about following leadership and being obedient. Why don’t they follow the leadership of Peter and be obedient by baptizing people in the name of Jesus Christ?

Do they not understand or do they just refuse to obey? It’s so important that we obey the gospel because we will all see Jesus Christ when he comes with his mighty angels and in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ (II Thessalonians 1:7-8). When Jesus comes to sit on his throne, unbelievers’ eyes will be opened but it will be too late to say, now I believe.

Did Jesus break the Sabbath? No !! He would never break His own law.

John 5:1-24

This is a unique scripture because it shows, again, that Jesus is God, then Jesus says, his Father does the work. Let’s take a look at what Jesus did;

1. Jesus healed the impotent man on the Sabbath and told him to take up his bed and walk.  This is a violation of Jewish Law. No work should be done on the Sabbath. Only God would do this because God made the Sabbath.

2. Jesus forgave sin. This is a violation of Jewish Law – Only God can forgive sin

3. Jesus called God his Father. This is a violation of Jewish Law – No man should say, “God is his Father, for this is blasphemy. This makes that man equal with God.

4. Jesus tells the Jews that he only does things that he sees the Father do. This is a violation of the Law. No man can say he does what God does without saying he is God or equal with God; this is blasphemy.

We know as Christians that Jesus Christ is God. Therefore he can heal the sick on the Sabbath and tell the impotent man to take up his bed and walk because Jesus, as God, is Lord of the Sabbath. By the same token, only God can forgive sins according to the Jewish tradition. When Jesus forgave the sins of the man, he was demonstrating by his actions that he is God.

When Jesus says God is his Father, he is saying to the Jewish leaders that he is equal with God and he is, in fact, God himself. They understood Jesus to say he is God because the Jews believes in only one God. Therefore, they wanted to kill him for blasphemy

Now look at how Jesus explained to the crowd that he cannot do anything without the Father-Spirit. This is not so difficult to believe since we, as humans, can’t do anything without the Spirit of God. Our natural body is only a shell without the spirit. With our natural spirit we move and have our being.

When Jesus says, I only do what I see the Father do, Jesus is saying in my Spirit form, I have seen many things that I have done before I came to earth. Then Jesus shows us that the Spirit will commit all things to his manifestation as the Son. The Son will be the Judge and if you don’t honor the Son, Natural, then you can’t honor the Father, Spirit, that sent the Son. The Spirit sent the natural body of Jesus. Jesus is also explaining how these two manifestations of himself are working in concert to show us the greatness of his power and the mystery of his nature. We should never be under the impression that this operation of God is two or three persons.

These are manifestations of the same God. God can be in heaven as a Spirit and be on earth as a man at the same time. Jesus has a dual nature. Spirit and Man. Therefore, we should honor Jesus as God, (Natural), thereby honoring the Father as God, (Spiritual). (John 1:1, 14). In other words, we have the same God with a dual nature. Look at the power of the dual nature of God in verse 21. Jesus shows us that God, (Spirit), can raise the dead and he as a man  (Natural) can raise the dead. Jesus explains that God, the Spirit, will show his flesh greater works than this and you will be amazed. Understanding that Jesus is the one and only Lord God Almighty is the premise for this book that God has given me. The scriptures testify that Jesus Christ is God and Lord of the Sabbath  (I Corinthians 10:4, Revelation 1:8).
