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.
