Point Number-3

If Christ Jesus was not always of flesh, but He is The Same Word, Who became flesh and also dwelt among men, then what nature is He before He also became flesh?

Notice the question that Christ Jesus raised to His disciples. He said to them, “…Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some [say that thou art] John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed [it] unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 16:13-17).

Is Jesus not flesh and blood like His brethren? And if His body of flesh and blood did not reveal The Truth of His identity to His disciples, then how did Peter receive The Word of Truth from The Father, WHO revealed to him that Christ Jesus is The Christ--The Son of The LIVING GOD?

Jesus has Testified of Himself and said, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life. But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him” (John 6:63, 64).

From this verse, Jesus has confirmed that it is His Spirit, Who is from GOD, WHO gives HIS Word of Life to the flesh of man, and not the flesh of man of itself. Notice that after many of His Own disciples had turned and walked away from Him, Jesus said to His twelve disciples, “Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God” (John 6:67-69).

And Paul testified and said, “Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty” (2 Corinthians 3:17). Notice that when we read this passage in its’ context, Paul was not speaking of some other Spirit when we read the books of Moses. Paul is speaking of Christ, Whom men could not behold, because there was a veil of blindness to The Truth over their faces.

To makes a distinction between those, who have The Truth and those, who have blinders on, and do not see The Truth. Paul said, “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
