JESUS CHRIST
(THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD)
David Abankwah
SERIES: Day 2
Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘HEAR, O ISRAEL, THE LORD OUR GOD, THE LORD IS ONE.
-Mark 12:29 | NKJV
God is just a title. If we need to know the God we serve very well, then we need to know His name. If someone asks you what is the name of the God you serve what will you say? Many church members claim they are serving God but they don’t know the God they are serving. They claim they are serving God but this God has never revealed Himself to them before. You need to know the God you serve and not what someone has told you. If you are a true worshipper of the God you serve, then He would have made Himself known to you and this all depends on the faith you have in the God you serve. As we all know, without faith it is impossible to please God.
Because the foundation of the faith of many church members is shaky, there is no way God is going to reveal Himself to them. It is not enough to believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. There is more to Jesus Christ than just Him being the Son of God. You need to catch the mystery that He is the God we have been talking about from Genesis to Revelation. He is not 1/3 percentage or part of the Godhead as many know Him to be. In Jesus Christ, dwells all the fullness of the Godhead. The God who walked the earth some years ago is the One and only true God. There is no other god beside Him on His left hand or right hand.
As Isaiah 44:8 confirmed in the Old Testament concerning the oneness of God, it was also repeated in the New Testament too. There was one time when one of the scribes of the Jews came to ask Jesus Christ what the first commandment having perceived already that He had answered them well, Jesus Christ first addressed His question by telling him the Oneness of God. The scribe who could have been one of the believers of our time now, was lacking something crucial in his faith and Jesus Christ had to to help him out. Maybe you have been in the church for many years but you may not have heard that the Creator is the Lord Jesus Christ (Mark 12:29).
So for those of us who don’t flow with the Old Testament, the One and Only True God has confirmed in the New Testament concerning His Oneness. Your belief or unbelief cannot change who He is. It is in your best interest to accept this mystery otherwise you can’t be a believer and be saved (Romans 10:9-10). Even if the real person of man is the one who is the inner man, then the real person of Jesus Christ was not His body but the inner man who was inside of Him. That inner man was the Father we all knew Him to be in Genesis 1:1. At first we didn’t know His name, that was why He was called God but now we know His name and that name is Jesus Christ.

Until you believe that the Creator of the Universe who is the One and Only true God is Jesus Christ, you cannot be saved.
