WHO IS CHRIST?

@Frits 

Thank you for starting this thread.

Jesus is God incarnate, and in the garden God told Satan that He was going to crush Satan's head. When God entered into His creation, He did exactly what He promised to do, and calls on all repent and believe Him.  Praise God.

The Serpent or the Devil lost his authority. He cannot do what he did before to take the people of the world by default upon their death. 

Jesus said I have the Keys of Death and Hades. Revelation chapter one.

Now every one is judged by the Judge of all the people of the world the one who crushed the head of the Serpent, the one who took the authority from the Serpent. All the dead heard the Gospel from Jesus when Jesus descended to the place of the dead for three days after his death on the Cross. And they had the chance to believe or not to believe. They had to make their own decision. 

The people who live at the time of their death they appearel before the judge of all Jesus Christ to be judge  according to their faith in him. If they are believers they are not judged by if they died in their denial towards Jesus Christ their denial is their Judgement.

I appreciate your taking the time to respond. 

From what I know the Heavenly Father said that Jesus is his only Son. 

That makes him the First and the Last. And there is no competition. All Jesus is the only heir. And the Heavenly Father will give him the Kingdom when Jesus completes his Mission. The Kingdom was to be given to the one who will bring children to the Heavenly Father from all tribes and creeds and clans of the world. This is what Jesus accomplished with his death on the Cross.  

Today there people from every tribe and creed and clan in the world that say Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and MY KING.  And Jesus say YES I AM. And ALL THE HEAVENLY HOST say yes JESUS CHRIST INDEED IS. 

That's how I see it. 

One must not forget a couple of things:

First, one must not get this backwards. When He returns, THEN He BEGINS His Mission! Our mission is not HIS Mission. WE are commissioned:

Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV)

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,

"All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. (Greek: Ἐδόθη μοι πᾶσα ἐξουσία ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς = "Is-given to-me all authority in [the]-sky and upon [the]-earth") 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen."

HIS Mission begins when He returns:

1 Corinthians 15:20-28 (KJV)

20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits (singular) of them that slept. 21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall ALL be made alive. 23 But every man in his own order:

(0) Christ the firstfruits (singular);
(1) afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 
24 (2) Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 

25 For HE MUST REIGN, TILL HE HATH PUT ALL ENEMIES UNDER HIS FEET. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. (See Revelation 20:14.) 27 For "he hath put all things under his feet." {But when he saith, "all things are put under him", it is manifest that "he" is excepted, which did "put all things under him."} 28And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

His subjugation of "all things" begins at His Second Coming, and ends at the Great White Throne Judgment with the death of death! It's after that happens that He gives the Empire He has built to His Father, God, that HE may be "all in all!"

Also, one must remember that, although He is God's "only begotten Son," He is not His ONLY Son!

Romans 8:1-30 (KJV)

1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ (in the Anointed One) Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE LAW might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But YE ARE NOT IN THE FLESH, BUT IN THE SPIRIT, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken (resurrect) your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For AS MANY AS ARE LED BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD, THEY ARE THE SONS OF GOD. 15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received THE SPIRIT OF ADOPTION, whereby we cry, "Abba" (The Hebrew word for "my father" is "Abiy" or "AViy." A little Hebrew child says "Ab-bah" much as English-speaking toddlers say, "Da-da," instead of "Daddy"), "Father." 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD: 17 And IF CHILDREN, THEN HEIRS; HEIRS OF GOD, AND JOINT-HEIRS WITH CHRIST; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together.

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest (down-payment) expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation (revealing) of the sons of God. 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected [the same] in hope (confidence), 21 Because THE CREATURE ITSELF ALSO SHALL BE DELIVERED FROM THE BONDAGE OF CORRUPTION INTO THE GLORIOUS LIBERTY OF THE CHILDREN OF GOD. 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23 And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for THE ADOPTION, [to wit], THE REDEMPTION OF OUR BODY (OUR RESURRECTION). 24 For we are saved by hope (confidence): but hope (confidence) that is seen is not hope (confidence): for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for (why does he still anticipate it)? 25 But if we hope for that we see not, [then] do we with patience wait for [it].

26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God.

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are THE CALLED according to [his] purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he (the Messiah) might be the firstborn among MANY BRETHREN. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

Yes, the multiplication of the Firstborn Son was not via physical means, such as a marriage to a human woman would facilitate.  The multiplication He was after was of the Spirit. "That which is born of Spirit is spirit."  John 3:6  This is what happens when we are born-again.

By thinking about and discussing CHRIST, the necessity of the new birth comes to the fore.

CHRIST is GOD HIMSELF, that is the only precious 'seed' that can bring about the new birth. Only when a person believes that 'seed' who says Jesus Christ is God, can he be born again.

By birth a person comes from the darkness of his old existence, the body of his mother, into the light. The new birth brings a person from the darkness of sin into the heavenly light of God's Kingdom, Hallelujah!

Jesus Christ is GOD HIMSELF, Nicodemus had to accept Him as his Redeemer, then he would be born again, and only then would he become a child of the Most High. (John 1:12)

The 'mother' of Nicodemus was Judaism, the Jewish religion, with which one does not please God, which does not cleanse and sanctify man, and in which there is no redemption of sins! Nicodemus had to let go of all that. (John 3:4) 

The oil with which Aaron (high priest) and also David king of Israel were anointed, was an image of the Holy Spirit. The oil had to portray that this man was chosen by God and that He was with him. 

The oil of the OT was an image a representation of the Holy Spirit, of whom we can read in the NT that He is God Himself. (John 4:24)

But the Lord Jesus Christ is born of the Holy Spirit, He is the 'Only begotten God'. (John 1:18 Peshitta)

From eternity the Holy Spirit is upon Him, He Himself is the CHRIST, That Holy, That Mighty God. (Isa.9:6)

Saul and David, and all the kings of Israel after them, they were all kings for a time, but the Lord Jesus Christ is God Himself and therefore He is King forever and ever.

The many kings of Israel including King David had to portray by means of the anointing with oil that God Himself is King, and that has been fulfilled and become true by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Shalom, @Frits.

It's likewise important to recognize that He is NOT GOD as He once was! He was referred to as "the SON of God," He referred to Himself mostly as the "Son of man" (Matthew 8:20; 9:6; 10:23; 11:19; 12:8, 32, 40; 13:37, 41; 16:13, 27-28; 17:9, 12, 22; 18:11; 19:28; 20:18, 28; 24:27, 30, 37, 39, 44; 25:13, 31; 26:2, 24, 45, 64;

Acts 7:56;
Hebrews 2:6;
Revelation 1:13; 14:14), and OCCASIONALLY to Himself but MOSTLY by others as "the SON of God" or "the SON of the Highest"
(Matthew 4:3, 6; 14:33; 26:63; 27:40, 43, 54;
Mark 1:1; 3:11; 15:39;
Luke 1:32, 35; 3:38; 4:3, 9, 41; 22:70;

He prayed TO His Father, whom He called "God"; God said of Him, "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased" (Matthew 3:17; Matthew 17:5; Mark 9:7; Luke 9:35; 2 Peter 1:17; 1 Corinthians 4:17), and we are told that "the Word (who was God) BECAME FLESH and dwelt among us!" (John 1:14).

No, sir. The mother of Nicodemus was a JEWESS! a "YHUWDIYT!" a "Daughter of Yhuwdaah ('Judah')!" It's not just the "Jewish religion"; it's the HERITAGE through birth! He was giving the word "birth" its literal meaning when he asked, "How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?" (John 3:4)

Yeeshuwa` was explaining in the rest of the conversation:

John 3:5-21 (KJV)

5 Jesus answered,

"Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit."

9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him,

"How can these things be?"

10 Jesus answered and said unto him,

"Art thou a master (teacher) of Israel, and knowest not these things? 11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you [of] heavenly things? 13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, [even] the Son of man which is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God."

He didn't "have to give up" his heritage! He only had to ADD TO IT the heritage that he would also receive by being born of the Spirit!

The oil of the Temple was symbolic; however, it was NECESSARY to show to human beings that a man was so chosen - so selected - so ANOINTED by the Ruwach haQodesh (the Holy Spirit) of God! And, when David was so anointed, we are told that he was so anointed with the Ruwach: "Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. ...."

Again, He is the SON of God, the MEDIATOR between God and man, the great HIGH PRIEST "forever after the order of Malkiy-Tsedeq!" "My King of Righteousness!" However, don't lose sight of the fact that all the kings of Israel (or rather, of Yhuwdaah or "Judah") were also those who were "anointed ones" - messiahs of God! "christs" of God! They were not "false christs" nor were they "antichrist"; they were LEGITIMATE messiahs, anointed to be King! It is only the One whom we call "Yeeshuwa`" or "Jesus" who is the ULTIMATE "Messiah" - the ULTIMATE "Christ" - because His Kingdom will be FOREVER!

One of the jobs of being a king, especially in the kingdom of Israel, is to be the "supreme court judge" for the nation. All lesser matters could be handled by lesser judges, but from time to time an issue would have to be escalated to the king to handle. David knew this, and Solomon recognized this as the most important thing he could ask for from God - His WISDOM in deciding matters for his people. Here's what Solomon prayed and how God responded:

1 Kings 3:5-13 (KJV)

5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said,

"Ask what I shall give thee."

6 And Solomon said,

"Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as [it is] this day. 7 And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I [am but] a little child: I know not [how] to go out or come in. 8 And thy servant [is] in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude. 9 GIVE THEREFORE THY SERVANT AN UNDERSTANDING HEART TO JUDGE THY PEOPLE, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?"

10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing. 11 And God said unto him,

"Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment; 12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I HAVE GIVEN THEE A WISE AND AN UNDERSTANDING HEART; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee. 13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days."

Again, Jesus the Christ, or Yeeshuwa` the Messiah of God, is the SON of God, and WILL BE the King of Israel, and after the first one thousand years of His reign, He'll be the King of kings of the whole world.

Consider His OWN WORDS:

Matthew 25:31-46 (KJV)

31 "When the Son of man shall come in his glory (brightness), and all the holy angels with him, THEN shall he sit upon the throne of his glory (brightness): 32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats: 33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand,

"'Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.'

37 "Then shall the righteous answer him, saying,

"'Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?'

40 "And the King shall answer and say unto them,

"'Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it] unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done [it] unto me.'

41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand,

"'Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.'

44 "Then shall they also answer him, saying,

"'Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?'

45 "Then shall he answer them, saying,

"'Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not to one of the least of these, ye did [it] not to me.'

46 "And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal."

Note that He did NOT at this time have the angels throw them into the Lake of Fire. That will come later. This is simply a WAR TRIBUNAL after the war of Armageddon in which He will judge the participants in this war on His Land, for His Land!

He also gave this parable:

Luke 19:11-27 (KJV)

11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. 12 He said therefore,

"A certain nobleman (Himself) went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them,

"'Occupy (Trade with this) till I come.'

14 "But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying,

"'We will not have THIS [man] to reign over us!'

15 "And it came to pass, that WHEN HE WAS RETURNED, HAVING RECEIVED THE KINGDOM, THEN HE COMMANDED these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying,

"'Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.'

17 "And he said unto him,

"'Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.'

18 "And the second came, saying,

"'Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.'

19 "And he said likewise to him,

"'Be thou also over five cities.'

20 "And another came, saying,

"'Lord, behold, [here is] thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin: 21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.'

22 "And he saith unto him,

"'Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, [thou] wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: 23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury (interest)?'

24 "And he said unto them that stood by,

"'Take from him the pound, and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.'

25 "(And they said unto him,

"'Lord, he HATH ten pounds!')

26 "'For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him. 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and SLAY [THEM] BEFORE ME!' "

I will look up the verses and give you a response later.

There is something striking about Jesus while he sojourned on earth and how he talked. 

He did not talked like the other people did. Like let's go to the Temple and bring in our sacrifice and give gifts and asked the Lord our God for something and make our bows to him.

Why he never spoke the words that the Lord my God will guide my feet, just like the other people and prophets spoke about giving thanks to the Lord our God the Holy One of Israel the Creator of Heaven and earth let's worship him and praise his name the God of Israel. 

Why he never subject himself to the Lord God the Holy One of Israel, the creator of Heaven and earth and why he did not pray like the prophets prayed before him. Even Moses prayed before him.

Why he prayed like no other prophet prayed before him.

Why he talked and prayed like he was not send by the Lord God of Israel the Holy one of Israel the Creator of Heaven and earth and the creator of man and the creator of the Nation of Israel. Why he did not prayed to the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and Jacob and the God of Moses who delivered them out of Egypt and gave them the Cirumcision and the Law and the Covenant of Sinai. 

But at the same time he did not forbid others as they were under the bonds of the Sinai Covenant. 

And what did he do then. 

They did not see him washing according to the customs before entering the Temple. And subject himself to the cleansing rituals in the book of Leviticus. 

Solved this one please. He touch the lepers and the dead and unclean people and he bless the bread and the fish and subjected everyone to eat without washing their hands. And he bless the bread and fish without washing his hands and Without praying and the bread was multiply. 

Why Jesus did not subject himself to the cleansing laws of the Covenant. 

Because Jesus was the Holy one of Israel, the Lord God Almighty in his former Glory.

From what I know the Heavenly Father said that Jesus is his only Son. 

It's kind of beside the point, but Jesus is his only begotten son, Adam is said to be son of God for God created him directly. Angels are referred as sons of God. Only Jesus is begotten son.
