Title: We cannot see the Holy Spirit but we do see Jesus, His express image    
  
  
  
  

    

  
  
  
  


But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of the Holy Spirit should taste death for every man.
The Holy Spirit, who is the eternal, omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent Father of all life, impregnated Mary in order for Christ Jesus (the eternal Word) to be born into the human world for the purpose of fulfilling His prophetic Word regarding the redemption of mankind.     

Christ Jesus` suffering, death annd resurrection has brought the potential for healing, redemption and Eternal Life for every man.     

Because Christ Jesus perfectly performed His task as servant and sacrifice He is now King Of Kings and Lord Of Lords with all power in heaven and earth under His authority.     

In order for the potential that is ours by the Grace of the Holy Spirit, we must `see` Jesus.     We `see` Jesus by believing that He is Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Saviour, Lord and King according to the Word.     

Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your Lord.
The reason that the Lord did not want man to make an image of Him is that He would make His own image and He would call Himself Jesus.     

Any other attempt to visualize the Lord other than by His express image would by default be false.     It would result in man imagining what the Lord wanted to say and do rather than the Lord revealing Himself in Truth.     

Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
Here is the eternal Word Of God speaking to the eternal Spirit Of God in agreement that He is willing to be manifested in the flesh to accomplish the will of the Holy Spirit.     

It is not two persons communicating about a plan.     
This is the consciousness of God submitting to the heart of God to become the Son Of Man and accomplish the Will Of God.     

It is not any different than how each of us conceive in our hearts a desire and then consciously determine to pursue it.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.
`The Word was made flesh` means that the eternal Word Of The Lord was born into the human family.     

`begotten of the Father` speaks to the fact that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary.     

`full of grace and truth` speaks to the character of the Holy Spirit being manifested in the Soul and Body of Christ Jesus.     

Christ Jesus is the express image of the Father, and that image is the pattern used to create Adam and all humanity.     We are Spirit Soul And Body as is our Creator, Saviour and Lord, Christ Jesus.

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Who gave Jesus this power and authority?     
His Holy Spirit Father who had birthed Him, annointed Him and raised Him from the dead is the source of all things and Jesus is His express image.     

Remember:
    Jesus is the eternal Word in flesh and
    the Word is inseparable from the Holy Spirit .     

If all power in heaven and earth belongs to Christ Jesus there is no power or authority left for any other being in the universe.     
This means that He and He alone is
    Mighty God
    Everlasting Father
    Saviour
    Lord
    King .     

This verse speaks to the singleness of God as manifested in Christ Jesus.     In the next verse Jesus tells us to teach and baptize people in His name as He is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Only the Lord is worthy of worship.     His creation should never be worshipped even though there are millions of people around the world who are environmentalists, Nature Lovers, Earth Lovers and Animal Lovers who never give the Creator the time of day .     

The Holy Spirit`s pleasure is to give His kingdom to His joint heirs of Christ Jesus .     

And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of the Lord did lighten it, even the Lamb is the light thereof.
Here we see our Lord Jesus, who is the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world, being the light of our lives.

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
Jesus is worthy.     He is the only one who is worthy.     His Holy Spirit Father has glorified Him with all power in heaven and earth .      Jesus will reign forever and ever.     

Jesus is the righteous judge who will judge the living (believers) and the dead (unbelievers) .
