1 | Jesus not knowing when the end will come | Bible general Archive 2 | twbab | 145992 | ||
Hey all...can someone help me with this. If Jesus is God on Earth in the flesh form, why doesn't Jesus know when the end of times will come? Why does he say only the Father knows...not the angels nor the son know... | ||||||
2 | Jesus not knowing when the end will come | Bible general Archive 2 | EdB | 145993 | ||
May I suggest you get yourself a book on the traditions and customs of the times of Jesus. In there you will see a fascinating description of Jewish weddings. One aspect of the wedding was the groom always went back to his father's house to prepare a home for his bride. He constructed their home as an addition to his father's house. The groom and perhaps his helper built the addition but it was never completed until the father declared the work complete. Then and only then the groom was allowed to assemble his marriage entourage and go and claim his bride. That decision was always the father’s and the son never knew when the father would give the word. Jesus constructed this same picture when He explained His Father’s house had many mansions and that He was going to prepare a place of us. John 14:2. In a continuation of this picture Jesus stated only the Father knew the time of His coming to claim his bride. Yes Jesus is God in that He is a Personage within the Godhead made up of three, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Each has a part in the salvation of man. God as the Father determines when the He will declare it is time for the His Son to fetch the bride, it is His decision and his alone, just as it was the Jewish father’s father’s call for his son.
