Subject: Knowing God |
Bible Note: Hi Hank, Knowing the triune God is key. Hebrews 4:14, "Since then we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of (God), let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin." John 17:1, "...Father, the hour has come; glorify Thy (Son), that the Son may glorify Thee," John 17:3, "And this is eternal life, that they may know Thee, the only true (God), and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent." John 17:5, "And now, glorify Thou (Me) together with Thyself, Father, with the glory which I had with Thee before the world began." 1) 1 John 5:20, "And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, in ordr that we might know (Him) who is true,..." John 20:31, "...and that believing you may have life in (His) name." 2 Tim 3:14, "You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them; 15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is inspired by (God) and profitable for..." John 10:14, "I am the (g)Good (s)Shepherd, and I know My own, and My own know (Me)." 1 Cor 3:16, "Do you not know that you are a temple of (God), and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?" The parentheses are mine to encourage comparisons. The capitalized "High Priest" is not in the NASB but is in the NKJ. From the heart, Ray |
