Savior Manifest Yourself to Us!

Joh 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Joh 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
Joh 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.


The power of Jesus was His Father's power.


Joh 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.


The words I speak unto you I speak NOT of myself but the FATHER that dwelleth in me, HE DOETH THE WORKS.


To see God has been something many throughout time have wanted to do. Knowing the INVISIBLE God exists, knowing the UNKNOWN God exists is factual. God wasn't a created thing and all the other gods worshipped by people, even those who worshipped the sun - they worshipped a created thing- the sun itself was created by God and not deserving of worship. The gods of the moon, the gods of the plants, the gods of the stars, they had gods for everything and they worshipped the gods of these things ignoring the fact the God of all created all things was the only God deserving of worship.


Jesus was a god in spirit form until the Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary and in that miraculous act that spirit god became flesh, became human. The god in human flesh divested himself of the spirit divinity he had to become human. As 'God with Us' Immanuel, he relied on His Father in heaven, he relied on the God invisible for all things. They wanted to see the Father even when they had God the Son with them because God the Son looked and seemed to be too much like them- human. How could they be sure this human was who He said He was? The very words coming from Him portrayed His uncreated side. No one locked Jesus up for being a mad, raving lunatic with delusions as many have since been locked up in madness of believing they are Him. The words coming from the divine human were from God the Father, the miracles of which there were too many to account fully of them all- were all from the power of God the Father- HE DOETH THE WORKS.


Joh 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.


Jesus told them...BELIEVE ME FOR THE VERY WORKS' SAKE. Believe that the Father was working through Him, believe that He was connected with the FATHER. BELIEVE and if you can't believe on just His word then believe because ACTIONS speak louder than words and the actions- the works He performed- were NO ordinary works but miracles of the like NO ONE else could perform. No one before Him had performed such miracles and if they were miracles they weren't commonplace but deserving of special notice. Jesus didn't want the glory for them, He wanted the glory to go to God the Father. Jesus was the divine vessel God was working through on earth. While God could have taken any ordinary man and given them the power, no ordinary man was sinless and in such connection with Him as was Jesus- sinless in His divine self, sinless in His humanity. The bond between the Father and between the God become flesh, had never been severed by a single sin. Jesus portrayed humanity connected to God fully without sin separating Him from God the Father. He wanted His followers to experience this connection by grace through Him, through His sacrifice of His spirit form of divinity making Himself subject to death.


Joh 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Joh 14:13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Joh 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
Joh 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Joh 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
Joh 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Joh 14:20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
Joh 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.


Savior manifest yourself to us! By Your mercy, by Your grace, by Your love, by the love of the Father, manifest Yourself to us, love us now and always!
