Jesus is the only filter we look and evaluate scripture
through -
John 14:7 - "If you had known Me you would also
have known the Father."
Jesus is the true picture of God. In Jesus we see God and we
see who God really is.
Everything in Old Covenant was a shadow and picture of who
God was. The images in the Old Covenant were like individual pieces of a jigsaw
puzzle. Each piece was important, each piece showed an image, each piece told a
story, but each piece was only part of the story. Jesus was the whole jigsaw
puzzle put together and his resurrection completed the jigsaw puzzle.
Everything Jesus did he did in relationship, with God, with
the Holy Spirit, with man, because the Father is only revealed within
relationship. Take God out of relationship and He becomes supreme and man
cannot relate to him. Suddenly, It becomes the duty of man to keep this supreme
being happy and to appease his anger. We cannot experience him totally because
we are always afraid we might upset him and he will punish us.
To know the Father you have to know Jesus. You can only
experience who God really is through Christ
