IN THE BEGINNING PART III

The Lord Jesus, who is the Creator of all things and the fountain of life, was manifested in the flesh. He was sent for a purpose, one purpose to give us the chance to eternal life. Without Christ, his death, his resurrection, we would be condemned to death, eternal death.

Luke 2:11
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

John 1:14
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.

1 John 1:2
For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Christ tells His disciples that the Father is the head, and He had sent Him to instruct and to save mankind. Now the sender is greater than He who was sent.

We have 2 spiritual beings here, not one, but two, one being greater than the other.

John 5:19
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

1 Corinthians 11:3
But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

John 14:28
Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

There was a purpose for Christ from the beginning of his existence, from being the Creator, our Sacrifice, the beginning, and the end. Yet in all the Scripture he Glorified God. Christ made it clear He could do nothing of himself, the power came from the Father. Christ came to introduce the Father, to let everyone know there was another, one more powerful than Him. Prior to Christ crucifixion his prayer was that all might know Jehovah;
