Wednesday - October 30. Topic: God is pictured in His Son. None of us can really grasp how great God our Father is. The Bible says that He is so great even the whole universe cannot contain Him. He’s so beyond our comprehension that He had to make Someone who could show us His love, Someone who was within our realm, Someone we could see, Someone we could feel, Someone we could experience, Someone who would bring God down to the level of our comprehension, one Man who was like Himself, whom He called His Son. God stooped to send His Son, Jesus Christ, to be an example of what God Himself is like. Jesus is God’s most outstanding means of communication with us, communicating to us His own love by means of His own Son. Jesus is like the tip of the iceberg, the part we can see. The greatest part of the iceberg, God, is out of sight. Even though we can’t see the rest of the iceberg, we can get an idea of what it is like from the part that shows, the part that’s in our realm. The Bible says that God is love (1 John 4:8), and we know that is true because of the loving part of Him that we can see in Jesus! — John 1:18 ESV – No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known. John 14:9 ESV - Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? John 3:18 ESV - Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
