I. God the Son
The ministry of God the Son, as we have seen in previous lessons, is
distinct from that of the other two Persons of the Trinity. The Bible
gives much more information about His Person than about the Father and
the Holy Ghost combined. In fact, Jesus Christ is the Hero of the entire
Bible. The Bible records the history of His Story.
The Old Testament records the history of opportunities given to man
and his failure to use them properly. It establishes the need for a
Savior to rescue man from his own follies and redeem him back to God.
The New Testament chronicles the advent of that Savior and shows us
how to obtain that redemption based solely on the merits of the Savior.
A. The second Person of the Trinity
Matthew 28:19; 1 John 5:7
B. The God-Man
John 1:34; Matthew 16:1316; 1 Timothy 2:5; Hebrews 4:1415
But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and
ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom
(Hebrews 1:8).
1. Physical Son of Godconceived of the Holy Ghost
Matthew 1:1821; Luke 1:3435
2. Son of manborn of a woman
Matthew 1:2425; Luke 2:47
C. Creator of the physical universe
John 1:14, 911, 14; Hebrews 1:12
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that
are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions,
or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for
him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist
(Colossians 1:1617).
