WHO WILL SEE GOD?

UNDAILY Episode 119


If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.” Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. 


JOHN 14, 7-14 (NIV)


Today we will focus on excerpts from the Gospel of John, where Jesus tells his disciples, "If you know me, you will know my Father as well; from now on you do know him and have seen him." This statement harbors a profound truth about the relationship we can have with God through Jesus Christ. Although, as we read in the prologue of the same Gospel, "no one has seen God"; it is only Jesus who reveals Him to us. Indeed, God cannot be seen. Even in eternal bliss, we will only know the Creator in part. Only Jesus knows the Father fully. Christ took on our nature and according to its laws conveys only what we can comprehend. He revealed to us the Father's love and His plan for salvation. If we want to be closer to God, we should come to know His Son better. We have been invited to do so.
