Written by E. Stanley Jones, (1884-1973), an American missionary, theologian, and author.
The business of the Scriptures is to take us by the hand and take us beyond the words to the Word. The Scriptures are not the revelation of inspired record of the Revelation—the Revelation is seen in the face of Jesus Christ, the Word become flesh. The opening sentence of the Book of Revelation says, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants.” This is interesting and important. For in the rest of the Scripture, Jesus is revealing God, showing us in concrete, human terms what God is like. What a revelation of God we find in Him? There can be nothing higher, and there can be noting other – this is it!
He who has seen Me has seen the Father. [John 14:9]
The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. [Psalm 46:7]
