Luke 4:4-------Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

John 6:27---Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

v33---For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

Here we see that ‘meat’ and ‘bread’ in the word are synomous. Jesus said he gives life unto the world. So, that is showing some ‘life’ other than the life we are born with. For we already have that.

V35-And Jesus said I am the bread of life

v50--This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. This makes it look like he means his death; but it means he gave us his words. His words give us eternal life. His death paid the debt for our sins.

V63--It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirits and they are life.

Study this chapter carefully. It is wonderful.

To the unlearned, it looks like doubletalk, because it is spiritual. First, Jesus said the bread is my flesh you have to eat to live eternally. They get a picture of having to take a bite off his arm etc. Many left him over this, because they did not understand spiritual talk.

Then he says the flesh profiteth nothing. Now it looks like he reversed what he had just said, that his flesh gave them eternal life. And that is nothing? Woe, here. What is he saying??? Well, let’s look at it.

It is the spirit that quickeneth the words the words that I speak are spirit and they are life.

So there, we have it. The WORDS he spoke ----that is spirit-------that is life-------the Word was made flesh---- now it begins to come together... The Word is flesh, but not the body of clay he stood there in. See it??? I hope so. May God help all who read this to receive this great revelation.

v53----Except ye EAT the FLESH of the Son of man, and DRINK his blood, ye have no life in you.

Take a bite of his arm?? Take a sip of his blood, out of his are? No Noo No!!!

That is what the carnal mind thinks. But he said the WORDS I speak , that is what I am telling you to eat and drink. How do we eat that??? By studying and receiving the engrafted Word. The truth of it.

So this proves it is not talking of the fleshly body of Jesus. When it says the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, it is talking about the same kind of flesh Jesus said here we were to eat and drink. See it does not mean the man that he was, but the Words, the Spirit in him. The Word became flesh=(words we can take into our souls and live=eternal life---not temperal life) We are still to eat the same flesh today that they ate back then. Do we have the man Jesus here, now to take a bite of, if it means his literal body. But see, he made it plain that he spoke of the message he brought to earth. The word of God.


I know most people (including me) do not like long posts. But it is impossible to teach something like this in a short space. Please bear with it. It is worth it.

For this is one of the most misunderstood passages in the Book. And the most important one. For unless you get this right all you understanding will be messed up from now on.

The Words I speak are spirit and they are life. Unless ye eat my flesh, you have no life in you. The word was made flesh. But not carnal flesh. Not flesh that could die. This flesh (spirit---word) was eternal life. Can never die. Praise our glorious God and His Son Jesus Christ, our Lord.



Jesus said pray, “give us this day our daily BREAD.. Now, what was he talking about??? Is he saying to pray for food for our bellies? No. He is speaking of the Words = revelation of God’s Word.

So, we are to receive something fresh out of God’s Word each day. To grow thereby. Grow in grace and KNOWLEDGE of the Word. Without it, there is no growth.

But, back to our original thought. Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out the mouth of God. Is he saying as most people think that we are not to live only by our daily food we eat at our table? No, he is saying we will not have eternal merely by the daily portion of Word we receive.. We must finally get to every word. Understand the whole truth.

11Thes.2:10-12----because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie; That they all might be d**ned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

He that endureth unto the end shall be saved. Receive Word each day till you understand and believe all the truth or else be d**ned. He that putteth his hand to the plough and looketh back is not fit for the kingdom of God.

I hear so many people who think it does not matter if they see it right or not, ------folks, do not be deceived by this misconcept. unless you believe the TRUTH you will BELIEVE A lie and be d**ned. So it is clear that believing it wrong =(a lie) will d**n you. Please, don’t take getting the truth lightly. Your soul depends on it.

That is what Jesus meant “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

When he said the Word became flesh and dwelt among, it is not talking about the man Christ Jesus; it is saying Mary conceived in her womb, by the Holy Ghost a human person, Jesus made of a woman, made under the law, made of the seed of David, made in all points like unto his brethern, tempted in all points like unto his brethern, but, the Word that was flesh was the words that was spirit the message inside him. That fleshly man was not that word . The word inside him was. Jesus , the man, had a mind of his own the was subject to sin and be disobedient just as Adam. Just as we do. He could have sinned, he could have disobeyed, he could have failed, but he did not. If he had the word of God would have gone back to God, and our creation would have been lost eternally. But, that kinsman redeemer is still a man, a glorified Son in Heaven. He ever lives to make intercession to God for us.

Brothers and Sisters;

This is the most important message you will ever hear. You will see why if you carefully study it. I want to say to you---study the Word---not to prove a point, but to see what the Word really says. The only way to know (or prove) something is to find another Scripture that explains the one you are studying. You cannot find explanations of God’s Word anywhere else--except in the Word, itself.

If you learn all the prophecies, know all the mysteries, and could quote all the Word, yet, you are not on the right foundation; it will not do you any good in the end. Jesus said unless your house is on the rock foundation, it will fall, when the storms come. So, I am going to show you what the Word says the right foundation is.

Matt.16:13-19---Jesus asked his disciples, “whom do you say that I am”? Peter said, thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus answered, blessed art thou Simon, for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, That thou are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”

Notice, He never said Jesus was ‘God’; said he was the SON OF GOD. The church is built on that revelation; that is the rock, the fact that Jesus is God’s Son, not that Jesus is God.

Every church teaches that Jesus is God. Some say he is the only one. Others say he is the second person in a god-head. But, the Scripture does not say either one. You have to go by exactly what the Word says. After all, this is God telling us what he wants us to know about himself. No man on earth knows anything about God, except what he says.

This is a long study. I will not be able to say it all on one post. But, will say enough to let you see how to study this.

John 4:21-26-- v24---God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Numb.23:19--God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent;......

See, it said God is NOT a man. Also said he is not the son of man. So, how could he be Jesus??? Jesus was both a man and the son of man.

Luke 24:38-44----And he said unto them. Why are ye troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

Then he ate before them, showing he was still flesh, after the resurrection.

John 1:18---No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

Ex.33:20---And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

1Tim. 6:15,16----Which in his times he shall shew who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords: Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath see, nor can see: to whom be honour and power ever-lasting.

See, no man hath ever seen the Father, which light Jesus dwells in. Not even Paul.

Read the whole chapter of John 17. V3---And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, AND Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

v12---While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name:-----He is talking to his Father, said he did this by the authority of the Father---that is what --in thy name----means.

Esp,v20-23----Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one: and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Now, does that sound like Jesus is talking to himself?? See, he prayed that we all may be ONE ONE ONE AS THEY ARE ONE.

Gal. 3:26-29----For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew Nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all ONE in Christ Jesus . And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

See, Jesus’s prayer answered. We are all one, and he and his Father are one.

Rom.1:1-4-----v3----Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; and declared to be the SON OF GOD with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.

Here we are told that the day Jesus came forth as the begotten Son of God in his image was the day of the resurrection. Also, told that he came here as flesh, from the seed of David. = A man, the son of man, which God is not either one.

Acts 13:33----God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Psm.2:7----I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son: this day have I begotten thee.

11Cor. 5:19---To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them;.... This plainly states that God was in Christ, not that God was Christ.

GOD IS JESUS’S

Matt. 27:46----My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Matt.26:39----O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. Now, this plainly shows that two different wills are involved here.

John 5:19-47----v19-The Son can do nothing of himself, but., what he seeth the Father do

v22---Father judgeth no man---but hath committed all judgment into the Son

v26----For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; See, this was a gift from the Father to the Son.

v31---If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. There is ANOTHER that beareth witness of me; and I know that his witness is true.

v37----And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. (Jesus standing there talking to them, said they had never seen God, nor heard his voice.) God was in him, as they are in us----does not make us be them----did not make Jesus to be God.)

Heb.1---read all of it. v3---shows Jesus was the express image of God’s person, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

v9----Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even they God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Here God, calls himself God to Jesus, calls him God. This is where he inherited the name above all names, he was anointed or elevated to be our God. Not making him the Father; but, sharing that place of power. the power given him be God after the resurrection.

1Cor.15:22-28---- v24-- Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power,

v28---And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. This shows that for eternity Jesus will be subject to God the Father.

John 14:28---My Father is GREATER than I

John 8:16-18----Two bears witness--Son & Father

John 14:6-11-----Only means God was in Christ---everything he did showed the Father--”I came to reveal the Father, so, from me only, can you know him---you see him in me-------as the world should see Jesus in us.

1Jn.4:12----No man hath seen God at any time.

1Jn,2:22----He is anti-christ to deny the Father and the Son---this means to deny them as two separate beings.

1Jn.4:14---Confess that Jesus is s the Son of God----did not say confess that he is God.

1JN.5:9-13----To not believe Jesus is God’s Son, is to call God himself a liar.

now this is a great deep teaching. another one i must spend some time on.
it gives me a chance to ask a question that i have asked many times; but people just scoff it off. i really want someone to explain this to me. i wondered about this a long time. i think you can see what i see in this verse.
rev.1:1 this says the revelation of jesus christ which God gave unto him to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant john.
now my question is this; isn't that saying that God gave jesus a revelation of jesus? that is what it looks to me like it is saying. but each time i ask this or point it out to others; they just say no cant be. but i don't see why not; that is what it looks to me like it is saying. i know most people say this is the revelation of john; but no it say the revelation of jusus. said god gave this revelation to him, means to jesus. i would like to really get ahold of this.

Ravola,

I am very sorry that I have overlooked your question. Yes, the Word is saying that God the Father gave to His Son, Jesus a revelation of Jesus. I also remember being awed by this when I first realized what it was saying. Jesus, as a normal man, just like us, had to be given a revelation of who He was. I believe this is actually why Satan temped Jesus with the thought, that IF He were the Son of God, throw yourself down.etc. Maybe Jesus had that little doubt in himself sometimes; for He was tempted in all points as we are.

I wanted to answer this question for you. I was looking for some of the messages on who Jesus is in relation to God for another member, and found that your question had never been picked up on. I am sorry about that; but sometimes it is hard to get around to all which need attention.

Thank you for your participation in this community.

JoGlory, please study this one; I think it will help.

I think this is a very good explanation of the truth of who Jesus is. I beleive it would be very interesting for some of the new members of the board to read to help in understanding this.
