Shemen Camp 26: S05 The Mystery of Jesus Christ As A Faithful Witness & The Firstborn of the Resurrection

Jesus Christ is Described as the Faithful Witness. 1. This is because Jesus Christ modeled to all mankind during His earthly life and ministry the perfection of the God-kind of Life He multiplies bread in the wilderness John 5:17-23, Mathew 9:1-7. 2. Jesus Christ witnessed about who God the Father is, He was the one who showed us what God looked like - Colossians 1:15 (NLT), John 10:30, John 14:6-11, Mathew 11:27 3. Jesus is the faithful witness because God was in Him reconciling the world unto Himself by the preaching of the gospel of salvation, Healing and Deliverance — 2 Corinthians 5:18-19 •The First Begotten of the Dead or the Firstfruits of the Resurrection of the Dead. The reason Jesus is called the firstborn or the firstfruit of the resurrection is not because he was the first to die and be resurrect from the dead. To say Jesus died and resurrected from the dead is not a correct statement, why? Because no man dies and resurrects himself from the dead. When the Angel of death, takes a hold of you, He is so powerful that you cannot deliver yourself from his hand except someone with a higher power than the Angel of death. So in the case of Jesus, the Holy Spirit did (Psalm 16:10, Romans 8:11). Be blessed as you listen to this thought provoking and challenging teaching from our father!
