And someone came to Him and said, “Teacher, what good thing shall I do so that I may obtain eternal life? Matthew 19:16 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law? Matthew 22:36. In the verses above when they are saying teacher, they are talking about Jesus. He was the greatest teacher who live but only because He was whole not just a part. If He was just a teacher, he would not be the greatest teacher, He needs all of Himself to be the great teacher.
In the New Testament, the reference to a teacher is said 62 times in the New American Standard Bible. The one who sits on the throne in is wholeness came down and became the teacher for us to learn and to understand what He has for us. You can throughout the gospels see Jesus sitting and being in the synagogues, teaching and proclaiming the good news. he was teaching but if he was just a teacher not being whole and one, being the great I Am, His words would have meant nothing. It is only by His wholeness that he is able to be all those facets, alone all those facets would be nothing and could not stand.
God created the word and created what was to be taught. So, Jesus knew what to preach and to teach and proclaim as he went from place to place, it was not from him but from himself being from heaven. But if He was not whole, He could not do this and would not be the great teacher.
Jesus answered and said to him, “You are the teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things? John 3:10. The rulers and the Pharisees and many others did not believe in the great teacher, what was coming was not from Him but from Heaven. I mention this as it is important because it is an example of how they only sought part of God, they wanted the law and God of the Old Testament because Jesus brought change and they were not open to change they had hardened hearts like I have talked about in another message. This verse that I found ties perfectly with today's message because it talks about, they do not understand what Jesus was saying and teaching them. they could not accept him as a whole, that he was God and from God. they sought the law and God is the law, but He is so much more than that. He is many facets in wholeness, the great I Am.
He came down from heaven; just so we might learn and repent of our sins so we can have eternal life. He did this as flesh, but he was still whole because everything which he sought and taught came from heaven it was just that facet of God that we saw. He never stopped being whole not for one minute.
He is whole and worship God for His wholeness today.
I thank and praise You, Jesus,
for your wholeness being the great I AM
In Jesus Name
Amen
