The Mission

John 1:18

No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

John 14:6

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

Jesus’ mission was to explain and lead us to the Father.

Matthew 28:19, 20

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Your mission and my mission is to explain and lead others to Jesus - so He in turn can explain and lead them to the Father.

John 3:14-17

“As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.”

The redemptive work of Jesus on the cross is the means by which you and I may be led to the Father (the end goal).

So…

Has the Father been explained to you?

Have you been led to the Father?
