I must work the works of Him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of GOD? He answered and said, Who is He, Lord, that I might believe on Him? And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen Him, and it is He that talketh with thee. And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped Him. And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. (Joh 9:4-5, 35-39)
The greater works that GOD has called His people to, are not because we are greater, but because it is the Spirit working in us both to do and to will of His good pleasure. Christ has ascended and is on His Throne, and while we are here we are to do His will and work, just as He did the will and work of His Father while He was here. This glorifies not only the Son who is our Lord, but also the Spirit that guides and directs, and accomplishes the work in us, and the Father who is over all.
He is worthy of worship, not only because He is GOD the Son who is the Son of GOD, but because of His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary in our place. He took our sIn debt, and put to death the flesh, that we might have life, and His righteousness. If we believe, repent of our sIn, and receive Him by faith in what He has already done, and who He is, we are born again and translated from the kingdom of darkness into His Kingdom of light, the Kingdom of His dear Son.
As ambassadors of that Kingdom, we are called to minister to those around us who are hurting and in need, that they might see Christ in us, the hope of Glory. As His disciples, we are commanded to love one another as He has loved us, and to grow in Him through His Word, that all may know we are His disciples. As ministers of reconciliation, we are commissioned to go and tell the Good News of Jesus Christ, that those who hear the Gospel and believe in faith and repentance might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD with forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
