The LORD God’s Plan . . .
Of the mystery of the plan of YHWH (with inserted vowels YAHWEH transliterated JEHOVAH commonly interpreted the LORD) to reconcile mankind unto Himself through Christ Jesus (also read – John 6:44 & 14:6; 1Co 1:9; Colossians 1:13):
- “To carry out all that Your hand and Your will and purpose had predestined (predetermined) should occur.” Acts 4:28 (AMPC)
- “So repent (change your mind and purpose); turn around and return [to God], that your sins may be erased (blotted out, wiped clean . . . . And that He may send [to you] the Christ (the Messiah), Who before was designated and appointed for you—even Jesus.” Acts 3:19-20 (AMPC).
- “I will raise up for them a prophet (Prophet) from among their brethren like you, and will put My words in his mouth; and he shall speak to them all that I command him.” Deuteronomy 18:18 (AMPC)
Indeed, throughout His Ministry, the Lord Jesus only spoke and did as He heard from His Father (see – John 5:19 & 8:26,28,38 & 12:49-50 & 14:10,24b). Throughout the Old Testament/Old Covenant between the LORD God and mankind, the prophets relayed information about The One to be sent by God the Father . . . . Isaiah prophesied about The Branch,
- “And there shall come forth a Shoot out of the stock of Jesse [David’s father], and a Branch out of his roots shall grow and bear fruit. [Isa.4:2; Matt.2:23; Rev.5:5; 22:16.]” Isaiah 11:1 (AMPC).
In the New Testament/New Covenant between the LORD God and mankind ratified by the sinless blood of Jesus, the Word of God made flesh or the Living Word of God – YESHUA/JESUS confirmed of Himself,
- “I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser. Any branch in Me that does not bear fruit [that stops bearing] He cuts away (trims off, takes away); and He cleanses and repeatedly prunes every branch that continues to bear fruit, to make it bear more and richer and more excellent fruit.” John 15:1-2 (AMPC)
And that others from all nations engrafted to be a singular entity which is the Church – the Body of Christ to which God the Father appointed the Lord Jesus “the universal and supreme Head” (read – Romans 11:17; John 10:9,16 & 13:20; Galatians 3:13; Ephesians 1:22).
