JESUS IS OUR PROPHET
Jesus as our mediator fulfills a threefold office of a prophet, priest and king. We can separate these for the sake of discussion but they cannot be separated from reality. I Timothy 2:5 says that “there is one Mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus…”
A prophet is someone who speaks forth the Word of God, someone who speaks for God. And Jesus Christ is that person. As a prophet, He reveals to us, by His Spirit and His Word, the very will of God for our lives. He alone imparts all true knowledge of God and enables us to receive it. If you want to know what God thinks about something, then look to Jesus!
John 1 states unequivocally that Jesus is the Word of God. He declares that word in a personal and intimate manner. If you want to know what God says about salvation, heaven, hell, prayer, finances, and relationships --- then look to Jesus who brings us the Word of God!
All the sacred repository of truth is found in Christ alone.
He is the sum and substance of all truth.
He is at the center of every truth.
He embodies truth. He is the truth!
See John 1:1-18; 14:6 and 18:37!
Jesus Is The Sweetest Name I Know
