Incarnation to Resurrection
#RAD #ATEND G-d (Christ) #IIC714
Incarnation to Resurrection roughly three and one-half
years, in 12 weeks, Sunday through Friday (six days) per week
Day One of Eighty-four:
Way back in the 7th century B.C., Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 9:5 & 6 that – “…a child is born, the government will be upon His shoulder. His Name will be called:
Way back in the 7th century B.C., Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 9:5 & 6 that – “…a child is born, the government will be upon His shoulder. His Name will be called:
Isaiah was not alone in addressing /
Prophesying about the coming Messiah, King David, in the 10th or 11th century
B.C. also wrote, under Holy Ghost inspiration, that G-d – “...will
build your throne from generation to generation.” Psalm 89:4 & 5.
Additionally, in II Samuel 7:12 - 16, G-d tells us that He will -
"...will raise up [David's] seed, [One] who
will come forth from you after.." - David, and that G-d promised
that He - "...will be a father
to him, and he will be a son to Me." back in the 10th century B.C. And
still before King David’s day, Moses in the 14th or 15th
century B.C. prophesied about the coming Messiah, in Deuteronomy
18:15 – 22 we read of numerous prophetic utterances pointing to the day of
the Great Messiah.
Yet long before, immeasurably long before, Isaiah’s, King David’s, or even Moses’ day, even from before the foundation of the world, G-d the Father already had a plan to send G-d the Son (Jesus), the very word of G-d, to redeem mankind through the power of the G-d the Holy Ghost. We see this in Genesis 1:1; John 1:1; Proverbs 8:23 and even later in the New Testament, Philippians 2:6. Thus when we read in Matthew, Luke and John Chapter One about the introduction to the Incarnation, we are first given a genealogical history for the seed of King David, from Abraham to Jesus, Matthew; then given an overview of eye-witness testimonies, prophecies, and some family ties between Jesus and John the Baptist, Luke; and then finally we read all of the above summed up in three verses (41 words), John 1:1 – 3.
I’ve taken the liberty of assembling a weekly chart of daily readings to cover the chronology

“No Jesus, NO peace” and yet, “Know Jesus, KNOW peace”
How does one get to “know” Jesus? Simple, invite Him into your heart, as Jesus
says: “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and
opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.” [Revelation 3:20 NIV]
How can be assured that this Jesus stuff means anything? Well because the Bible tells us so, as the
Apostle Paul wrote:
“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is
Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be
saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it
is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” [Romans 10:9-10 NIV]
And for those of you who say to me, I
can’t be bothered reading the Bible, “it’s confusing” or “it’s a waste of my
time”, may I draw your attention to what the Bible says about wisdom: “The fear
of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is
understanding.” [Proverbs 9:10 NIV]
If nothing else, PLEASE read two chapters
from the Bible – (don’t own one, sorry NO excuse, if you’re reading this, you
can access this: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%203:16&version=NIV) John 3 and John
14!
John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the
world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life.”
And John 14:6 says: “Jesus answered, “I am
the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
me.”
Well that’s it, that’s Da Bauz’s Take on, “Incarnation
to Resurrection, Day One of Eighty-four” – this 7th day of January
