Jesus Presence Our Eternal Reality = Truth "Radix": Part V

Through Communion we know that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life

Jesus is the eternal reality. He is the Truth.

Jesus spoke most of His parables about the Kingdom of God. Truth is defined as reality. There is only one reality that is eternal and that truth is Jesus. That I may know Him on all levels. On the level of His resurrection and on the level of His suffering and even on the level of being conformed to the image of His death. How well do you know Jesus. I am not saying know about Jesus. I am not saying what you know the scriptures say about Jesus. I am talking about knowing Jesus Christ as Savior through the new birth. Knowing Jesus as Lord through baptism. Knowing the risen Jesus  through the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Knowing Jesus as your Shepherd who leads you to His Table. We get to know Jesus as Elohim, Jehovah, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Roi - by "Walking with Him in the paths of righteousness for his 'names' sake. If Jesus is your friend then you are constantly being transformed by His presence as you know the many facets of who He is, His nature and His character. One day as provider and the next day as your peace. Who is Jesus? 

In a previous blog we had a series on the New Worship Model. Knowing Jesus through the intimacy of personal Communion by revelation of the Holy Spirit in CommunionFire. The more time we spend with Him the more His presence transforms us from glory to glory. Jesus said the day is coming when true worshipers will worship me in Spirit and in truth. Truth = Reality. Jesus is our house and we have become His House. Jesus prayed that we become one as a dwelling place for His name - His story - His testimony. Through Communion we are first hand witnesses of the ever increasing story of Jesus. His story is the reality of His testimony. "The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy." Revelation 19:10

The truth is the presence of the Lord. The truth is where we meet with Him. That is the reality that is eternal. The Holy Spirit projects this reality to us in much the same way that the television networks project the reality of the World Cup to the world. "Now we see through a dark glass - like a blank, dark television screen. When we have Communion it is like turning on the TV with God's remote. The Holy Spirit picks the channel. When our eyes are opened it is like the television coming on to reveal what is being broadcast. Part one is just "Seeing". Part two as Jesus illustrated so well in Luke 24 - is "Recognition". When we sit at His Table - we are sitting in front of His screen. When we have Communion the "CommunionFire" turns on and we see something. When we are watching and we recognize Jesus then we are ready to receive what He has prepared for us to "feast on". He shares His life with us. It is only for a moment, but that is long enough. He shows us something, says something by the voice of the Holy Spirit or even does something (comforts, heals or makes us aware). Whatever it is is is a seed that grows in our hearts and minds all day. Throughout the day it becomes a part of our garden or like a tree. 

The reality is Jesus. Jesus = Truth. His body and blood is the way that reveals the truth of His reality and then we receive His life - the bread of heaven. We feed on His presence and we are nourished by His reality. "Jesus is the bread of life! If you eat His flesh and drink His blood you have life in you and He will raise us up on the last day."

The 30 Day Challenge
Have Communion every day for 30 days (you pick the start day) and watch it become the most important 30 days of your life! You will begin your friendship with the Son of God. You will learn how deep His love is for you when He smiles at you. You will know His touch that calms your heart in an instant. You will see glimpses of His glory and eternal Kingdom. He will meet you where you are, as you are, for who you are. You will know its Him because His presence will be real. He will make known to you everything He has heard from His Father. He will share His hidden treasure with you. You will become His friend and He will become yours. (2 Corinthians 3:18 and 4:18)
