“And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11).
God made His Word, the Word we read in the Bible, to be the one and only true Head. Jesus says, “But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren” (Matthew 23:8).
The Father has highly elevated the Word and made the Scripture the Lord. That’s why the Bible says, “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name” (Philippians 2:9).
When God raised Jesus from the dead, He made the Word of God the overall head. Christ rule is above all rulers, authorities, and governments; He has a title superior to all titles of authority in this world and in the next (see Ephesians 1:21).
As countries give name to their leader; some nations call their leader prime minister, some call them president. God also has given His Word the highest name because He is the Leader over all creation.
Therefore at the name of Jesus, or at the name of the Word of God, all creation including mankind should bow, and every tongue should confess that the Word of God is Lord to the glory of God the Father who gave us the Scripture.
Among mankind, no one is greater than the law, both the president, or prime minister, and governors, and judges, in short, everyone submits to the rule of law. The constitution governs all within that nation.
In the same way, God has a law that governs and rules His creation. The supreme law of God’s creation is Jesus Christ the Word of God, King of kings, and Lord of lords (see Revelation 19:13-16).
The Father made His Word the Lord and Master over mankind. Jesus says, “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am” (John 13:13). Jesus Christ is the one and the only true Master over all creation.
God is a Spirit, no one can see Him, and no one will ever see God. The only way to see God is through the Scripture, which is Christ. The Scripture is the Son of God. He is Lord. He is the express image of the person of God.
The Godhead dwells in the Scripture. It pleased God the Father that in the Bible should the fullness of God dwells. The Word of God is the express manifestation of the invisible God (see Colossians 1:15-19).
Scripture is the only way to God, the Word is the only true God, and the God of the Bible is the living God. No one can come to God the Father except through the Bible. The Word of God is Jesus Christ the Lord.
Anyone who believes that the Word of God is Jesus Christ shall be saved. Salvation comes no other way; no other name has been or will be given to us by which we can be saved, only this one name of the Holy Bible, which is Jesus Christ (see Acts 4:12).
PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, in your great love save me, so that I can truly obey your Word of hope, in Jesus name. Amen.
