SEEING IS BELIEVING!

COLOSSIANS 1: 15

"Christ is the visible image of the invisible God! He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all of creation!"

Many people think that SEEING IS BELIEVING. Mere talk or conjecture is never enough proof for them. Their attitude is "what you see is what you get". To them reality is available only by our senses. That is why so many fail to believe in God, because they can not see Him or sense Him. In fact since the beginning of time God was invisible, with the exception of the birth, life and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Christ became the VISIBLE IMAGE OF THE INVISIBLE GOD! This was the answer to mans prayers to see, touch, hear, and visualize the Living God! We now have the Word of God, the Holy Bible, which contains the Truth about the Christ, the Living God by those who tell us that their SEEING IS BELIEVING!

The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus Christ the Lord God was born as a human being and the visible image of the invisible God. You could hear Him, touch Him, smell Him and most of all you could see Him. Once you taste the sweetness of the Lord, where can you go? All their senses made them confident of His existence. We heard His messages , we touched Him and saw Him among us. Even during this time many still did not believe which is no different than this present time. Even with the evidence before them, they could not understand. So to those who say that SEEING IS BELIEVING, think of all those who missed the Gospel and Truth of the Lord when it was discernible by their senses. It is by Faith we are Saved!

Jesus Christ was God in the human form. Man is made in the image of God. God exists in a different dimension than we do, but for these moments in time Christ was the visible image of the invisible God. He was even seen ascending into Heaven and His story is still told to this day in every part of the world. Men did not believe there senses then and now they do not believe because they can not perceive God with their senses. Men of faith and belief know the truth and the truth is what sets them free. We accept the free gift of life and the Salvation of the living God without Him present in the flesh, only in the spirit. SEEING IS BELIEVING, is true of those who come to a faith in Jesus Christ the Lord God!
