Will We Ever 'See' the Father?
mavis92379:
Thank You Kat. This was very helpful.
I believe you are correct that we all maintain our individuality. What I do not believe is true is that we all see God and know God the same. All of our experiences build our personality and therefore we all would view God individually.
1John 3:2 says as we see Him we shall be like Him. Philip 2:8,9 says that because of Jesus obedience God has HIGHLY EXALTED HIM. I do not think that is any different for any of us as individuals. As we see Christ, even now in these earthern vessels we shall be like Him. The more, Lord willing we lower ourselves and die to the flesh and serve one another the higher God will exalt us. He that is greatest among you shall be your servant ! If we carry this concept into the ressurection Christ has been EXALTED and given a name above every name ! When Paul says one star differs from another star in glory so it will be in the ressurection I would think that one who pushed on to know the power of Christs ressurection would be exalted to a higher name than another who was apprehended for less. There both part of one body but a Colonel sees and knows the General at a different understanding than a soilder even though God loves and cares for them both the same.
Than again I could be insane !

To tune in, a little, may I say, Kat and mavis92379, you are both correct as light, that can be both a particle and wave. ;D
The mortal, human, thinking mind, is not unique merely through limitation, but also is made so, through originality.
Limits need not be the only criteria to make one different to another, or higher or lower in prestige. Like one might have limits in understanding and another might have excessive skills in mathematics to draw a literal comparison. Yet notice, throughout humanity, consciousness has been rising to higher levels of consciousness OF God, as God demonstrates in us, through us and as us, His benevolent formlessness and Spirit of Love and Truth that subjugates death beneath our feet as we find and discover to our amazement, that our names are written in Heaven....whew...all in One Breath!

Kat that was beautifully put!! I Loved the way you worded it all. I feel like the apostles when they said, Will you not show us plainly of the Father? And Jesus said... If you have seen me, you have seen the Father!
I honestly had this wide eyed opening moment where these very words ran through my head...
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
It was as if I could hear our Lords voice.. wow.. It all makes sense now!
Thanks again Kat!
God bless,
Alex
