Peace to my dear family, brothers and sisters! Amen.
Let’s open the Bible to John chapter 1 verses 1-2 and read together: In the beginning there was the Tao, and the Tao was with God, and the Tao was God. This Word was with God in the beginning. Amen
Today we will study, fellowship, and share " What is Tao 》Prayer: Dear Abba, Holy Heavenly Father, our Lord Jesus Christ, thank you that the Holy Spirit is always with us! Amen. Thank you Lord! Virtuous women [churches] send out workers - Food is transported from the sky from afar and supplied to us at the right time to make our spiritual life richer! Amen. Ask the Lord Jesus to continue to illuminate our spiritual eyes and open our minds to understand the Bible so that we can hear and see spiritual truths→ In the beginning there was the Tao, and the Tao was with God, and the Tao was →God. The Word became flesh → named Jesus, which the apostles heard, saw, saw with their own eyes, and touched with their own hands → there was originally the word of life, and this life was revealed through "Jesus"! Amen .
The above prayers, thanks, and blessings! I ask this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ! Amen
In the beginning there was Tao. What is Tao?
(1) Tao is God
Let’s examine John 1:1-2 and read them together: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. This Word was with God in the beginning. Note: "Taichu" → ancient, ancient, beginning, original, self-existing. If there is no word to express "further", use "Taichu". In the beginning, there was Tao, and Tao was with God. "Tao" is →【 God]! In other words, there was God in the "beginning"! Amen. This "Word" was with God in the beginning→ "At the beginning of creation, before the creation of all things, there was me. From eternity, from the beginning, before the world was, I was established. Reference - Proverbs 8:22-23. So, do you understand clearly?
(2) The Word became flesh
John 1:14 The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth. And we have beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father.
(3) The Word became flesh and was named Jesus. He was conceived by the Virgin Mary and born from the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 1:20-21...for what was conceived in her was from the "Holy Spirit." She will give birth to a son, and you must name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. "
(4) No one has ever seen God. God the Father revealed God through his only begotten Son.
John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, only the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has revealed Him.
(5) May there be a way of life
1 John 1:1-2 talks about the original word of life from the beginning, which we have heard, seen, seen with our own eyes, and touched with our hands → This "life" has been through the only begotten Son [Jesus] appeared, the apostles also saw it, and now they bear witness, passing on to you the eternal life that was with the Father and appeared with us! So, do you understand clearly?
(6) Life is in him, and this life is the light of man
John 1 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men. Verse 9 The light is the true light, which gives light to everyone who lives on earth → Jesus said to everyone, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Reference - John Chapter 8 verse 12.
(7) Jesus is the true image of God’s essence
He is the radiance of God's glory, the "true image of God's being," and he upholds all things by the command of his power. After he had cleansed men from their sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. Reference - Hebrews 1 verse 3.
[Note]: By examining the above scripture records → 1 In the beginning there was the Tao, and the Tao was with God, and the Tao was [ god ] → 2 "Word" became flesh, that is, "God" became flesh → 3 Conceived by the Virgin Mary from the Holy Spirit and born: named Jesus! 【 Jesus 】 His name means to save his people from their sins. . Amen! → As many as he received, he gave authority to become children of God, to those who believed in his name. "Reception" → "Word" Jesus became flesh! The Lord Jesus said: "Except you eat and drink the flesh and blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. → If we eat and drink" the Lord "the flesh" and "blood of the Lord", we have the "word" of Jesus and became the incarnate body and life → We put on the body and life of Christ → These people are not born of blood, not of lust It is not born of human will, but is "born again" from God. →This "immortal" body can inherit eternal life and the inheritance of the Heavenly Father. Amen! Do you understand clearly? Chapter 1 verses 12-13 and chapter 6 verses 53-56.
Alert: " Enlightenment in the flesh "→ false doctrine , many church teachings today are based on the fact that Adam’s body was created from dust, Rely on the law to cultivate the flesh, let the flesh become the Tao and become the spirit . This is what the "spiritual giants" of the previous generation taught you. →If this is the case, what is the difference between this and Sakyamuni who suffered hardships and cultivated his body to become a Buddha? You say it! Right? This is obviously false doctrine. → Hear therefore "the word of truth - and understand the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation! Receive the promise [ Holy Spirit ]. Amen! After being regenerated, we rely on the "Holy Spirit" to discern → which words are from "God"; those words that are from "man"; those words that are from "Satan" to tempt people. Come out of their false teachings → that we may no longer be children, caught up in the craftiness and deception of men, tossed to and fro by every wind of paganism, and to follow every heresies; Reference - Ephesians 4 Chapter 14.
alright! Today I would like to share my fellowship with you all. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit be always with you all! Amen
