An intelligent faith
Beholding the life of Jesus Christ, we see a total stranger; a man of a completely different race, different culture, and above all, a wholly different nature- and one that we know not of; an indescribably passionate character, one we cannot fully grasp, neither can we estimate; a man most unpredictable, yet most certain, most exact; a man of the widest grasp, deeply cultured in Infinite Wisdom, intensely searching in mind and heart every moment- who ever brought wisdom forth from the eye of a needle, who can draw infinity from leaven and three measures of meal? Jesus did. A man whose every manner testifies of humble majesty and authority; a man fitting all roles, fitting all ranks as perfectly as the completer of a puzzle. Of Him every soul feels the thought of Divinity; He is the mind of God- the most meticulous, intelligent, wise, and the dearest thought of God- He is the infinite thought and the very infinite heart of God shaped out and made of finite substance for humanity to see and touch and hear; He is the express image of the Most High. None of these descriptions fully match Him. All can be testified of this Man, not because He came to us as God, (for He presented Himself to us as man), but because He came as a Man perfectly obedient to the laws of the Most High. He says, “Be ye perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.” His intense peculiarity was the natural design of perfect obedience to God. And yes, His nature was divine, for the word and Spirit of God are not of men but of the Divine, yet for men; and oh yes, we can be partakers of that most lovely divine nature! For He that gives us the power to become children of the Most High says, “we all, beholding as in a natural glass the glory of our Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory as by the Spirit of God.” “Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature”.
This most intelligent faith can only spring forth from the law of God, of which Jesus Christ was and is a living testimony. For thus saith the Lord, “Now therefore, if ye will obey My voice indeed, and keep My covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto Me above all people: for all the earth is Mine.”
