The Prophethood of Christ: Part 4 - Christ the Greater Prophet

TBC Glassboro Sermons and More · The Prophethood Of Christ: Part 4 - Christ The Greater Prophet
God revealed to Moses that He would raise up a greater prophet than Moses, who would speak those things which the Father commands Him to speak.
  • I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you, and I will put My words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him. - Deuteronomy 18:18

A prophet like Moses is one with whom God has stood face to face, spoken mouth to mouth, and has seen the form of the Lord. 
  • Not so, with My servant Moses, He is faithful in all My household; With him I speak mouth to mouth, Even openly, and not in dark sayings, And he beholds the form of the Lord. Why then were you not afraid To speak against My servant, against Moses? - Numbers 12:7-8
  • Since that time no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, - Deuteronomy 34:10

Christ is the greater prophet.  First, He speaks only what the Father has commanded Him to speak.  
  • For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. - John 12:49

Second, Christ stood face to face with God.
  • In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. - John 1:1  
In John 1:1, the preposition with (prós) denotes the image of face to face.  Literally, the Word (i.e., Jesus) was face to face with God.  

Third, Christ spoke mouth to mouth with God.
  • He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world. - John 8:26
  • For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. - John 12:49

Fourth, Christ has seen the form of the Lord.
  • No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He as explained Him - John 1:18
  • Not that anyone has seen the Father, except the One who is from God; He has seen the Father  - John 6:46​

    WHY TWO MINUTES?

    The Two-Minute Rule states “When you start a new habit, it should take less than two minutes to do.”   The idea behind the rule is to make a habit easy to start.
    One of the goals for 2-Minute Theology is to help believers develop a theological habit.
    Another goal is to provide believers with a resource they can use to 'test the spirits' to see if they are from God.
