Divine Revelation in Jesus

By Sel.

The revelation of the divine person and life in Jesus is the central idea of the Messianic system. This is the ultimate answer to science, to literature, to reason, to the imagination, and to the impulses in search of God. And the amazing fact to all healthy thinkers is that which astonished Jesus—that men in religion cannot lay aside speculation and controversy, aimless spiritual castle-building, and bring to Christianity the practical tests which they apply in all other practical concerns. “Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip?” The rebuke admirably fits the modern agnostic as well as the modern visionary. —Sel.
