1 Tanīs dienās nāca Jānis Kristītājs, mācīdams Jūdejas tuksnesī

2 Un sacīdams: Gandariet par grēkiem, jo debesvalstība tuvu!

3 Šis ir tas, par ko min pravietis Isajs, sacīdams: Saucēja balss tuksnesī: sagatavojiet Kunga ceļu, dariet taisnas Viņa tekas!

4 Bet pašam Jānim bija uzvalks no kamieļu spalvām un ādas josta ap viņa gurniem; viņa ēdiens sastāvēja no siseņiem un meža medus.

5 Tad izgāja pie viņa Jeruzaleme, visa Jūdeja un viss apgabals ap Jordānu;

6 Un viņi, atzinuši savus grēkus, pieņēma no viņa kristību Jordānā.

7 Bet viņš, redzēdams daudz farizeju un saduceju nākot pie kristības, sacīja tiem: čūsku izdzimums, kas norādīja jums bēgt no nākamām dusmām?

8 Tad dariet gandarījuma cienīgus augļus!

9 Un nesakiet: Ābrahams ir mūsu tēvs, jo es jums saku, ka Dieva varā ir no šiem akmeņiem radīt Ābrahama dēlus;

10 Jo cirvis jau pielikts pie koku saknēm. Tātad katrs koks, kas nenes labus augļus, tiks nocirsts un ugunī iemests.

11 Jo es kristīju jūs ar ūdeni grēku nožēlošanai, bet kas pēc manis nāks, ir varenāks par mani. Es neesmu cienīgs Viņam kurpes nest; Viņš jūs kristīs Svētajā Garā un ar uguni.

12 Vēteklis ir Viņa rokā: un Viņš iztīrīs savu klonu, un Viņš sakrās kviešus savā šķūnī, bet pelavas sadedzinās neizdzēšamā ugunī.

13 Tad atnāca Jēzus no Galilejas uz Jordānu pie Jāņa, lai tas Viņu kristītu.

14 Bet Jānis atturēja Viņu, sacīdams: Man jāsaņem kristību no Tevis, bet Tu nāc pie manis?

15 Bet Jēzus atbildēdams sacīja viņam: Lai tas tā notiek! Tā taču mums pienākas izpildīt visu taisnību! Tad viņš to pieļāva.

16 Pēc kristības Jēzus tūliņ izkāpa no ūdens, un, lūk, debess atvērās, un Viņš redzēja Dieva Garu baloža veidā nolaižamies uz sevi.

17 Un, lūk, balss no debesīm sacīja: Šis ir mans mīļais Dēls, kurš man labpatīk.

Doctrine of the Lord # 30

30. The Lord from eternity is Jehovah. People know this from the Word. For the Lord said to the Jews:

Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am. (John 8:58)

And in another place:

Glorify Me, Father..., with the glory which I had with You before the world was. (John 17:5)

In both places the Lord from eternity is meant, and not a Son from eternity, for the Son is the Lord’s humanity, conceived of Jehovah as Father and born of the virgin Mary in time, as we showed above.

[2] That the Lord from eternity is Jehovah Himself is clear from many passages in the Word, of which we will cite these few for the present:

It will be said in that day: “...this is our God for whom we have waited to save us. ...Jehovah for whom have waited; we will rejoice and be glad in His salvation.” (Isaiah 25:9)

It is apparent from this that they waited for Jehovah God Himself.

The voice of one crying in the wilderness: “Prepare the way of Jehovah; make smooth in the desert a highway for our God.... The glory of Jehovah shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together....”

Behold, the Lord Jehovih shall come in strength.... (Isaiah 40:3, 5, 10, cf. Matthew 3:3, Mark 1:3, Luke 3:4)

Here, too, the Lord is called Jehovah, who is to come.

[3] I, Jehovah..., will give You as a covenant to the people, as a light to the gentiles.... I am Jehovah, that is My name; and My glory I will not give to another.... (Isaiah 42:6-8)

A covenant to the people and a light to the gentiles is the Lord in respect to His humanity. Because this originated from Jehovah and became one with Jehovah, He says “I am Jehovah, that is My name, and My glory I will not give to another, ” that is, to someone other than Himself. To give glory is to glorify or unite to Himself.

[4] ...the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple.... (Malachi 3:1)

The temple means the temple of His body, as in John 2:19, 21.

...the Dayspring from on high has visited us. (Luke 1:78)

The Dayspring from on high is Jehovah, or the Lord from eternity.

It is apparent from these passages that the Lord from eternity is the Divine in the Lord from which all else originates, which in the Word is Jehovah.

Moreover, from passages to be presented below, it will be apparent that, after His humanity was glorified, the Lord, and also Jehovah, means the Divine and the human together as one, and that the Son alone means His Divine humanity.
