The Golden Thread

​In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of His being, sustaining all things by His powerful Word. After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. Hebrews 1:1-3

Jesus, the Golden Thread who weaves and holds all things together
​Past Present and Future~~~*
How is it possible that the unfathomable Glory of God, the Radiance of One brighter than all of the Light in the universe, could be present between the leather bound covers of the Book?

He spoke through the Prophets of old…..words from the lips of holy men who had the very Breath of God, forming the truths of what was, and what was to come. He spoke at many times and in various ways. The words were murmured and spoken over the ages of time, passing on the treasures of wisdom from people to people, and lived out just as He said.
Jesus was there from the beginning, connecting the story with His Holy Spirit’s powerful influence……like a needle, piercing the fabric of time, placing the Golden Thread in places…..seemingly unlikely places…..throughout the world, stitching the Tapestry of time with His very presence.

But in these Last days, He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of All things, and through whom He made the Universe. HE MADE THE UNIVERSE….God, through Jesus, made the universe.
He not only was there from the beginning, He was the beginning. From nothing, He made something. So began the story, and the Triune God worked together, three persons, working together to form the story of life.

The Son is the exact representation of His being…..the sole expression of the Glory of God….the radiance of the Divine…and He is the perfect imprint and very image of God’s nature,
sustaining all things by His powerful Word ….upholding and maintaining….guiding and propelling…turning and twisting….weaving the universe by His Mighty Word of Power.

The Golden Thread that ties all things together
made Himself Human for a time……
in bold color for our human eyes to see,
and in stark suffering that no human heart could fathom.
Golden Thread becoming scarlet red, covered the dark places, making them bright white. He provided purification for our sins……riddance for our guilt…
Pulling stitches tightly, binding us to Himself in Holy Embrace, He wove us into His story, the Tapestry of Truth….
And when HE WAS FINISHED, He sat down at the right hand of the Divine Majesty on High where He waits until the Book becomes book no more…….
When the tangible fades to eternal sight, and we are in His very presence forever more.

His Word is Living. His Glory Shines. And although we hold it in our hands….
the Book…..
Is the Living Glory of God. Bound, cover to cover, with the Golden Thread of Jesus, who stitched the old with the new. Wholly God….
Holy God.
