God speaks today Tuesday | March 25, 2025

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. (Genesis 1:26)
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: (Colossians 1:15)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Jesus is the visible image of the invisible God - therefore: he who has seen the Son has seen the Father

The Epistle to the Colossians focuses on the deity of Jesus Christ, His Lordship, His Power, and His equality with the Father. The apostle Paul wrote this letter to counteract the Colossian heresy that diminished the stature of Jesus Christ and included other gods and rituals. Paul shows the glory of Jesus and His great power and lordship, emphasizing that He is the image of the invisible God and the firstborn of all creation. Jesus is the exact projection of the God who cannot be seen, and whoever has seen Jesus has seen the Father. This encourages us to have faith in Him and believe in Him for eternal salvation.
