Ever hear someone say, “That boy is the spitting image of his father?” That was certainly true of Jesus’ relationship with His Father. And even more, Jesus, according to His own words was more than a spitting image; He and His Father were one and the same.
So when anyone tells you that Jesus was merely a good man or just a prophet and a great teacher, then share with them what Jesus said to Philip in John 14:9.
“Jesus told him, ‘Philip, I’ve been with you for a spell now. How is it ya don’t recognize Me? Anyone who has laid eyes on Me has for sure seen the Father; so how can ya say, ‘show us the Father'”? (The Gospel of John Cowboy Style)
