The Lord Jesus has given us the knowledge of God His Father as He knew Him, generally in the days of His flesh, fully in His resurrection and ascension, that we might know Him as His Father and our Father, His God and our God, in the new creation consequent on His atoning death.
Is anything so wonderful, gracious and practical as the truth now made fully known? It could not be till He came who knew it Himself perfectly and died and rose and ascended that we might be brought, as far as is possible, into His relationships, and have the Holy Spirit given to know it in this day ( John 14:2020At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. (John 14:20)).
Such is Christian knowledge of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. As the Father is revealed, so the Son reveals, and this only in its living reality by the Holy Spirit. It is the full revelation of God, confessed in our baptism, and needed, as it ought to be enjoyed, every step of the way till our pilgrimage closes in His coming to take us on high, that where He is, we also may be.
