Youth Time Alone with God

Jesus Christ revealed in Himself the will of God. There was nothing in His outward appearance to suggest anything special. It was not His size, nor His clothing, nor the way in which He walked. It was His manner of life, and the things He did which revealed, through Him, God’s will for men. He fulfilled the law of God in all of its aspects, but this is not the essential significance of His life and work.

It was rather this, that He did what He did because God was in Him. It was not simply Jesus of Nazareth reading the laws of God as found in the Old Testament, then mustering His natural forces together and striving to follow out what He had read. He had in Himself the very life of God, and He was God. Thus his righteousness, His was of living, was the way of God. In Himself, Jesus demonstrated the power and strength of God, what life would be like when it is lived with God, and what work would be like when one works with God.

John 5: 17-31 explains this. “I and my Father are one,” Jesus said.
