JN 16:29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

JN 16:30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

JN 16:31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

JN 16:32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

JN 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
_______

What did YH’SHWH overcome?

(This is what I believe.)

YH’SHWH is GOD.

As GOD, here on earth, HE is a SINLESS human, but not the perfect SACRIFICE.

As GOD, HE denied HIMSELF (HIS ALMIGHTY POWER) and
As a human submitted to HIS SPIRIT making HIM a SINLESS HUMAN.

YH’SHWH never stopped BEING GOD, HE stopped HIMSELF from “fruiting” GOD.
HE became a human submitted to HIS SPIRIT
and did all things, here on earth, as a human submitted to HIS SPIRIT.

Even though, as GOD, HE is SINLESS,
In denying HIMSELF (HIS POWER) and submitting to HIS SPIRIT, HE became a SINLESS HUMAN.

In this way, HE overcame this world and became

The PERFECT SACRIFICE.

PHIL 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross
_______

YH’SHWH did all this for HIS PEOPLE, HIS BODY, HIS BRIDE,

HIS ISRAEL.

His Agony and Our Access


Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples . . . . ’Stay here and watch with Me’
—Matthew 26:36, 38


We can never fully comprehend Christ’s agony in the Garden of Gethsemane, but at least we don’t have to misunderstand it. It is the agony of God and man in one Person, coming face to face with sin. We cannot learn about Gethsemane through personal experience. Gethsemane and Calvary represent something totally unique—they are the gateway into life for us.

It was not death on the cross that Jesus agonized over in Gethsemane. In fact, He stated very emphatically that He came with the purpose of dying. His concern here was that He might not get through this struggle as the Son of Man. He was confident of getting through it as the Son of God—Satan could not touch Him there. But Satan’s assault was that our Lord would come through for us on His own solely as the Son of Man.

If Jesus had done that, He could not have been our Savior (see Hebrews 9:11-15 ). Read the record of His agony in Gethsemane in light of His earlier wilderness temptation—". . . the devil . . . departed from Him until an opportune time" ( Luke 4:13 ). In Gethsemane, Satan came back and was overthrown again. Satan’s final assault against our Lord as the Son of Man was in Gethsemane.

The agony in Gethsemane was the agony of the Son of God in fulfilling His destiny as the Savior of the world. The veil is pulled back here to reveal all that it cost Him to make it possible for us to become sons of God. His agony was the basis for the simplicity of our salvation.

The Cross of Christ was a triumph for the Son of Man. It was not only a sign that our Lord had triumphed, but that He had triumphed to save the human race. Because of what the Son of Man went through, every human being has been provided with a way of access into the very presence of God.
