Each year at Christmas time, the “baby Jesus” is the
subject of discussion and attention. Indeed, all year long the Babe in its
mother’s arms and the dying Sufferer on the cross are kept constantly before
the masses, while our Lord’s resurrection, ascension and present glory in
heaven are given but scant attention. This is because so few have taken note of
the great message of the Apostle Paul about the glorified Lord in heaven. In II
Corinthians 5:16, the Apostle wrote:
“…yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet
now henceforth know we Him no more.”
It is sad that so many still know only “Christ after the
flesh.” They love to discuss the “gospel stories” about the “Man of Galilee,”
but find themselves strangers in the great Epistles of St. Paul.
Paul was the apostle for this present “dispensation of the
grace of God.” It is he who presents Christ in His present glory as the great Dispenser
of redeeming grace, through the merits He won at Calvary. In Ephesians 1:15-23
we have recorded for us the Apostle’s prayer that we might be given “the spirit
of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Christ” that we might come to
experience…
“What is the exceeding greatness of [God's] power to
us-ward who believe, according to the working of His mighty power,
“Which He wrought in Christ when He raised Him from the
dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places.
“Far above all principality, and power, and might, and
dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world [age], but also
in that which is to come” (Ephesians 1:19-21).
Let us thank God that the baby Jesus died for our sins and
became the risen, living Savior at God’s right hand, abundantly “able also to
save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him” (Hebrews 7:25).
