The Bible is the story of God unfolding Himself from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts -- through the Spoken Word -- to the manifestation of those eternal thoughts in the glorified flesh of His Family. Jesus Christ is the beginning of the creation of God -- less than 2,000 years ago; and the New Testament saints are the continuation of the same Creation. This is the true revelation and purpose of God. Through election, the Creator is taking form, by creating Himself a part of His creation.
