Jesus&#8217; question in Luke 2:49, &quot;Did you not know that I must be about My Father&#8217;s business?&quot; indicates that, at the early age of 12, Jesus knew the parameters of His mission. He realized from His earliest memory as a human being that He was more than a man and had existed with His Father from eternity. John 1:1-3 reveals Jesus Christ&#8217;s pedigree as the Logos (or Spokesman), whose function was to declare or reveal the Father. God the Father was intimately involved in choosing His physical parents; yet, He left nothing to chance in His education, which consisted of continuous communication between Him and His Son. In John 14:10-11, Jesus proclaimed, &quot;I do not speak on My Own authority but the Father in Me,&quot; implying that He and the Father had always been in each other&#8217;s presence. The Father was in Him throughout His life, a relationship They seek to replicate in all of God&#8217;s Children. When Christ cried out in agony the second the Father rejected Him because of our sins, He expressed the horror of losing His life-long link with His Father. Our faith rests on the indwelling of the Father and the Son. This special &quot;bosom buddy&quot; relationship Jesus, by teaching us about His Father, fervently desires as the ultimate destiny of God&#8217;s Called-ones. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sermon: Christ&#8217;s Revelation of the Father Declaring the Existence and Character of God #1448 Richard T.
