Christ Revealed to You

Christ is revealed to you in the Bible. All Scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16). He reveals Christ to you in Messianic prophecies and promises of the Old Testament, as well as the fulfillment and assurance of those promises in the New Testament. 

Christ is revealed to you in the Old Testament, with foreknowledge and vision given to the prophets. The Holy Spirit reveals Christ in prophecy. Today, the same Holy Spirit reveals Christ to you. Scripture is the revelation of the Holy Spirit, given through the prophets and apostles (Ephesians 2:20). Christ is the Revelation (Revelation 1:1).

Christ is revealed to you in the Gospel (1 Thessalonians 1:5). He is revealed as your salvation, by the Spirit of grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9, 18). The Lord Jesus saves to the uttermost all who come to him by faith. Through the Holy Spirit, Christ saves and keeps you (John 3:8, 16). What he begins in you, he is more than able to complete (Philippians 1:6).

Christ is revealed to you by the Holy Spirit. He opens your eyes of understanding to see the light of Christ (John 1:9). Without the Holy Spirit, the purpose and point of God's truth is not seen (John 16:13). The hymn Amazing Grace includes these words, "I once was blind, but now I see." That's spiritual blindness, but the Holy Spirit opens your eyes of understanding to see the truth of Jesus Christ our Lord.
