    John 14:9 Jesus Christ as a sign" (2 of 2)

    Jesus Christ is the Visible image of the invisible God and in the worlds framed by the word of God he is the Man component in the Father son relationship (He.11:3) So when Jesus Christ declares "Before Abraham was, I am" we have an example to what 'After our likeness" means. God the Father, the Son and the Spirit has in the Man validated triadic motives. For instance the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world (Re.13:8) is in the divine Will; he is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. He is also the Light , "And the Lamb is the light thereof"-Re.21:23) In short Principle of Similitude sets the the lamb as a motif that shall have modes all related to Trinity. The Word becoming flesh therefore gives an emblem in the Will and it signifies Redemption by his death on the cross. In eternity the true Light reveals the brightness of His glory so throne of God and of the Lamb encapsulates the blessings stipulated in the everlasting covenant.

    God's promise to Abraham consequently devolves from this covenant (Ge.12:3) so whosoever is blessed is not tied to time and place but set from everlasting to everlasting.
