A false witness
will not go unpunished, and he who
breathes out lies
will not escape.
Proverbs 19:5 ESV
Can we see Jesus here?
He was the true witness (& yet was punished).
Jesus was God walking amongst us, who he was, the way he lived, point us to God.
Jesus was a true witness.
When he said "It is finished", to love God & love people, that he's coming again, that love is the way, that he is the way, truth, & life, I believe him.
He breathed out the truth (& yet did not escape).
He took on himself what I deserved, and even in his last words, they breathed out love.
He is the redeemer.
The one who's love we cannot be separated from, who breathed out life and created this place, who breathed his last breath to redeem it, and one day will make all things new, all that is broken will be unbroken, all that is hurt, unhurt.
Yes Jesus can be seen here.

Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
