The Unveiling Of Jesus By Dr. Pete Norris

Today on power in the word Because he's all through the Old Testament. It's Jesus everywhere It's Christ everywhere. Listen, if you read the Bible like a history book in the Old Covenant, you're not gonna see Jesus It's gonna become works to you when you see Jesus there. That's what that's what glorifies the New Testament so much It's just Jesus revealed in the old. He's hidden in the old. He's not hid from you. He's hid for you. Where's he hid at? In the last glory Hallelujah Man, I tell you what, I'm just happy man Listen, he's hidden in us. He ain't hid from us. He's hid in us Welcome to power in the word Who is Jesus? Is he just the baby in the manger or? The man on the cross or is there more to it than that? Well today dr. Nars looks at Jesus and a broader sense from the Old Testament to eternity So stay with us you'll be challenged enlightened and blessed stay tuned Revelation chapter 1 verse 1 we're gonna start there the unveiling of Jesus and the revelation of Jesus Christ Nowhere, can you find I'm not gonna talk about eschatology tonight. Okay, I'm going to talk about the revelation of Jesus Christ How many revelations already? one And this the Bible said in the very first verse this is the revelation of who Not Jesus, but Jesus Christ Which gave unto him to show unto his service things which must shortly come to pass How many of you know that John was written in 70 AD? About 72 really AD so we got to understand that John was written after Matthew Mark Luke Which is the synoptic Gospels Matthew Mark Luke is a synoptic Gospels John's a totally different book a lot of the things that's in Matthew Mark Luke is not in John matter of fact How many of you know Matt Matthew Mark Luke and John is Old Covenant? And it was not even written for the church. It was written to the Jews Then a church wants to preach it because they don't know anything else to say So if you don't know anything about the Holy Spirit, you got to preach the four Gospels Because the Holy Spirit wasn't in the four Gospels

Okay, this went good So so the bottom line is what made you the seed of Abraham? The promise of the seed of Abraham was the Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit is what make giving you has given you the seed of Abraham But the royalty and the kingship and the throne ship has come from the seed of David because he was a king of what? Israel He was also the king of Judah, which was the worshippers, but you got to understand something the throne ship come from David but the promise and the land Came from who? Abraham so you and I are covenant partners with Abraham and it can't be a note Hebrew says So now watch this so stay with me to show unto his service things which must shortly come to pass and we read that we Think about it's going to come It's already been and he sent and signified it by his angel now read this He come and he what he sent and he signified this by his angel He come and he sent and he signified this by his angel one revelation He signified it by his angel unto his servant who? John how many of you know, you're serving under the old covenant. You're a king in the new and a priest Amen, how many of you know you got an everlasting covenant if there's such a thing is a rapture and is it such a thing? As a tribulation then they don't have an eternal covenant Right, then that means the covenants not perpetual don't last forever Then what you're going to do with Hebrews 10 and 13 when it says we have an everlasting covenant So everlasting means it don't ever run out, but we got to understand what John is saying here John is revealing the revelation of Jesus Christ now watch this Revelation means unveiling of Jesus. That's all revelation means guys the unveiling of Jesus It's a Greek word that means to an apocalypse is all you've heard that It's a word that means to unveil to unclose or to remove the veiling or the lining now What did Jesus do he came to earth took on flesh? But this flesh was the thing that separated us from the veil the veil was removed when the flesh was removed You with me? So let's go to Galatians chapter 1 verse 1 verse 11 and 12, but I certify you I

Certify you brother talking to believers here. I certainly says Paul talking I certify you brother that the gospel which was preached of me is not Now if you read that the first thing you're going to think is that's talking about that's not dealing with a man Well, then if that's the case, then why does 12 say this for I neither received it of a man So, why would he repeat himself and say the same thing he just said prior that's not what he's talking about He said the things that I preached was not after a man Let's go back to 11 because I want you to get this but I certify you brethren that the gospel which was preached of me Is not after man in other words what he's trying to say what I'm preaching to you and what I'm trying to reveal to you has nothing to do with a man it has to do with the man that became the Messiah after the man little him Jesus came to earth as a man he became a big man by the anointing he became a big him are you with me now look at verse 12 for I neither received it of a man neither was I taught it but by the this same word revelation here in Galatians chapter 112 is the same word revelation in Revelation 1 in 1 same identical Greek word so you got to do something with it so the high priest was the only one that could go behind the veil but we see here Paul said I didn't receive this from a man I wasn't taught it by a man but I'm gonna talk to you about after the man left being a man and become the Messiah because I got a revelation not of the man I got a revelation of what after the man became Christ turn someone say he knew a man he knew a man 14 years ago out of the body in the body I'm not really sure 1st Corinthians 12 I believe it is he said I knew a man in the body out of body I'm not really sure but he went up to the third heaven and he came back and he had a revelation of what Jesus Christ so where did he get the revelation from the third heaven did he really go up to that third heaven to the third heaven come down to him oh come on somebody we got to preach this because we don't understand that heaven really come down to earth in this dwelling on the earth right now Paul ain't going anywhere Bible said he went up to a third heaven but he didn't know if he had a body in the body out of the body you can't go to the body in the third heaven in a body you can't get the revelation in the body that's why he said this come after man

after that man that I knew I knew that man I got guys we got to get it we got to get it do you understand what he was saying he said I don't know that guy that went up there anymore because I lost that guy on the way up there because I got a revelation of who I was and I became that man he's looking for somebody to look past this revelation of a religious theology and step into a dimension that only few exist are you listening to me so I'm not preaching to everybody I'm talking to somebody so the high priest was the only one that could go behind the veil now now go me to Hebrews chapter 10 verse 19 and 20 stay with me I'm heading somewhere having therefore brethren that's a word again bonus to enter into the holies of holies how by the blood of Jesus verse 20 by a new and a living way by a new and a living way now the priest would go behind the veil and he would present his sacrifice right and he'd present that sacrifice and then he would come out and when the smoke come out of the top they knew everything was cool and then their sacrifice had been accepted so listen listen to me very carefully because you got to get this if the priest went in and he was good then the people were okay because you were whatever your high priest was so if the priest was good no matter what you had done you were still good so you better hope you have a good priest on your side so Jesus said I'm gonna come and I don't be the great high priest and I'm gonna come a new and a living way because now when I come in I'm representing everybody so I'm gonna take the blood and put it on the mercy seat and then you can all go free cuz I'm gonna deliver everybody cuz this priest is good so when the high priest would go in you better hope that scandal is good because if he ain't good you in trouble because if the high priest is bad the whole nation's bad in other words if the high priest goes in and he stumbles everybody in that nation stumbles but thank God our high priest who's been touched with our infirmities went in behind there and he said I am the high priest for everybody you got to understand he was the king of a priest and a prophet nobody had ever been that except David but he become the king the priest and the prophet and now he made us the king and a priest and a prophet

Bible said in Revelation 1 and 6 we're kings and priests and in Revelation 5 and 10 says we're kings and priests and we're gonna reign way on the earth not when we get to heaven baby why because he brought heaven down here in heaven heaven and earth's gonna pass away the one you knew before under the old covenant but one of the new covenant is a new heaven and a new earth coming down and that's the revelation that we're trying to preach we're trying to get this on where we already are see heavenly heaven ain't coming down it's already come guys it's already it's already here cuz Jesus brought it down look what he said by a new and living way which he hath past tense consecrated for us consecrate means to set us apart for this through what that is to say what his flesh so his flesh removed the veil so that we're no longer bound by our flesh our flesh is not who we are God listen this is why we struggle with Jesus because listen if you think Jesus done them great mirrors because he was the Son of God you've missed the point he done the great mirrors because he was anointed from by God but if you go look there was One scripture says in the book of John that he couldn't do no great miracles because he couldn't do them because they wouldn't receive them. See now, watch this. The Bible said if you don't believe that he came in the flesh, then you're Antichrist. And John said the Antichrist has been on the earth for many years and it's already here. Where do we get one person from? And if one person is going to come and rule the whole earth, then the perpetual covenant that he gives us in Hebrews 10, verse 13, that's an everlasting covenant, didn't work. See, but the only thing that people can get that tribulation, the seven-day process from is Daniel 9, verse 24 through 27. And when I tear that up with the word covenant, you don't have anything to stand on anymore. See, if the enemy can get you to think things are going to come, then you're never going to receive it when they're here right now. So the enemy wants to tell you you're futuristic and future tense all the time when you're already in it. And the church has not, they've been having so much religion. As a matter of fact, this thing with eschatology and theology and tribulation didn't even start until the 1700s. It was in the 1500s over in Europe, but it came here in the 1700s. Nobody preached it before that. But let's go on, because I told you I ain't preaching eschatology, I'm preaching Jesus. So go to 2 Corinthians chapter 3, verse 13. Watch this.

And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face, that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look at the end of that which was what? Verse 14. But their minds were blinded until the day remained as the same veil, untaken away in the reading of the Old Testament. Now watch this, guys. Moses went up on top of the mountain, he got the Ten Commandments. He come down, they're worshiping bulls and goats and calves and making gold and idols. And he threw the things down, had a carnality fit like got him in trouble the 40 years prior when he had to go to the wilderness for 40 years. Moses never could get past that fit-throwing contest. But you can't blame him because he didn't have the Spirit of God resting in him. You throw fits and you still got him. And he's living in you. So don't knock Moses. Don't shout me down because I'm preaching real good. And so Moses goes back up, stays 40 more days up there. If you go study the Scripture, Moses fasted and didn't eat for 40 days. The first time, come down, went right back up the same day for 40 more days. But he came down the first time and put a veil over his face because the glory of God was on him. It was not on him because he was going to light them up when they saw him. He didn't want the veil to be removed because the glory that was on him was going to vanish away. And if it vanished away, everybody was going to see that Moses wasn't all that. And they were going to see that he was flesh. But watch this. But their minds were blinded for until the day remained of the same veil untaken away in the reading of the Old Testament. Which veil is done away within? What's the veil? What's the veil? The flesh. The flesh is not who you are. That's the veil that was removed. And so when the Old Testament is read today through not seeing Christ,

you're pulling the veil back up. That's why people read the Old Testament. They don't even think Christ is in it. Christ has been there the whole time. I'm going to show it to you today. Say show it to us. Let's go to verse 15. I'm going to. You can bet your bottom dollar I am. But until this day when Moses is read, the veil is upon their hearts. When Moses is read. How many of you know that Moses only wrote the first five books of the Bible? Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. So the only thing they had to read was the first five books because the New Testament hadn't been written yet. Well, I need to correct that. It had been written. It just wasn't in print. Because Jesus was the New Testament. So he was walking around. The New Testament was walking around in the Old, but people couldn't see it. That's why I remember the day he was walking, and the two guys met him on the road, and he began to tell them. He began to talk about himself and said, Moses was just revealing me, but you couldn't see me. And all of a sudden they sat down and had communion, and their eyes were open. They saw the truth and knew it was Jesus, and he vanished out of the way. Why? Once you see him, you no longer can have him. Gosh, you've got to get with me.

Once you can see him, you can't look at him anymore. Because if you see him in the flesh, what you are wanting to see, you're taking you back to the old covenant. So he doesn't show himself in the flesh to you. He only shows himself in the spirit to you because he can only deal with your spirit. Now watch this. Watch this. Watch this. God spoke to me last night, 20 minutes after 2 this morning. Look at this. Look at this. The spirit of Christ inside only reveals himself. It only reveals himself. See, we're looking at churchism. But the Holy Spirit inside of you can only reveal himself. That's why I told you that. I didn't really understand it, but God's only looking for God. That's why he sent Jesus to reveal God. So once God's revealed, he's in Jesus, and he said there in John 17, we're one. Now he said, I want this one. to be one as we're one. How many of you know there's no difference between me and you and the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? Colossians 2 and 9 said we're the God head and bodily. Colossians 2 and 10 says we're complete in Him. We're absolutely consumed with Him, man. We're some kind of something. Turn to somebody and say, we're some kind of something. Some kind of something. Listen, we're just waiting. God's just waiting for something to happen. He's waiting for you to realize who you are and just jump into some stuff. Don't be afraid. Walk on the water, man. He just wants you to walk on it. But here's a nugget right here, and you need to get a hold of it. When I saw this, I tell you, it lit me up. It don't take much, though, you know.

The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him. Gave unto who? John. This is talking about John. This is John who wrote this. To show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass. And he sent and signified. Now, underline the word signified. The word signified means a sign, a symbol, or a signature. How many of you know early Old Covenant? The king would take a symbol, and he would take a document, and he would put his stamp on it, and that was a document. That's why he gave his son, the prodigal son that come back in John, the prodigal son. Remember the prodigal son? The prodigal son come back, and he said, get a ring and put it on his finger. What did that do? Represent the authority that he was sonship again. So you got the authority, so you can use that authority. But he said, I'm going to sign a document to fulfill this purpose. The word signified means a sign, a symbol, or a signature. I said, Lord, you're going to have to give me something here. Because I don't really understand that. Do you understand that? So he began to give me something. Go to Revelation 1 and 8. Now, this is the same Revelation as we just read, 1 and 1, but look at 8. I am. Now, you remember what he told Moses? He said, Moses, you go tell them to let the people go. Moses said, no, I don't think I am. He said, who did I tell them sent me? He said, tell them that I am sent you. Tell them that I am sent you. Tell them that I am sent you. Turn to someone and say, the I am sent me. When the enemy wants to talk to you next time, tell them that I am sent you. Now, watch this. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. Now, how many of you know that all four of those words are in capital? They were translated that in the original Greek, and they've been translated that in the translation for a purpose. Says the Lord, who is, who was, and who is to come, the Almighty. Now, watch this.

How many of you know that this scripture is not in the Bible? God is the same yesterday, and today, and forever. It's not in there. People have preached that for years. God's the same yesterday, and today, and forever. No, he's not. I can show you he was different in the old covenant than he is in the new covenant. But the Bible said Jesus is the same yesterday, and today, and forever. So, we've got to understand, it's in Hebrews, by the way, that Jesus is the same yesterday, and today, and forever. But God's not the same yesterday, and today, and forever. Well, wait a minute, pastor. God and Jesus are the same. No, they're not. They're three different intimates in one being. Are you with me? God spoke everything. Jesus released everything. And the Holy Spirit manifested everything. So, they're three in one. Now, watch this. Jesus left the earth so he could put his spirit that revealed himself to you. The only way you can understand him and grab hold of him is to operate in the spirit. He said, the spirit bear witness with my spirit. Let me know that I'm a son of God. You could never doubt you're the son of God if you're born again because your spirit signify with his spirit that you're born again. So, they signify. See, we don't know anything about the spirit. Or we think we do.

Ninety percent of what people hear, they think it's God. It is. They're just afraid because they're not really sure. If Anita speaks to me or Miss Barbara speaks to me, I'm going to know Anita's voice. Why? Because I've been a renter so much. If you spend time with God, you're going to know his voice. And he said, you'll not follow the voice of a stranger because you'll know my voice. Now, watch this. I want to go somewhere because my time is running out. Now, look at how Jesus starts each verse. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I am the way he introduces himself to Moses. I am. Tell him that I am, sent you. Now, go to Revelation 111, saying, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last. And what you see, write it, pen a book and send it to the seven churches. Now, in the book of Revelation, who is he talking to? Okay. What was he telling them? I'm the Alpha, I'm the Omega, I'm the beginning and the end. How many of you know in the actual Hebrew text, a leaf and taff under the old covenant is the first letter in the alphabet and taff is the last letter in the alphabet. So he said, I'm the beginning and the end. In other words, what he was saying, guys, is all the letters in between, you can't speak a word that I ain't. You got to understand, he's the beginning and the end, but he ain't eternal, so there ain't no end in eternity. If he's the beginning and the end and he's eternal, they don't line up. So what he was telling them is, I've been here since the beginning, I'll be here when the ending ends because there ain't no end. because I'm not in time I'm stepped out of time there's no time now I only operated in time when I was on the earth but now that I've exited the earth

there's no time in me so God ain't moving on your time that's why he don't do things fast as you'd like him to because he's not moved by your time he has no time because he is time everything you want him to do he's already done you just ain't manifesting seen it yet it's already happened you just ain't seen it come on somebody get with me in this building because Jesus is the good is the same yesterday he's done everything he's not gonna do anything he's done everything what are you waiting him to do you waiting for him to show up will you speak it into existence amen guys you didn't get an accident and just waiting to happen listen I've been talking before I got here I just got to this flesh and that's when I begin to stutter but after a while when I got full of the spirit I lost the stutter why because God had a purpose I've been talking for a long time I've just got into your existence were you hearing me not right now I'm still listen you're not the only people hearing me there's people here me don't even know they're hearing me just because we're supernatural beings we're just existing in a physical earth but we manifest it in the supernatural well because we exist way past that what we can see if this is what you see is only temporary but what's what what you can't see is eternal man and if God's eternal then how can he be a beginning and he in he never introduced himself as the alpha and Omega in any other than 65 books he didn't introduce in John 8 he introduced himself as I'm as the I am this is the second time in the Revelation 1 he introduced himself that way he's trying to get a point across now go to Revelation 1 17 and when I saw him I fell at his feet is dead but he laid his right hand on me and saying it to me do not be afraid I am the I'm the first and the last bro I'm the first and why would you tell him in the first and the last what good if you scared what's well I'm the first and the last how's that gonna help you he understood what it meant because he understood the Jewish language what he was saying is I've got my signature on you buddy the leaf and the taff I got you I've signed your future I've got your destiny that's why when they board him upside down and hung him upside down he could still

endure because he understood that now he had become the first and the last this is the third time he introduced himself that way go to Isaiah 44 verse 6 stay with me I'm hitting somewhere thus saith the Lord the King of Israel his Redeemer the Lord of hosts I am the first and I am the last besides me there is no God I'm the Redeemer the Lord of hosts I'm the first I'm the last and beside me no God look at 41 and 4 oh my goodness it's a shaky right here now this will get this will get you insides happy who has performed and done it calling the generations from the beginning I the Lord and he and the first and with the last I am he read it read it read it read it read it look what he said who has performed and done it calling the generations from the beginning he called the generations before it ever got started ah the Lord and the first and I'm the last that's not capital he was prophesying this was gonna happen and he said and with the last I'm he who's the last us he said so I'm he I'm he I'm he capital I'm it and because you're the last you're it this is done guys it's an everlasting covenant that's a way for the enemy to cause fear into people's lives and am I ready for the calling away of the church let me tell you something I'm not calling away I'm not he's not gonna call me away he's gonna come and see me because he's living in me he's living in me he's not gonna send me off into the hills if you read anything about Matthew 23 and Matthew 24 he called the desolation desolation of Jerusalem he said in this gonna happen in in in this generation in this generation in this generation well unless the generation is two thousand and two hundred years then it's already happened so John was a Jew he only read the Torah now go to go to Genesis 37 90 10 I got to get this in guys I got to get this in and and he dreamed a dream and he told it to his brothers and he said look I have dreamed another dream and this time the moon the Sun Sun the moon and the eleven stars bowed down to me see that let's go to verse 10 and he told it to his fatherness and his brothers and his father rebuked him and said to him what is this dream that you have dreamed shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come and bow down on the earth before you so here we he

has a dream and he said you know what in this dream you're gonna bow down to me how many of you believe that that that dream they're coming to bow down right and and he spoke that dream a little too early because the Sun and the moon represented what his father and his mother and then what did eleven that represent the eleven brothers right how many how many disciples were they at the end? What was he really seeing? It's all a parallel, man. All the Old Testament is is the New Testament unrevealed. It's a shadow and we're the substance. Everything is Jesus. Everything is Jesus. Everything is Jesus. When you don't see Jesus in the Old Covenant, you're putting the veil back up. It ain't just about a bunch of laws and performance basis. It's about putting the veil back up when you don't see Jesus in the beginning, Christ in the Old Covenant. Who you think wrestled with Jacob? And the Bible said he wrestled with him all night. And what did Jacob tell him? He said, you ain't leaving until you bless me. And he walked with a limp for the rest of his life, but he got a new name. What was his name? Israel. So you got a new name to it because you wrestled with him all night. You don't really understand that, but you wrestled with him all night and you got a new name. That's why the Bible says you're gonna be known in heaven as you're known on earth. Why? Because you're in heaven now and he knows you as Christ. It's not gonna be Pete. He said, well Pete, you're down in here on the left on there at 212 Heavenly Boulevard or in a cabin in the very back. Now we're gonna be all one. He ain't gonna be able to tell me because the Bible says in Colossians chapter 3 verse 3 that in him I live and move, but it also says this. It goes a little deeper. Here's what it says, guys. You need to get a hold of this. My life has been hidden with Christ in God. So he's gonna take me out during the tribulation and I ain't gonna be in him no more. Guys, it doesn't make any sense. And I'm not trying to preach a tribulation. I'm not trying to convince you of anything. What I'm trying to get you is to think twice and cast down a little bit of that religion. Let's go to Colossians 1, 26 and 27 and I'm through. I promise you. The mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from generations but now has been revealed in his saints. Now watch this. The mystery

which has been hidden from the ages and from generations. What was hidden? Jesus. And all of a sudden he comes to earth and reveals himself. And now he's revealed himself where? In his what? Saints. Look at 27. Watch this. This is glorious. If this don't make you happy, man, something's wrong with you. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of the mystery among the Gentiles which is Christ in you the hope of glory. So watch Jesus and throughout all the New Testament. I can show you some more of them in my leaf and shafts in the Old Testament if you want some. Because he's all through the Old Testament. It's Jesus everywhere. It's Christ everywhere. Listen, if you read the Bible like a history book in the Old Covenant, you're not gonna see Jesus. It's gonna become works to you. When you see Jesus there, that's what glorifies the New Testament so much. It's just Jesus revealed in the old. He's hidden in the old. He's not hid from you. He's hid for you. Where's he hid at? In us. Glory. Thank you for joining us today at Power in the Word.
