Sermon Summary
G.W. North emphasizes the profound communion that Jesus had with the Father, highlighting that this divine fellowship was exclusive to the Godhead—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He explains that while celestial beings like cherubim and seraphim worshipped God, they were not part of this intimate communion. Jesus, however, maintained this connection even while on earth, embodying the fullness of the Godhead. The sermon reveals God's desire for humanity to join this communion, which led to Jesus being commissioned to create a pathway for others to enter into this sacred fellowship. North ultimately underscores the significance of Jesus' mission to fulfill God's longing for many sons to share in this divine communion.
That We May Enter In
Jesus had ever lived in communion with His Father. Nothing had ever broken their communion, it was The Communion — The Fellowship. No-one else was in it but God — Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Cherubim and Seraphim adored and worshipped and served the glorious and mighty three who enjoyed but one Life and Being. With admiring eyes and wondering hearts they hovered around and waited upon their God and King to do His will, yet they were not in The Communion they beheld. But the man Jesus was ever in that holy Communion. On coming to earth He laid aside much, but not that; all the fullness of the Godhead dwelt in Him bodily. Being made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, He lived on earth as an only-begotten with a father. He only came out from God because Father longed to have many other sons like Jesus with Him in that same Communion. But how? How were they to accomplish it? Could it really be done, and if so when and where? At which point could it be arranged for men to enter into the Communion of the Holy Three? God thought out a plan, charged Jesus with it and commissioned Him to create this opening for men. Therefore, sanctified and sent into the world, His was the duty both to be, and to make the way whereby His Father's and His own wishes should be fulfilled.
