Jesus's name is on his thigh?
-----------------------------
The bible states that Jesus said his name would be
on his thigh and it would proclaim him to be who
he said he is.
But this sounds pretty strange doesn't it? Does the
bible really say this?
Let's check and see:
Re 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on
his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS,
AND LORD OF LORDS.
Ok, it says it.
So what of it? What good is it? Is Jesus going to
run around showing people some writing on his leg?
Is he going to prove to everyone that he's got
writing under his clothes?
For the verse to have validity, it has to be able
to be tested and tested whenever anyone wants to
test it. In order to ensure it's really Jesus, it
can't be some simple tatoo or birth mark. It
has to be a name on his thigh that only Jesus could
display and it has to say KING OF KINGS and LORD
OF LORDS.
But will people be asking Jesus to show his thigh
for proof? Will there be a cutout in his clothes
that shows the name? Just when will Jesus show his
thigh and his name on his thigh?
The answer is simple: HE ALREADY HAS.
The one time in history that Jesus showed his
thigh naked was when he burned his image into
the Shroud of Turin.
So at least, Jesus's thigh is bare to look
for the writing, but where is it?
Believe it or not, it's plainly visible below:
Do you see it?
No?
It's right there, right in full view...
======================================
it's his one MIGHTY HAND on his THIGH.
======================================
(notice the other hand is NOT on his other thigh)
But how can this match Rev 19:16???
The problem is that the translation to english lost
the true meaning, and Jesus isn't normally known by
the phrase "ARM OF GOD", but Jesus is known by the
phrases "Christ of God" and "Messiah of God".
So what's this got to do with Rev 19:16?
Watch what Rev 19:16 can be read as from the New
Testament Greek available meanings given the
MIGHTY HAND on the thigh of Jesus:
Rev 19:16 And he has AT THE HAND on his form of a garment
(shroud) and on his thigh a NAME of the same
thought and feeling as if written "Christ of God"
and "Messiah of God".
That verse is saying you'll see the same name for
the "Messiah of God" if you look at Jesus's HAND
which is on his thigh, on the shroud. You'll see:
===================================
the MIGHTY HAND is an EQUIVALENT
name for the Messiah of God: Jesus.
===================================
From previous articles you may have realized that
Jesus is the ARM OF GOD. The ARM OF GOD is what God
called Jesus in Isaiah 53. That Rev 19:16 verse is
saying that the terms "Christ of God" and "Messiah
of God" are equivalent to the MIGHTY HAND Jesus
displays on the Shroud of Turin.
It's a CONFIRMATION that Jesus as described in the
Isaiah 53 verse set can absolutely be described as
the ARM OF GOD, the MIGHTY HAND of God, the Messiah
of God, and the Christ of God.
All this since God said ONLY his ARM can save and
that God said only HIS ARM saved the Hebrews using
MIGHT and POWER, but that God would later NOT use
MIGHT and POWER, but instead would use his SPIRIT.
That the ARM OF GOD would die for the sins of OTHERS
as a man that would be despised and rejected by those
he came to save. That the pleasure of God would
prosper in HIS HAND.
God's HAND or ARM >>> IS <<< the Messiah of God.
===============================================
Jesus is the ARM OF GOD, his thigh confirms it.
===============================================
God made it all, Jesus died for our sins.
