Son Spoke Personally to Us


Numbers 12:6-8  
Then He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the Lord, make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak to him in a dream.  7 Not so with My servant Moses; He is faithful in all My house.  8 I speak with him face to face, Even plainly, and not in dark sayings; And he sees the form of the Lord…"

-- Hebrews 1:1-2   1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

-- 2 Corinthians 3:15-16.  But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. 16 Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

Prophets used to be necessary to see visions and dreams in order to know what God said and tell His people; now we who know Christ have Him by God's Spirit inside us to unveil the truth of His word to us.   There is no need for new revelation - God has spoken it and now reveals that to us.  So we can come before His face to the throne based on grace to find direction, help, and understanding.
