Considering that the world itself
could ‘not contain the books that would be written’ about all that Jesus did
(John 21:25), we confidently testify that the descriptions and names of Christ
above barely scratch the surface. Indeed, as John tells us, Christ ‘has a name
written that no one knows but himself’ (Rev. 19:12). There is much about Christ
that we will learn in the future. (Mark Jones, Knowing Christ [Edinburgh:
The Banner of Truth Trust, 2015], 2)
Revelation from God has not ceased
with the sixty-six books. It has ceased for this life and this side of glory,
but in the life to come in heaven, ‘God will continue to speak to his saints,
and he will do so through Jesus Christ, who, as the God-man, will for ever
reveal God’s will to the Church. (Ibid., 206)
As humans who cannot have infinite
knowledge, we will nevertheless receive continual fresh supplies of knowledge
through Christ. Our happiness can only increase as we come to know more and
more of our God and his wondrous works (Psa. 40:5). . . . As he communicates to
us the knowledge, love, wisdom, and goodness of God, we will respond with
worship. The glorified God-man will be the eternal object of our unblemished
worship. (Ibid., 206-7)
