What did the Father say about Jesus?

Posted on by Dave

In the Bible we see that God the Father speaks audibly three times. On each occasion He spoke about Jesus in a loud voice from heaven.

1) “This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased”(Mark 1:11). This was at Jesus baptism when the Holy Spirit descended like a dove.

2) “This is my Son listen to Him” (Matthew 17:5). This was on the mountain where Jesus was transfigured and Moses and Elijah appeared.

3) “I have glorified your Name and will do it again” (John 12:28). This is when Jesus prayed bring glory to Your name Father.

I cannot imagine what it would be like to hear a loud voice from heaven. It would be amazing and terrifying all at once.

On each of these occasions the Father spoke about His beloved Son Jesus. This is the ultimate approval of who Jesus is and His mission to save the world.
