-The Standpoint of the Entire Bible Is Christological, Christoregulated and Christocentric

1-3. The Standpoint of the Entire Bible Is Christological, Christoregulated and Christocentric.

1-3:1. The Standpoint of the entire Bible is Christological because the total communication/revelation/ message of the whole Bible is ACCORDING TO CHRIST ( “KATA KRISTON” ) and not according to philosophy and empty deceit neither according to tradition or psycho- social- cultural transmission of humankind to humankind nor according to the elements of the world ( Colossians 2:8 ).

1-3:2. The Standpoint of the entire Bible is Christoregulated because the total communication/revelation/message of the whole Bible is all of grace, and, grace is given to everyone according to the measure/regulation/parameter of the gift of ( from, on, in, through, with, to and for ) Christ ( Ephesians 4:7 ). Everything or all of everyone in the cosmic ( Colossians 1:16; Hebrews 1:2-3; Acts 17:25-28; Ecclesiastes 3:1-11 ), spiritual ( Ephesians 1:3-23; Colossians Chapters 1, 2, 3 ) and moral ( I Corinthians Chapter 13; John 14:21 ) realms and/or spheres and/or systems is truthfully and graciously but conditionally and righteously realized, ordered and appropriated only unidirectionally from, on, in, through, with, to and for the Lord Jesus Christ ( Revelation 1:8, 17, 18; 13:14; 21:1-8; Colossians 1:16; John 14:6; I Timothy 2:5-6; Ephesians 4:7; Acts 17:25-28; John 1:3 ). This and nothing but this is the way of the RIGHTEOUS. To proceed otherwise is to be in the way of the wicked ( Psalms 1:1-6; 119 ).

1-3:3. The Standpoint of the entire Bible is Christocentric or Christcentered or focused on or aimed at the Lord Jesus Christ not only because the Holy Scriptures/Writings testify of ( from, on, in, through, with, to and for ) Him ( John 5:39-40 ) but also because all of His own are directed to look unto Jesus, the AUTHOR and PERFECTER of their faith ( Hebrews 12:2 ) and the Scriptures make a person wise unto SALVATION through faith IN Christ Jesus ( II Timothy 3:15 ). The Written Word of God also teaches that since ONE ( the Manhood of God the Son incarnate ), died for all, therefore, all died ( in, upon, from, through and with the death of the Manhood of God the Son incarnate ), in order that those who live should no longer live for themselves but only for the Lord Jesus Christ ( II Corinthians 5:9-16 ). Although the Perfect Manhood of God the Son incarnate sacrificially suffered death once and for all yet He has made it alive, raised it up, made it deathless and glorified but permanently, completely and inseparably united to His Godhood so that in, through, with, to and for His Perfect Manhood, the Almighty Lord God the Son, Christ Jesus, can rightfully HEAD UP, OWN, OCCUPY- POSSESS, RULE, EMBODY, REPLACE, REPRESENT, FULFILL and COMPLETE FOREVER ( Hebrews 7:24-25; 9:24; II Corinthians 5:13-16; Colossians 2:6-11 ) all of those who have voluntarily submitted, committed, subjected, conformed and devoted their all to Him ( Hebrews 12:2; Ephesians 4:7-16 ). For, according to the TRINITARIAN ALL FOR JESUS ETERNAL COVENANT, God the Father has already given ALL of His all to God the Son, Christ Jesus, and the aforementioned God the Son is always functioning as ALL in all while God the Holy Spirit is directing, addressing and devoting all of all to the same God the Son ( John 16:7-15 ). Thus, God the Father is calling ( I Corinthians 1:9 ), drawing ( John 6:37-46 ) and permanently addressing ( Colossians 1:16-19; John 17:10-24 ) all of all to Jesus. So every created person must press on toward the AIM/GOAL/OBJECTIVE upon the prize of the upward call of God IN Christ Jesus ( Philippians 3:14 ).
