Jesus: The Portrait of God
Commentators overwhelmingly agree that Jesus is the ultimate revelation of God the Father. While creation offers glimpses, Jesus is what one scholar calls a 'full-length portrait' of God's character, will, and nature. To truly know Jesus through his life, teachings, and works is to know the Father. He isn't just a guide to God; He is God made visible to humanity.
