Unveiling the Person of the Son of God

and His High Priestly Ministry

Pastor Tosin Gabriel

1. The High Priest has come to feast us and He cannot feast us and we remain the same. God had something He wanted to say but there was no one ready to receive it because they were not built up to receive it. Then God raised one Man and through Him, God could say everything He wanted to say (Heb. 1:2).

2. There is something Jesus is - He is the brightness of God’s glory. The face is glory; God said that no man could see His face and live but there is a Man who saw God and lived, and then became the brightness of God’s glory and the express image of His person.

3. What we usually call the work of God - earthly attainments such as cars is not what it really is, Jesus is the work of God (John 6:28-29). The work of God is a Person and God has finished His work - the Son is far better than the fathers and the prophets. He is the brightness of God’s glory, He is better than Moses. The Son is not just an image, He is the express image of God’s person.

4. Seeing Jesus is not seeing His physique but rather seeing the revelation of His Person. We can make a mistake by looking for a time when we see God. God has already made a replicate of Himself, we need to acquire sight to know who He is.

5. There is a blessing that will rest upon this conference and it is the blessing of the Father. The blessing of the Father is in knowing the Son; it is the revelation of His Son. Jesus is the Person we should be discovering. We should enter the season of discovering the Son of God: knowing the Son of God, and seeing the Son of God.

6. The Son of God is not only better than the fathers and prophets but also so much better than angels. Jesus is better than Abraham, Isaac, and Adam, He is also better than Enoch (these are the fathers). Jesus was counted more worthy than Moses because Moses did not see God. It is only the begotten Son that has seen God  (John 1:18). Any man who sees God is better than every other man.

7. Jesus did not come to Earth as God, He came as a Man (John 1:14). The Word did not come as God, He came as flesh. The Man Jesus is better than Heaven and Earth, therefore since we are men we are to be better than Heavens and Earth. Anything Satan can give is small; he is greater than those things and that is why he can give them but we should be greater than Satan.

8. To believe in the Son is to receive His ministry. If we do not receive His ministry then we have not yet believed in Him and we can still perish. Heaven and Earth will perish but if we believe in the Son of God, we will not perish.

9. The mindset that we cannot overcome sin on Earth is wrong because sin did not start from Earth, it started from Heaven. The first person to sin is Lucifer (Isa. 14:12).  We need the High Priest to purge sin from our lives; we can live on this Earth and be without sin. It takes some things to knock out sin from us. The reason you struggle against sin is because you lack understanding. It takes understanding to knock out sin.

10. We cannot obey somebody we are not hearing; we have to hear Him, believe Him and then start obeying. There is nothing like being eternally saved; we have gotten born again, but we need obedience to be eternally saved.

11. Dullness of hearing is Satan’s job, because as long as we are dull, we are still captives of Satan. Sin is attractive and tells our souls not to hear what is being preached but our deliverance lies in hearing.

12. There is the Majesty on High and that is His Father. The Son is set on the right hand of the throne of the Father on High. The Father is a high Person; God is a high Person. It is a humiliation for God to come to Heaven; in the beginning God created Heavens and the Earth but before He created Heaven and Earth, where was He? This means that He is higher than the Heavens and Earth (Ps. 113:4-6).

13. God raised a Man and made Him better than everything; anyone who is better than angels, Heavens and Earth is one who can actually talk with God.

14. Jesus’ second appearing is to give salvation. We were saved at new birth but we are not fully saved. The day we gave our life to Jesus, our souls were not saved. Our souls being saved is attached to Jesus' second appearing (Heb. 9:28).

15. The salvation of our souls is attached to the end of our faith, not the beginning of our faith. The day we got born again, it was our spirit that got saved and not our souls. Man is a spirit, has a soul and lives in  a body (1 Thess. 5:23).

16. It is not every christian that has come to Mount Zion. To come to Mount Zion we must have obeyed the first Gospel which is the Gospel of Christ. The Gospel will bring us to a place where the ministration of salvation can get to us. The Gospel of Christ will change our stature and our nature from a carnal soul to a spiritual soul because it is a spiritual soul that the Son can minister to.

17. A spiritual man will think spiritual things, do spiritual things and pray spiritual things. What we pray about will make us know whether we are spiritual or not. Our prayer is what Heaven uses to know whether we are carnal or not.

18. We cannot be in the Holy place without being spiritual. We are built to the Holy place by the Gospel. If we engage in a  fight and we feel normal afterwards, then it means that we have not yet come to the place of being spiritual. Losing our peace when we fight or argue means that we are living against our building. It is for this purpose that the Son has come to save our souls.

19. Majestic things are things of salvation because the Majesty Himself is salvation. There is nothing majestic without salvation.

20. The saving of our souls means that we know the Living and the True God; to know the Living God alone is not salvation, we must know Him fully. The beginning of the ministry of the Son of God is to shine the light of the living God.

21. The man God lost in the Garden was a living soul (Gen. 2:7). Therefore, a spiritual man is not yet saved, spiritual is not yet living;  if we are spiritual then God has not yet found us.

22. We are not yet living souls; that we are breathing does not mean that we are living souls. The test case for living is that a living person must not have flesh inside of him; he must have overcome flesh. As long as you are still struggling with flesh, you are not yet living but spiritual.

23. Everything the High Priest will minister to us are majestic things - these things give us dominion; we must have dominion over flesh. The flesh nature is the body of sin,  not sin itself. Flesh generates sin as a life. It is a judgment.

24. Flesh has brought certain profit to the soul such that if it is disempowered, we look useless, so we tend to keep it but we should let Jesus deal with flesh in us. We need the ministry of the Son because we have not fully overcome flesh; a true soul is a soul that has been completely rid of corruption. An incorruptible soul is a true soul.

25. Flesh is not the only work of the devil in us but it is the first work of the devil. If we still commit sin, something of the devil is still in us. Destroying the works of the devil is first of all to destroy flesh. When the Son of God comes to the Sanctuary He comes to destroy the first work of the devil which is flesh because that is what makes us sin.

26. The second work of the devil is darkness. Darkness is iniquity, iniquity is higher than sin; it is the body of corruption in the soul. The sin Satan sinned in the beginning is not what we call sin; Satan’s sin is what we do normally without repenting. Worry is an insult that we do not trust God, it is a lack of trust. Worrying will make us make the wrong decisions. Gentleness is a nature in God.

27. A saved man is an incorruptible, undefiled and unfading man.

Interpretation of Tongues

“Entrances. Many, many, many entrances. For the Son is speaking. The Son is resonating. The Son is bringing in thoughts. The Son is visiting your thoughts. He is visiting your thoughts with the thoughts of His Father. The Son is thinking you up, He is reasoning you up. It is a reasoning. Come, come, come, let us reason together. It is an invitation, you are being invited to come reason with the Son of God. You are being invited to come think with the Son, to come fellowship with the Son. It is a call to a fellowship. The fellowship of the Father, and of the Son. The reasoning is exclusive to the Father and to His Son. There is a reasoning, there is a thought pattern, there is a reasoning pattern that is exclusive to the Father and to His Son.”

“Invitation is given to you. Invitation is stretched to you to come reason with the Father. Come reason with the Son. Come take thoughts with the Father, come take thoughts with the Son. This is an extension of the Mercy Of God to mankind. It is an extension of the blessings of God to you. Come, come take thoughts of heaven. Come take thoughts of the Father. Come see thoughts of the Son in this place.”
