As true Christians, we must properly understand the role and function of God the Father and Jesus Christ, the Son. When the New Testament speaks of “God,” it mostly refers to the Father, while the word “Lord” generally describes Jesus Christ. Christ identified Himself as the Lord; so did angels, and so did many of the New Testament writers. The word “Lord”–“kurios” in Greek–conveys the meaning of “controller, God, Lord, master, sir and owner”–one who is in authority, and to whom “service is due on any ground.” We must obey Jesus Christ, our Lord, recognizing that He is also God. This includes, consenting heartily to His commands, without being ashamed of His words, and walking worthy of Him. We are to love Him and His appearing, while eagerly waiting for His Coming without fear.
