Irrevocably linked to God
You are irrevocably linked to God. The Bible says so. In the Old Testament we learn that God is the creator of all and has made man in His own likeness. You are in reality that image or reflection of God.
The New Testament quotes Christ Jesus as saying, "God is a Spirit." John 4:24. God is not material. It must follow, then, that God's reflection or image shows forth the same substance. Man must be spiritual.
Jesus knew these facts and demonstrated them daily in his own experience and in the lives of those who sought his help. He conveyed the essence of the unbreakable bond between God and man when he said, "The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise." John 5:19.
