Something not ordinarily noticed about Jesus is the remarkable fact that He consciously saw Himself as a living symbol—that of SPIRITUAL AWARENESS ACTIVE IN MAN. He patterned His whole life on that symbolic role. Also, He conducted two ministries simultaneously: a ministry of WORKS and a ministry of WORDS. After His ascension His words began to take on a new light and have new meaning in the minds of His followers. We are the beneficiaries of that dawning, and we today are the congregation of His ministry of words. This is one aspect of the second coming of Jesus Christ.
