Yes, the first thing Jesus said to the people was come and LEARN of me. We have to learn who Jesus is as he teaches us through the holy spirit. Yes ,we have to and must learn of him.
So then who is this Jesus, that we must learn from Him?
John 1:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him
was life; and the life was the light of men.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of
grace and truth.
John 14:
15
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
21 He that hath my commandments,
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him.
So we are to come to Jesus to learn, no other as you said. And Jesus is the Word which became Flesh. He created all things. You, me, the scriptures, His Commandments, and so on.
So Jesus, the Word was the one who spoke to Abram, Yes?
Gen. 12:1 Now the LORD (Word which became Flesh) had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
John 8:
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day:
and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am.
So was it not this same Jesus who said;
Is. 40:
8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth:
but the word of our God (Word which became Flesh)
shall stand for ever.
and again;
Matt. 24:
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away,
but my words shall not pass away.
and again;
1 Peter 1:
24 For all flesh
is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
25 But the word of the Lord (Word which became Flesh) endureth for ever. And
this is the word which by the gospel
is preached unto you.
So then if we are to learn from Jesus, the Word which Became Flesh, and His Words last forever as the scriptures teach, then shouldn't we learn what the New Covenant is from His eternal Words, rather than religious men and their religious tradition?
