John 14:9
Yahshua said to him, "Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip?
He who has seen Me has seen the Father..."

When the Father wanted to reveal Himself to creation He formed the Word. As the Father showed
this to me He showed me the process by which a word is formed. We utter forth speech as we
breathe out. Yahweh designed speech to be accomplished in this manner. Speech is accomplished
by the exhalation of man's breath.

Throughout the Bible the word for Spirit is always related to the word for breath, air, or wind. In the
Old Testament the word is "ruach." The first occurrence is found in the second verse of the Bible.

Genesis 1:2
The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit
[ruach] of God was moving over the surface of the waters.

This same word is used in the following verses.

Genesis 7:22
All in whose nostrils was the breath [ruach] of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

Genesis 8:1
And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark:
and God made a wind [ruach] to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged...

When man who has a body of flesh breathes out his exhalation is air. When Yahweh who is Spirit
breathes out, His exhalation is Spirit. Even as man's breath is used to form words, so was the
exhalation of the Spirit of God used to form Christ, "the living Word."

Luke 1:35
The angel answered and said to (Mary), "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the
Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God."

What Yahweh did in sending His Son to the earth in the form of man was a physical re-enactment
of what the Father did in the very beginning of the creation. He breathed out His Spirit and formed
the Word, the only begotten, directly generated Son of God. This Son is a perfect expression of the
thought, mind, character and being of the Father. All that pertains to the Father was embodied in the
Son. Yet, the Son’s body in His original creation was different from the human form He took on
when He was born of a virgin woman. The Son of God received a heavenly body. It was a body of
great glory and immeasurable power. By the exercise of this body He created all things. We are told
that when the time came for the Son of God to be born of a woman in order to redeem mankind, He
had to lay aside the glorious form of His first creation.
