Jesus said, "I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me"

Matt. 14:9 Jesus 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; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 “Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me?

Jesus lives out the Father. He expresses the Father. He defines the Father. Whatever He is, He does, says or feels is the Father's life expressing itself in Him

It is, or should be, the same with us Christians. We are one with Him as He was one with the Father. We are one with Him as He was one with the Father. He is the head, we are the body. Both head and body are the Christ. Therefore we should live today as He lived then. He expressed the Father, so we express Christ. We are the Christ.Those who do not say that Jesus is the Christ are the instead-of-Christs. (1 John 2:22) Those who live as an instead-of-christ (anti-christ) are opposed to the organic reality of the body of Christ.

Even unbelievers say that the historical Jesus is called Christ. But if you begin to say that today Jesus is the Christ meaning that Jesus is the body as will as the head, you will be condemned and persecuted by religion, even the Christian religion. For though they know it is true, this undermines their hold on their little kingdom and threatens everything they hold dear: ie. their position and their financial income.

So we can say as our Lord Jesus did, "he that has seen us has seen the Christ!" However only if we continually abide in Him.

This organic Christ is what the book of First John reveals.
