Who is Jesus?


Firstly,                               

One must
Consider it in thine heart,
that the Lord
He is God in Heaven above,
and upon the earth beneath;
there is none else.
                            The Book of Deuteronomy 4:39


Jesus left His Father
in Heaven…

The heavens declare
              the glory of God.

                                                The Book of Psalms 19:1

The earth is the Lord's,
       and the fullness thereof.
                             The Book of Psalms 24:1



to walk
in the presence
of man on earth.

"This is My Son
in whom I am well pleased."

~ Almighty God ~
                                                            The Book of Matthew 3:17

                The words of Jesus …

"For I came down from Heaven,
not to do Mine own will,
but the will of Him that sent Me."
                                          The Book of John 6:38

Jesus, born of a virgin

Jesus and the Virgin Mary

"Behold, a virgin
shall be with child,
and shall bring forth
a Son,
and they shall call
His name Emmanuel,
which being
interpreted
is, God with us."

The Book of Matthew 1:23

 

For ye know
the grace
of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that though He was rich,
yet for your sakes
He became poor,
and that ye,
through His poverty,
might be rich.

The Apostle Paul
in the book of
      2nd Corinthians 8:9

 

Why is knowing Jesus so important?

     So we can come into a right relationship with God.

     So we can have fellowship with the living God.

     So we can seek to know God's plan for our life.

     So we can receive God's reward after this life.

     So we can have life after death in Heaven with God.

These are the riches 
you receive
                         through Christ Jesus.

"For My thoughts
are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways
My ways,"
                    saith the Lord.
                                                  Book of Isaiah the Prophet 55:8

As for God, His way is perfect
                                              The Book of Psalms 18:30a

        The words of Jesus . . .


"For God
so loved
the world
that He gave
His only begotten Son
that whosoever
believes
in Him
should not perish
but
have
everlasting life."
The Book of John 3:16

The Greatest Lover
The Greatest Degree
The Greatest Number
The Greatest Passion
The Greatest Gift
The Greatest Invitation
The Greatest Simplicity
The Greatest Person
The Greatest Deliverance
The Greatest Difference
The Greatest Certainty
The Greatest Possession

                      Jesus continues, saying …

"For God sent not
His Son
into the world
to condemn the
world;
but that the world
through Him
might be saved."
        The Book of John 3:17

Just before
Jesus was betrayed by Judas,
arrested and tried,
Jesus lifted His eyes to Heaven
and said . . .


"Father, the hour is come;
glorify Thy Son,
that Thy Son also may glorify Thee:

"I have glorified Thee on the earth:
I have finished the work
which Thou gavest Me to do.

"And now, O Father, glorify Thou Me
with Thine Own Self
with the glory which I had
with Thee before the world was."
                                    The Book of John 17:1, 4-5

But first, Jesus had to suffer crucifixion

         Jesus had to become
                 the perfect acceptable sacrifice
                         to God
                                for the sins of all mankind.

The Crucified Christ
Sketch by Joshua Moldovan

He humbled Himself
and became
obedient to death,
even death on a cross.

For

The blood of
Jesus Christ,
His Son,
cleanseth us
from all sin.

The Book of 1st John 1:7

Jesus speaks these words inviting you.

"Come unto Me,
all ye that labour
and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest.

"Take My yoke upon you
and learn of Me;
and ye shall find rest
unto your souls.

"For My yoke is easy,
and My burden is light."
           The Book of Matthew 11:28-30

With sincerity, speak in your heart
these words to God.

Dear God,
I understand that Your Bible
says all have sinned
and come short of the glory of God.

I understand that Your Son, Jesus,
lived a sin-free life on earth
and died on the cross of a tree
to pay the penalty for everyone's sin,
including mine.

I am sorry for all the bad things
I have done in my life.
I ask You, now, to forgive me for my sins.
Please help me turn away
from anything in my life that is offensive to you.

I understand Your Bible
says that
all who call on the name of Jesus
may be Saved.
I now call upon the name of Jesus
and ask Him to come into my heart
and be my Lord and my Savior.

I thank you, God,
for giving me everlasting life
in Heaven with You
when my life here on earth is finished.
In the name of Your Son, Jesus.
                                                             Amen.
