WHO IS JESUS? TRULY?
In the New Testament of the Bible, a man named Jesus said…
John 10:30
“I and the Father are one.”
John 14:9
Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time, and still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’ “?
The claim of being God was incredible. Jesus was either crazy, a liar or telling the truth. But then Jesus also said he was TRUTH! The Bible agrees…
Isaiah 7:14
All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’).
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
John 1:1,2,14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
So, was he man? or God?
Colossians 2:9 NLT
For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body.
Colossians 1:19
For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ…
Though Jesus is God, He chose to be totally man for a purpose.
Philippians 2:6-8
Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
There is more to discuss. I hope we can have a conversation. Please contact me here at Facebook MESSENGER by audio from 3-5pm Monday to Friday. Scheduled small group chats can be organized as well. Or send me a message HERE.
