Jesus Christ is the Son of God and very God Himself. Jesus said, in John
10:30 "I and my Father are one".
He said in John 16:15 "All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said
I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you". He said in John
17:11 "And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come
to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me,
that they may be one, as we are". Apostle Paul wrote about Jesus Christ in
Colossians 1:15-18 "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of
every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that
are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or
principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he
is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the
body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all
things he might have the preeminence". The writer of Hebrews wrote about Jesus
Christ, as follows:
Hebrews 1:1-14 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past
unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his
Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and
upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our
sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Being made so much
better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name
than they. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son,
this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he
shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the
world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. And of the angels he
saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. But
unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of
righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness, and
hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of
gladness above thy fellows. And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the
foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: They
shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou
art the same, and thy years shall not fail. But to which of the angels said he
at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? Are
they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be
heirs of salvation?
John testified that Jesus was the Lamb of God. The next day John saw Jesus
coming toward him and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of
the world!" John 1:29
The verse in John Chapter 1 as cited above is the clear definition of who Jesus
is. Jesus was the Word, He was with God and He is God Himself. Jesus is the
creator of this world, he is the second person in the Trinity, consisting of God
the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. God exists in three persons and God is
One. The three are not three Gods but One God and three persons in One. They
have different functions yet, they are One, co-equivalent, co-existent.
When Adam fell from the presence of God by sinning against God, he was sent out
of Garden of Eden. The sin Adam committed by eating the forbidden fruit in the
Garden of Eden is inherited by all of us. Jesus Christ, who is also called, the
last Adam had to incarnate and come down from heaven to bear our sins and die in
our stead.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life”. John 3:16
God loved us so much that He sent His one only one son Jesus Christ to this
world for the remission of our sins. He was born of the virgin Mary, as a result
of the works of the Holy Spirit and was raised a carpenter’s house of His
earthly parents Joseph and Mary. Jesus is the Son of God and God Himself. Jesus
said He is in the Father and Father in Him. Jesus is divine and human. While he
was on this earth he had two natures one of divine and another of human. He did
miracles and healed sick, and preached the Kingdom of God.
“All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but
the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to
whomsoever the Son will reveal him”. Matthew 11:27
By offering Himself upon the cross of Calvary, Jesus opened the way for everyone
to be saved. Jesus died for our sake as an atonement of sacrifice. Jesus, who is
righteous, declares us righteous upon our confession of our sins. "Whom God hath
set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his
righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance
of God". Romans 3:25
Several sick were healed; the sins of several were forgiven by him, yet he was
not accepted by the authorities at that time and was crucified. Romans chose
Barabbas, a criminal to be released in place of him, So the governor Pilate
released Barabbas and handed over Jesus to be
“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man
be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God”. John 3:3
They parted his garments, they scourged him, they hurled insults on him and
crucified along with two thieves; yet Jesus was so kind on those who crucified
them. “Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
And they parted his raiment, and cast lots”. Luke 23:34 Jesus also forgave one
of the thieves who was crucified along with him, when the thief made prayer to
him to remember him when Jesus comes into His Kingdom. Jesus immediately to him,
“And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me
in paradise”. Luke 23:43
But on the third day Jesus rose from the dead and after providing purification
for our sins ascended to heaven and is seated at the right of the Majesty.
Jesus died upon the cross of Calvary so that we may be reconciled unto Him.
There is no difference, whether we are Jews or Gentiles; He died for all of us,
and rose from the dead and ascended in to heaven. We, who were His enemies, are
made His children. The opposition that was caused between Heaven and Earth by
our committing sins is removed once and for all, by the appeasement of our sins
by Jesus Christ dying on the cross for our sake. We are reconciled unto God
through His blood that was shed upon the cross of Calvary.
Today is the day of salvation Jesus saves you
