THERE IS A MAN CALLED JESUS


Galatians 4:1-4, Luke 2:11, 1st Peter 5:7, Matthew 16:14-17

Who is Jesus?
Jesus is the son of God and the son of man, who was promised in the old testament as the saviour of mankind. He was born under the law so that everything said concerning him will be fulfilled.
He was born in a manger, he started his ministry at the age of (30) thirty and was fully known as the son of God when he went for baptism and the evidence was shown through a dove and the confession of John the Baptist (the forerunner)

During Jesus Christ's earthly ministry, his contemporaries thought that he was Elijah or john the baptist reincarnated. ( matt 16:14), while others claimed he was a false prophet ( Luke 7:39) and a friend of sinners.
Many worshipped and adored him, while the authorities hated him.
Despite these wearying views of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, God's word give us clear and eloquent descriptions of who he hie both past, present, and future scriptures explained that Jesus acting on behalf of his father is the creator of all things seen and unseen. 
Nothing was created or brought into existence without Jesus.
He is the author and finisher of our faith and the firstborn among the dead,  Jesus is the savior of mankind( Luke 2:11)

The redeemer and the lamp, healer, great physician of our minds and bodies. He is the giver and the sustainer of life; for he said "I am the bread of life".(john 6:35) and the only true vine.

Jesus brings us peace when problems come our way. He challenges us to cast all our cares on him, for he cares for us(1st peter 5:7).
He is the way the truth, and the life(john 14:6)
He is our lord and savior.

He is our master and teacher for he told us to follow him(matt 23:11)

This Nazarene is our best friend who sticks closer than a brother ( proverbs 18:24) and promises to be with us even unto the end of the world.

Therefore, when Jesus Christ worked on the earth, he was perfectly righteous, this speaks to two sides of his character. 
On the negative side, he was never flawed in thought, words, or deed. He is the only "perfect Term" who ever lived. All the rest of us have fallen far short of perfection, but not Jesus.
There was no sin outwardly because there was no sin inwardly, he was without fault, inwardly he was without fault and evil.
He made amazing claims and then backed them up with amazing deeds. 

Finally, Jesus Christ is our soon coming king, who will take us to be with him, where he is, we will be also.
Christ will come and will reign in righteousness upon this earth as king of kings and lord of lords.
He has an endless measure of joy, fellowship, and communion to give every believer for all eternity...

THERE IS A MAN CALLED JESUS. 
HE CHOSE YOU FIRST AND NOW HE WANTS YOU TO CHOOSE HIM TOO.

Cast all your cares upon Him

Image
1Pet. 5:7, Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. - AMP. Why worry when you have The ONE who can take care of all your needs? God has always shown us and told us that HE is our father and HE called us HIS son. One of the responsibilities of a responsible father is to cater to the need of his children while it is the responsibility of the child to trust his father and take all his care (needs) to him. Apostle Peter shows us a dimension of GOD as the one that takes care of His people. Cares which is interpreted as anxiety or worry.  Anxiety means an overwhelming sense of apprehension and fears often marked by physical signs (such as tension, sweating, and increased pulse rate), doubt concerning the reality and nature of the threat, and self-doubt about one's capacity to cope with it (Merriam Webster dictionary.) Anxiety will alway...

Christ's Ambassador

An ambassador is simply known as an official messenger and representative of a country in a foreign country.  An Ambassador is given freedom in a foreign country. They are highly respected to perform activities especially in protecting the interest of their country in the foreign country.  Christians are known to be the ambassador of Christ in this world in which we have been commissioned to present and protect the interest of our country. 2 Corinthians 5:20 says “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation .”  This is the great task committed to us by our country leader Jesus Christ to bring unto his kingdom the people of the world and we cannot afford to ignore this assignment. An ambassador representing his country in a foreign country will never forget his primary assignment in that country so also we must not forget our primary assignment. The...

Acknowledging God; a means of getting direction

To acknowledge has various definition. Some of them are listed below 1. Admitting the knowledge of something or someone; recognizing it as a fact or truth; declaring one's belief in something or someone. 2. To be grateful of. But for this article, we would be looking at acknowledging as expressing recognition of the rights, efforts or authority of someone. What does it mean to direct? In simple terms: point out or show (to somebody) the right course or way; to guide, as by pointing out the way. You might be wondering, how do the definitions listed above relate with the topic? What significance do they have with the topic being explained? For better understanding, we go back to a verse in the Bible. Proverbs 3vs6: in all your ways acknowledge Him (God), and He (God) will make your paths straight . From the passage, we are made to understand that directions come when we acknowledge God. We will be shown the right path to walk in when we recognise the authority of God upon our lives. ...
