rather it testifies about the love, power and grace of the One who saved me, Jesus Christ. My salvation is fully reliant on Jesus and nothing I have done. I was raised by two Christian parents, who deeply love the Lord. This was truly a blessing in my life, as I was exposed to the Bible and church at such a young age. At the age of five, I came to a simple knowledge of who God was. I knew I was a sinner and that because of my sins, I deserved hell, but by God’s grace and Jesus’ death on the…
Jesus is, without a doubt, the true son of God the Father. In addition, there is significant evidence to support that He is God Man. This is backed up by the Trilemma Argument along with the John’s Gospel in the New Testament, the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies. Primarily, the Trilemma argues that Jesus did claim to be divine. If Jesus was not divine, he cannot be a good man because that would make Him either a liar or lunatic. Now, due to Jesus’ teachings and Holy life as depicted…
earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life (Jesus) and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, (Jesus) so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he sworn to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.” (Deuteronomy 30:19-20 NIV) ‘Don’t you get it? I love you.’ God already led out the Way, and all we must do is…
experience and understanding of A) God At the core of my understanding of God is a God of love in covenantal relationship with God’s children. Romans 8:38-39 says it well; “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The practice of ministry has only proven to strengthen that…
Jesus’ identity can not be better explained that the words of peter, “you are the messiah, who could we turn to but not you.” Jesus’ identity is freedom to my soul in a sense. But that doesn’t mean that he is not the son of God, because he is. But of the “I am…” statements the one that tell really the most of his identity is, “I am the living bread.” To me this is his greatest revealing of who he is. In John 6:51 it says this, “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this…
By Christology standards and ideals, Jesus is more of an idea, a way of life than an actual human being. To explain further, all I simply mean is that the reason Christianity is followed is not because of the mythology behind it. It is because of the message it spreads, the positivity it spreads around the globe. It’s a way of life, therefore many people can interpret this way of life through their own perspective. Thier own experiences, which if you have faith, you can say that these…
has confessed my sin to Jesus Christ, claimed the gift of Salvation that He has given me and have surrendered my life to Him, I am no longer under the law of the Ten Commandments but under God’s grace. I still make it a goal to obey the Ten Commandments, not to earn my way to heaven, but in response to the gift of salvation I have received from the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross. As a follower of Jesus, I no longer try to live for myself but for him. As I follow Jesus and am lead by…
“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:10 Bible). Before Jesus Christ’s crucifixion, Jesus knew his destiny and the terrible fate that lay before him, but he was able to demonstrate moral courage even in the face of people denying that he was the son of God, the Savior, the Messiah. As a result of the disbelief of the people, he was stripped of his garments, but he still stayed true to his destiny and his moral courage to…
palm of your hand and eternity in an hour. Being the son of the creator is a privilege and an honour, for he has created me as the seal of perfection full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. Surely none of my brothers possesses such a perfect blessing like mine. Could that mean that he secretly loves me more than my brothers? I remembered how my father God told my brothers and me that his thoughts and ways were higher than ours. Which at first I didn’t understand because I was only a child. My…
