When discussing Jesus short time on earth, we know that God sent him to earth to teach, and preach the word of God. Teach us to Learn and study the scripture, the Bible. To walk by faith and not by sight. And Jesus did that and much much more. Jesus was the light. People were drawn to him, drawn to his purity and innocence, drawn to his vast knowledge of the word of God, spoken through parables. Performing miracles, curing leprosy, blindness, the crippled, walking on water, making wine from water, casting demons out of people, raising the dead, and many more miracles such as transforming the church to houses of God and standing up to Roman government rules and regulations on controlling the word of God.
Jesus was known as the Messiah, Teacher, Rabbi, Son of Man, Son of God, Lord, Master, Jesus of Nazareth, Son of God.
Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice, dying on a cross, a crucifixion, being resurrected and solidifying believers and faithful followers of God that there would be everlasting life in heaven with God and Jesus.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice. An ultimate sacrifice that paid for all of our sins. We were given an opportunity to seek repentance, forgiveness, and retribution. We were given a chance to transform from our own sinful past and start anew with a new presence, a chance to be the light that Jesus was.
It all starts with a new beginning for us. An act of faith, of belief. Pray and Pray often. Beg the Lord for forgiveness for your sins. Repent. When I started repenting, I tried to imagine every sin that I ever did, and it was mind numbing. I thought who could forgive me for all of these sins that I have committed in my life? But the truth is, Jesus can and will if you believe. If you truly believe and accept him in your heart, Jesus can. My transformation although far from complete has changed my life. The old me has died, and the new me can only see God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. My priorities changed. Gone is the drinking, sinful lusting, lying, boasting, and many other sins. Present is Peace, Love, Joy, Faith and Belief. My studies are now the Bible, Meditation and lots and lots of Prayer and Thankfulness.
My Love for God and Jesus grows each day.
My prayer for anyone reading this article is you will find the reason that Jesus came to earth and that he died on a cross to pay for our sins and offer us a chance to find and believe in him, so that we can go home to our Father one day. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
