"Who is JESUS CHRIST?"

 

“Who is JESUS CHRIST?”

Colossians 1:15-20

 

Christ is exactly like God, who cannot be seen.

He is the first-born Son, superior to ALL creation. 

Everything was created by Him, EVERYTHIG in Heaven and on Earth,

EVERYTHING seen and unseen, including ALL forces and powers,

and All rulers and authorities.  ALL things were CREATED by God’s Son,

and EVERYTHING was made for Him.

God’s Son was before ALL else, and by Him EVERYTHING is held together.

He is the Head of His Body, which is the Church. 

He is the very BEGINNING, the FIRST to be RAISED from DEATH, so that He would

be above ALL others. 

God, Himself was pleased to live FULLY in His Son.  And God was PLEASED for Him to make PEACE by SACRIFICING His Blood on the Cross, so that ALL beings on earth might be

brought back to God.

This is who Christ is, and the WORK that He accomplished through His OBEDIENCE to His

Heavenly Father.  You used to be far from God, and some may still be far from Him.  Your thoughts and actions made you His enemies, because they were evil thoughts and actions, by God’s standards.  But, JESUS, God’s Son became a human being and DIED, for your sins and to give you a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, and to make PEACE between YOU and GOD.  And when you ACCEPT His SALVATION, with a DEEPLY ROOTED and FIRM FAITH, you will be able to stand HOLY, FAULTLESS and INNOCENT in the PRESENCE of the HOLY, RIGHTEOUS GOD, and His BELOVED SON. 

 

This process is made possible through these steps:  You MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER, and that you have REBELLED AGAINST God and His Son. You MUST BELIEVE that JESUS CHRIST suffered, bled and died for your sins, and that God RAISED Him from DEATH and the GRAVE, and He is NOW, ALIVE, and at the RIGHT HAND of GOD, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST be willing to TURN AWAY FROM your OLD, SINFUL LIFE-STYLE, and TURN TO GOD.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and the HOPE of HEAVEN as your ETERNAL HOME, and be able to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  So, PLEASE do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
