About Jesus
Who do you say He is?
The Man
​
​
Jesus was born more than 2000 years ago in Bethlehem just south of Jerusalem. He was no ordinary man. He was fully human and fully God. He was conceived by Holy Spirit and born to a teenage virgin. He was a carpenter like his earthly dad and studied the ancient scriptures. From the age of 30 like most Rabbis, He began to teach and preach about God’s Kingdom. Jesus performed miracles like no other. He preached messages that amazed the religious leaders. He proved He was God by His words, His actions and His resurrection.
The Mission
In the beginning God created a perfect world, without sin. Adam and Eve walked in perfect relationship with God.
But, when Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, sin entered the world and all humanity.
You don't have to look far to see that we live in a broken world. We are born into brokenness and into sin.
​
We can try many things to escape the sin and brokenness in our world like climbing the ladder of success, drugs, alcohol, multiple relationships, amounting materialistic things and many other ways but none of them actually take us out of our brokenness. If anything they point towards how desperately we know there must be something more. Sin separates us from God.
​
God loves you and every person He created in the world, so He created a plan for that separation to end. He did for us what we could not do for ourselves. Jesus came to earth to reveal who God is, to establish his Kingdom and to reconcile men and women back to God. He didn’t come to condemn us but to save us. To achieve this, Jesus had to live in the world without sin and then die as a sacrificial substitute for our sin. He alone could save the world from sin. Jesus is therefore the Saviour of the world, the only way for sinners to be reunited with God. Jesus accomplished His mission through His death, burial and through His resurrection.
​
Jesus is the only way to be back in relationship with God. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. (The Bible: John 14:6)
The Message
Jesus preached a message that was full of grace and truth and consistent with ancient scriptures. In fact, He is the fulfilment of every prophecy concerning the Promised Messiah and Saviour of the world. He calls each one of us to repent and be born again. That is, to turn away from sin and doing things our own way, and receive what He has done for us.
'If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.'
(The Bible: Romans 10:9-10)
Everyone who believes His message receives eternal life, forgiveness of sins, and freedom from guilt and shame. Jesus taught us that real life consisted of following Him and His teachings.
When we follow Jesus, His message becomes our mission. We are called to share this message with others.
The Response
“Jesus, I confess you now as my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised you from the dead.
I ask you to forgive me of all my sin and be the Lord of my life. By faith in your word, I receive
Your salvation now. Amen”
When you commit your life to Jesus, the truth of God's word immediately comes to pass in your spirit.
It is no longer your who live, but Christ who lives in you. (The Bible: Galatians 2:20) When you pray this
prayer from your heart you are now a new creation in Christ Jesus!
