In this episode, we are going to talk about the question: Who is Jesus? I know. In a fairly short video, are we going to explore this question fully? Yeah, no. But we are going to talk about a framework you can use while pursuing your relationship with him while learning who he is.
So, what comes to mind when you hear the question, who is Jesus? You might be saying, “He is God.” Yes, but is that all we know about who he is? What else can you think of? “Lord and Savior?” Yes. What else? “Son of God, Our redeemer?” Yes, what else? “He died on the cross and was raised for our sins?” Yes, that is what he did, but who is he? “You going to keep asking that question or get on with the chat?”
Alright, I’ll move on. But the reason I ask is that, well….
Scripture references:
John 1:1-18 ~ Jesus is God, the Word of God through his being the One and Only God
John 15:13,14 ~ He is our friend.
Hebrews 2:9-18 ~ He is our brother.
Acts 17:7, Revelation 1:5 ~ He is our King.
Hebrews 3:1 ~ Our High Priest and intercessor.
2 Timothy 4:1, Acts 10:42, John 9:39 ~ Our Judge.
John 16:12,13 ~ Jesus not overwhelming us with information.
John 1 - whole book. I find this book to be the best for learning who Jesus is.
