Who is JESUS to Me?

Who is Jesus to Me?

So, you've thought it over, and all of this Love of Jesus stuff sounds pretty cool.� NOW WHAT?� How do you take the leap into God's loving arms?� It's actually very simple.

The bible says Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.� He is the Alpha and the Omega (the beginning and the end).� The only way to get to the Father (God) is through Jesus (John 14:6).

God is manifested in 3 ways, called the Trinity.� This is the Father (God), the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit (the Spirit of God).� They are all one, but are shown in different ways.� Jesus was sent to Earth by God to die for our sins, so that we may have everlasting life (John 3:16).� This means that Jesus willingly subjected himself to the agony of crucifixion to save our souls.� This is not just the soul of Mother Teresa or Billy Graham, NO WAY, this is you and me, in all the times that we fail.�

How can you understand what this sacrifice means?� I heard it described best in the following:

"Imagine that you were the only person on Earth.� God loves you so much that he would still have sent Jesus to Earth to save you.� Now, the bible said Jesus would be crucified.� Because you were the only person on Earth, God would have known that it would be you who would nail him to the cross.� But, by believing in him, you would be saved forever in Love."

The bible says that this Gift of Life is just that, a gift, and we could do nothing to deserve it or earn it.� All we have to do is ask for it, and believe in the gift. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
