Meet Jesus
Who Is Jesus?
The questions we like to ask about God are endless: “Does God exist?” Does He care about me?” “Is what we know about Him really true?” and “what does He have to do with my life?” just to list a few. The Bible may not answer every question about God and will often lead us to ask more, but one of the areas in which the Bible is quite definite, is the answer to the question: who is Jesus?
According to 1 John 3:5, Jesus came to earth in human form so that He could die a physical death and take away our sins. Jesus was with God from the beginning. He was God (John 1:1-3). Jesus loves everyone. He became flesh and lived among us (John 1:14). He was tempted in every way like us (Hebrews 4:15). Hence, he sympathizes with our weaknesses.
“This is how much God loved the world: He gave His son so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in Him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life”.
John 3:16 MSG
A New Beginning…
To be made whole, or to be saved is to submit to God and His plan and purpose of our lives. It is a turning from our old ways and turning to Jesus, to ask Him for forgiveness from our sins and to give us new life in Him. Romans 10:9 says that “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
So, to accept Jesus into your life, say these words out loud:
Say These Words Out Loud
“Dear Jesus, I’m praying this prayer because I know that I have done wrong by living without You. I am sorry and I trust that You will forgive me. I accept Your love and grace for me and ask that You would be my Lord. Help me believe in You and love You every day, and help me to show the world what You are like and how great Your love is. In Jesus Name. Amen”.
