In
our search for the real GOD, it is important to know our real God and Savior
JESUS CHRIST who is the foundation, author, and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2). The LORD JESUS said in Hosea 6:6
that He desires that our knowledge of Him will grow. Actually, if we know JESUS
and worship Him as our One True Living GOD, He will be happy and when He is
happy He will reward us in many ways that would make us happy too. Happiness
comes from knowing and obeying JESUS and submitting to His lordship too (Psalm
112:1). So start knowing JESUS more now so you’ll be happy. Listed here below
are the simple living truths in the Bible that prove who JESUS is.
1. JESUS is our One True Living GOD.
It is written in 1 John 5:20 that JESUS is our
One True God. Here’s what it says, “And we know that the Son of God
has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true;
and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God
and eternal life.” The LORD JESUS also revealed that He is the LORD our GOD in Matthew
4:5-7 it says, ““Then the devil took Him (JESUS)
into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to Him. ‘If
you are the Son of God, throw Yourself down for it is written: He shall give
His angels charge over you and in their hands they shall bear you up, lest you
dash your foot against a stone’. JESUS said to him, ‘It is written again, you
shall not tempt the LORD your GOD. In the above-mentioned verses,
JESUS revealed that HE is our LORD and GOD by telling Satan not to tempt the
LORD your GOD and that GOD was Him because Satan was tempting Him. Oh, what a
wonderful revelation is this! Moreover, this is also written in Revelation 1:17-18 “When I saw him, I
fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on
me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I
am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive forever and ever! And I
hold the keys of death and Hades". JESUS said, in Revelation
1:17-18 that He is first and the last. He is the FIRST and no one is above Him. He also said in Isaiah 44:6 this, “This is what the
LORD says, Israel 's King and
Redeemer, the LORD Almighty: I am the First and the Last; apart from me there
is no GOD.” The LORD JESUS also
revealed that He is our One True Living GOD in this verse in Acts 20:28; it
says, “Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among whom the Holy Spirit has placed you as overseers to shepherd the church of God, which He obtained
through His own blood”. It says in the verse
that GOD purchased the church with His own blood. No one died for us except for
JESUS so it is clear to say that JESUS is GOD. It is also made known in 1
Corinthians 10:1-4 that JESUS is the GOD who accompanied our ancestors from Egypt to the Promised Land,
Canaan . Here is the verse, “For I do
not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers
and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed
through the sea. They were
all baptized into Moses in
the cloud and in the sea. They all
ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual
drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them,
and that rock was Christ.”
2. He is
our Creator.
It
is written in Colossians 1:16 that JESUS is our Creator. Here is the verse, “For by him were all things created, that
are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be
thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by
him, and for him:”
3. He is
our SAVIOR.
It is disclosed in John 3:16 that JESUS died so
that we may have eternal life. Check this verse, “For GOD so loved the world that
He gave His only begotten Son; that whoever believes in Him shall not perish
but have everlasting life.”
4. He is our Greatest JUDGE.
2 Corinthians 5:10 tells us that JESUS is
our Greatest JUDGE. Here is the verse, “For we must all appear before the judgment
seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body,
whether good or bad.”
Now
that you know who JESUS is, all you have to do is to believe and accept Him in
your heart so that His Holy Spirit will live in your heart and guide you in
your Christian journey. I suggest also that you find a Bible-based church like
a Pentecostal church and attend service there every Sunday so you’ll grow in
your faith. Thank you so much for taking time reading this piece. I love you
with the love of JESUS. All glory, honor, highest praises, and thanksgiving are
unto Him. Be blessed!
