Who was Jesus?

I agree with Piper that being neutral on who Jesus is would be cruel at best. Yes i am Christ follower....yes i believe the death, burial, & resurrection or Jesus to be true.....yes i know that requires great faith.......yes i know that there are many evidences that suggest that Jesus was who he said he was.

Yes, i really believe that embracing and enjoying God is the most important thing that i will ever do.....in fact eternity hangs on it.....(yes i really believe that when people die they spend an eternity somewhere). So yes.....i hope that you would embrace Jesus as Truth as well and long for him with great joy. I hope you would embrace Jesus both intellectually and with all of your heart. But i know that you cannot enjoy something until you fully embrace it! Only then does bring joy and fulfillment.

Now I know that some of you see this as complete foolishness, others see it as myth, or even worse a crutch to explain the hard to explain things.

Jesus is......the Christ, the son of God, he is the channel of mercy & grace to a broken and hurting world. Ephesians 2:4-5 "But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ."

My encouragement to you.....in your loneliness, in your hurt, in your quest for truth, in your search for meaning & purpose in this life: try Jesus....i know that sounds trite to some of you....but investigate HIM, his claims, the bible......could it be true? Could he really satisfy?

Indeed.....yes! i (by his grace alone) have embraced it....and millions of others have too. What about you? Who is Jesus to you?
