Passage: 1 Timothy 3:16
When we see Jesus in the New Testament, we see people asking “who is He?” This question is still hotly debated today, over 2000 years after Jesus walked the earth. When we read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, we see clearly. The gospels tell us that Jesus is the Son of God.
The Old Testament prophets spoke of a Messiah that would come. He would be the chosen, anointed King. The claim that Jesus is the Son of God is the claim that He is King. But He is not an ordinary King. He is a king without borders or term limits. He came to bring freedom, peace, and justice. He came with authority to heal, teach, and forgive sin. Jesus is God. He has the authority to tell us what is right and wrong and the authority to judge.
This claim is a monumental claim. Is it really true? Is Jesus who He claims to be? That is what Easter is about. Today is an opportunity to celebrate the resurrection.
