CHRIST ETERNAL

In the beginning the Word already existed. He was with God, and He was God. He was in the beginning with God. He created everything there is. Nothing exists that he didn't make.
John 1:1-3 (NLT)

Jesus Christ is the Word of God described in these verses. When the "beginning" took place, He already was. Someone has correctly stated, "There never was a time when He was not." If we could travel back into the history of the universe to the first moment we call time, Jesus would be there. While it is beyond our comprehension, Jesus has always been, as has the Father and the Holy Spirit.

In addition to Jesus' eternal existence, we learn that He is God. He is not a part of God, or a semblance of God, but really God and fully God. Jesus did not come to earth as half man and half God, but completely God and completely man at the same time. He was, is, and always will be God.

Adding to these magnificent truths is the fact that Jesus, the eternal God, created the Universe in which we exist. If you were to go outside and look around your neighborhood, or focus your eye through the lens of the most powerful telescope, everything that you see in all of creation was made by Jesus Christ.

The next time we say the name, "Jesus," let us do so with these truths in mind. He is greater than we have ever imagined Him to be.

PRAYER THOUGHT: Lord Jesus, may my worship of the Word be representative of who You truly are.

PROCLAIMING THE SAVIOR

Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. All who proclaim that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. 1 John 4:14-15 (NLT)

I am a preacher, but most of all, I proclaim that Jesus is the Savior with various applications of that truth in our everyday lives. If you are a Christian, you are a preacher also. Whether you have been ordained or not, hired by a church or not, or ever been recognized as a preacher or not is beside the point. All who have God living in them are called to proclaim the Savior to the world. It is a holy calling, and a demanding one. It will pull you out of your comfort zone, challenge your commitment, and help to develop you into the person God has created you to be.

John spoke as an eyewitness to Jesus' saving power. We speak as heart-witnesses; ones who have not seen Jesus with our eyes, but have experienced Him through personal transformation. I speak, and you speak, as a representative of Christ on earth. The message that we bring is simple, yet profound; that God the Father sent God the Son into the world to save those who are lost to bring them into relationship with Him. As you tell the story, and I tell the story, some will listen and receive the grace that God has sent us into the world to proclaim.

PRAYER THOUGHT: Father, what a privilege to be a spokesperson for You.

*********************************************************************************************************************************

You are fearfully and wonderfully made by God Himself, and He promises to those who trust in Him that He will hold them in His hand and literally carry them all the days of their lives. So when we have troubled times, difficult days and we think you will fall apart, He will deliver us from death, keep us alive in famine and literally hold us together by Christ Jesus, for by Him all things were created Colossians 1:15-17.

*********************************************************************************************************************************

My God "is" God, and Jesus Christ "is" my God!
The key to heaven is hanging on a rusty nail
and says, "Be Ready! 'I AM' coming back."
And by His wounds we are healed!
(Isaiah 53:5)

Jesus paid the price for my sins
and made me right with God 1 Peter 3:18;
Praise His holy name!
Faith____is the victory!
Oh, glorious victory; That overcomes the world!

Colossians 1 says in Him all things are held together.

               Those who passed by hurled insults at him, shaking their heads and saying...."Come down from the cross, if you are the Son of God!" In the same way the chief priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders mocked him. "He saved others," they said, "but he can't save himself! He's the King of Israel! Let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him". (Matt. 27:39-42)

              Jesus would not come down from the cross to save man or Himself, because He chose a better way for them to believe in Him. He would rise up from the grave so they could believe and be saved unto everlasting life.

               Jesus said in John 14:1; Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.....

              You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrated his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:6-8)

              This is salvation, the free gift that Christ's death gives us, and it is unachievable but it is very receiveable. There is nothing we can do to earn it. All we can do is accept God's free gift through faith that God loved us enough to do this for us (John 3:16).

              The apostle Paul says to the Ephesians; "it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."

              Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. (Romans 5:9-12)

               Jesus said in John 14:6; I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father except through me. He also said in John 16:33, "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

              Again in John 10:10, He said; "The thief cometh not, but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that you might have life, and that you might have it more abundantly." I believe that Jesus has come into our lives and gives us discernment about how to live; physically, spiritually, and even financially.

              We are to do everything that we can to live a healthy life, because 1 Corinthians 6:19 says; "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body."

              Jesus Christ came to offer us a free choice between life and death. I created this web page to reveal the truth about Jesus Christ, my God, and to show that because Jesus Christ cared for me, I can, now, care for people. In John 15:12, Jesus said; "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."

              God loves us, and in James 4:7-10, James says "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and He will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up." I believe God's love is eternal and His promises apply to every generation.

              I believe Christians can claim the same promises God gave Joshua and the Israelites in Joshua 1:5-9 if we do as James instructs us. God promised His chosen people that, "No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them.

              Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

              And again, Moses told the Israelites in Deuteronomy 28:1-14 that God promised that if they will completely follow all the commands of the Lord their God as He told them, they will be blessed wherever they are, and everything they own and everything they touch will be blessed. He "will" establish them as His holy people, as He promised, and they will not be the borrower but the lender, the head and not the tail, the top and never the bottom, but they will be a blessing if they pay attention to the commands of the LORD their God and "carefully follow them" (my paraphrase).

              Someone once said; "We are where we are today as a result of the choices we made yesterday. Where we will be tomorrow, will be a result of the choices we make today." In his "Daily Devotions", Rev. Barry L. Davis said, "The choice that we make today will have perpetual ramifications for the life to come. Praise God for giving us the gift of choice."

              Speaking of choices, Lieutenant Gen. Kenneth A. Minihan, USAF, Director, NSA, NSA Newsletter, June 1997 said that "The public has a duty to watch its Government closely and keep it on the right track," and I think we need to make a pro-active choice to make sure that we know and understand the things that are happening in our nation. George Orwell said; "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth becames a revolutionary act." It is time for us to know the truth. Please visit the site below while we still have the "right" to do so;

Jesus Christ's resurrection is either the supreme fact in history or a gigantic hoax. If Christ's resurrection is true, we ignore its implications to our "own" destruction. Don't wait too long to make the right choice in what Jesus offers. In Deuteronomy 30:19, Joshua told Israel that God said to "choose life and live." Christ is life, so live by making the right choice, and if you need help in making the right choice, just click Here and you can say Jesus is Lord of my life. Again, "Don't wait too long to make the right choice in what Jesus offers." You must realize the consequences of the wrong dicision. Please watch the video below.
