Who Do We Say That Jesus Is?

 

 

 

Jesus asked His disciples:

 

Matthew 16:13-17 (KJV)

13  When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

14  And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

15  He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

16  And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17  And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

 

Who do we say Jesus is when we are talking to someone or fellowshipping with them?

Who do we say Jesus is in our actions or response to others?

Who do we say Jesus is when we are in a battle?

When we read and study God’s WORD, who do we say Jesus is to us?

 

Jesus is our Way, Jesus is our Truth and Jesus is our Life!

 

John 14:6 (KJV)

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

 

Jesus is our Way, He is the ONLY way to the Father. He is our Way to the Father.

 

1 John 4:1-3 (KJV)

1  Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2  Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

3  And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

 

He’s our Way to healing and deliverance

 

1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)

Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

 

Luke 4:18-19 (KJV)

18  The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

19  To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

 

Luke 4:18-19 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

18  The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon Me, because He has anointed Me [the Anointed One, the Messiah] to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed [who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity],

19  To proclaim the accepted and acceptable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the free favors of God profusely abound].

 

From the beginning, Jesus is our Truth. When we speak His Word, the WORD of God, we speak of Him.

 

John 1:1 (KJV)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

 

John 1:14 (KJV)

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

 

John 1:1 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

IN THE beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself.

John 1:14 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

14  And the Word (Christ) became flesh (human, incarnate) and tabernacled (fixed His tent of flesh, lived awhile) among us; and we [actually] saw His glory (His honor, His majesty), such glory as an only begotten son receives from his father, full of grace (favor, loving-kindness) and truth.

 

By knowing Jesus, we know the Truth and the Truth has made us FREE!

 

John 8:31-32 (KJV)

31  Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

 

Jesus is our Life!

 

John 11:25 (KJV)

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

 

Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our Faith

 

Hebrews 12:1-2 (KJV)

1  Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2  Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

 

Hebrews 12:1-2 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

1  THEREFORE THEN, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who have borne testimony to the Truth], let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance (unnecessary weight) and that sin which so readily (deftly and cleverly) clings to and entangles us, and let us run with patient endurance and steady and active persistence the appointed course of the race that is set before us,

2  Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

 

Jesus the World Overcomer

 

1 John 5:4-5 (KJV)

4  For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

5  Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

 

Jesus who overcame the world, made us world overcomers when we received Him as Lord and Savior. Jesus made us VICTORIOUS!

 

1 John 5:4-5 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

4  For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

5  Who is it that is victorious over [that conquers] the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on that fact]?

 

Jesus, the Greater One

 

1 John 4:4 (KJV)

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

 

Jesus is our Peace

 

Ephesians 2:13-14 (KJV)

13  But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

14  For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

 

Ephesians 2:13-14 (AMPC – The Amplified Bible Classic)

13  But now in Christ Jesus, you who once were [so] far away, through (by, in) the blood of Christ have been brought near.

14  For He is [Himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us,

 

In Jesus we have Peace, without Jesus there is no peace.

 

John 16:33 (KJV)

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
