What Jesus Means to Me

We are often searching for answers to find out who Jesus was or what His teachings really meant. John includes eight different situations in which Jesus gives what are known as the “I Am” statements. Instead of continuing to simply wonder about who Jesus is, we can take an in depth look into the “I Am” statements that Jesus made while He was here on earth. Conclusions can be drawn by looking at the statements Jesus makes and looking into what they mean. He uses an emphatic “I Am” to bring out important teachings about his person. Most of these statements are known by Christians.

Moreover, he was crucified because of pardoning our sin. I know this stories about Jesus, but, at that time, Jesus existentially came to me as the incarnation. I realized that Jesus Christ is my lord but also sincere friend as he came down to Zacchaeus in the plan of God. This is my experience of and understanding God and God’s love.

Jesus Christ is the Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus lived a humble life, spreading the word of the Lord, and died by crucifixion for the sins of all of humanity. “Jesus is referred to as Savior.

When this question is personalized, it becomes the most important question one will ever be asked or answer. Who is Jesus Christ to YOU? Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10, NKJV). In 1 John 5:11-13 we are told that if we have the son in our life we can KNOW that we have eternal life. Jesus is the only way for us to live an abundant life here on earth, or receive eternal life in fellowship with God. Jesus died on the cross to take the punsihment for our sins so that we could be sinless in the eyes of God. If we do not receive the free gift of eternal life by experiencing the forgiveness achieved by Jesus, then we will receive the punishment we

First, to me, Jesus means forgiveness of sins. God sent his only son, Jesus, to take away all of my sins and the sins of the rest of the world. For that, there is no way to thank him other than praising and thanking God whenever I can and however I can. Next, to me, Jesus is my savior. By coming to earth and making the ultimate sacrifice, Jesus saved me from eternal death in hell even though I didn’t do anything to earn or deserve it.

Jesus Christ, God incarnate came to earth to save everyone from eternal damnation in hell. As humans, with Adam and Eve as our representatives in the Garden of Eden, they broke God’s one commandment, therefore allowing sin to come into the world. Because of this fall, we all deserve damnation, and because of the sin nature inside of us, everyone deserves to die and be eternally punished. However, because of the loving and gracious nature of God, He sent his only son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross to be our representative for sin. When he took the cross, not only did he bear the physical pain of the lashes, the dehydration, and the cross itself, but he also drank God’s cup of wrath for us. Everyone on earth deserves to be on that cross, but Jesus, through his great love for us, paid the ultimate price of his own life to save us.

P1. Jesus touchs each of our lives in different ways, his desire for each of us is to know who He is.Though Jesus would love for each of us to have an insightful persecutive of who he is, the reality is the perspectives from individuals very. Jesus does not pressure the dynamics of having him as the ultimate source of our lives, despite the fact he awaits upon us all to proactively invite him into our lives.The wisdom we formulate around knowing who God is, will establish the characteristics of how we portray Him."To demonstrate God's love, Jesus defended from the Father and worker toward his "hour," time of his suffering and death on behalf of the world." P.290 Our efforts of understanding who Jesus is will determine the standards of how our faith with God will grow. Eventhough faith is a significant element to the formulation of believing in Christ, proception, disarmament and impression of Jesus is what will ultimately establish the formation of faith.

This led me to read the Gospels once I came home. I read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Each and every single word I read…I fell so deeply in love with. What I learned about Jesus was that he was nothing like what my history teacher, religious friends, or even family had taught me he was. Jesus was God made into the flesh, set apart to save and rescue the broken and weary to simply have rest. Jesus was but a God whom was not crowned with Gold but with Thorns, all for a royalty that was bestowed in a sacrificial glory, a glory so unique that it killed Jesus himself. Jesus is my friend, my father, my savior, and most importantly my God. To him is whom I breathe and work so deeply for. My kingdom is not on this Earth, but it is in the presence of Christ. I am in awe with his yearn to constantly be the voice of those who have felt ignored. Jesus mentions how he was sent to be with the sick and to specifically save sinners. Many beliefs exist, but none can fathom the unique and intricate relationship found in Christ. We are all around a mountain, hoping to find God on the top. We base this climb by our strengths and in our own deeds. We push so deeply to

Being an Atheist, I’ve had hundreds of arguments with Christians about Jesus and religion in general. No matter what evidence I provided, the Christian always seemed to bypass it with the Personal relationship cop out. They would tell me they don’t practice religion, and that they have a personal relationship with Jesus. They would insist that I take five minutes of my time at night and call on Jesus while I’m all alone. Christians believed that Jesus would answer me, and my pathetic life will never be the same. It dawned on me that they were merely regurgitating what was taught to them by others. That the Christian didn’t really have a personal relationship with Jesus, but a personal relationship with themselves. Being frustrated with the fact that Christians can actually get away with not providing substantial evidence, I decided to research the origin of the personal relationship copout. Who created the concept of a personal relationship? Is the personal relationship copout in the bible? How old is the concept of a personal relationship? These are the questions that turned on the light bulb in my head. I just had to research and find out the answers, so here it is.

Good morning brother and sister, I pray all is well with each of you as we almost come to an end to this series…Jesus preaching on the mount announce that not everyone that call out His name will enter into Heaven… in other words brother and sister, not everyone that goes to church every Sunday, read their Bible, goes to Bible Study and Sunday School and even pay their tenths will enter into Heaven… that’s brother and sister should scare a lot of us…

Since I have been influenced so much by my parents and by Tyler (my youth pastor who I previously wrote on), I find myself seeing Jesus as a combination of their views, in addition to adding my personal experiences which helps me see who Jesus is to me. What it comes down to, is that he is not some super-natural divine being that I can never talk to, but really just an awesome role-model and friend that is always by my side.

The name Jesus Christ spawns multiple feelings throughout cultures. Jesus Christ is also a name that has impacted everyone in a monumental way and is impacting all aspects of society. No matter how you feel about Jesus Christ, it is insurmountable to deny the fact that he is not an impactful figure in the world we live in today. The question that is frequently asked about this ponderous figure is “who is Jesus”. This question does not hold only one individual answer, but withholds multiple answers. Depending on the culture, country, time, place, and especially who you ask, you will receive answers that all hold uniqueness. In less of an opinionated stance, the Holy Bible holds the answer to who exactly he is and why is such a conspicuous figure. To understand Jesus Christ and formulate an opinion on him, we must interpret the Holy Bible and construe his impact in not only today’s society, but history. There is no denying that the upbringing of a religious figure has caused mountainous affects in history; both positively and negatively. The destruction and saving of man has inevitably been a result of multiple religions throughout the world. Whether you fathom a mindset of acceptance or denial, Jesus Christ is one of the world’s most notable figures.

Second of all, Jesus referring as lord is the ultimate reason that I put on my faith and surround my life to him.

Jesus is the Savior of the world, the Son of God who died for our sins. If we do not recognize our own failings and inadequacies, we cannot

There have been many ways in which people have called Jesus: a prophet, a priest, an impostor, a holy man, a master, a philosopher, The Christ, the Son of God, etc. but the true meaning behind His name will only be determined by the faith and revelation.
