- JESUS CHRIST -

Jesus Christ's death on the cross will shine God's love for the greatest glory of the Father and the Son

 

The Cross is a power to separate us from our sinful nature. Our troubles come from a not crucified human nature [ Henri Viaud-Murat ]

The Bible confirms us that Jesus is Immanuel = « God is with us » ( Matthew 1 : 23 ). Is there something impossible to God ? We know that everything is possible to God and He can do what He wants. So it’s possible for Him to come on earth as human being if it’s his intention.

Jesus ... asked his disciples :
« Who do people say the Son of Man is ? »
( Matthew 16 : 13b )

Already in this time people have a lot of different answers. Nowadays everybody gives answer according to his own opinion. There were already a lot of papers & talks about the divinity of Jesus. For some people, Jesus is a philanthropist ; for others, He is those who has founded the christian religion.

Your logical answer is not important. The important is « What is Jesus for you ? ». The important is the place of Jesus in your life & during your life. ... This is so important because your eternal life ( your everlasting existence ) depends on your answer. Those who accept His sacrifice on the cross can be certain to obtain God's favor.

 

Simon Peter, one of the disciple of Jesus answered :

« You are the Christ, the Son of the living God ! »

 

 

« Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away »
( Matthew 24 : 35 )

This speech was said by The Christ, the Son of God, 2000 years ago. In the same time, the huge Roman empire controlled the world. Rome was proud of its triumph, so it said that it was eternal. Nowadays all of this Roman empire fell into ruin ; they have disappeared with their idols.

But Jesus Christ's words are always there.

The christian sees empires and human's prodigious realisations fall down, because christian's retreat is not made by men : God is his retreat and his strength ; and Jesus Christ, the unique Son of God, his Lord and his Saviour !

 

 

 

What do we need ? We need not a morals, nor a religion, we need a Person :
« Christ Jesus who came into the world to save sinners » ( 1 Timothy 1 : 15 ).
« Salvation is found in no-one else » ( Acts 4 : 12 )

 

Jesus' life show us the victory of obedience and the victory of love
( Pleasant to The Lord 2010 )

 

We have to fight against human or devil reasons,
reasons which give us doubt about what The Christ has done for us and in us
( Pleasant to The Lord 2009 )

 

 

The Bible says that Jesus has win a great victory on the cross ( read Colossians 2 : 15 ). By his death, Jesus might destroy those who has the power over death, that means the Devil ( read Hebrews 2 : 14 ). At last, Jesus was resuscitated, it is an absolute proof of his victory ! By this success, we have too victory in our daily life ( I Corinthians 15 : 57 ) ; but to have this victory, we must walk and live with Christ !

By the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, Satan and his army lose their power but they continue to exist. Jesus takes off Satan's power on everybody who believes in Him as his Saviour. If we live with Jesus, He protects us, and none of these evil spirit forces can separate us from his Love ( Romans 8 : 38 - 39 ). But for those who don't believe in Jesus, the forces of darkness work in them ( John 3 : 19 - 21 ).

With Jesus, God gives us a new alliance. Jesus is dead once and for all, a sacrifice that is effective for ever ( Hebrews 10 : 10 - 14 ). If we believe in this act, we are saved.

During our life, we have just one interest : it's to be saved. And it's possible only by Christ and in Christ. To trust in Him, to obey Him and to follow Him are life. All the others are meaningless existence.

[ Lothar Gassmann, Andreas Maurer and Thomas Kempis ]

- By JESUS CHRIST, God is more near and more approachable -

 

Jesus Christ is : our Saviour, our Lord and our Beloved

1- Jesus Christ : The Saviour.
Salvation depends on Him, not on us. He has already finish this salvation !

2- Jesus Christ : The Lord.
Our Lord = our Master ; He decides for all, He does all plans, He governs us.

3- Jesus Christ : The Beloved.
The Beloved of our souls : Those who has the first place in our heart. So our life will change, our life will improve and it will be like Jesus' life, like The Lord's life ; that means we will have peace inside us.

« Peace I leave with you ; my peace I give you » ( Jesus' word in John 14 : 27a )

 

 

  • The Cross, a power of separation between us and Satan
  • The Cross, a power of separation between us and our flesh
  • The Cross, a power of separation between us and the world
  • The Cross, a power of union. True union goes always through the Cross
  • Christ's orders to take always with us our daily cross

( Henri Viaud-Murat )

 

Jesus crucifixion is for christians the main message of the Bible …
By the resurrection of Jesus, God has show us his greatest power,
to give again life to someone from its tomb
