Who is He to YOU?
The Jesus from Biblical History meant many things to different persons.
For the Disciples and Friends, He was The Christ – The Anointed Son of Almighty God who came to be the Saviour of the people of Israel during the reign and rule of the Roman Empire.
He drew to him many people, who believed He was the Messiah, the liberator of the people from struggle, poverty, and pain. Others saw Him as an obstacle to their way of life. History of over 2000 years ago, wrote that Jesus with mighty power and simplicity did many good things – fed the hungry, healed the sick and preached about the Word of God, on how people should live right, be happy and at the same time please their Creator, God and Father.
In His teachings and from His character, He showed what God is Like: Loving, Merciful, Kind, and Good. With His teachings, He showed people a New Way of Life: God’s Way – A life of Loving, Mercy, Kindness, Goodness, and Graciousness in the way we treat ourselves and other human beings. In all He wanted People to See God in themselves and in others.
Many People followed Jesus at that time and age for various reasons, while others did not like Him or His Teachings and did not follow Him. It may be because He was firm in standing by the truth and was too good for them to comprehend. With His character and teachings, He exposed their evil ways and deeds; making them look bad in the public eye as they have become less than Human. They deviated from their good nature as created by God, thus losing the resemblance of God’s godly nature in them because of their selfish character and merciless deeds. (Genesis 1:26-27)
In all that was written and told over and over again through the past ages to date; some 2000+ years ago, the TRUTH still stands out, that there is a SUPERIOR SUPREME BEING who with Mighty Force holds all things in place and directs the happenings in the whole universe; most of which Mankind cannot comprehend, even with great science.
Also TRUE is that this SUPREME BEING must be obeyed and reverenced as Jesus The Christ said in His teaching; whether we are believers of the foretold history before and after Jesus The Christ or not, does not change the facts about the Creator of the universe who is the Supreme Being: I AM WHO I AM. (Exodus 3:14)
Some, up till now do not believe in the History of Jesus The Christ; His Coming, Teachings, Death, and Resurrection. They still await another to show the way to God’s divine presence, while the teachings of Jesus on the simple way of Love of self and others to please their Creator for their own HAPPINESS and OVERALL WELL BEING. seems too difficult for them to follow (Mark 12: 30-31)
Truth be told, irrespective of what YOU and I believe, the facts about Jesus The Christ’s existence during the past ages and what He did and taught cannot be erased.
The real question here is: What have we done/what are we doing with the TRUTH of love of self and others that He taught about? Whether we like Him or not is irrelevant.
His character and teachings showed the way: To love and practice goodness and kindness to self and others, to be merciful and forgive ourselves and others; above all, to be a Human Being, A GOOD SOUL as was created by our Creator; in resemblance of His Divine Good Nature and Character.
Jesus lived an exemplary life, a life of good character and judgment, drawing strength from God the Creator, who He reverenced with His Being. He believed in the coming judgment of our character and deeds in this Human form, yet He, however, emphasized Love, Inclusion, Oneness, and Peace (Mathew 9:10- 13); much more than the separation from the divine presence and glory of our Creator, God and Father; which is referred to by people and so many religions as Condemnation and Damnation or Hades/Hell. (Mathew 13: 24-30)
You may be surprised to know that Jesus the Christ was not concerned about RELIGION. He never formed one; all He wanted was inclusion and oneness for all Mankind. On the other hand, before He walked the earth, MAN had formed Groupings, Segregation, and Sectionalism, and destroyed ONENESS and in a way LOVE for all Mankind. Man formed religion and confused the world with it, for with religion of all kinds, inclusion and oneness among Mankind were destroyed. Together with it the most important teaching on love of God, self, and others was destroyed and abandoned.
So, what do you think? Who is Jesus The Christ? ……. A Friend or a Foe?
Do you want to dwell on this….? REALLY?
Instead, reason and focus on His teachings of love and on how to maintain your Status as a HUMAN BEING with character and divinity, in semblance to The Creator’s good nature and character. This makes more sense.
Many have refused the Status of being Human Beings to become lesser Humans by not loving themselves and other Humans as they should. The fact is, we cannot give what we do not have in us. If we cannot love and take care of our body, God’s gift; the temple of the Holy Spirit and take care of our Soul which is the semblance of God in us, then we have missed our purpose of existence, lost the Status of a HUMAN BEING and have become lesser Humans, incomparable to even Animals who take care of their kind.
You and I have a life that belongs to the SUPREME BEING, God Almighty, the creator of the Universe and we are to give an account of how this life was used in due time.
With the sufficient grace of God already abundant around and within us, you and I should live our lives as it was meant to be, as a HUMAN BEING.
Your life belongs to your Creator, live loving God, yourself and others.
