All About Jesus Christ



WHY JESUS IS LORD

QUESTION: Why Jesus is Lord - What are the reasons?

ANSWER:

Jesus Christ claimed to be the Son of God; a Savior for all people who choose to
believe in Him. The fact that Jesus claimed to be the Messiah is not unique in
history. Many people have claimed to be sent by God throughout history. Acts
5:36 references a man named Theudas who claimed to be: "somebody" that people
followed. Others include, Mohammed. The life and coming of Jesus was predicted
hundreds of years before He was born in the book of Isaiah. He fulfilled this
prophecy and many others written before His birth to the Virgin Mary. Jesus had
many unique qualities that the others who claimed to be the messiah could not
match; Jesus Christ overcame death on the cross and was resurrected to be with
His Father in heaven. Further examples of why Jesus is Lord include, His ability
to overcome temptation living a sinless and perfect life along with His
abilities to perform documented miracles in the name of God.

As one of the most popular Bible verses, John 3:16-17 says, "For God so loved
the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall
not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to
condemn the world, but to save the world through him."

As Colossians 1:15 says, "He [Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the
firstborn over all creation." Jesus provides eternal hope, through God's grace,
for everyone who believes He is Lord.

God loves the world and all He has created. However, people have chosen to
separate from God through our sins. Jesus provides the bridge for us to receive
God's grace of forgiveness for our sins and fulfill the hope of eternal life.
This was the purpose of Jesus Christ and why Jesus is Lord. God sent Jesus to
earth over 2000 years ago to set the example of how God desires everyone to live
while on earth. He completed His purpose by willingly being crucified so God
could be glorified through His resurrection. He lived His life while here on
earth in perfect obedience to God regardless of the pain and suffering it
entailed which included beatings, humiliation, doubt, ridicule, and finally
ultimate execution with His limbs pierced and pinned to a cross.

Jesus led a life that was completely obedient to God; something we cannot do
regardless how hard we try through our will power or by the level of wisdom we
possess. Everyone has sinned except Christ; He was perfect in love. This is only
something God can be. Jesus performed over 23 documented and witnessed miracles
over nature, overcoming death and powers of healing that have never been matched
or done in the history of the world. Jesus had powers that only God could
possess. He had the ability to predict the future as indicated in the book of
Mark, verse 14:72 and the book of Matthew, verse 16:18. Jesus honored God
throughout every event in His life. He was humble and gentle mirroring God's
Spirit. This is further proof why Jesus is Lord. There is no other faith in the
world that can provide the evidence that Jesus is the Lord. Jesus still lives in
heaven at the right hand of God. We cannot see Him, but must rely on the
documented facts and His message of salvation for all who believe in Him. When
choose to place our faith in Jesus Christ and trust God, He has promised to
secure a place in heaven for each of us.

What do you think?
We have all sinned and deserve God’s judgment. God, the Father, sent His only
Son to satisfy that judgment for those who believe in Him. Jesus, the creator
and eternal Son of God, who lived a sinless life, loves us so much that He died
for our sins, taking the punishment that we deserve, was buried, and rose from
the dead according to the Bible. If you truly believe and trust this in your
heart, receiving Jesus alone as your Savior, declaring, "Jesus is Lord," you
will be saved from judgment and spend eternity with God in heaven.
