EVERYBODY . . .
Everybody ought to know who JESUS is. One of the sad facts of the ages is that only a small percentage of the world's population knows who JESUS is.He is the greatest personage ever to walk the face of the Earth. More books have been written about Him than about any other character of history. But who is He? Do you know Him, Whom to know as your Savior is life eternal? EVERYBODY ought to know who JESUS is. He is God. He came from Heaven to Earth made in the likeness of men. He came to provide salvation for sinners and to make known the way of salvation. He revealed the Father's love for poor lost sinners. God commends His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us
[ROM 5:8]. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through Him might be saved [JOH 3:16, 17]. He is the lover of our souls. The Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me [GAL 2:20]. Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest [MAT 11:28]. This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners [1TI 1:15]. He is the Savior of all who believe in Him. Christ also once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God [1PE 3:18]. The wages of sin is death: but the GIFT of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord [ROM 6:23]. Be it known to you therefore ... that through this Man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins and by Him all who believe are justified from all things [ACT 13:38, 39]. He is the risen, living Savior Who is able to save ALL who come to Him. He is able also to save them to the uttermost who come unto God by Him seeing He ever lives to make intercession for them [HEB 7:25]. Jesus said I am the resurrection and the life: he who believes on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live [JOH 11:25]. I am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved ... And I give to them eternal life and they shall never perish [JOH 10:9, 28]. He is the One who now invites you to receive His as your Savior. If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved [ROM 10:9]. He who comes to Me I will in no wise cast out ... Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes on Me has everlasting life [JOH 6:37, 47]. He is the One Who will judge in righteousness all those who refuse His salvation. He who believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he who believes not the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abides on him [JOH 3:36]. God ... now commands all men everywhere to repent: because He has appointed a day, in which He will judge the world in righteousness by that Man Whom He has ordained [ACT 17:20, 31]. To those who have believed on Him to salvation, JESUS is the fairest of ten thousand. NOW is the day of salvation. Will you receive Him NOW as your Savior?
