Jesus Christ: Our Messiah
Jesus Christ and the Messiah… one person or two? Is Jesus Christ the promised Savior, our Lord, and the Son of God? These questions have been raised by many over the past couple of weeks. Much of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection have been left up to interpretation. However, many of the facts as well as history and background are needed in order to consider these proposals. It all began about 2000 years ago when an angel was sent by God to Israel. The angel was sent to a virgin named Mary and the angel told her that through the power of the Holy Spirit of God, she was going to conceive and bear a son. Mary was engaged to her fiancé, Joseph, a carpenter. Mary and Joseph were young Jews, both descendants of the royal line of David, and when Mary informed Joseph of her pregnancy, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream as well. The angel said, “Joseph, Don't worry about taking Mary as your wife: for the child in her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. The child is the Son of God. And when she gives birth to this son, you must name Him 'Jesus', which means Savior, for He will save His people from their sins." This happened as the prophet Isaiah had foretold, The Lord Himself shall give you a sign; Behold,
Early the next morning, Mary Magdalena was the first to visit the tomb, and was the first to acknowledge that the stone had disappeared. She ran and got Peter and Simon Peter who actually went in the tomb. In the tomb, they saw the linens that Jesus had been put in, but no body. The soldiers ridiculed Jesus as they offered Him vinegar. Jesus tasted the vinegar, then called out, "It is finished. Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” Then He bowed His head, and let His spirit go. (www.christiananswers.net) …he went to him and asked him to go to Capernaum and heal his son, who was about to die. Jesus said to him, “None of you will ever believe unless you see miracles and wonders.” “Sir,” replied the official, “come with me before my child dies.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live” (John 4:47-50)
