What are we to remember about Jesus? Some of the things we must remember are:
He came from Heaven, where He had all the honor, majesty, and glory of a King. He emptied Himself of all of this to take upon him the form of a man and a bond slave, as the Son of Man.
He is the very Son of God! He never was, nor ever shall be, just any man.
He actually came and lived on the earth, just as we do, 2000 years ago! Because He did, He knows "the feelings of our infirmities" and exactly how to pray for us.
He willingly came to take our place on the Cross for our sins. The only One without sin, took our sins in exchange for His righteousness.
Not only did He take our sins upon Himself, He became sin for us..."the Lamb of God slain from before the foundation of the world." He died that we might live!
In pouring out His blood, He bought us back out of the hand of the devil, and made you and I acceptable to God. God can now associate with us again through that blood.
He refused to escape from being taken captive, tried and crucified, (though he had the power to call upon a legion of angels to help Him.) so we could be set free.
He was willing to be forsaken by the Father, so we will never be forsaken.
He not only gave us life, but Eternal Life! This is a great treasure the world does not have, or even know about.
He became our new covenant with the Father, and remains our covenant today.
He lives today because He was resurrected from the grave, abolishing both, "the sting of death and the victory of the grave." Because of this, "we have already passed from death into Eternal Life!"
He is our Lord, if we ask Him to be, and if we submit to Him out of love.
He's coming again, and the moment of His coming is getting ever closer., and then we will be with Him forever and ever!
He loves us with an everlasting love, for He is love! That's why He came to earth, died, rose again, ascended and sent the Holy Spirit down to us; and He is coming back for us! Because He loves us! He loves us!
