Do You Realize that Jesus Christ is Your Creator, Redeemer, & Judge?

There is only one true God.  From eternity past, He has existed in perfect unity as a threefold Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  God refers to His Son as “the Word.”  He is the primary means by which God reveals Himself to His creation.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  The same was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” (John 1:1-3)

 God also created angels.  Satan, the highest ranking angel, rebelled against God.  He tempted Adam and Eve to rebel also.  Humans now enter life as sinners.  We deserve condemnation in the lake of fire with Satan and his demonic followers.

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12)

Only an infinite Savior could pay the infinite price of redemption.  At God’s chosen time, “the Word” took on a human body by means of the virgin birth.

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14)

Christ became that infinite redeemer.  He paid that awful redemption price by dying on the cross.  He was buried and rose again after three days and nights in the grave.  No other means of redemption is possible.  All other religious systems lead only to eternal death, even though they promise life to their adherents.  Some religious systems have promised life in exchange for monetary contributions or for faithful adherence to their system.  However, only Christ can save!

 “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” (1 Timothy 2:5-6)

 Does your heart labor over the guilt and burden of sin?  If so, obey Jesus Christ, the Lord, who says,

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.  For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)

“All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” —(John 6:37)

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:” (John 10:27)

On judgment day, those without faith in Christ shall receive irreversible judgment by God the Savior.

“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:” (Matthew 25:41)

Shall God, the creator, be your redeemer, or your judge?
