It’s All About JESUS

• 

Hi people! I know today is a special day for Christians .This blog is not about proving that Jesus has risen from death since history says that around 33AD Jesus died and rose after 3 days. This blog is all about why did he die and where is he now?

Who is Jesus?

Before starting who Jesus is,let me share something important. According to the old testament,God gave some laws to the people during the time of Moses. The laws were very hard to follow.The Law can be thought of as a measuring stick and sin is anything that falls short of that standard. We all have committed sins, the result of this is our separation from God. I guess I need not define what literally the sin is. But for a clarity I can say that sin is nothing but doing something which is not good. Even using a single bad word against your sibling is a sin according to Bible. Because God dislikes bad since he is God of Good.

Romans 6:23| ESV For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The Gospel (good news) says that Jesus’ death on the cross was perfect sacrifice to cleanse us from our sin. Jesus alone was the righteous man to do this. I used the word man in the before sentence. It is true that Jesus came to this world as a human being. But his birth was not similar to ours because he is not a human being. Don’t think that I’m contradicting myself. Let me explain you people properly, Jesus is himself a God but he was unable to bear our separation from him because of our sins that we carry. That’s why he came to this world as a human being to show us a proper direction and to sacrifice himself to remove the sin in us and to call us righteous.

1 Corinthians 15:21: “For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.”

Literally it is very easy for God to die on the cross, that’s why Jesus came to this world as human being to bear the pain as human but not as God. For example a person has taken a loan,He could not repay it and ended his life , now the burden to pay the loan lies on his son. Similarly,Jesus came as son of man and took the burden of sin. Our conclusion for the question is Jesus is 100% man and 100% God.

Can death hold Jesus?

Luke 24:7 |NIV The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”

Answer is no. Death cannot defeat him and Jesus won against the death. We have evidence from the world history that he has risen from the death. Many people tried to disprove it but failed. He is not an ordinary human being to die but he died just for us.

Where is he?

Okay! He is risen from death but where is he? Like there are many people in this world who died and rose but finally they died again. But Jesus was not a human to end his life in same way. Let usrecall,he lived in this world as a human but his birth was unique and his end as a human , now I’m stressing it,end as a human. Being a human we have to end our life in this world. Same way Jesus ended his human life but not through death. It is necessary for him to leave this world as a human being

Luke 24:51 |NIV While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up into heaven.

Then where is he? Answer is, in flesh he is not there in this world . He was lifted up into heaven, but in spirit he is in this world. In spirit,he is ready to help us to win against the sin. In spirit he wants us to grow in him. He wants to live in us in spirit. In spirit,he wants us to be with him. Now,Choice is yours.Do you want him? Do you want the eternal life in heaven or hell? Because the result of sin is hell. Choice is yours. Jesus is coming to this world very soon as God to take us to eternity. Where do you want to go? Choice is yours. You can have this doubt why I’m writing all this stuff. It’s not because I want to harm you or your beliefs but I want to share the truth . Before I was just a daughter of a Christian but Christ was not in me. But Jesus’ love is unconditional and he took me and old Glory is no more. I’m growing in Jesus.

Choice is yours!
