was, and revealed Himself to us so that we shall be saved, since He alone is the Saviour. He didn’t depend on the confessions of those whom He healed to escape from false accusations. He didn’t speak against those who accused Him. Jesus Christ is neither the accusing Christ nor the condemning Christ, He is the resurrection Christ.
Our sins did nail Him on the cross, but it couldn’t kill Him. Our sins didn’t have the power over His blood. He wasn’t born before 2000 years exactly like us, He came to earth in human form before 2000 years, and that was His incarnation. He is the everlasting God. Our sins did tear His flesh apart, but He gave His spirit to God out of His own will, so that our flesh may go to the earth, and the spirits of those who believe in Him shall go the hands of God. And those who believe in Him will rise up, and they will experience resurrection of their body at His second coming.
And the Bible never talks about reincarnation. He is alive. He is with you right now; He will be in you if you believe Him and receive Him as your Lord and Saviour. Jesus Christ is coming soon, but that will be His second coming. The stage is already set up. You can choose either to be on the side of Dan Brown, along with the mother of the blind man, and the Jews who brought up false accusations. Or you shall be like the blind man who received His sight, and later said, “Lord I believe!” Jesus didn’t speak with the parents of the blind man, He didn’t speak with the Jews, but He spoke to the person who wanted to know Him. The same question is set before you as in John 9:35. If your answer is yes, Jesus Christ will reveal Himself to you as He did to that blind man.
And finally some say that Jesus Christ became sensational when He saw Mary Magdalene, and married her. You could turn your pages to Luke 9:49. Even the best critics nearer to Jesus Christ were able to ask, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” They couldn’t ask anything beyond that. If Jesus Christ had married Mary Magdalene, the Jews who accused Jesus Christ would have surely accused Him saying He married a harlot. You may ask me what could have led that woman to kiss His feet, and another woman to touch the Hem of the garment. You see even men became crazy; Zacchaeus went to the top of the tree to have a look at Jesus Christ. But why is it? The answer is they knew who Jesus Christ is. Mary Magdalene knew that the earth is His footstool, and she knew that He has numbered all our hairs. God would have revealed her that Jesus Christ alone is anointed by Him to be the Saviour of the world. And oil is symbolic of the Holy Spirit. So whether we feel or not His foot is over the earth, and His foot is on our hairs. That’s why she would have kissed His feet. When Christians rise up their head and praise, in some way they are kissing the feet of Jesus Christ through their praises and thanks giving. Jesus Christ told Zacchaeus to come down, we can’t go up to heaven to meet Jesus Christ to see Him and believe, but we shall be in heaven if we have already believed and received Him by faith as our Lord and Saviour here on this earth.
The choice is entirely ours. God didn’t compel Adam to eat the fruit of the tree of Life. God will neither compel us to receive Jesus Christ who Himself is the tree of life for those who receive Him as their Lord and Saviour. Once we receive Jesus Christ as our Saviour we need to commit ourselves to Him; we are in communion with Him. That’s why He has called everyone to eat of His flesh and drink of His blood. That’s the meaning of communion.
Now if you believe that Jesus Christ never committed any sin and knew no sin though He took the form of a man to save us; just as it’s written in the Holy Bible, then you shall come and stand in front of the platform and we shall have a prayer. I surely believe that Jesus Christ alone lived the perfect life without any sin; and all others are sinners. Anything that separates us from God is sin. Any thought against God is sin. Jesus Christ alone is the only person who didn’t think anything against God.
There might be many people in these last days raise up like Dan Brown, they may even do miracles and heal many. But there will be no one who can die the death that Jesus Christ did and raise up from the tomb on the third day. Even if anyone tries to die on the cross and prove that he/she is the Christ, if they die, and you bury them, you will still find their buried body stinking in the grave. Your confession of who is Jesus Christ is important to you. You will not confess that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Saviour until your sins are forgiven, and you are born again.
Everyone shall say after me, Our Father, in the name of Jesus Christ I come to You, I believe that Jesus Christ is who the Bible says He is, and I repent of my sin, forgive me my sins, I believe that Jesus Christ died for me and rose again, and I believe that He is coming quickly. I receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. Amen.
Abraham Job and Abigail were returning home together. Abraham asked her why she chose the name Rapid Life. She said to him that brevity of life made her think that life is too fast. They were full of joy. They were married and fulfilled God’s will for their lives.
