Merry Christmas
Matthew 16:13 - 18 (NKJV)
When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" So they said, "Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah, or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say I am?" Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you but My Father who is in heaven. And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it."
"Who do you say I am?" Jesus still asks each of us the same question today, and all too often the answers are vague, indifferent, or simply nonexistent
1 John 5:5 (NKJV)
Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
Jesus is the difference between life and death, between overcoming and being destroyed (John 10:10) and the truth is as simple as making the right choice - falling in love with Jesus and keeping your love of Him fresh in your life
Abba, Father You gave us Jesus and we are forever thankful, in Him was life, and the life was the light of men (John1:4), may our lives be the light that penetrates the darkness of the world so that all will fall in love with Jesus and we will be essential building blocks of Your church; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
