Who is Jesus

“More than two thousand years ago there was a Man born contrary to the laws of life.  This Man lived in poverty and was reared in obscurity.  He did not travel extensively.  Only once did He cross the boundary of the country in which He lived.

 He possessed neither wealth nor influence.  His relatives were inconspicuous and had neither training nor formal education.  He never wrote a book, never founded a college, but all the schools put together cannot boast of having as many students. 

He never marshaled an army, nor drafted a soldier, nor fired a gun; and yet no leader ever had more volunteers who have, under His orders, made more rebels stack arms and surrender without a shot fired.  He never practiced medicine, and yet He has healed more broken hearts than all the doctors far and near.  

The names of past proud statesmen of Greece and Rome have come and gone. The names of the past scientists, philosophers, and theologians have come and gone, but the name of this Man abounds more and more.  Though time has spread nineteen hundred years between the people of this generation and the scene of His crucifixion, yet He still lives. 

Herod could not destroy Him and the grave could not hold Him.  He stands forth upon the highest pinnacle of heavenly glory, proclaimed of God, acknowledged by angel, adored by saints, and feared by devils, 

as the living, personal, Christ, our Lord and Savior.” –
