WHAT ABOUT JESUS CHRIST?
READ REVELATIONS 1:1--8,12--17
As of 2010, the latest year for which figures are available, there are an estimated 2.2 billion Christians around the world. They represent a third of the world's population and are geographically widespread with the Americas boasting of the largest number and the highest proportion of Christians. The number of Christians worldwide has risen in the last century from an estimated 600 million in 1910 to over 2 million in 2010.
What about this Jesus who is called the Christ?
By world standards, Jesus would be a failure. He died from a capital crime punishment--judged by a panel of judges. He lived for 33 years in poverty, working in a very low paying carpenter job, He taught for three years and gathered followers, but all left Him when authorities arrested Him. He died between two thieves and was buried in a borrowed grave.
What were the distinctive things that raised Him from simply a failed
local popular leader like many others.
TO THE LEADER TODAY WITH 2.2 M. AND THAT HAS HAD THIS GROWING FOLLOWING FOR 2000 YRS OF PERSECUTION?
What happened?
What happened was what followed His death.
What happened--happened after His resurrection and during His post-death-resurrection ministry.
One person who knew Jesus well is John the Apostle\!
(John the Apostle was one of Jesus's first followers)
JOHN WITNESSED JESUS's LIFE FROM HIS START TO HIS ASCENSION!!
Read John 1:35-39
Close to 70 years later J , still following Jesus writes this
Read 1 JOHN 1:1-10
WHY DID JOHN WRITE THIS FOR YOU?
READ JOHN 20:30-31
