Who Is Jesus?

Jesus is the most important person in the whole Bible. He's the most important person ever to walk this earth. He's the most important person for you to know. He's the King our world needs, the Hero all our stories reveal we long for, and the Savior we desperately need.

The Greatest Man in History

The Greatest Man in history, Jesus, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared him. He won no military battles, yet he conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified him. He was buried in a tomb, yet he lives today.

The Names of Jesus
Verse
Matthew 1:20-23 ESV

But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:

 “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).

The Name of Jesus

What's the significance of the name of Jesus? "The power in the name is the person behind the name. In biblical times, names meant something."

Why Do We Call Him "Lord Jesus Christ"?

The title Lord Jesus Christ summarizes all of his redemptive work. Lord describes his sovereign deity; Jesus (the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew name Yeshua; “God Saves”) describes his saving death and resurrection; Christ (“anointed one”) describes him as the King who will defeat God’s enemies and rule over the redeemed earth and the eternal state.

7 "I AM" STATEMENTS OF JESUS

Verse
Revelation 19:11-16 ESV

Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.

The Secret of Aslan

Aslan is the most captivating character in "The Chronicles of Narnia," and perhaps C.S. Lewis wrote him that way intentionally to point to the glory of Jesus.
