:rolleyes: Move along…

ANYWAY…

Jesus is the Third Person of the Trinity - the creator of the universe, the Son to the Father Who is of all things. He is God.

Jesus is the SECOND person of the trinity.🙂
 
Jesus to me is someone who only lived 2,000 years ago but is probably one of the most misunderstood people in history. There has been so much said that it is probably impossible to know the real character of the man and his life.

I only see him as a man as I can’t make the leap - which seems like fantasy - to him being a son of a deity. That just seems a step to far. Or that he rose from the dead.
I find it interesting that a “random man” from 2,000 years ago has managed to occupy so much of your time. Do you throw a party every time the mailman delivers your mail?
 
In this Sunday’s R.C.I.A. session, I will pose the same question that Jesus asked Peter, *“Who do you say I am”? *What would be your response to Jesus’ question? Perhaps I can share it with the class.
Did you know how important it is to know Jesus?

He was born about 2 centuries ago in a little town called Bethlehem.
He was a carpenter until about 30 years old.
He gives people the answers to their questions about life.
He has made a large impact on everyone who listens to him.
Here are some of the things he said.

God knew you before you were born.
He created you to be happy.
We were put here on this earth for a short while.
God sent his only natural son,Jesus, to help us.
Everyone who does as Jesus asks will go to heaven.
At death, our body dies, but our soul spirit lives on.
The soul spirit will go to heaven if we have done what Jesus asks.
At the end of the world, Jesus will raise our bodies for heaven too.
Heaven is a place of perfect peace, love, and happiness, forever.

He came to this earth because he loves you and me.
He gave his life to do this because he cares.
Please read Mathew’s gospel in the New Testament in the Bible.

Wishing you God’s peace and joy.
Your guardian angel.

Ps. Commit your life to Jesus today.
Lord Jesus, I give you my life.
Lord Jesus, I take you into my heart.
(Jesus said that it is never too late.)
 
Jesus is the One I see being elevated by the celebrant at Mass. Jesus is the One who endured criticism, mockery and a most horrible death-all for us. Thank You Jesus!
 
I treat him as a best friend and lover. Him and the Father - I treat them both as my lovers and call them beautiful. The Holy Spirit too! (but that is already implied). Here I’d like to quote Mary, from Revelations of Saint Bridget: “Praise be to you, my son, you who are without beginning or end! You had a most noble and handsome body…”

well, there is that whole bridegroom of the soul symbolism…

It takes up my time because people close to me are affected by catholicism

If Jesus asked me this, I would say, “you are my Lord and my God.”

Inwardly, I feel that God is like a secret admirer because I do not fully know him yet as I am still quite immature in my faith and understanding of him. I recognize that he loves me and gives me gifts (grace). He is gradually revealing himself to me as I let go of sin and open myself up to a deeper relationship with him.
 
Jesus Christ is the one, true Lord and God of all and His prophet is St. John the Baptist. No greater prophet exists because he is the prophet of the Most High Jesus Christ.
