Who Jesus is?

[ThomasMathewP]

Here is one simple man in trouble. He is a human. He lives his life as taught and shown by his parents. What has happened to him so as to be redeemed? People shouts Jesus is the Redeemer or Savior or such. Whence he has been in such a situation that he needs to be redeemed or be saved? Unless he knows he is in real trouble, who is Jesus for him and what he may except from Jesus? The created world truly is awaiting for the arrival of the true Evangelist who shall fold up all fake belief and carry the lambs to the Eternal Freedom as offered by the Lord God.

Here is one simple man in trouble.

Why is he in trouble and what kind of trouble are you talking about?

He is a human. He lives his life as taught and shown by his parents. What has happened to him so as to be redeemed?

He was born lacking sanctifying grace (in original sin), just like all of us. He needs to be redeemed in order to be restored to sanctifying grace.

People shouts Jesus is the Redeemer or Savior or such. Whence he has been in such a situation that he needs to be redeemed or be saved?

See my last response. Each of us has an inclination to sin, even if it’s only venial sin, but we all have that.

Unless he knows he is in real trouble, who is Jesus for him and what he may except from Jesus?

He may not know that he needs to be baptized, but if he realizes he is a flawed human being, like everyone else, he may want to be made whole and holy. Jesus can give him those things if he cooperates with the grace God has given him, and God gives grace enough to everyone. We only need to live by the natural law God has put into every human heart, if we have never heard of Jesus. Jesus’ death and resurrection redeemed us all, but we need to “work out our salvation with fear and trembling.”

The created world truly is awaiting for the arrival of the true Evangelist who shall fold up all fake belief and carry the lambs to the Eternal Freedom as offered by the Lord God.

Well, the world has been given the true evangelist in Christ’s one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. It is in her that we find the eternal freedom offered by Our Lord God.

Jesus Christ Is Our Father’s Simple Plan for Salvation Since Before Time Began!

Jesus asked the apostles who do they say He is. Peter replied"Thou art the Son of God, the Messiah. Jesus said “Flesh and blood had not revealed this to you but My Father” Therefore I say to you “Thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my Church and evil forces will not prevail against it” Matthew 16:16 The key to understanding who Jesus is , is a gift of grace. It was not by human intelligence or argument that prompted Peter to answer. Peters’ faith in Jesus , he was the first to reply, made him the representative of Christ on earth. Jesus is the foundation of the church. Like Peter we too become by faith in Jesus the representatives of Christ on earth. It is interesting to note the "the Spirit was not given until Jesus was glorified. No one can come to Jesus unless the Father calls him, and no one can go to the Father except through Jesus. It was by grace we are saved not by human works so that no one can take the credit that belongs to Jesus alone This glorification of Jesus must take place in our minds and hearts, when we acknowledge who He is before we can experience the release of His Spirit in our lives. St Paul speaks of the pre-eminence of Jesus. We were created through Him, by Him and for Him Deo gratias! It is impossible to please God without faith.

Trouble? Man is born into it! I again stress on the question, “What did so happen to man as to get redeemed? Yes, if he realizes, only if he realizes that he is a flawed human being, he may wish to be renewed into a new creation. There is no Church on earth which can redeem mankind because any Temple, Mosque, Synagogue or a house can do the same but in the name of Jesus the anointed Christ.
When I stress on the arrival of an Evangelist I’m on Rev. 14:6-7”…And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters."
Jesus did doubt once,“When the Son of Man comes back will He see faith on Earth?”

Yes, God, alone, saves. The Church only leads us to Him.

He wasn’t expressing doubt–it was a rhetorical question.

 

[ThomasMathewP]

It’s ever true, “God, alone, saves. The Church only leads us to Him.”
But the common intuition goes as “Let anyone lead you to, the Church only saves”
To my quote, “Jesus did doubt once,’ When the Son of Man comes back will He see faith on Earth?’ "
I was consoled by,” He wasn’t expressing doubt–it was a rhetorical question.”
I opted for the the forum,’ Spirituality’ where there is no prayers but praises; no interpretations to scripture but sharing of the Will/Word of the living God revealed to His sons; and no mediator but Jesus to Yahweh the Ever-Living Self!

If by this bolded part you mean that no one can intercede for us but Jesus, you are mistaken.

Christ is the one mediator of our redemption–most certainly, and there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved.

But, anyone may intercede for/pray for another person. I can pray for you to the Father and you can pray for me. Yes? If Jesus were the only one who could intercede for us, no one could pray for anyone else, but we know that’s not true.

If you mean that the Saints in heaven cannot intercede/pray for us, again you are wrong. Jesus himself told us that the dead are not dead, but alive:

Mt. 22:33b “He is not God of the dead, but of the living.”

Mk. 12:27 “He is not God of the dead, but of the living; you are quite wrong.”

The Church from the earliest times believed in and still believes in the Communion of Saints because Jesus assured us that the dead are alive with God and not dead.

Quote: What did happen to man to be redeemed? Gen 3:1-29 covers the fall of man tempted by Satan, to pride. Luke l0-l9 and Isa 14:l2 covers Satans’ (Lucifer) fall through sin of pride. Heaven was closed. Man was helpless. Satan rules over sinners. Jesus says we are all sinners. The Father loved us, His creation.

He sent Jesus to redeem what was lost. Jesus by assuming human nature through Mary became God-man. Now we had a Mediator with the Father, a Bridge to God

Would Satan have Jesus crucified Jesus by sinful men if he knew He was God? Satan has a God given right to rule over sinful men, but not a perfect just man. Jesus was like us in every way except sin.

When Jesus died willingly, (this was God) Satan could not conceive in his proud arrogant mind that God could humble Himself before men. Satan wouldn’t do this even to God!

Now since Jesus blinded Satan by humbling Himself, Jesus, God -Man stipped Satan of his right over sinful man. There is a condition for salvation. Man must go to Jesus, He is the gate to the Father and Heaven.

Jesus roped a dope. I love it when our Hero conquers the enemy. "Who is like God!!!
