Who is Jesus? (What the Bible Really Says About Him)

The Promised Seed, Messiah, and Son of God

Who is Jesus? Jesus is the promised seed who would crush the head of the snake. He is the wonderful counselor, mighty God, everlasting Father, the Prince of.

Peace.

He is our salvation from sin, the Son of God in whom the Father is well pleased. He is the fulfillment of all the law and the prophets, the Son of David, a ransom for many, the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

He is the Son of Man who came to seek and save the lost. He is God, the Lamb of God, the light of the world, the Good Shepherd, the resurrection, and the life. He is the way, the truth, and the life. He is the vine apart from whom we can do nothing.

Christ the Cornerstone, Righteousness, and Head of the Church

He is the cornerstone by whose name we are saved. He is our righteousness, the firstborn among many brothers, our victory, our reconciliation with God. He is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its savior.

He is our ultimate example. He is the image of the invisible God, the creator of all things by whom all things hold together. He is preeminent, God's mystery in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

He is the one mediator between God and men, the heir of all things, through whom all things were created. He is the founder and perfecter of our faith, the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is the Holy Lord, our righteous advocate, the propitiation for our sins.

The Witness of Christ in the New Testament

He is love.

He is the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings.

Of the earth.

He is faithful and true, who judges and makes war in righteousness. He is the Word of God, King of kings and Lord of lords. Jesus is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, when we understand the text.
