Meditation:

Most men are notable for one conspicuous virtue or grace: Moses for meekness, Job for patience, John for love. But in Jesus you find everything. – J. Oswald Sanders

Jesus is God spelling Himself out in language that man can understand. – S. D. Gordon

Alexander, Caesar, and Hannibal conquered the world but they had no friends… Jesus founded his empire upon love, and at this hour millions would die for him… He has won the hearts of men, a task a conqueror cannot do. – Napoleon Bonaparte

Scripture Reading: Colossians 1:15–20, TNIV Anny Ha, Kimberly Paulien

INTRODUCTION TO THE SERMON

A sermon series on Jesus… What a delight! Today we begin a journey that will be far too brief. After all, how could one ever hope to be able to adequately describe or define Jesus? 

So what we will do is simply to consider some of the ways in which Jesus is the ultimate answer to a few of the deepest needs, questions and situations of our lives.

Consider what a few have said about him.

Christ is a substitute for everything, but nothing is a substitute for Christ. – H. A. Ironside

Jesus Christ is a God whom we approach without pride, and before whom we humble ourselves without despair. – Blaise Pascal

Since He looked upon me my heart is not my own. He hath run away to heaven with it. – Samuel Rutherford

Jesus was God and man in one person, that God and man might be happy together again. – George Whitefield

Jesus Christ, the condescension of divinity, and the exaltation of humanity. – Phillips Brooks

To read such statements leaves me with an ever deeper yearning to know him better.

Yours as we seek to know him.
