Understanding the Identity of Jesus: Insights and Perspectives

I  don’t know of a better time to talk Jesus, who is my Savior and Lord. This time of year, is so commercialized and the main focus is on Santa Claus; in symbolism he is completely opposite of Jesus. This means that Jesus came to give life and the devil came to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).

I can understand the world promoting Santa, but for the people of God to do it, this is totally out of line with the Word of God. I am going to tell anybody unashamedly who I identify as. He is my personal Savior and Lord, and I desire to honor Him to the fullest.

Who Jesus is to some people: Some say He is a prophet like Moses and Mohammad.

Jesus was in fact a prophet;

He predicted (prophesied) future events and some of them are happening right And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows (Matthew 24:4-8).

Jesus the High Priest

He ever lives to make intercession for us (Hebrews 7:25).

All the prophets, priests, and kings died and they are still dead, but Jesus Christ was the only one who died, and rose from the dead, never to die again. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death (Revelation 1:18).

Jesus, the King

Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.  And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son and shall call His name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David. And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there will be no end.” All the prophets, priests, and kings died and they are still dead, but Jesus Christ was the only one who died, and rose from the dead, never to die again (Luke 1:30-33).
