April 10, 2007 My Brief Summary of Jesus Jesus was present in spirit form at the beginning of creation, Rev 12, which took place between the 5th and 6th day. Jesus was sent to earth as a human for one purpose only and that was to carry the sins of the world and free us thereby giving eternal life to all that accepted and followed Him. John 3:16. He was conceived in Mary by the Holy Spirit and was born in human form some 2000 years ago. During the 30 years befor He started teaching, He was receiving guidance and knowledge from God as a human, much like we receive it today. After being baptised by John, He received the Holy Spirit ''God`s spirit''. During the 3 years Jesus taught and performed miracles, the Pharisees became increasingly jealous and confused by what was happening around them. Tho Jesus could be convicted of no crime, Jesus unsettled the Pharisees and He had to be removed. Tho Jesus was given a choice - to fulfil the prophecy or pull out, He opted to do God`s will, Matt 26:42. Jesus was arrested, beaten ''1 Pet 2:24'' and convicted. Thru all this, He still remained faithful and lived in forgiveness. He was crucified and died carrying all the sins of the world. Matt 27:46. The 3 days before His resurrection, Jesus went to hell and kicked Satan`s butt. Col 2:15 / Matt 12:40. God raised Jesus to life on the 3rd day where He now sits on the right hand side of God, acting as our Intercessor, 1 John 2:1. In a nutshell - It is thru Jesus death and resurrection that we are saved today. It is thru our faith in Jesus and our belief that Jesus died for our sins, and our belief and experience that Jesus is alive and lives in us that we know we will one day take our rightful place in heaven. For on the day that we accept Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Saviour, we die to sin and receive eternal life. Gal 2:19, 20.
