The Thoughts of a Thinker

My reflections as I run the race

Who Is Jesus, Really?

Jesus said:

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”          John 14:6

What does this mean though? Why do we need to go to the Father? Why do we need Jesus?

In Romans 5 in the Bible, the Apostle Paul says this:

“Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.”      Romans 5:18-19

Paul is saying we are all sinners. That means we have all done wrong against God because we descend from Adam who did wrong against God in the Garden of Eden, we are all sinners. But the hope and great message is we can be made right with God through His son, Jesus Christ.

Here John Piper explains the Gospel of Jesus Christ in 6 minutes and how this message has affected him recently. He also explains how this can affect you and me right now and everyday for the rest of our lives.
