Finding Serenity Within a Chaotic World
Jesus Christ: Peace, Purpose and Salvation
The importance of Jesus within God’s eternal plan cannot be overstated.
-
He existed with God before the earth was created. (Proverbs, Chapter 8 Verses 22 - 31)
-
He freely gave his life on the cross for the forgiveness of sin; thus fulfilling God’s plan for salvation and offering Eternal Life for all those who come to Jesus in baptism.
-
He will lead the heavenly army of angels against the armies of Satan at Armageddon and defeat them; throwing the Beast (the Antichrist) and the false profit into the lake of fire. (Revelation, Chapter 19, Verses 11 - 21)
By offering his life on the cross for all the world’s sins, Jesus was exalted to sit at the right hand of God.
Jesus offers you:
A. PEACE:
Matthew, Chapter 11, Verses 28 - 30: Jesus said,
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and My load is light.”
John, Chapter 16, Verse 33: Jesus said,
“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation but take courage; I have overcome the world.”
Philippians, Chapter 4, Verse 7: Paul, a disciple of Jesus said,
“And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
