DECEMBER 05  THE JESUS QUESTIONS  JQ#33  

“Eli, Eli lama sabachthani? that is, My God, My God, 

why have You forsaken Me?”  (Matthew 27:46)

LIVING FOR JESUS - Daily Prayer   

JESUS, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom Come, Lord, 

Precious Lamb of God forgive us when we fall back into the world 

that You came to free us from! Lord, You said we are to be “in” the

 world but not “of” the world and I pray for discernment to know the

 difference that I may witness to Your Glory and seek none for myself. 

Jesus, so often I find myself saying things and dropping Your Name

 and have missed the True Purpose of calling on Your Holy Name 

for it is never about promoting self! Lord, guide me in Your Light 

and keep always in my heart Your Truth that when I speak that You

 will be heard and Your Peace will be with men.    

AMEN

DECEMBER 05  THE JESUS QUESTIONS

Jesus is about to take His Place on the cross, one single event that will

 forever change the course of history as no single event had ever done

 or will ever do!!! When the written history of mankind is reviewed there

 will always be the Bible and the story of Salvation and this single event

 of Jesus being crucified on the cross has no comparison in all the 

other books ever written in the history of the world. 

Time has been divided into AD (anno Domini) and BC (before Christ) 

with AD being taken from the full original Latin phrase

 “anno Domini nostri Jesu Christi”

 (meaning “in the year of our Lord Jesus Christ”) 

so as long as “time is recorded” then the life of Jesus will have to 

be acknowledged because nothing can change the Truth that for

 these several thousand years now that the life of Jesus has been

 the world standard for keeping a record of world history. 

All the libraries of the world would have to be purged and every Bible

 destroyed just to begin trying to refer to life without referencing 

Jesus Christ! 

That single event will NEVER happen again and therefore no single 

individual will ever accomplish what Jesus did in 33 years on this earth.

 The fact that Jesus was sentenced to death by crucifixion which was

 prophesied hundreds of years before crucifixion was even used was

 another historical fact that will never be reproduced in the history of mankind

 because God and only God knows the future and has complete control

 of the events that occur, therefore even if a great conspiracy arose

 and had the following of all men, then those living at the beginning 

of the conspiracy would have to somehow come up with a scenario

 that a 1000 years after they wrote the details of the conspiracy that

 the conspirators would have to invent something that would somehow 

use the enemies of the conspiracy to prove the validity of the conspiracy? 

This scenario of enemies being used to prove themselves wrong is 

ludicrous but it is exactly what happened with Jesus Christ 

BECAUSE his VIRGIN BIRTH, LIFE, DEATH BY CRUCIFIXION,

 BURIAL, and RESURRECTION 

were predicted thousands of years earlier and were accomplished not

 by those who were following Him but were brought about by those who

 could only be classified as being against Him, why else would they 

sentence Him to death on a cross just as it had been written of the

 Jewish Messiah when they were trying to prove that Jesus

 was “NOT” the Messiah?  Today some will claim Jesus is a myth 

but never in the history of the world did the world change the way

 time is recorded because of a “myth” — 

Jesus walked the earth, was a Jew, and was crucified on a cross

 BECAUSE HE IS THE SON OF GOD!!! 

Matthew recorded this single event with simple detailed Truth:

 “And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, 

that is to say, Place of a Skull, they gave Him sour wine 

mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, 

He would not drink. Then they crucified Him, and divided 

His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled 

which was spoken by the prophet. 

‘They divided My garments among them, 

and for My clothing the cast lots.’” 

(Matthew 27:33-35) 

This single event has been recorded in every single Bible ever published

 and is still being put into print today. The Bible has sold more copies

 than any other book in history and will never be overtaken as the 

number 1 selling book of all time so therefore there NEVER will be

 a single event, spoken of by acknowledged prophets that will occur

 thousands of years after the prophecy and that event will come 

about exactly as written by the prophet yet accomplished by the 

actions of those opposing the prophecy — and then the event, though

 unpopular as it was with the world powers at the time, would  be written

 and published year after year and the world powers could not suppress it — 

these facts surrounding this single event of

 

Jesus and His Death on a Cross 

IS in itself the

 PROOF that JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!!
