THE REAL JESUS

 *For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you may well put up with it.*
2 Corinthians 11:4

Paul tells the Christians in Corinth that it is possible to create their own Jesus. There are different versions of Jesus, usually tailored to fit our own particular needs or selfish interests. It wasn’t unique to Corinth.

It is easy to start with a sense of our needs, wants or aspirations, and design a Jesus who meets them. How do we know the real Jesus?
For a start, we don’t have to invent Him, for everything we know about Him in Scripture is sufficient for all we need to know.

He was born, lived, acted and interacted with people, died, was raised and ascended to heaven. *He not only taught the truth, He embodied the truth and is the truth.*

Everything we need to know about God, we see in Jesus. Many people are encouraged to close their eyes and ask Jesus to reveal Himself to them. No, don’t do that. Open your eyes and read the revelation of Christ that He has
given in His Word. As you do so, in a spirit of humility, He will step out of the Bible to become a living companion.

 _*If you’re going to look for Jesus, look for Him where He has revealed Himself....In the Scriptures.*_

Are you getting to know the Christ of the Word?

PRAYER: Beloved in Christ, pray for the revelation of Christ through the Scriptures and for the spiritual interpretation of the Word of God.
