Jesus is all you need
The power of forgiveness is immeasurable. Jesus challenged us as His followers to forgive others who have wronged or hurt us (Matt. 6:14–15; 18:21–35). That may seem like a simple act, but anyone who has struggled with pain and anger knows that it takes enormous power to authentically forgive—to lay aside one’s hurt and reach out to an offender with the embrace of a pardon. On the other side, forgiveness can release the wrongdoer from paralyzing guilt and even turn around the course of that person’s life (James 5:19–20).[1]
I am still kind of working on the forgiveness of the unsaved man. I do think it is not ever right to withhold the forgiveness of people. I think it is a command and you do it regardless of the other persons. Jesus forgiveness saved a man or two. I am going to send out the devoanal of John Macarthur and he said II am right on this one.
Who is Jesus? He is the Son that enlightens (Heb. 1:3), the Physician that heals (Lk. 4:23-24; 5:31), the Wall of Fire that defends (Ex. 13:21), the Friend that comforts (Jn. 15:14-15), the Pearl that enriches (Mt. 13:45-46), the Ark that supports (Gen. 6:18; Rev. 11:19) and the Rock to sustain under the heaviest of pressures (Deut. 32:18; 1 Cor. 10:4).
Jesus is the one that enlightens.
Heb 1 3 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.[2]
Jesus is the Glory of God and when you meet him you meet the God of all heaven and Hell. God made it for Jesus and Jesus upholds the whole creation. Jesus has made our sin debt nothing by dieing on the cross and he rose again. If one accepts Jesus that one is saved forever and Jesus comes into them and they are given Jesus forever. Jesus sat down because your salvation is done and heaven is yours. Jesus holds you by the word of his mouth.
Jesus can heal people. He healed many people on earth. Does that means he heals people today. Jesus can and does heal today if it is his will. Jesus healed to prove he was God on the flesh.
Jesus is a friend to you.
Jn 15 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. 14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. 15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. [3]
Jesus loved you so much that he did give his life for you. Jesus said that is the greatest love. Jesus wants to be your friend in a deep powerful way. He wants to hear from you and he wants to comfort you and be you’re all in all. Jesus wants your all so he can change you and grow you in a way the father God can use you. Jesus was the best friend you always wanted and I think you need him as one you can share all your life with. He is always going to love you and wants to love you no matter what.
Jesus is the pearl of great price. Having Jesus is better for me to have then anything of value. What does it profit a man to gain the entire world and end it in Hell? It is better to lose and give the entire world away and have Jesus on my life and in my life and to share his love.
Jesus can handle all your needs and hard times.
Cast your cares on Jesus for he cares for you. He does not wish you to walk alone he wants to be your care taker in life. He has time for you to pray to him and love on him.
