Must read!!! Please read!!! Who is Jesus Christ really? Some say he is a prophet? Some say he was just a man? Some say he is the Son of God? Let see some verses that will let us understand Jesus Christ. In the Old Testament there is only one God and beside Him there is no other, He said I am the first and the last as stated with these verses: Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isaiah 48:12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. The question is who is this God the Lord the King of Israel? The redeemer? The Lord of hosts?? Who is this God who was communicating and conversing with his people even of old times? Some say this is the father the God of Israel. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.. since Jesus Christ was not yet arrived at that time. Now let us refer to these bible verses that will let us understand who was that God?? We can see it to the last book of the bible in the book of Revelation. Let see some revelation. Revelation 1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: Revelation 1:18 I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. John the beloved, the disciple of Jesus Christ who was in a form of a spirit, when he saw Jesus Christ he was fearful and fell at Jesus feet as dead. And Jesus said, Fear not; I am the first and the last: Take note Jesus said I am the first and the last? So it is now clear that He was the God who spoke in the book of Isaiah who said I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Is it really Jesus who is speaking with John at that time? Let see Revelation 1:18 I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, who was this who lives? And was dead? And live again? None other but Jesus Christ our savior. You might ask where is the name Jesus Christ in that verses? OK, here is satisfy you. Let’s go to the last book of the bible and to the last chapter. Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Revelation 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whore mongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loves and makes a lie. Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. With these verses Jesus is speaking, again He said I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Alpha is a Greek word for beginning and Omega is a Greek word for end or last. He make mention again that He was , the first and the last. And lastly He introduced His name at Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. The offspring of David, before Jesus came He was prophesied to come. Let’s refer to Isaiah 9:6. Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. Prophet Isaiah prophesied for unto us a child is born, a son is given. His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God? It is now clear that Jesus is God. And also He shall be called The everlasting Father, the prince of peace. Upon the throne of David and upon His kingdom. Jesus said at revelation 22:16 that He was the root and offspring of David. Root then to the offspring? Is it this prophesy fulfilled or not? Absolutely it was fulfilled. And there is many thing to be fulfilled. Do you now understand who is Jesus Christ? You might say Jesus is not God, He has a mother. Jesus never called Mary His mother, his disciples did but Jesus did not. Let’s refer to John 2:1-4. John 2:1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: John 2:2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. John 2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. John 2:4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. Note: How did Jesus called Mary at John 2:4? Women? It is now clear that Jesus never called Mary as His mother. God has no mother; He uses Mary just to fulfill his plan. The plan of salvation for mankind. Before Mary , David, Jacob, Isaac and Abraham, Jesus was already existing. Lets refer to John 8:58. John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. What Jesus said? Verily, Verily or truly, truly. What Jesus wants to say in this verse that this saying is true!! Before Abraham was, I am!! He was existing before Abraham was, before Mary was. Jesus Has no Mother, and God has absolutely no Mother. This is another verse to understand Jesus Christ. This is how His disciple call Him. Let us refer to John 20:27-28. John 20:27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. John 20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. Thomas who is also called the “Doubting Thomas” one of the disciples of Jesus Christ, when Jesus raised from dead and now he saw Him personally , he was so doubtful, unbelieving and faithless. Now when Jesus talked to him, Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. Notice how Thomas did call Jesus? My Lord and my God…. Thomas was acknowledging that Jesus is his Lord and his God. Here are other verses to understand Jesus Christ. How he humbled Himself for us, how He suffered for us, how he labored for us, and how He died for us. Just to save a wretched, crooked and pervert man as we are. Let’s refer to Philippians 2:5-8 Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Philippians 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Philippians 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. What things apostle Paul mention about Jesus Christ? being in the form of God? So Jesus is God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God? Jesus Christ is not a robber to be equal with God, because He Himself is God. But made himself of no reputation? Jesus Christ humbles himself for you! and took upon him the form of a servant? Jesus Christ humbles himself again for you! , and was made in the likeness of men? Who is Jesus Christ before He was made in the likeness of men?? Jesus Christ was spirit before and have no flesh and now made in the likeness of men. he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.? Do you see now how He humbled for us? As God himself took away who He is, who He was, and He would be just for you. Many people say that Jesus Christ was just a man, a prophet, a teacher and a perfect example how live a life with God. It is all true, and we have nothing to argue with that. Many bible verses will support that Jesus Christ is a man, a prophet. But the question is??who is Jesus Christ before He became a man????a prophet??? Who is Jesus Christ before?? Are we going to neglect all the numerous bible verses that telling us that Jesus is God? Are we? it’s off to you brothers and sisters. Remember what Jesus Christ told us about the last day. Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Matthew 24:25 Behold, I have told you before. Remember that Jesus Christ established His church first at Jerusalem starting with His twelve disciples 2014 years ago…..That church was not destroyed, dissolved or even perished. Because Jesus Christ the first church founder in Jerusalem, He promised: Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Jesus said.I will Build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Hell shall not prevail, it will not be destroyed even the true Christians are persecuted in the day of Jesus Christ. So who is your church founder???

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. . We are in the last days brothers and sisters...I pray that this would help. Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheeps clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Many that leads to destruction and walk there in, only few that leads to life and few there be that find it.....Just like in the days of Noah...only 8 souls was saved...thats the meaning of few in Mathew 7:14...That why Jesus Christ said in Matthew 7:21-23: Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Dont believe if they cast out devils,prophesied and do miracles and wonderful works...for they shall deceived many....and this is happening today...2014 years ago Jesus Christ prophesied these will happen. Matthew 24:25 Behold, I have told you before. -Jesus Christ
