One of my boys asked me who is Jesus.
He prays to God (Yahweh) and his prayers are answered. He always has.
His girlfriend goes to a fundamentalist christian church where they pray to
Jesus (Yashua).
When I asked her about Jesus, she burst into tears. She doesn't know who He
is. It's just something they teach at Church.
I know all the catch phrase words we were taught at Sunday school about who
Jesus is and can repeat them from memory while singing "Just as I am" and
leading the sinners prayer but I realised I could not really answer their
question.
I could read more books but I was hoping to read a living epistle this time.
Who is Jesus and where does He fit in when you already have had a lifetime
relationship with God?

if you call yourself Christian....then
without Christ there is no Christian.
every one wants to make money on this earth
they interpret religious books in various ways to become rich followers of Yashua are one of them, when the world is coming to an end you will find many like these....

If Jesus is not God, then men have no Savior, since He could not forgive sin just by being a good man. Some say Jesus was a great and wise Teacher and good man, stopping short of calling Him God. Yet this great, wise, and good Teacher said that man is need of a Savior and that He is the only Savior men can come to for forgiveness of sin and salvation. If it is true that Jesus is not God, then He has deceived and misled people and declared as truth a lie. So if Jesus is not God, He is not even a good man.

Jesus is the son of God. He is the liaison between God and us. He said he was the way to Heaven. He is our savior. By allowing himself to be born of a human and live among us and finally dieing for us, he atoned our sins making it possible for us to live forever! We might die here on earth but I believe if we accepted Jesus and have done our best to follow him and obey the ten commandments we will be resurrected at the second coming and live with Jesus in heaven.
