Who is Jesus?

Jesus Himself asked that question. Jesus asked His disciples “Who do people say I am?” The disciples answered, " Some say you are John the Baptist, some say Elijah, and other say Jeremiah, or one of the prophets." Then Jesus asked His disciples, “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Then Jesus said, “Blessed are you Simon Peter; for no man told you this, but my Father which is in heaven.”

People today also have their own answer to that question. But how can people really answer the question, unless they have read about Him. We hope this site will help you to find the answer to the question, “Who is Jesus?”

John the Baptist...Chapter 2... The Birth of John the Baptist



This lesson is taken from Luke 1:57-66

Now it was time for Elizabeth’s baby to be born, and it was a boy.  The word spread quickly to her neighbors and relatives that the Lord had been very kind to her, and everyone rejoiced with her.

When the baby was 8 days old, all the relatives and friends came for the customary ceremony.  They wanted to name the baby Zachariah, after his father.  But Elizabeth said, “No!  His name is John!”  “What?” the people said.  “There is no one in your family with that name.”

So they asked the baby’s father, by making gestures, what the baby name would be.   He motioned for some paper, and to everyone’s surprise he wrote down, “His name is John!”  Instantly Zechariah could speak again, and he began praising God.

Wonder fell upon the whole neighborhood, and the news of what had happened spread throughout the Judean hills.  Everyone that heard about what happened, thought about it, and they wondered what the child would be like when he grew up.  For the hand of the Lord was surely on him in a very special way.
