THE SAVED WORSHIP JESUS

This is a warning to all those who preach that a person can be saved by merely trusting in Jesus, and yet, fail to identify exactly Who the Jesus of the Bible is - born again believers recognize the Jesus Christ is King of kings and Lord of lords (Jn. 13:13; 20:28; Rom. 10:9; Rev. 19:16; etc.)!  The Jesus of Islam, Mormonism, Jehovah's Witnesses, and unfortunately, many mainline Christian denominations, is not the Jesus of the Bible!  I can say, like the Apostle John in 1 John 5:13, "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life...."  Here are just a few of the Bible verses that indicate exactly Who Jesus is - Jesus is God! 

Genesis 1:1 - "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."

Psalm 33:6 - "By the Word of the LORD (see Jn. 1:1-3, 14 below) were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth."

Isaiah 40:28 - "Hast thou not known?  Hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary?  There is no searching of His understanding."

John 1:1-3, 10, 14 - "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus), and the Word (Jesus) was with God, and the Word (Jesus) was God.  The Same (Jesus) was in the beginning with God.  All things were made by Him (Jesus); and without Him (Jesus) was not anything made that was made....He (Jesus)was in the world, and the world was made by Him (Jesus), and the world knew Him (Jesus)not....And the Word (Jesus) was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His (Jesus') glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father (Jesus - see Jn. 1:18; 3:16-18; 1 Jn. 4:9), full of grace and truth."

Ephesians 3:9 - "And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ."

Colossians 1:16-17 - "For by Him (Jesus) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him (Jesus), and for Him (Jesus):  And He (Jesus) is before all things, and by Him (Jesus) all things consist."

Hebrews 1:1-2 - "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son (Jesus), Whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by Whom also He made the worlds."

Revelation 4:11 - "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power:  for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created."

 
Salvation results from believing in the Jesus of the Bible - Period!
