*HERE HE IS!!! THE MAN WHO IS ALSO GOD. (JESUS CHRIST) WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT JESUS*. *Part 1*

Here is the illustration and analysis

A man and his son one day decided to gather ants together and carter for them. They prepared a very nice place for them and kept them there. They supplied all they needed including food, protection and everything that will make them happy. Because of the love they have for them, they instructed them not to come out from the place where they were kept lest they loose their life. This is because outside the place they were there poisons scattered around by their enemy. But the ants, having all they needed and lacking nothing disobeyed and came out from the place they were and ate the poison. These brought them to the point that they were so weak that could no longer climb back to the place where they were and they were left to die I. Their state.
Guess what!! The son told the Father. I will go down and live with the ants (in their weak form) and bring them back to their normal state. Not only to show them how to live obediently in the principles given to them. But also to save them.
Isn't that amazing? *That is exactly what Christ did for us*
We are just like ants in the eyes of the Lord. God gave Man everything and kept us in a good place, but Man rebelled against his simple command and it brought the human race the conditions we found ourselves.

*Who is Jesus unto you? Let us study more about Him*

*JESUS OUR REDEEMER*
The best description for Him is the one given by John the beloved. " Behold the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world" John 1:29. " And she shall bring forth a son and thou shall call him *JESUS*: for He shall save His people from their sin. Matt. 1:21 " For unto us a child is born unto us a son is given and the government shall upon His shoulder and His name shall be called wonderful, counsellor, the Almighty God, the everlasting Father the prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6. "For I know that my Redeemer liveth and that He shall stand at the later day upon the earth" Job 19:25.
These and many more verses from the scriptures shows that Christ is out *great Redeemer*, that came to this earth to save us at the point where we couldn't save ourselves.

*Why was Christ qualified and not any other person?*

1) HE IS OUR CREATOR
"God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets , hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, by whom also *He made the worlds*". Heb. 1:1,2
"For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in the earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones or dominions, or principalities, or powers, *all things were created by Him and for Him*". Col. 1:16
" 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*". Eph. 3:9.
All evidences in the Bible shows that the world was created by God through Christ. Paul called it a mystery. Christ is our creator that is one of the reasons why He was also qualified to save and redeem us because He owns us.

2) HIS EXISTENCE AS BOTH GOD AND MAN
One of the most striking revelation of Christ in the Bible is His dual nature of existence as both God and Man.
" In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him without Him nothing was made that was made. And the Word was made flesh and dwelth among us ( and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth". John 1:1-3,14; "Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation and took upon Him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of Men. Christ being our creator wasn't enough for Him to save us from the bondage of sin. He couldn't have saved us in His Godly nature only without become like us. He needed to be one of us as a human being to save us. Read Lev. 25:47-49; Heb. 2:14,15. For a slave to be redeemed, someone of the same family is required to do that and so therefore Christ had to become a member of the human race for Him to save us. What a great sacrifice!!!
He has been in existence before been given birth here on earth.
"Jesus said unto them verily verily I say unto you, before Abraham I AM" John 8:58 "And God said unto Moses I AM THAT I AM: and he said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM has sent me unto you". Ex. 3:14
He is the great I AM.
"I am the light of the world. I am the bread of life. I am the way, the truth, and the life." John 8:12; 6:35; 14:6.
