This document is a sermon about Jesus Christ given at the Jackson Street Church of Christ. It discusses how Jesus was fully God but also fully human. It examines Jesus' humanity through his physical experiences as a humble, poor, weary, lonely, and hungry man. It also explores Jesus' spiritual qualities as a praying, mediating, sinless, compassionate, and seeking man who loved others. The sermon urges listeners to imitate Jesus, follow his example, be conformed to his image, and walk as he walked. It asks if they have truly "come to see" and know Jesus as the man he was.
1 and 2 Chronicles were written as the exiled nation of Israel returned after 70 years to begin rebuilding the temple. Chronicles was written to show the centrality of God and that the blessings of God require obedience to His law. The books describe many of the same events as 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings but the focus in on Judah and the temple. It also describes one of the greatest acts of repentance and forgiveness in the Bible.
What would our world be like had Christ never lived? What if He had not died or rose again? Unbelievers face a chaotic world without the benefit of Jesus and his peace.

The redemptive work of GOD-how our Abba , Lord Yeshua and Holy Spirit, PLAN OF REDEMPTION as each of the presence of the Lord JESUS is clearly shown in each book of the Scriptures. Maranatha!
In this thought-provoking and stimulating message we consider why God had to become a man and other related questions: Why did infinte God have to come as a feeble human being? Why a gruesome Cross? What about before and after? What about other groups of people? Would God need to Incarnate multiple times?
People will say, "why does God even allow us to disobey him in the first place? Wouldn’t the world be so much better if he didn’t?" But at the same time, it is an opportunity for him to show His redemptive power, which is more than He could have done if we never needed to be rescued in the first place.

Influential Puerto Rican Women (Part 1)Morayma Reyes
As we say goodbye to National's Women's History Month, Morayma would like to reflect on some of the most influential women who are of Puerto Rican origin. The work and precedent set by these women has inspired Morayma to work harder and pursue a career in the Medical field. She is currently working as the Associate Professor in the Pathology Department at the University of Washington.
Agape is godly love, phileo is brotherly love, Storge is family love, Eros is sexual love, Eros is not used in the bible. Peter and his denying the Lord three times and he is asked by Jesus two times if he loves Him with Agape love. Peter responds with phileo love. The third time Jesus asked him if he loved him with phileo love. It grieved Peter that he asked him the third time with phileo rather than agape. Why is agape love so difficult for us?

Day of Reckoning: You can run... Genesis 31:22-55Ed Sullivan
Your past generally DOES catch up with you. How do you handle it? Many if not all of our problems are our own doing by not handling situations the right way.
John 1:14 Christ became flesh for us, He became poor for us, he became obedient to the point of death for us, He became sin for us, He became the author of eternal salvation for us, He became the firstfruits of those who had died for us, He became the chief cornerstone for us, He became wisdom from God for us. He became all of these things for us so that we might become a new creation for Him.
God gave us His Word for a purpose. God wants us to be with Him in heaven. To do this we must change from serving Satan to serving God. God gave His Word so we would know how to live our lives. God gave His Word so we would change.
Ephesians 3:14-21 God's blessings, He settled may largest debt - sacrifice, he satisfied my deepest need - forgiveness, he provided my greatest desire - guidance, he prepared my highest longing - heaven.
a savior implies a need, hope for deliverance, a better way of life, and responsibility on our part, Luke 2:6-14. Jesus was born into this world to be a savior.
We serve a powerful God who is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we ask or think. But we must be His children to receive these blessings. You must believe, repent , confess and be baptized to become his child.
Luke 5:1-6. Peter was discouraged from fishing all night and catching nothing. When Jesus told him to try again, Peter said he would just because the Lord told him to. Are there things in our lives which discourage us and yet we should do it just because Jesus said to do it?
In a world with massive commercialization of religion, mass marketed spirituality, moral relativism, a distaste for absolutes and a plethora of other philosophies, millions pause to celebrate Christmas, which literally, is the birth of Jesus Christ, that took place about 2000 years ago. But why Jesus? Why is Jesus relevant or even important? Why is His mark on human history so indelible? Why should you give Jesus a fair hearing and serious consideration? Here are four reasons.

Hebrews 9:24-28. A comparison of the first and second comings of Christ. the hope of the world. His Body, His attitude, His death, His word and teachings, the purpose, His relationship to the lost, the anticipation, those who saw Him, those who confessed Him, the dead raised,
Genesis 47:13-15 Now there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished because of the famine. 14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. 15 So when the money failed in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For the money has failed." There are a number of reasons that money fails.
I beseech you – beg, urge, encourage, appeal
By the mercies of God – compassion
Present your bodies a living sacrifice – as opposed to a sacrifice of death
Holy, Acceptable to God – pure, without spot or blemish
Your reasonable service – since Christ died for us we should live our lives for him. 2 Corinthians 5:15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
John 3:16 is the most quoted and most remembered scripture from the bible.
Did you know that there are a number of other 3:16 verses that relate to and are very important to our spiritual lives and our living for Jesus?
Tonight we are going to look at some of those 3:16 scriptures.
Philippians 1:9-11 And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ, 11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
Fear is common to all. We all fear something. Some fear is God given. Children come into this world with a fear of heights and of loud noises. Some fears are there to protect us from physical harm: snakes, darkness, suffocation, being burned, death, etc. In christians, most fear is a tool of satan
Brotherly love has amazed many people throughout the centuries. Love of the brethren is commanded by God. Brotherly love mus be worked at to achieve. problems in the church are either directly or indirectly connected to lack of love for one another. love is the key to a growing or even a surviving church.
Jesus makes it very clear that we need to forgive others in order to be forgiven ourselves by God. Forgiveness is a key to having successful relationships. we will look at nine roadblocks to forgiveness from the book, "From Anger to Intimacy"
in Galatians chapter 3 Paul contrasts salvation under the Law of Moses with the salvation we have through Jesus. Galatians 3:22-29 is full of truths regarding our true position as sons of our loving Father. We will look at 8 things which our faith in Christ will cause us to become.
We are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works. We are blessed for doing God's work. We are to speak and do. Faith without works is dead. Faith is shown by our works.
Jonah is a book about god's desire to save the lost and man's role in that. there are some great lessons taught in the book of Jonah. We will look at questions Jonah was asked in the book and ask those questions of ourselves.
we all need motivation at times. what motivates you? Paul said 5 things to the brethren at Rome to motivate them to continue their service no matter how great the suffering became. the good always outweighs the bad. the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. God's providence works for us. Judgment is on our behalf. the love of God is on our behalf.
Repentance is a change in your allegiance, your expectations, your values, your priorities, your mission and your morals. can you say there has been a change in your life since you met the Lord?
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus would be called or known as wonderful. Wonderful in His birth. Wonderful in His miracles. Wonderful in His teachings. Wonderful in His resistance to sin. Wonderful in His accomplishing His work. Wonderful in His fulfilling prophecies. Wonderful in His sacrifice. Wonderful in His resurrection. Wonderful is His Name.
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus would be called or known as Mighty God. Prophecies said he would be God. John said He was Creator and God. Jesus claimed to be God. Thomas said He was God. Paul said He was Creator. Paul called Him God. John said Jesus was the True God.
Isaiah 9:6-7 His name will be called or He would be known as counselor. He is a counselor who understands your struggles. He is a counselor who cares for you. He is a counselor who is committed to you.
I John 2:28-3:3 Tests for Christians. Do you abide in Christ? Do you practice righteousness? Who knows you? Are you a child of God? Are you pure, just as He is pure? What is your identity?
I John 4:1-6 tests for christians 3 - the test of false teaching. Bluffing your way. Do you confess the Son? Do you listen to the Son? Do you obey the Son? Do you pass the test?
Ephesians 3:14-21 How big is your God? The ability of my God is boundless. The ability of my God goes beyond my prayers. The ability of my God is beyond my ability to imagine. The ability of my God is manifested in the lives of His people. The ability of my God is seen through His glorious church. The ability of my God is eternal.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. John 4:27-30 And at this point His
disciples came, and they marveled that
He talked with a woman; yet no one
said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why
are You talking with her?" (28) The
woman then left her waterpot, went her
way into the city, and said to the men,
(29) "Come, see a Man who told me all
things that I ever did. Could this be the
Christ?" (30) Then they went out of the
city and came to Him.
4. COME SEE A MAN

which was also in Christ Jesus, (6) who, being

bondservant, and coming in the likeness of
men.
B. What kind of man was Jesus?

a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to

Him the name which is above every name, (10) that at
the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in
heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the
earth, (11) and that every tongue should confess that
Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
• Acts 8:32-33 The place in the Scripture which he read
was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And
as a lamb before its shearer is silent, So He opened
not His mouth. (33) In His humiliation His justice was
taken away, And who will declare His generation? For
His life is taken from the earth."
6. I. A PHYSICAL MAN

our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was
rich, yet for your sakes He became poor,
that you through His poverty might become
rich.

came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow

nowhere to lay His head."

came to a city of Samaria which is
called Sychar, near the plot of ground

is with Me.

"Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" that is, "My
God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

E. A HUNGRY MAN
• Luke 4:1-2 Then Jesus, being filled with the

they had ended, He was hungry.

F. A JOYFUL MAN
• John 15:11 These things I have spoken to
you, that My joy may remain in you, and
that your joy may be full.

away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to
pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there.

Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ
Jesus, (6) who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be
testified in due time,

covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks
better things than that of Abel.
12. II. A SPIRITUAL MAN

Priest who cannot sympathize with our
weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we

become the righteousness of God in Him.

your faults, you take it patiently? But when

example, that you should follow His steps:
