WHY JESUS CHRIST WAS UNIQUE…
“And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.”
Jesus was born with a unique Birth. His Birth was first mentioned by the Lord Himself in (Genesis 3: 15.) “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” It was the first prophecy in the Bible from the mouth of God. It was the first promise of a Redeemer, a Savior. The place of His birth was also prophesied in Micah 5: 2. His birth was prophesied by both Major and Minor Prophets hundreds of years before he was born. His birth was unique.
Jesus was a man with a unique life. (John 8: 46). He was completely man but, He was sinless. His works and Ministry was unique. He heals and raised Lazarus from the dead. “He taketh away the sins of the world…” And He loves us in spite of our sinfulness. He cares for us and did miracles and still performing miracles.
Jesus was a man with the unique words. He spoke in parables, He rebuke people with love and compassion. He spoke with power. He caused the blind to see… He raised the dead… and took control of the nature with His words. (Luke 21: 33). The devil trembles at His word. We sing His words and we write songs, hymns, poems and quote His words. We get encouragement and convicted of our sins by His words.
Jesus was a man with a unique death. He died not for Himself but for us, for our sins. He died for the salvation of mankind. He died to give us hope. He died so we can live. He died, was buried and rose again the
third day and He’s coming back. (I Corinthians 15:1- 4)
